The Channel showing is situated east of Kitkiatka Creek near the tidewater at Kitkiatka Inlet on the Douglas Channel, 61.8 kilometres southwest of Kitimat and 101 kilometres southeast of Prince Rupert.

It is within the Ecstall Greenstone Belt, a north-northwest trending, high-grade metamorphic belt bounded by the elongate mid-Cretaceous Ecstall pluton on the west and the Paleocene Quottoon pluton on the east (Aldrick 2001). Gareau (1991a) divided stratified rocks of the belt into four principal units: metavolcanic rocks, metasedimentary rocks, quartzite and layered gneiss.

The first recorded exploration efforts were in 2019 by Kingfisher Resources Ltd. Sampling was restricted to two areas previously mapped as having quartz-sericite rhyolite schists. Sampling consisted of 40 soil samples, 16 rock samples, and 4 stream sediment samples. Sampling was completed up slope of deactivated logging roads when possible. Soil sampling returned values up to 781.9 parts per million Zn and up to 18.2 parts per billion Au. Soil sampling failed to outline any strongly anomalous zones although west of Kitkiata Creek sampling did return moderately anomalous gold values. Rock sampling returned anomalous Zn values west of Kitkiatka Creek with up to 0.12 per cent Zn (3440001) and near tidewater two showings of chalcopyrite stringer mineralization returned values up to 0.45 percent Cu and 0.40 gram per tonne Au (3440008), and 0.58 per cent Cu and 0.42 gram per tonne Au (3440010). Both samples occurred within biotite-quartz- sericite altered schists and gneisses (Assessment Report 38705).

The Channel showing was part of a 2019 Airborne VTEM survey over Kingfisher's Ecstall property (Assessment Report 39155).
