The New 2 claim is underlain predominantly by andesitic volcanics and minor gabbroic intrusions in an area regionally mapped as Devonian Stikine Assemblage volcanics and sediments intruded by Late Devonian rock of the McClymont Plutonic Suite.

Mineralization on the property is found as small veins, pods, shears and fractures. Minor quartz and quartz-barite veining was seen with shear or fracture systems hosting the majority of mineralization. Sulphide mineralization includes pyrite, chalcopyrite, galena, and specular hematite with magnetite also present. Malachite and azurite was often found as stains around fractures where there was stronger chalcopyrite.

The most interesting area on the property is the northwest corner of the New 2 claim and along the western claim boundary. This area contains a band of intrusive rock bounded on both sides by andesite. There are no anomalous gold samples from this area but silver, copper and cobalt are elevated. Sample 22508 assayed 6.1 grams per tonne silver and sample 22612 assayed 9.1 grams per tonne silver. Gold values from these two samples were 70 and 30 ppb respectively (Assessment Report 18515).

Also found in the vicinity are small shears and quartz veins carrying pyrite, chalcopyrite, specular hematite and malachite stain in shears and small quartz veins. Five samples were taken with copper ranging from 1041 to more than 2 per cent and cobalt up to 0.16 per cent (Assessment Report 18515). The two highest copper values, from samples 22609 and 22612 assayed 3.34 and 3.41 per cent copper respectively.

Another nearby location revealed massive pyrite veins, 3-5 centimetres wide, were found within syenite or andesite, particularly along the contacts with the cherty bands. Chalcopyrite, specular hematite and massive magnetite are also present. The two highest copper values, from samples 22505 and 22508, are 3.95 and 4.15 per cent copper respectively (Assessment Report 18515).

Geological mapping, prospecting, and silt and soil geochemical sampling was performed on the New 2 and Joy 11 claims during 1988 on behalf International Phoenix Energy Corp. 47 rock, 498 soil and 28 silt samples were collected. International Phoenix reported that an airborne geophysical survey covering many claims in the area was flown for Pamicon Developments Ltd. The survey area included the ground held by International Phoenix in 1988. There were no electromagnetic conductors detected on the International Phoenix claims.

In 2012, Remo Resources Corp. acquired the Adrian property and completed a program of geological mapping and rock and soil sampling.
