The Gold Ore showing is located on the west slope of Mount Rainey just north of the Silverado occurrence (103P 088), 2.5 kilometres southeast of Stewart.

The showing consists of two parallel, west striking quartz veins about 120 metres apart, hosted in greenstone of the Lower Jurassic Unuk River Formation (Hazelton Group). The south vein contains sparse patches and disseminations of pyrrhotite and traces of galena, and the 2.7 metre wide north vein contains sparse pyrrhotite.

A sample of pyrrhotite with minor galena from the south vein assayed 0.66 gram per tonne gold and 1354 grams per tonne silver; and a 1.37 metre chip sample across the south vein assayed 0.33 gram per tonne gold, 168 grams per tonne silver and 1.61 per cent lead (Minister of Mines Annual Report 1925, page 83).
