The Kringer-2 occurrence is located at an elevation of approximately 325 metres on a northeast-facing slope, southwest of the Adam River and approximately 4.4 kilometres southeast of Rooney Lake.

The area to the west of the Adam River is mainly underlain mainly by the upper part of the Upper Triassic Karmutsen Formation, comprising mainly thick massive flows with local intercalations of amygdaloidal basalt and pods of autoclastic breccias, pillowed and massive flows with thin intercalations of volcaniclastic and limy sandstones, all cut by thin dolerite/gabbro sills.

Locally, a 3 by 2 metre pit exposes variably malachite-stained basalt with sporadic sulphides (chalcopyrite?).

In 2006, a rock sample (K070A) assayed 1.387 per cent copper, 5.0 grams per tonne silver and 0.098 gram per tonne gold (Assessment Report 28747).

Work History

During 2006 through 2013, M. Schau completed programs of prospecting, geological mapping and rock sampling on the area as the Kringle claims. In 2018, Crest Resources Inc. completed a program of prospecting, geochemical (rock and soil) sampling, trenching and a 24.0 line-kilometre ground electromagnetic survey on the area as the Red Metal Ridge property.
