The Alice Shea Jade occurrence is located about 62 kilometres east-southeast of the community of Dease Lake.
The showing is underlain by upper Mississippian to Permian ultramafic rocks of the Cache Creek Complex consisting of peridotite, dunite and pyroxenite which are generally serpentinized.
These rocks locally include pods or lenses of nephrite jade, two of which occur in east-west zones of altered serpentinite near the confluence of Alice Shea Creek with Wheaton Creek (Geological Survey of Canada Open File 2779). The northern zone is mainly talc but the southern is reported to be 18.3 metres wide, containing some good quality jade. The contact with the encompassing serpentinite is not exposed.
During July and August of 2007, Turnagain River Exploration Ltd. conducted a reconnaissance exploration program over the Turnagain property, consisting of prospecting and heavy mineral concentrate stream sediment sampling over at least seven showings (King Kong, 104I 067; Spring, 104I 110; King Mountain, 104I 108; PR8, 104I 109; PR7, 104I 107; Alice Shea Jade, 104I 104; and Alice Shea Creek, 104I 005).
