The Wasp (L.333) occurrence is located on a tributary of Cass Creek, approximately 1 kilometre northwest of the creek mouth and 29 kilometres southwest of Port Alberni.

The area is underlain by Upper Triassic Quatsino Formation (Vancouver Group) limestone in contact with andesite of the Lower Jurassic Bonanza Group. The strata is intruded by diorite of the Early to Middle Jurassic Island Plutonic Suite. The intrusive has altered the limestone to masses of garnet and epidote, while the andesite is intensely fractured and metamorphosed, containing bunches and stringers of garnet, epidote and tremolite.

Locally, a diopside-epidote-tremolite altered limestone and volcanics host massive sulphide mineralization consisting of copper (chalcopyrite?) and pyrite mineralization.

In 1988 and 1989, Barona Resources completed programs of soil and rock sampling, geological mapping and ground geophysical surveys on the area as the Gold Nugget claim. Chip samples C4898 and C4900 assayed 66.8 and 65.2 grams per tonne silver, respectively, with greater than 1 per cent copper (Assessment Report 17714).

In 2007 through 2013, Nahminto Resources completed a program of prospecting, geological mapping, geochemical sampling, a ground magnetometer survey and airborne geophysical surveys on the area as the TJM claims, part of the Nahmint property. In 2013, Equitas Resources Corp. conducted geological mapping, rock, soil and stream moss mat sampling at the Three Jays North area of the Nahmint property.

In 2020 a structural analysis via photo interpretation and minor prospecting and stream and rock sampling were conducted on the Nahmint property for tenure holder B. McKinney.
