The Brewery Creek gold deposit is located in the Tintina gold Provice in west-central Yukon, north-western Canada and is hosted by alkalic quartz monzonite sills.

Mineralisation is present in s heeted quartz veins with arsenopyrite, pyrite, pyrrhotite, scheelite, gold and Bismuth in a biotite granodiorite

Gold is principally found associated with arsenopyrite, occuring in arsenic-rich rims of pyrite and locally in veinlets of quartz-carbonate-pyrite- arsenopyrite. Late stibnite veins postdate the main gold event.

The deposit contains 13.3 Mt @ 1.4 g/t Au.
