The Santa Maria property is located in central BC, 37 km south-southwest of Smithers. The property hosts base and precious metal mineralization in Eskay-type and aged rocks, however recent lithogeochemistry has determined that rocks do not have an Eskay-style signature.

The Santa Maria has been explored by geological mapping, soil sampling, EM, SP, and IP surveys, trenching and 2,290 m of diamond drilling in 19 holes. Development work consists of a 36 m shaft and 91 m of drifting on 2 levels.
