The Mot 2 occurrence is located approximately 9 kilometres northwest of Motase Lake (Assessment Report 18361).

The zones occur along the eastern margin of the Bowser basin in an area underlain by Upper Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous sediments of the Bowser Lake Group. Further to the east, volcanics of the Upper Triassic Takla Group and the Middle to Upper Jurassic Hazelton Group dominate. The rocks are intruded by feldspar porphyry and granodiorite dikes and sills thought related to either the Eocene Kastberg Intrusions or the Cretaceous Bulkley Intrusions. The Bulkley Intrusions occur further to the south.

Mineralized quartz veins in granodiorite contain values up to 4.74 grams per tonne gold and 52.0 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 16305). Most samples of the quartz veins assayed less than 0.8 gram per tonne gold.

WORK HISTORY

In 1987, Prolific Petroleum Ltd. conducted an exploration program on the MOT 2 claim, just north of the MOT claim where the historic mineralization of the Mot 1 prospect (094D 001) (Huestis zone) is located. Work completed on the MOT 2 claim during June 1987 consisted of detailed prospecting and geological mapping. Thirty-six rock samples were taken by prospectors. Rock samples consisted primarily of quartz vein material. Results ranged up to 4.74 grams per tonne gold and up to 52.0 grams per tonne silver (Mot 2 showing) (Assessment Report 16305).

In 1987, investigation by Prolific Resources Limited of the 1981 Amoco soil-grid anomalies defined the "North" (Anomaly 6), thought to be the Mot 2 showing (094D 042). As well as the North (Anomaly 6) zone, the Solomon, and Charles zones were defined and also described as gold-bearing quartz vein systems (Assessment Report 17339, Figures 3 and 5 and Map 1).

In 2007, Electrum Resources conducted a program of prospecting collecting 45 rock, 25 stream and 2 soil samples on the MOT North group; 11 rock and 5 stream samples on the MOT South group; and 15 stream samples from the MOT West group. On the MOT North group, consisting of tenures 517965 and 550767, there are at least two occurrences of polymetallic mineralization, one is mineralized float at 616830E, 6216550N and the other, on tenure 517965, is thought to be the MOT 2 showing (MINFILE 094D 042) located at 616280E, 6217230N. This is reported to be located within an area designated the “North Zone” on a map by Davis and Jamieson (1988a) (Assessment Report 18361). One 3-centimetre vein graded 35.8 grams per tonne silver, 0.04 per cent copper, 0.88 per cent lead, 0.18 per zinc and gold at 60 parts per billion (Assessment Report 29796). Veins were reported to be up to 20 centimetres thick. MOT West manifested no signs of mineralization. MOT South was only partially prospected.
