The Eagle occurrence is located about 750 metres east of the Sheslay River, approximately 52 kilometres west-northwest of the community of Telegraph Creek.

At the showing, Upper Triassic Stuhini Group calcareous volcanic siltstone intercalated with chloritic schists have been replaced by magnetite and chalcopyrite mineralization adjacent a Late Triassic and Early Jurassic monzonite stock. Mineralization has been noted up to 300 metres away from the intrusive contact. The zones of replacement are malachite stained, confined to specific stratigraphic horizons, and vary in width from 0.1 to 2 metres but average approximately 1.5 metres. The best results from grab rock sampling are 4.25 grams per tonne gold, 5.45 per cent copper and 8.57 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 20940, page 5).

In 1990, North American Metals Corporation conducted a program of prospecting and reconnaissance mapping and rock and stream sediment sampling on the Sheslay 1 to 5 claims. A total of 27 stream and 11 rock samples were collected for analyses.
