The Adrian (A Zone) occurrence is located at an elevation of approximately 1300 metres on a generally northeast facing slope, east of the Verrett River.

The area is underlain by Upper Paleozoic Stikine Assemblage rocks which host thin-bedded limestone and volcanic arc-like mafic to felsic volcanic flows, tuffs and volcaniclastics. Locally, these rocks have been intruded by Jurassic(?) stocks and plutons.

Locally, three zones of sulphide-quartz veining hosting gold values have been identified over an approximate 400 metre strike length and comprise the main (A-B) zone, the C-D zones to the north east and the 1134 zone to the south west.

In 2012, chip samples taken from the “A” zone yielded from 9.06 to 54.20 grams per tonne gold over intervals of 1 metre, at 5 metre intervals, along a strike length of 30 metres (Von Einsiedel, C. (2012-05-14): Review of Technical Information and Proposed Exploration Program for the Adrian Project). Samples were also collected from areas of mineralization referred to as “C”, “D” and “1134” zones. Zones “C” and “D” may represent offset extensions or parallel zones related to the mineralization exposed at zone “A” and returned values ranging from 0.413 to 1.050 grams per tonne gold, while grab samples of poorly exposed, sulfide rich mineralization, referred to as the 1134 zone and located approximately 200 meters to the south west of the “A” zone, returned values ranging from 5.90 to 63.10 grams per tonne gold and 0.13 to 4.21 per cent copper (Von Einsiedel, C. (2012-05-14): Review of Technical Information and Proposed Exploration Program for the Adrian Project).

The area has been explored in conjunction with the nearby Adrian (MINFILE 104B 350) occurrence and a completed property exploration history can be found there.
