The Epidote 2 showing, discovered in 2018, is on an upper ridge side 1 kilometre northeast of of Treasure Mountain peak, in the headwaters of Mattock Creek, approximately 37.5 kilometres east of Terrace, B.C.

The Epidote 2 showing is within a greater than 14 kilometre north trending zone of copper+/-silver mineralization extending from Clore River valley to Kleanza River valley.

Twelve grab samples (KMT-1893 to 18104) were taken from several thin quartz-carbonate-epidote veins and fracture zones containing up to 3 per cent of combined bornite and chalcocite. They assayed up to 2.87 per cent Cu, 76.7 grams per tonne Ag and 1.63 grams per tonne gold. A float of carbonate vein with copper mineralization (sample A18-59) derived from this zone assayed 13.6 per cent copper and 218 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 37602).
