The Cedar occurrence is located south of the East Wild Horse River, approximately 1.5 kilometres east of its junction with the Wild Horse River.

Regionally, the area is underlain by middle Proterozoic (Helikian) Purcell Supergroup strata that are folded and overturned above thrust faults to the east. Intrusives include numerous dikes and sills and a quartz monzonite plug 2 kilometres to the southeast.

Locally, altered, dolomitic limestones of the middle Proterozoic (Helikian) Kitchener Formation (Purcell Supergroup) have been intruded by a monzonite stock and a late-stage(?), light-coloured dike. The dike and quartz veins in the sediments west of the stock carry some scheelite and minor specks of chalcopyrite, sphalerite and molybdenite. Some replacement textures have also been noted within the sediments adjacent to the dike as well as calc-silicate alteration of the country rock. Gossanous mineralization is exposed at surface over an area of approximately 240 by 90 metres.

In 1977, surface samples of gossanous material are reported to have averaged 0.28 per cent lead, 0.06 per cent zinc, 1.03 per cent copper and 8.6 grams per tonne silver, while drilling yielded up to 7.7 per cent zinc over 0.6 metre (Property File - Kokanee Explorations Ltd. [1990-07-01]: Report on Kokanee Explorations Ltd. Cash Property, East of Wild Horse River).

In 1990, diamond drilling yielded: 0.07 per cent copper with 3.14 per cent zinc over 16.05 metres in hole C-90-2; 0.4 per cent copper, 0.11 per cent lead and 4.5 grams per tonne silver over 19.5 metres in hole C-90-3; 0.43 per cent copper over 2.46 metres and 0.22 per cent copper over 5.34 metres, including 0.03 per cent copper, 6.62 per cent lead and 25.3 grams per tonne silver over 0.6 metre in hole C-90-6; 0.16 per cent copper over 8.1 metres in hole C-90-7 and 31.5 grams per tonne silver with 0.32 per cent lead over 0.78 metre in hole C-90-9 (Property File - Kokanee Explorations Ltd. [1990-06-15]: Press Releases and Property Location Map - Cash Property).

In 1973, Cominco completed two short drill holes. In 1990, Kokanee Explorations completed at least nine diamond drill holes, along a 1300-metre long induced polarization anomaly, on the area as the Cash property. During 2005 through 2009, Ruby Red Resources Inc. completed programs of rock and soil sampling, geological mapping, trenching and a 4.5 line-kilometre ground electromagnetic (VLF) survey on the area. In 2010 and 2011, the area was explored as a part of the Dewdney Trail Gold project of PJX Resources Inc.
