The Harry Property is located north of Stewart, British Columbia, in the Skeena Mining Division. It consists of 3 contiguous claims that cover a gross area of approximately 1,333 hectares.

In 2020, a new zone of mineralization called the “Milestone” was discovered on the Harry property averaging 7.86 oz/ton gold (269.5 g/t) across a 2 metre width.   The full width of this new zone has not been defined due to overburden cover.

About Teuton

Teuton owns interests in more than thirty properties in the prolific “Golden Triangle” area of northwest British Columbia and was one of the first companies to adopt what has since become known as the “prospect generator” model.  Teuton earned $3.9 million net income in 2020 and a further $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2021.  Its income is derived from option payments. 

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 Treaty Creek (carried until such time as a production decision is made).  Interested parties can access information about Teuton at the Company’s website, www.teuton.com.
