The Gee 2 occurrence is located on the southerly slopes of Mount Magee, about 5.5 kilometres east-southeast of Stewart.

The area is underlain by Lower Jurassic Unuk River Formation (Hazelton Group) porphyritic andesite flows overlain by Middle-Upper Jurassic Hazelton Group siltstone, greywacke and conglomerate to the east.

The showing is a 200 by 300 metre gossan zone containing trace pyrite and sphalerite, with specular hematite, chlorite and epidote mineralization. A trenched rock chip sample yielded 10.1 grams per tonne silver and 0.13 per cent zinc across 1.0 metre (Assessment Report 21101).

In 1989-90, White Channel Resources Incorporated carried out geological mapping, prospecting, soil and stream sediment sampling on the Ma and Gee claims.
