The North Simlock area is near the upper reaches of Simlock Creek at the north end of Cariboo Lake, about 32 kilometres northeast of Likely. Access to the property is via Highway 26 to Barkerville and then by logging and four-wheel drive roads. The property is also accessible by logging roads from Likely along Cariboo Lake and up Harveys and Simlock creeks.

The North Simlock showing is located on the slope east of upper Simlock Creek, about one kilometre southeast of the past-producing Cariboo Hudson mine (093A 071). The showing is hosted by metasedimentary rocks of the Upper Proterozoic-Paleozoic Snowshoe Group, and is described as a quartz-siderite vein, 10 to 30 centimetres wide, containing local blebs of galena and pyrite. Several chip samples from the vein yielded significant values of gold and silver; the best gold value was from sample 800504, which contained 19.89 grams per tonne gold and 39.09 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 18417).

In 1988, Inter-Canadian Development Corp. conducted exploration in two stages at the property. An early fall soil (497) and rock (11) sampling program and a VLF-EM survey (11.5 kilometres), was followed by a late fall trenching program (3 trenches for 435 metres).
