There is a long history of exploration and production from Porcher Island including the Surf Point and Edye Pass gold mines.

Most notable in these claims are the Promise and the Mascot showings.

The Promise showing occurs in the northwest corner of Porcher Island, a few hundred metres northwest of the Edye Pass Mine. This showing contains a sheared quartz vein, 30 centimetres wide, strikes east and dips 60 degrees south within Cretaceous to Tertiary quartz diorite of the Coast Plutonic Complex near its contact with Paleozoic-Mesozoic metasediments. Mineralization consists of blebs and streaks of auriferous pyrite.

The vein is sheared and is up to 1 metre wide and 20 metres long. Mineralization consists of stringers of pyrite. A selected sample assayed 27 grams per tonne gold and 41 grams per tonne silver (Minister of Mines Annual Report 1933, page 42). All resource figures were compiled prior to and are not compliant with National Instrument 43-101 requirements.

There is a small community on Porcher Island, infrastructure is excellent and easy access either by water or air is available from Prince Rupert. The property can be worked year-round.
