The Laws’ Camp properties are accessed by public roads from the Coquihalla Highway, northwest of Princeton B.C., north of the historical placer gold and platinum bearing Tulameen River.

The property includes a series of claims covering approximately 355 hectares (3.5 sq km). 

Mineralization consists of a layer of semi-massive to massive sulphides, consisting of pyrite, chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite, with minor galena and sphalerite (Minfile). They are extensively oxidized to limonite, hematite, malachite and azurite.

The property area is underlain by Upper Triassic schists and limestones which s strike northwest and dip 30 to 70 degrees southwest towards the contact with nearby Eagle Plutonic Complex. The upper part of this sequence is intruded by feldspar porphyritic dikes and sills. Stratabound massive sulphides are developed in this area, where noncalcareous pelitic schists grade into overlying calcareous schists and marbles.
 
A historical 4-metre chip sample taken across an exposure of limonite, hematite and malachite at the portal of an adit contained 0.205 %, 0.026 %, 0.115 % copper, 29.0 g/t silver and 0.18 g/t gold (Assessment Report 15419)
 
A historical chip sample was taken across 1.8 metres of massive pyrite, with blebs and disseminations of chalcopyrite, exposed in underground workings, assayed 0.69 g/t gold, 17 g/t silver and 1.26 % copper (Minister of Mines Annual Report 1929, page 279).
 
Similar mineralization is exposed in trenches on the Chicago showing, 200 metres to the south of the Liverpool, where pyrite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite occur in limestone dipping 25 to 30 degrees west.
 
The St. Lawrence Claim was staked in 1900 by Charles L. Law and Associates, and all the early work was done on both the St. Lawrence Claim and the nearby St. George Claim, consisting of two shafts, an adit, and open cuts.

The St. George Claim was explored by C. Law and the Similkameen Mining and Smelting Company between 1903 and 1913. A total of 27 tonnes were mined by C. Law in 1916, grading 34 g/t gold, 533 g/t silver and 0.394 % copper (Minister of Mines Annual Report 1960, Page 51). 
 
Supreme now controls the majority of the properties that comprised the historical Law’s Mining Camp.

An exploration program is being planned and will be announced in the future.
