The Silver King Lake showing is located at the head of Silver King Lake basin about 2 kilometres northwest of the Silver King mine (093L 201). The showing was discovered in 1991 during mineral potential studies by the B.C. Geological Survey Branch.

The area is underlain by volcanic rocks of the Upper Cretaceous Kasalka Group. Hostrocks are mylonitic to schistose and form lenticular zones within otherwise massive volcanic rocks. Foliated rocks strike east and dip south, generally parallel to the regionally extensive pyritic and limonite stained rocks.

The showing consists of a quartz vein, 3 centimetres wide, exposed for 2 metres along strike in feldspar porphyritic andesite. The vein consists of vuggy crystalline quartz and contains irregular blebs of galena, chalcopyrite and pyrite, 1 millimetre to several centimetres in size.

A sample of the vein assayed 0.011 grams per tonne gold, 16 grams per tonne silver, 0.0564 per cent copper, 1.59 per cent lead, 0.037 per cent zinc and 0.0013 per cent cadmium (Fieldwork 1991 p. 98).
