The Silver Boss (South Ridge) occurrence is located at an elevation of approximately 2060 metres along the southern crest of Big Timothy Mountain.
Regionally, the area is underlain by gabbroic to dioritic rocks of the Buster Lake unit and granodioritic intrusive rocks of the Boss Creek and Schoolhouse Lake units of the Late Triassic to Early Jurassic Takomkane Batholith, which have intruded basaltic volcanic rocks of the Upper Triassic Nicola Group. These have in turn been intruded and are locally overlain near the summit of Big Timothy Mountain by basaltic volcanic rocks of the Pleistocene Wells Gray volcanics.
Locally at the Silver Boss (South Ridge) , 1- to 3-centimetre wide quartz-filled fractures with minor chalcopyrite, magnetite and traces of molybdenite in a propylitically altered monzodiorite host.
In 2004, a sample (151674) assayed up to 0.193 per cent copper, 17.4 grams per tonne silver and 0.15 gram per tonne gold (Assessment Report 27755).
In 2006, a grab sample (185470) assayed 7.26 grams per tonne gold and 140.0 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 28987).
The Headwall zone is located approximately 300 metres to the northwest of the South Ridge zone in a large gully and is composed of quartz-veined float, similar to that of the main Silver Boss (MINFILE 093A 019) occurrence, along an approximately 1500 metres strike length and associated with a south west striking fault zone.
In 2004, a sample (151797) assayed 0.723 gram per tonne gold, 0.023 per cent bismuth and 0.023 per cent tungsten (Assessment Report 27755).
The area has been historically explored in conjunction with the nearby Silver Boss (MINFILE 093A 019) occurrence and Boss Mountain (MINFILE 093A 001) past-producing mine.
During 2004 through 2014, Happy Creek Minerals carried out programs of prospecting, geological mapping, 34.2 line-kilometres of 3D induced polarization and magnetic geophysical surveys and stream sediment, soil and rock geochemical surveys on the area as the Silverboss property.
