The Ket East occurrence is located just north of the U.S.-Canada international border and approximately 3 kilometres west of Myers Creek.

The area is underlain by greenstone and greenschist metamorphic rocks of the Carboniferous to Permian Anarchist Schist and undivided volcanic rocks of the Eocene Penticton Group which have been intruded by syenitic to monzonitic rocks of the Eocene Coryell Plutonic Suite.

Locally, an outcrop of metasedimentary rock hosts gold values.

During 2008 through 2012, Grizzly Discoveries Inc. completed programs of geochemical (rock, stream sediment and soil) sampling, geological mapping and airborne and ground geophysical surveys on the Dayton-Sidley area of the Greenwood Property.

In 2010, a rock sample (10DCP101) assayed 1.69 grams per tonne gold (Dufresne, M. (2013-11-25): Technical Report for the Greenwood Gold Project).
