The SUGAR BOWL occurrence is located above the valley floor at the northern headwaters of Ottarasko Creek, 5.5 kilometres south of Razorback Mountain, 39 kilometres south of the community of Tatla Lake on Highway 20, and 188 kilometres southwest of Williams Lake, BC.

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 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 kilometres 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, 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). 25 rock samples were collected on the 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. 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.

In 2020, Kingfisher Metals Corp. completed geological mapping, detailed prospecting, the collection of 57 rock samples and 3 back-pack drill holes in the Lori prospect area approximately 600 metres north of Sugar Bowl (Assessment Report 39459). In 2020, Kingfisher collected 57 rock samples in the Lori area ranging from below detection limit to a maximum value of 88.35 grams per tonne gold (Press Release, Kingfisher Metals Corp., September 28, 2021). Additionally, rock sampling returned highly anomalous grades for bismuth and tellurium with values up to 0.06 per cent bismuth and 0.058 per cent tellurium. Back-pack drilling was completed over 3 shallow holes (0.1 to 0.74 metre) with results including: 10.9 grams per tonne gold over 0.54 metre, 3.14 g grams per tonne gold over 0.74 metre, and 2.72 grams per tonne gold over 0.1 metre (Press Release, Kingfisher Metals Corp., September 28, 2021).

No ground work in the Sugar Bowl showing area was conducted in 2021, but in 2022 structural interpretations were made from airborne data collected in 2020 over the large Goldrange project area.
