The Wolf showing is located between Wolf and China creeks, about 10.5 kilometres southeast of Barkerville. Summer access to the property is currently by means of a gravel road that services placer mining operations along Antler Creek.

The Wolf showing area is underlain by Upper Proterozoic-Paleozoic metamorphosed sediments of the Snowshoe Group, mostly phyllite/argillite, graphitic schist and limestone. Metamorphism is to greenschist facies. A fairly thick and continuous deposit of glacial alluvium is present in the valleys.

A grab sample (92CLSBR-5) of massive galena and pyrite lenses within a 10 metre wide fault zone striking 020 degrees and dipping vertically analyzed greater than 200 grams per tonne silver and greater than 1 per cent lead (Assessment Report 22989). The fault zone cuts graphitic schist and contains quartz boudins.

The area of the Wolf property has been sporadically explored since placer gold was first discovered in the mid-1880s, however, most of that exploration was for the area's placer potential. In 1992, Pacific Mariner Explorations Ltd. (formerly Rise Resources Ltd.) acquired the hard rock claims in the belief that they overlay the source of the Antler Creek placer gold. In 1992, prospecting was completed on the Wolf claim and six rock chip samples taken.

During 2000 through 2008, Golden Cariboo Resources Ltd. completed programs of prospecting, geological mapping, geochemical (rock, soil, moss and stream sediment) sampling, ground magnetic and self potential surveys, trenching and 60 diamond drill holes, totalling 28,710.0 metres on the area as the Golden Cariboo property. A complete summary of exploration programs can be found at the Cariboo Hudson (MINFILE 093A 091) occurrence.

In 2005, drill hole GCC05-30, collard on the Wolf property, intersected a strongly silicified argillitic quartzite with 2 to 3 per cent pyrite yielded 14.7 grams per tonne gold over 3.0 metres (Brown, J. (2009-01-28): Technical Report on the 2000-2008 Exploration Programs on the Golden Cariboo Project).
