The Sugar Bowl area is underlain by the Lower Cretaceous Cloud Drifter Formation consisting of sandstone, siltstone, and minor conglomerate. The Late Triassic to Cretaceous Eastern Waddington thrust belt imbricate zone occurs nearby to the west and south. A Late Cretaceous to Paleocene stock of the Bendor suite consisting of granodioritic intrusive rocks is in contact with the Cloud Drifter rocks about 3 kilometres southeast of the Sugar Bowl zone.

In 2018, a short field program by DSM Syndicate Holdings Ltd. on their Lucky Strike property worked to verify samples collected during one day of reconnaissance prospecting done in 2017 (before the claims were staked), trying to replicate historic grab sample assays of up to 89 grams per tonne gold (see Lori, MINFILE 092N 047). Both programs led to the discovery of the Sugar Bowl Zone, a 400-metre by 250-metre-wide zone defined by mineralized grab and chip samples, which remains open in all directions (Press Release, Juggernaut Exploration, February 20, 2017, and December 4, 2018).

In 2017, a total of 39 rock samples were taken by Juggernaut Exploration Ltd. (DSM Syndicate Holdings Ltd) on the New Strike Property. Eleven out of fourteen grab and chip samples, from both float and outcrop returned anomalous mineralization defining the newly discovered Sugar Bowl zone. Sample W389330, a 2-metre chip sample from the Sugar Bowl zone returned 0.63 gram per tonne gold and 2.6 grams per tonne silver with only 7 parts per million copper; Sample W388870 returned assays of 2.78 grams per tonne gold, 1.7 grams per tonne silver, and 0.04 per cent copper from a grab samples of angular float; and Sample W388992 was a talus grab sample collected 2 kilometers to the west of the Sugar Bowl area that returned assays of up to 1.51 grams per tonne gold, 7.3 grams per tonne silver, and 0.27 per cent copper (Press Release, Juggernaut Exploration, Feb 20, 2018).

In 2018, DSM Syndicate Holdings Ltd. collected 25 rock samples on their New Strike property, including the Homestake (092N 035), Champagne (092N 059) and Lori (092N 047) (Assessment Report 37886). Seven of these samples were taken from the Sugar Bowl zone. All samples assayed from below detection to 6.64 gram per tonne gold (Press Release, Juggernaut Exploration, December 4, 2018).

The following information was taken from Appendix A (Field Notes), a rock sample information table by column and row (Assessment Report 37886). Sample W496807, which assayed 6.64 grams per tonne gold, 4.2 grams per tonne silver, and 0.062 per cent arsenic, was reported to have consisted of "gossanous quartz vein hosted in intrusive rock". The vein was up to 10 centimetres wide but pinches and swells. Numerous veins similar to this one in size, orientation, mineralization occurred. Other sub-centimetre veins are oblique to these veins but do not appear to have any mineralization associated with them. The zone was described as being "almost stockwork". While the table description states that the vein host is intrusive rock, the lithology column indicates mudstone. This sample area is 400 metres north of the Sugar Bowl zone.
