The George occurrence is situated 500 metres east of the Tangier River about 250 metres north of its confluence with Moloch Creek, approximately 50 kilometres northeast of Revelstoke.

Lower Cambrian dull grey, flaggy crystalline limestone with slaty intercalations strikes 345 degrees and dips 30 to 50 degrees east. Irregular lenticular quartz-calcite veins, up to 20 centimetres wide, cut the limestone and are mineralized with pyrite, sphalerite and galena. A mineral, thought to be tetrahedrite in the field, resembles boulangerite under the microscope (Geological Survey of Canada Summary Report 1928 Part A, page 191).

In the period 1896 to 1898, the vein was stripped for 60 metres and an adit driven 48 metres to cut the vein at depth. A winze, depth unknown, was sunk from the adit. These workings were badly caved when examined in 1928. In 1899, a 3.6-tonne shipment of selected ore was sent to the Trail smelter for testing and yielded "satisfactory" assays in gold, silver and copper. In August 1903, 5.5 tons was shipped to the Trail smelter and gave returns of $110 per ton; in November of the same year, 2.5 tons was sent to Tacoma and gave returns of $116 per ton, mainly in silver respectively (Geological Survey of Canada Summary Report 1928 Part A, page 191).
