The South Muskateer occurrence lies on the east bank of the Kitsault River, 24 kilometres north of Alice Arm. The area has been explored since 1916 for its silver-lead-zinc mineralization.

The area is underlain by a sequence of volcanic and sedimentary rocks belonging to the Upper Triassic Stuhini Group and the Lower-Upper Jurassic Hazelton Group. The sequence is folded into a doubly plunging, north-northwest trending syncline (the Kitsault River syncline) and has been regionally metamorphosed to greenschist facies.

The showing comprises a volcanogenic silver-zinc-lead barite exhalative deposit hosted in propylitic, silica and carbonate altered andesitic tuffs of the Hazelton Group. The deposit strikes between 041 and 048 degrees and dips are variable between 62 degrees southeast and 72 degrees northwest. It has been traced along strike for 274 metres and downdip for 259 metres with an average width of 3.7 metres.

The mineralogy of the South Muskateer is similar to the Torbrit (103P 191) and Moose-Lamb (103P 008) deposits. Mineralization consists of pyrite, sphalerite, galena with minor chalcopyrite and traces of pyrargyrite, argentite and tetrahedrite in a gangue of quartz, calcite, barite, celestite, hematite, jasper, siderite, magnetite and chlorite. Surface sampling resulted in assay values between 0.3 to 822.7 grams per tonne silver (George Cross Newsletter No.147, 1970).

During 2010 through 2019, Dolly Silver Corporation explored the area as apart of the Dolly Varden property. A complete property exploration history can be found at the Dolly Varden (MINFILE 103P 188) occurrence.
