The 2N (ZN) occurrences is located on the north side of a large south facing cirque to the north of Copeland Creek. The showing is exposed at an elevation of approximately 1710 metres.
The area is within the Monashee Metamorphic Complex which is regionally metamorphosed to amphibolite grade and on the south eastern side of the Frenchmap Cap gneiss dome. The rocks are mainly medium grained, biotite-feldspar granitic gneiss.
Locally, three or more 5 to 10 centimetre thick galena-sphalerite-quartz veins pinch and swell within a biotite gneiss over a distance of approximately 100 metres. The veins strike 010 degrees with a dip of 70 degrees east and alteration margins up to 30 centimetres wide. A fresh looking medium grey fine grained dike which includes quartz filled vesicles follows the mineralized structure.
In 1989, grab samples yielded up to 178.0 grams per tonne silver, 11.90 per cent lead and 10.25 per cent zinc from sample WG 10; while a 2.0 metre chip sample (WG 09) assayed 132.5 grams per tonne silver, 7.15 per cent lead and 10.40 per cent zinc (Property File - W. Cameron [1990-09-05]: Re: Assay certificates and claim maps - Wild Goose). In 2001, rock samples (R-10 and R-13) assayed greater than 100 grams per tonne, 1.0 per cent lead and 1.0 per cent zinc, respectively (Assessment Report 26829).
The area was originally explored in the late 1890’s as the Goose Chase claims. In 1989, mineralization was discovered by Frances Jenkins, Ruby Cameron and Bill Cameron and the area was staked and prospected as the Wild Goose claims. In 2001, New Blue Ribbon Resources completed a program of rock sampling and geological mapping. In 2012, International Millennium Mining completed a program of soil and stream sampling on the area.
