The Golden 2 showing is 1.6 kilometres east of Summers Creek, 8.35 kilometres due north of the confluence of Swanson and Rampart creeks.
The area along Summers Creek is underlain by the Eastern volcanic facies of the Upper Triassic Nicola Group, comprising mafic, augite and hornblende porphyritic pyroclastics and flows, and associated alkaline intrusions.
Locally, chalcopyrite and malachite occur together with quartz, calcite and epidote in an outcrop of tuff breccia and lahar deposits of the Upper Triassic Nicola Group (Eastern Belt, Bulletin 69).
