The JR 2 occurrence is exposed in the bed of a small creek on the eastern side of Flores Island, approximately 3.2 kilometres east of Alto Lake. The area is approximately 25 kilometres northwest of Tofino.

The area is underlain by the quartz monzonitic phase of a multiphase Eocene Catface Intrusion. Other phases are quartz-diorite, granite and aplite.

Mineralization consists of chalcopyrite on several shear surfaces, and as disseminations near the shear zone, in association with mafic minerals. Pyrite, malachite, native copper and chalcocite are present in small amounts. In 1972, two samples from the occurrence assayed 0.08 per cent copper. The molybdenite content is negligible (Assessment Report 3689).

In 1969, Falconbridge completed a program of silt and soil sampling and the area as the Flo group. In 1972, Tri-Con Exploration Surveys completed a program of geological mapping, geochemical sampling and a ground magnetic survey on the area as JR claims. In 1972, Western Mines completed a program of soil sampling on the area. In 1974, Wesfrob Mines completed a program of geological mapping on the Flo claims. In 1979 and 1981, Clear Mines completed programs of geological mapping, rock and soil sampling and airborne geophysical surveys on the area.

In 2012, Catface Copper Mines undertook a soil sampling program on their Flores Island Project in an area 1 to 3 kilometres northwest of the JR 2 occurrence.
