It was formed on the easternmost point of the Wrangellia Terrane as a volcanic arc about 100 million years ago along a west-to southwest-dipping subduction zone.<ref>{{cite journal|title=Geochemical polarity of the Early Cretaceous Gambier Group, southern Coast Belt, British Columbia |publisher=NRC Research Press |last=Lynch |first=Gregory |url=http://rparticle.web-p.cisti.nrc.ca/rparticle/AbstractTemplateServlet?calyLang=eng&journal=cjes&volume=32&year=1995&issue=6&msno=e95-058 |date=2010-02-16 |accessdate=2010-02-16 }}{{dead link|date=January 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> This prehistoric volcanic arc is generally referred to as the '''Gambier arc''' or '''Gambier volcanic arc'''.
