The Sidina Creek showing is situated on the south tributary of Sidina Creek, 2 kilometres east of the old Salmon River road and approximately 19 kilometres north of Hazelton.

The area is underlain by clastic sediments of the Middle Jurassic to Upper Cretaceous Bowser assemblage, including sandstone, siltstone, shale and epiclastic feldspathic and volcanic conglomerate. Granite and monzonite of the Late Cretaceous Plutonic Suite intrude Bowser-Skeena sediments to southeast and northeast. Localized trace pyrite and lesser arsenopyrite and sphalerite are found within the stock to the southeast. Multiple generations of porphyritic monzonite and porphyritic rhyodacite dikes occur along the metamorphic aureole and within the surrounding sediments.

A narrow, shallowly dipping, lead-zinc-silver vein (the Sargent vein) occurs in the steep, rock-walled canyon of the creek. There are several old trench-like depressions on the Silver Prince #4 claim approximately 1 kilometre to the south.

The Sidina Creek showing was first discovered by Earl Sargent in the early 1980s. No evidence of prior work was found, though several historic trenches were located approximately 1 kilometre to the south.

In 1983, Joe Hidber and Lloyd Kindrat collected three grab samples from the vein and four soil samples along an old logging road. The results of the samples prompted the staking of the Silver Prince claims. Later that year, Roy Woolverton examined the property. A program of reconnaissance soil sampling and very low-frequency electromagnetic geophysical surveying was completed.

In 1986, Paul Huel staked the Raven claims over the area of the former Silverton claim group to the southeast. Between 1987 and 1988, Noranda Mining and Exploration Incorporated conducted two exploration programs on the Raven claims before allowing their option to lapse.

The ground lay dormant until 2005, when Cadre Capital Incorporated staked new claims over the Sidina Creek area and the Nine Mile Mountain area to the south. The following year, Golden Sabre Resources optioned the claims and carried out a limited exploration program of rock sampling and soil grid geochemistry.

In 2009, Rio Minerals Limited started a gold exploration and evaluation program on the Sidina property on behalf of TAD Capital Corporation (later known as TAD Mineral Exploration Limited). Exploration consisted of rock sampling, hand trenching, geological mapping, grid soil geochemistry and geophysical surveying. Hand trenching and sampling were carried out over historic mineralized areas on the property. Geological mapping focused on an area along West Creek and selected areas of poor rock exposure. Soil sampling was conducted over a grid that covered the Silverton occurrence (MINFILE 093M 038). By 2012, the claims covering the Sidina Creek showing had been dropped. A grab sample from the Sargent vein assayed 1628.8 grams per tonne silver, 2.5 grams per tonne gold, 6.12 per cent lead, 6.65 per cent zinc, 0.315 per cent copper, 2.5 per cent arsenic and 0.026 per cent mercury (Sample 12842, Assessment Report 12507).
