The MB showing is near the upper reaches of Comet Creek about 51 kilometres northeast of Likely. The claim area has good all season road access via West Fraser Timber's 3100 road which connects onto the Barkerville Highway near the town of Wells. To reach the property, the 3100 road is followed easterly from Wells for about 40 kilometres to a bridge crossing on the Cariboo River. From here the road extends along the south side of Matthew River around the northern and eastern perimeter of the claim area.
The MB showing is located within the Cariboo Terrane of the Omineca Belt underlain by rocks of the Upper Proterozoic-Cambrian Cariboo Group, Cunningham Formation. The Pleasant Valley Thrust, a major thrust fault which marks the division between the Cariboo and Barkerville terranes, lies a short distance to the west of the showing.
The Cunningham Formation is characterized by limestone, dolostone and fine-grained marble in gradational contact with the underlying, dominantly clastic rocks of the Issac Formation and the overlying clastic Yankee Belle Formation. These three formations are considered to be Hadrynian in age and are part of the Cariboo Group.
Mineralization consists of argentiferous galena within narrow northeast and northwest striking quartz veins cutting limestone and dolostone of the Cunningham Formation and quartzite of the Yankee Belle Formation. The best assay from grab samples in 1986 was 1.34 grams per tonne gold, 94.96 grams per tonne silver and 6.3 per cent lead (Assessment Report 15421).
In 1973, El Paso Mining carried out minor work on the vein showings located near the upper reaches of Comet Creek. In 1979, AJM Mining carried out an induced polarization survey over the area of the showings with negative results and the claims covering the showings were allowed to lapse. There are no records of any other significant work having been previously carried out within the claim area. In 2006, the MT property was staked by Skygold Ventures Ltd. A preliminary exploration program consisting of the collection of large, screened, stream sediment samples for heavy mineral analyses was carried out on the property in 2007 and a total of 21 samples were collected.
