The Lincoln shaft is located south of Mineral Hill and approximately 1.5 kilometres northwest of Peter Hope Lake.

The area is underlain by the Upper Triassic Nicola Group. Volcanic rocks vary from dark green biotite-hornblende porphyritic flows to pale green porphyritic flows with biotite and hornblende phenocrysts altered to chlorite. Two main directions of jointing in the volcanics strike north-northeast to north-northwest and dip very steeply.

Locally, two historic shallow shafts, up to 3 metres deep, were excavated in a zone of Nicola greenstone. The main shaft, referred to as the Lincoln shaft, exposes a northerly trending shear zone hosting quartz veins and stringers with disseminated pyrite and pods of galena. The second shaft exposes a comparable quartz breccia zone.

In 2005, a sample (006886) of dump material from the No.2 shaft assayed 0.3 per cent lead, 1.41 grams per tonne gold and greater than 100 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 27896). In 2006, sampling of dump material from the Lincoln shaft yielded values up to 0.185 per cent copper, 2.71 grams per tonne gold and greater than 1.0 per cent lead (Assessment Report 28606).

In 1985, Times Square Energy Resources completed a program of geological mapping, soil sampling and a ground electromagnetic survey on the area as the CIG 100 property. In 1987, New Hombre Resources Ltd. completed a soil geochemical survey, a VLF-EM survey, a magnetometer survey, a geological survey, and the digging of three test pits. From 1992 to 1995, the GIG 100 ground was originally covered in part by the Spud claim group and subsequently by the WJA claim group, which was owned by Module Resources Incorporated. The only work completed for Module prior to the expiration of the WJA claims, in 1995, was minor trenching. In 1995, the S claim group was staked and followed by the completion of localized exploration programs. During 1997 through 2006, Capella Resources Ltd. completed various programs of trenching, geochemical sampling, geophysical surveys and 4 diamond drill holes, totalling 233.0 metres, on the area as the S claim group.
