The Georgina occurrence is located south of Nanoose Creek, approximately 3.6 kilometres west of the creek mouth.
The area is underlain by Sicker Group rocks, thought to be correlative with the Devonian McLaughlin Ridge Formation (Cowichan uplift). These are intruded by fine to coarse-grained diorite of the Jurassic Island Intrusions and unconformably overlain by Upper Cretaceous Comox Formation (Nanaimo Group) fossiliferous sandstone and conglomerate. The Sicker rocks comprise black shale, felsic volcanic rocks, maroon and grey schist and andesite.
Locally, a strong 1.8 metre wide northwest trending shear zone within the Sicker volcanic rocks hosts a 10 centimetre wide quartz-carbonate vein striking 285 degrees and dipping 75 degrees north. The vein is mineralized with chalcopyrite, pyrite and arsenopyrite and assays give values in gold and silver. Several unmineralized veinlets also occur.
The vein was exploited by a small shaft and trenches along the bank of a creek. In 1986 and 1987, MineQuest Exploration Associated Ltd. completed programs of rock and silt geochemical sampling, geological mapping and prospecting. A chip sample from dump material at the shaft assayed 4.11 grams per tonne gold (Assessment Report 16041).
