The Silver Wing showing is located on Jones Creek, 6.5 kilometres north-northwest of Alice Arm. The area was investigated for precious metals in 1916.

The region is underlain by an assemblage of volcanics and sediments of the Jurassic Hazelton Group. This assemblage is folded into a north-northwest trending anticline- syncline pair.

The showing consists of quartz stringers in a breccia zone that strikes 148 degrees in argillite. The zone has been traced along Jones Creek for 23 metres. The quartz stringers contain minor galena, sphalerite, chalcopyrite and pyrite. A 1.2-metre chip sample taken across the breccia zone assayed 1264 grams per tonne silver equivalent (Minister of Mines Annual Report 1916, page 63). In 1990, rock sample (90284MMR005) taken from trenches yielded up to 0.39 per cent zinc and 5.4 grams per tonne silver, and a grab sample (90284EEF160) from a dump assayed 6.1 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 21141).

Old workings are located in the gulch of Jones Creek, at an elevation of approximately 823 metres. The gulch represents a zone of crushing, or faulting, trending about 300 degrees. A nearly vertical small dike parallels the creek, outcropping along the south bank; a tunnel 2.4 metres long crosscuts this. Five small opencuts, extending up the creek for 23 metres, reveal a continuation of similar conditions. Across the creek, above the upper opencut, a short tunnel has been driven along the line of fissuring at 290 degrees.

In 1990, Canadian Cariboo Resources Ltd. conducted helicopter supported reconnaissance prospecting and contour soil/stream sediment geochemical surveys (Assessment Report 21131).
