The Gold Show showing is located on a ridge separating Grassy and Granite Creeks, approximately 22 kilometres southwest of Nelson. The area has been extensively explored since the 1800's. The related, past producing, Rachel occurrence (MINFILE 082FSW299) is located 1.2 kilometres to the southeast.

Regionally, the area is underlain by the middle Jurassic Bonnington Pluton and by the Lower to Middle Jurassic Rossland Group volcanics. Locally, the Rossland Group is composed of the lower Jurassic Archibald formation, augite porphyry andesite flows, agglomerates, breccias and tuffs. The lower Jurassic Hall formation lies conformably on the Elise formation and is comprised of argillite, siltstone and conglomerate with minor volcanic rocks. The Middle Jurassic Bonnington Pluton is quartz diorite and is part of the Nelson Intrusive Suite. The Bonnington Pluton is flanked to the south and to the east by Rossland Group rocks.

Mineralization occurs locally as quartz veins carrying pyrite and trace galena with sericite and chlorite alteration.

In 2005, a lone rock sample of quartz containing pyrite, from a previously identified geochemical anomaly, returned 0.52 grams per tonne gold (Assessment Report 28204). Two years later, sampling of a 0.25 metre quartz vein returned values up to 2.43 grams per tonne gold (Assessment Report 29759).

In 2017, Sentinel Resources Inc. completed a program of prospecting, geological mapping, heavy mineral sediment sampling, rock sampling and magnetometer and induced polarization surveys on the area as the Pass property.
