The CK19-11 showing is located about 350 metres southeast of the Moyie River and 425 metres east of Sundown Creek.

The area is underlain by a 3000- to 3500-metre-thick sedimentary sequence of alternating siltstones, argillites and quartzites of the Helikian Middle Aldridge Formation. Gabbro-diorite sills of the Proterozoic Moyie Intrusions) intrude the sequence. A sample of clear glassy quartzite with narrow clear silica veins containing sphalerite, pyrite and mauve quartz eye graded 0.21 per cent zinc, 0.02 per cent lead, and 0.8 gram per tonne silver (Sample CK19-11, Assessment Report 38387).

In 2019, total of 77 rock samples and 486 soil samples were collected on the SBA property on behalf of owner Craig Kennedy (Assessment Report 38387). The SBA property covered parts of the previous Cruz property claims that were explored in the 1990s and early 2000s. Samples in 2019 were collected in the area of the Cruz (082GSW066), Sunrise Surprise (082GSW091), and Spike (formerly Sun 4-5) (082GSW092). Soil samples were collected about 1 kilometre to the northeast and east-southeast of the Cruz MINFILE plot. Prospecting in 2019 was also done over a large area from west of Stone Creek east through Sundown and Sunrise creeks.

For related geological and work history information refer to Cruz (082GSW066), Sunrise Surprise (082GSW091), Sun 6 (082GSW117), and Spike (formerly Sun 4-5) (082GSW092).
