The Miner Boy occurrence is located 750 metres northeast of the former McAllister mine (082KSW025), near the crest of London Ridge.

The Miner Boy group has been worked periodically since 1893, when first owned by Cummings, Adams and Niven. In 1902, the Miner Boy was Crown granted (Lot 4915) to Shoenberger; it is now reverted. The Miner Boy group consisted of the Miner Boy, Seattle (Lot 4178), Redruthite and Tip Top Fr. claims, owned by Trenery, George and Teir. In 1946, Trimetals Mining Incorporated purchased the Jo Jo (082KSW026) and Miner Boy claims but no work was reported. A diamond-drill hole (M-1) was collared to test the downward extension of the Miner Boy vein, by the London Silver Corporation in 1981. The vein was intersected at 96.75 metres depth and assay samples from 40 centimetres of quartz yielded 837 grams per tonne silver and 0.7 per cent lead (Assessment Report 9804).

The Miner Boy occurrence is underlain by slate and thinly bedded, calcareous argillite of the Triassic Slocan Group. Several quartz porphyry dikes intrude this Slocan strata.

The workings consist of several adits exploring mineralized quartz veins on either side of London Ridge. In 1893, 53 metres of adit had been tunnelled along a quartz vein. Mineralization consisted of native silver, argentite and tetrahedrite. The vein material is very similar to that exposed at the former McAllister mine.

Production records for the Miner Boy occurrence indicate 3 tonnes mined in 1893 yielded 36,857 grams silver.
