Victoria, BC – TheNewswire - October 8, 2024 – Teuton Resources Corp.  (“Teuton” or “the Company”) (TSX-V:TUO) (Frankfurt:TFE) is pleased to report that Project Operator and Joint Venture (“JV”) partner Tudor Gold ("Tudor") has announced results from the final three holes of the 2024 exploration drilling program (the “Program”) at the Treaty Creek Property, located in the heart of the Golden Triangle of Northwestern British Columbia. The 2024 Program was recently completed, totaling 10,530 meters (m) with all crews and drilling equipment demobilized from site.

The Supercell-One Zone (SC-1) was identified earlier this year to represent a significant potential economic target that is within, and peripheral to, the CS-600 Domain. The discovery of a fourth sub-parallel gold bearing breccia system (SC-1D) continues the expansion of the Supercell-One system. Drillhole GS-24-187 intersected 10.92 g/t AuEq over 3.00 m within SC-1C and 5.70 g/t AuEq over 3.00 m within a newly discovered SC-1D zone, both occurring within a strongly mineralized envelope that returned 1.43 g/t AuEq over 99.00 m. The gold-rich SC-1 system occurs within an area measuring up to 800 m in length by 400 m in depth. All four stacked, sub-parallel structures remain open in all directions and to depth.

Drilling Highlights:

 

Hole GS-24-185 intersected a 150 m eastward step-out of the CS-600 Domain and the new SC-1D zone.

Ken Konkin, President and CEO of Tudor Gold, commented: “We are extremely pleased to announce the continued discovery of multiple sub-parallel, stacked, micro-breccia systems within the Supercell Complex. The consistent high-grade gold intercepts were discovered from the wide-spaced step-out drilling targeting the open-ended CS-600 domain in the northern and eastern areas of the Goldstorm Deposit. Crews were pleasantly surprized to observe consistent gold mineralization within the series of late-stage gold-dominant quartz-pyrite micro-breccia structures. We also reviewed and re-interpreted an earlier intercept from hole GS-24-185 that was initially thought to have been an off-set to Supercell-1C (SC-1C) but subsequent drilling confirmed that this 13.5 m intercept of 9.60 g/t AuEq belongs to Supercell-1D which lies directly below SC-1C as it appears to be an individual splay emanating from SC-1C as a new sub-parallel Supercell-1D (SC-1D). This newly discovered SC-1D was also intersected by drill hole GS-24-187 and yielded 3.0 m of 5.7 g/t AuEq. Additionally, an 85 m northward step-out with hole GS-24-186 intersected 10.40 g/t AuEq over 1.5 m, within the SC-1A breccia zone, the uppermost micro-breccia system discovered to-date. Our wide-spaced step-out drilling was equally successful in expanding the CS-600 domain well outside the known area of the Goldstorm Deposit towards the northeast. Significant gold, copper and silver mineralization was encountered with the 150 m eastward step-out hole GS-24-185 (1.01 g/t AuEq over 200.5 m) and the 120 m northern step-out hole GS-24-187 that intersected 1.22 g/t AuEq over 115.5 m. Although the Goldstorm Deposit remains open in all directions and at depth, our priority focus is on the Supercell Complex. This system holds great potential for enhancing the economic advantage of the Treaty Creek Project. The Goldstorm Deposit now contains a high-grade component that can be traced for over 800 m along a northern axis with a moderate westward dipping axis that measures over 400m. Our goal is to expand the limits of the four newly discovered Supercell structures to maximize the economic potential of these gold-dominant breccia systems as a possible starter mine, and to gain access to the CS-600 domain by utilizing the same infrastructure required to potentially mine the Supercell material. It is unknown if we will ever reach the limits of the Goldstorm Deposit as our technical team will concentrate all efforts on the high-grade portions of the Deposit. We plan to review other gold-dominant sub-domains such as R-66 and 300N that appear to have similar structural controls, and are composed of similar quartz-pyrite micro-breccia veinlets, to hopefully add to the growing high-grade gold story of the Goldstorm Deposit at Treaty Creek, within the heart of the Golden Triangle.”

 

Drilling Discussion

 

Section A

• GS-24-185: This hole was drilled to step out 140 m from previously drilled SC-1C mineralization, as well as infilling CS-600 mineralization at depth. The hole intersected13.50 m grading 9.60 g/t AuEq (9.58 g/t Au, 0.44 g/t Ag, 0.01% Cu) which is now interpreted as occurring within a fourth zone (SC-1D) of the network of subparallel brecciated Supercell-One complex of structures. This hole also intersected 200.50 m grading 1.01 g/t AuEq (0.92 g/t Au, 2.69 g/t Ag, 0.05% Cu) of the CS-600 Domain representing a 150 m step-out towards the east.  

*Previously reported (September 10th, 2024)

• GS-24-186: This hole was drilled to intersect SC-1 structures and CS-600 mineralization to the north. An intercept of 10.40 g/t AuEq over 1.50 m (9.78 g/t Au, 22.46 g/t Ag, 0.02% Cu) represents an 85 m northward step-out of the SC-1A zone. Additionally, the CS-600 domain was intersected over 45.00 m grading 1.21 g/t AuEq (0.86 g/t Au, 2.16 g/t Ag, 0.26% Cu). 

• GS-24-187: This 150 m – 200 m northeastward step-out hole tested the extents of multiple SC-1 zones as well as the CS-600 Domain. The hole intersected a wide envelope of Au rich mineralization surrounding intercepts of SC-1C and SC-1D zones, totalling 99.00 m grading 1.43 g/t AuEq (1.36 g/t Au, 2.21 g/t Ag, 0.04% Cu), which  included 10.92 g/t AuEq over 3.00 m (10.89 g/t Au, 0.97 g/t Ag, 0.02% Cu) within the SC-1C zone, and 5.70 g/t AuEq over 3.00 m (5.65 g/t Au, 0.95 g/t Ag, 0.03% Cu) within the SC-1D zone. A further intercept of CS-600: 1.22 g/t AuEq over 115.50 m (0.75 g/t Au, 2.22 g/t Ag, 0.36% Cu) expanded the CS-600 domain over 120 m to the north.

About Treaty Creek

Teuton was the original staker of the Treaty Creek property, host to the large Goldstorm deposit, assembling the core land position in 1985.  It presently holds a 20% carried interest in the Treaty Creek Project (Tudor Gold is responsible for paying all exploration costs up until such time as a production decision is made and owns a 60% interest; American Creek Resources owns the remaining 20% interest, also carried).  Additionally, Teuton owns a 0.98% Net Smelter Royalty in the Goldstorm deposit area as well as in the northern portion of the Perfectstorm zone; within the southern portion of the Perfectstorm zone, Teuton owns a 0.49% NSR with an option to increase that to 1.49% by paying $1 million to the current owner.  It also owns numerous additional royalty interests within the Sulphurets Hydrothermal system on formerly 100%-owned properties such as the King Tut, Tuck, High North, Orion, Delta and Fairweather properties (King Tut and Tuck now owned by Newmont Mining; High North, Orion, Delta and Fairweather properties now owned by Goldstorm Metals).

The Treaty Creek Project contains the Goldstorm Deposit (a large gold-copper porphyry system) as well as several other mineralized zones.

2024 Drill Program Complete at Del Norte Property; 11 Holes Intersect K-Zone

Teuton is pleased to announce that it has received the following report summarizing work at the K Zone on the Del Norte property in 2024 from optionee Decade Resources (“Decade”):  Twelve holes totalling 2,014.5 m of NQ sized core were completed during the 2024 drill program with one lost before encountering the K Zone. Drill holes were approximately 200m long using an A-5 drill capable of drilling at low angle dips. Holes were drilled to test beneath the 2002 and 2006 drilling and trenching programs. The drill holes tested 200m below the 2002 and 2006 work along approximately 50m of strike length.

The following results were obtained In 2002 and 2006 trenching on the K Zone:

 

Year of Trenching	Width (m)	Au g/t	Ag g/t
2002	10	6.14	630.86
2006	15	3.93	267.59

 

The 2002 sampling was 50m downhill from the 2006 sampling which was above the 2002 drilling. With the recent ablation of the glacial ice, more of the K zone is exposed below the 2002 sampling which was the focus of the 2024 exploration. Work was focused on expanding the drill results obtained below:

Drill hole	Width (m)	Au g/t	Ag g/t
2002-01	31.3	3.57	192.3
2002-02	32.9	4.59	176.7
2002-03	23.4	7.64	277.3

 

Except for DDH-DN-24-1 (which deviated and broke to surface), all holes encountered the K zone at the sediment-felsic volcanic contact. The zone is marked by faulted and brecciated sediment, sheared and silicified dacite ash tuffs and dacitic dykes that are variably silicified with chalcedonic quartz, vuggy quartz with small crystals in the vugs and blue-grey quartz with pyrite-sphalerite-galena-tetrahedrite mineralization.

The Del Norte property is located 34km east of Stewart in the Skeena Mining Division.  The property consists of 13 mineral tenures (claims) covering 5830 hectares in which Decade had the right to earn up to a 55% interest. To earn this interest, Decade had to incur $4,000,000.00 in expenditures in a 5 year period and make option payments.  Decade has the right to earn an additional 20% by placing the property into production.

Decade states that all payments have been made and in excess of $4,000,000.00 in exploration has been spent.

The Del Norte project covers an eight-kilometre-long north-south mineralized belt that hosts multiple gold showings in the same geological environment as the Eskay Creek gold mine. Significantly, three gold-bearing streams intersect the property; namely Nelson, Del Norte and Willoughby Creeks with Nelson Creek supporting a gold placer mining operation in the 1930s.

Drilling was completed from a drill station built on a narrow ridge to test the down dip extension of the K Zone (Kosciuszko Zone/ SP) that has been explored by a few holes and several trenches in previous programs. The zone mineralization is associated with quartz veins and breccias which are spatially restricted to felsic packages of rocks. The felsic volcanics are located stratigraphically at the same geological horizon as that hosting the Eskay Creek deposit.
