Teuton Geoscience Results

peterc — Sat, 07 Jan 2012 22:43:06 +0000

Teuton Resources Corp.(TUO-TSX-V) is pleased to announce the results of a magneto-telluric survey carried out on its Treaty Creek property, located north of Stewart in the Eskay Creek-Sulphurets-Premier region of northwestern British Columbia (the “Golden Triangle”). The survey was conducted last summer by Quantec Geoscience and paid for by Seabridge Gold Inc., owners of the adjacent KSM gold-copper property. It follows part of the route of the proposed tunnel through the Treaty Creek property (the tunnel which Seabridge wishes to build to connect the KSM gold-copper deposits with its millsite situated over 20km to the northeast).

Two prominent areas of very low resistivity have been identified (see map, attached). One occurs at the southwestern end of the survey and is only partially delimited. Another 500m of untested ground lies further to the southwest, in the direction of the common boundary between Teuton’s property and that of Seabridge Gold Inc. Another 800m in the same direction is Seabridge Gold’s Iron Cap copper-gold deposit, which remains open to the northeast.
