Teuton Resources Corp. Drilling to Start on Golden Triangle Properties
26 July 2016 - 10:30PM
Teuton Resources Corp. (“Teuton”) (TSX-V:TUO)
(Frankfurt:TFE) (OTCBB:TEUTF) is pleased to announce that
diamond drilling is set to begin August 5, 2016 on its properties
in the Golden Triangle region of northwestern British
Columbia. Up to four properties are slated for drilling
during the field season.
Teuton currently owns interests in fifteen
properties in the area located south of the Brucejack property of
Pretium Resources and the KSM property of Seabridge Gold.
Seven of these properties are currently under option: Tudor
Gold has optioned the High North, Orion, Delta and Fairweather
properties; Pretium Resources has optioned the King Tut and Tuck
properties, and; Rotation Minerals has optioned the Four J’s
property [see Location Map:
http://teuton.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Interediatebiggoldmap.pdf.]
All of these properties lie along, or in close
proximity to, the “red line” identified by BC government regional
geologist Jeff Kyba as being prospective for the discovery of large
mineral deposits. The red line marks the contact between
Stuhini Triassic rocks and Hazelton Jurassic rocks. Within this
area, Teuton’s Big Gold property and Pearson property have been
selected for drilling in 2016.
A brief prospecting program on the Big Gold in
2015 discovered a zone of sericite schists containing anomalous to
highly anomalous gold and silver values along a hundred metre long
interval. Further rock geochemical sampling is required to
delimit the zone after which higher grade sections will be drilled.
Teuton’s Pearson property was formerly owned by
Bell Copper and, later, Castle Resources. A 100% interest in
the property was transferred to Teuton in early 2016.
Castle Resources defined a 2km long, drill
target on the Pearson property by modeling of certain geophysical
anomalies identified in a 2010 airborne survey. In a Feb. 27,
2013 news release, Castle stated: “This feature trends
north-south, exhibits a conductivity greater than 13 mS/m and
extends over a strike length exceeding 2 km, dipping approximately
15 degrees to the south. This feature extends to surface at
location (NAD 83 UTM Zone 9) 419235 E, 6234560 N, and the majority
of the feature begins 200 m below surface, representing a potential
near-surface drill target. This conductive feature is located
within a magnetic low and bounded to the east by a magnetic high
(0.01 nT).”
The anomaly can be seen on the attached map at

Although Castle Resources stated their intention
to drill the “massive anomaly” later in the year, they never
did. Teuton plans to drill the anomaly in 2016 after
conducting some routine sampling programs to identify optimal sites
for drill pads.
One area close to the anomaly contains sections
with abundant green copper stain. Photographs taken by Teuton
personnel in 2006 can be seen on the Company website under “Pearson
Property”.
Readers are cautioned that the geophysical
anomaly has not been verified by Teuton’s Qualified Person, D.
Cremonese, P.Eng., as he was not involved in its identification and
interpretation. However, Mr. Cremonese has no reason to
believe that the work done by Castle Resources and substantiated by
their Qualified Person (as announced in its February 2013 release),
is unreliable.
Teuton also plans to drill its Konkin Silver and
Del Norte properties during the 2016 field season. Both
of these properties are located east of Stewart, BC, in the Red
Mountain area, currently being explored by IDM Mining.
Details on these programs will be announced at a later date.
