The Gordo 2B area is underlain by dacitic rock of the Upper Triassic Stuhini (Takla) Group.

In 1995, a grab sample (GB-11) from a narrow calcite vein in massive epidote hosting chalcopyrite, specularite and malachite staining, located approximately 500 metres to the southwest, assayed 13.0 grams per tonne silver and 1.31 per cent copper (Assessment Report 24284).

In 2004, a sample (148959) from a 10-centimetre quartz vein containing chalcopyrite and malachite assayed 1.49 grams per tonne gold and greater than 1 per cent copper (Assessment Report 27638). The vein strikes 149 degrees with 80 degrees dip.

In 2016, four samples (M456711-712 and M456721-722) were taken from a small (approximately 100 by 120 metres) zone, located approximately 450 metres to the east, containing well mineralized but poddy copper sulfide bearing veins including pyrite-chalcopyrite-magnetite veins and specular hematite-sulfide-quartz-calcite veins associated with variable chlorite-epidote-magnetite/hematite + albite alteration in a fine grained, locally flow banded hypabyssal intrusive rock. This is associated with widespread intrusive and polymictic magmatic-hydrothermal breccia. The samples averaged 1.9 per cent copper and 9.2 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 36482).

Work History

The showing was discovered in 2004 by Stealth Minerals on their Gordo 2 claim. See Gordo 2A (094E 292) to the north for details of a common work history.
