The New showing is located 8 kilometres east of Moricetown.

The property is underlain by polymictic conglomerate and grit of the Lower Cretaceous Kitsuns Creek Formation (Skeena Group) which is cut by syenite dikes of unknown age. In the centre of the claim block the conglomerate is intensely altered to limonite and cut by an intense honeycomb-like network of quartz-calcite veins. Sphalerite and antimony sulphides have been identified in float.
