The Paige showing is located approximately 56 kilometres east of the Stikine River, 22 kilometres north of the Iskut River, and 48 kilometres west of the Cassiar Highway.
The occurrence is underlain by clastic sediments, limestone, and volcanic rocks of the Carboniferous to Permian Newmont Lake Formation of the Stikine assemblage.
In 2019, the Paige vein was discovered by Enduro Metals during a soil sampling program who described the showing as a north trending, fault-bound vein. Sulphides and metal endowment were reported to be similar to those of the Cuba occurrences. A grab sample of the Paige vein graded 5.34 per cent copper, 4.34 per cent zinc, 1.53 per cent lead, and 854 grams per tonne silver (Sample B0004269, Assessment Report 39128). The sample was described as a being from a small 3 centimetre by 3 metre fracture filling of barite with 2 per cent pyrite, chalcopyrite, and minor malachite. Elsewhere in the same document, it was reported that “the Paige vein mineralization is hosted in quartz-carbonate veining”.
