The Maybe occurrence is located at an elevation of approximately 800 metres, on the south side of Crick Creek, west of the Kettle River Road.

Regionally, the area lies at western boundary of the north-trending Rock Creek graben, within metavolcanic rocks of the Late Paleozoic Wallace Formation (Anarchist Group). A north-northwest– trending Eocene fault, located to the immediate east, juxtaposes alkalic Eocene volcanic rocks of the Marron Formation against Wallace Formation metavolcanic rocks to the west. The Wallace Formation is intruded by diorite and granodiorite of the middle Jurassic Nelson plutonic suite.

Locally, a north-striking, steeply east-dipping, mineralized quartz vein within undifferentiated late Paleozoic Wallace Formation. The Wallace Formation is exposed as a small window within altered quartz diorite and granodiorite of probable middle Jurassic age that lies immediately west of an east-dipping Eocene normal fault that defines the western margin of the Rock Creek graben. The Wallace Formation is locally brecciated in the vicinity of the vein. The vein consists of pyrite, pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite, sphalerite, and minor chalcopyrite.

During 1938 to 1940, production totalled 443 tonnes, resulting in 9798 grams of gold, 17 ,075 grams of silver, 118 kilograms of copper and 39 kilograms of lead.

In 2006, a sample of rusty tuff from the adit assayed 1.82 grams per tonne gold and 22.0 grams per tonne silver (Property File - AOM Minerals Ltd. [2006-10-27]: Progress Report - Maybe Property).

In 1938, S. Berglund and L. Clery developed the property with 30 metres of stripping, a 6-metre adit and 37 metres of drifting. In 1939, the property was optioned to Bayonne Consolidated Mines Limited, who conducted diamond drilling. In 1940, it was optioned to Canadian Exploration, Limited; development consisted of 24 metres of drifting.

In 1994, Phelps Corporation of Canada, Limited conducted 40-line kilometres of soil sampling in the area. In 1997, Emjay Enterprises Ltd. optioned the property from Phelps Dodge Corp. and carried out some geological mapping, sampling, and an induced polarization survey, and, in 1999, the work continued with additional mapping, soil geochemical programs and a ground magnetic survey. In 2000, a program of rock and soil sampling, geological mapping, trenching and a 9.4 line-kilometre ground electromagnetic survey was completed.

In 2006 and 2007, OAM Minerals completed programs of reconnaissance prospecting, hand trenching, minor sampling and ground geophysical surveys.
