The Shelley group of claims, which included the Cover and Missing Link claims, were located on the east side of Vidette Lake, southeast of the Vidette mine (092P 086). They have all lapsed. The area is approximately 50 (air) kilometres north of Savona and is accessible on a good-quality gravel road which leads north from the Trans-Canada Highway about 7.4 kilometres west of Savona.

The Vidette Lake area is underlain by mafic volcanic rocks of the Upper Triassic Nicola Group exposed in a window eroded through flat lying Miocene sedimentary rocks and plateau basalts of the Chilcotin Group. The uppermost Chilcotin Group strata comprise an extensive layer of plateau basalts of the Chasm Formation, underlain by volcanic ash and fluviatile and lacustrine sedimentary strata of the Deadman River Formation which occupy a northwest trending Miocene channel. The Nicola rocks are intruded by biotite-hornblende granodiorite plugs which are possibly related to the Triassic to Jurassic Thuya batholith. Nicola rocks are generally augite andesites commonly altered to chlorite-rich or calcareous greenstones, however, contact metamorphism has developed garnet-diopside-actinolite skarn or tactite adjacent to the intrusive rocks.

The Shelley claims are located 1500 metres southeast of the Vidette mine (092P 086). Geological Survey of Canada Memoir 179 describes two "shear zones" carrying abundant disseminated pyrite in greenstone and approximately 3 metres apart. Elsewhere, a short adit has been driven on narrow quartz and calcite stringers in a "shear zone" in greenstone.

The first record of work was in the 1930s when the property was explored by several pits and an adit. More recently the property has been covered by several soil geochemical and geophysical surveys (Assessment Reports 4257, 12021, 17810, 18492, 19136).

In 2020, Kermode Resources Ltd. completed a minor program of prospecting, geological mapping and rock sampling on the area.
