Rocks in the Stuhini showing area are reported to consist of grey andesite with crowded distinctive white to pink phenocrysts. The second type of rock is purple with smaller lath-like fragments, but its colour and surface texture resembles basalt. This rock is more pitted on its weathered surface than the former and in fact could be a tuff. Recent mapping by Mihalynuk et al.,(Fieldwork 1993, 1994) resulted in the assignment of area rocks to the Early Eocene Sloko Group. The country rock is intruded by a strong north-easterly trending alaskite dike swarm. Limited gossans on the property are associated with silicification and pyritization. Gossan zone #1, on the western part of the Take claims, yielded two anomalous gold-in-soil values of 380 and 1160 parts per billion. Silver values of 19.6 and 6.5 parts per million and arsenic values of 1183 and 3690 parts per million were obtained from the same respective samples (Assessment Report 21531). Rock sample analyses were typically low. In 1981, one sample assayed 0.08 gram per tonne gold, 1.4 grams per tonne silver, trace copper, and molybdenum. Other samples returned 3.2 grams per tonne silver, 0.004 per cent copper, 0.002 per cent molybdenum, and 1.6 grams per tonne silver, 0.009 per cent copper, 0.0002 per cent molybdenum, respectively. (Assessment Report 9107).

The Stuhini claims were staked in 1980 to cover an area in which a gold-bearing pyritic zone related to an alaskite dike had been reported by earlier workers in the area. The claims were owned by Frank Onucki and in 1980 Berglynn Resources Inc collected 10 rock, 5 stream silt and 23 soil samples (Assessment Report 9107). The Stuhini claims cover some of the same area previously covered by the Sue claims (104K 051) but the Sue exploration area is much further south (Assessment Report 8436B). In 1990, a total of 72 units were staked by Solomon Resources Limited as the Take claims (Assessment Report 21531). During a prospecting program two gossan zones were identified, measuring 300 metres long and 25 metres wide, and 50 by 50 metres, respectively. The Take claims cover much of the same ground that was targeted by the Stuhini claims.

The previously explored Stuhini claim area was staked by DeCoors Mining Corp in October 2006 and sold to Optima Minerals Inc in November 2006 and became part of Taku Gold block of the Taku Property. Optima did not visit the showing.
