Question 1: Was 2♣ GF?
Yes: Bid 3♣ now, planning to play 3NT opposite 3 small.
No: Go to question 2.
Question 2: Was 2♠ GF?
I would say no in this case, so I now... PASS.
Partner's hand might be:
♠Kxx
♥AQxxx
♦x
♣Qxxx

Partner is making a slam invite.
On the negative side:
I'm close to minimum in high card strenght.
My trumps are poor.
On the positive side:
I've got 5 controls.
I've got a decent side suit.
I've got i kicker in partners suit.
All in all I've got a better than minimum hand and will cooperate in slam exploration. Now it's down to agreements how to do that. Some would go on describing shape (3♣), some would cuebid (3♦) and some would show concentration of strength (3♦).

Agree 100%. For me, though, I'd bid 2NT, denying two of the top three spades. After 3♣ by partner (the only call where it matters), I can bid 3♦ to show two of the top three honors in diamonds.
