The Claw 3 occurrence is located 3.6 kilometres south-southwest of Moosehorn Lake and about 254 kilometres northwest of the community of Germansen Landing.

The Claw 3 showing is underlain by volcanics of the Upper Triassic Stuhini Group. Rocks of the Lower-Middle Jurassic Hazelton Group occur to the east and west of the Claw 3 area.

In 2005, Stealth Mineral Ltd. collected several samples from one area of the Claw 3 claim. An andesitic sample with pyrite, sphalerite and galena yielded greater than 1 per cent lead, 0.58 per cent zinc, 1.91 grams per tonne gold and 1152 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 27635).

Refer to Har (094E 053), located 7.5 kilometres southeast, for details of the Breccia-Claw area work history.
