Cardston, Alberta–(Newsfile Corp. – September 30, 2019) – American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSXV: AMK) (“American Creek”) (“the Corporation”) is pleased to announce composite results from JV partner Tudor Gold’s ongoing drill program being conducted at the Treaty Creek Project located in the Golden Triangle of NW British Columbia. As announced on September 23, 2019 we now have results from two deep vertical diamond drill holes (drilled to a depth of over 1,000m) and four definition drill holes. All six holes intercepted significant gold mineralization over wide intervals at the Goldstorm Zone.

Goldstorm Extension

Hole GS19-47 was drilled as a 150m step-out from hole GS19-42 (reported July 30, 2019 averaging 0.683 g/t Au over 780m) and was drilled vertically to a total depth of 1,199m, ending in mineralization. The hole contains strong stockwork with gold-bearing mineralization accompanied by significant base-metal disseminated sulphide mineralization averaging 0.589 g/t Au over 1081.5m including an upper interval of 0.828 g/t Au over 301.5m and a lower interval of 0.930 g/t Au over 207 m. The hole was stopped in mineralization due to the drill rig reaching its depth limitation, however, casing was left in the hole for possible continuation next year.

This 150 meter step-out hole confirms that the Goldstorm system is gaining strength to the northeast. With this strongly mineralized intercept, the Goldstorm Zone has been extended by a total of 300m this year from the best hole drilled in 2018 (CB18-39, averaging 0.981 g/t Au over 563.8m) and has now been traced along strike for over 800 meters.

Goldstorm Definition Drilling

A second deep vertical hole, GS19-48, was drilled to a total depth of 1035m from the same pad as CB18-39 (drilled in 2018). The results exhibit excellent continuity of mineralization between holes and this drill hole returned 0.725 g/t Au over 838.5m, including a near surface interval of 328.5m averaging 1.048 g/t gold Au.

Four footwall definition holes (GS19-43 to GS19-46) drilled on section 109+00 NE, were successful in extending the width of the mineralized zone, to the southeast into the footwall of the controlling fault structure.

  • Hole GS19-43 returned an average of 0.566 g/t Au over 493.5m;
  • Hole GS19-44 returned an average of 0.807 g/t Au over 267m including 1.065 g/t Au over 150m;
  • Hole GS19-45 returned an average of 0.719 g/t Au over 325.5m including 1.000 g/t Au over 173m.
  • Hole GS19-46 returned an average of 0.510g/t Au over 594m including 0.734 g/t Au over 162m.

Tudor Gold Exploration Manager, Ken Konkin explains: “Given the success of the two deep drill holes GS19-47 and GS19-48, the Goldstorm System shows no signs of weakening to the northeast and several more drill holes will be needed to find the length and depth of this huge gold system. Hole GS19-47 showed a very strong quartz stockwork system and was still in gold values at the end of the 1,199 meter drill hole. The bottom of GS19-47 averages 0.930 g/t Au over 207 meters. This is the first time we’ve seen this strength of gold mineralization at depth. Furthermore, a strong copper association was encountered with gold values at depth in both GS19-47 and GS19-48.

A 151.5m zone of 0.22% copper with 0.572 g/t gold was intercepted from 665.0 to 816.5 meters in GS19-47 and a 66.0m zone of 0.35% copper with 0.958 g/t gold was intercepted from 874.5 to 940.5m in GS19-48.

Not only does the Goldstorm Zone remain open at depth and along strike, we are now seeing base-metal associations possibly as part of a zonation within the metal system.”

The following table provides gold composites from all nine 2019 drill holes completed on five sections that cut the Goldstorm Zone

Goldstorm Zone Drill Section 109+00 NE, 111+00 NE and 114+00 NE

Section 114+00 NE is a 300 m step-out on strike from 111+00 NE and hole GS19-47 hosts what is now the longest and deepest gold intercept on the project to date.

Section 111+00 NE shows the consistency of the upper horizon gold grades between holes and new depth extension in hole GS19-48.

Section 109+00 NE shows four definition holes drilled this season to better outline the extent of the zone to the southeast.

Goldstorm Zone Plan Map

The Goldstorm Zone now extends more than 800 meters in strike length and remains open along strike to the Northeast and Southwest as well as to depth.

Goldstorm zone drill sections and the plan map are included at the bottom of the news release.

The diamond drilling program continues with two drill rigs. Additional results will be announced as they become available.

Walter Storm, Tudor Gold President and CEO, stated: “I am very pleased to see that all nine holes drilled have reported very good results and we have not missed on any step-out targets nor any footwall extension holes, they were all hits. These results have proven that we have an excellent understanding of the structure, geology and mineralogy of this massive gold system. I am looking forward to continuing our exploration efforts in order to unlock the full potential of this large gold system.”

Darren Blaney, American Creek CEO, stated: “The Goldstorm deposit continues to produced world-class intercepts that are both deep and yet very strong close to surface. Hole GS-19-48 carries 0.725 g/t Au over 838.5m including a near surface interval of 1.048 g/t over 328.5m. It’s just one of many holes that extend to depth ending in mineralization.

In referring to the step out hole GS-19-47 (0.589 g/t Au over 1081.5m including an upper interval of 0.828 g/t Au over 301.5m and a lower interval of 0.930 g/t Au over 207 m), Eric Sprott stated “That’s a huge, huge, huge intersection! I’ve always thought this thing has an easy shot of coming up with 20 million ounces of low-grade gold and there’s nothing in these results that will deter me from thinking that, and they’re well positioned in terms of logistics”. What we’re really excited about is the richer intersections for hundreds of meters close to surface throughout the entire Goldstorm system. While this system is proving to be very deep, the reality is it’s also becoming a rich gold system close to surface that lends itself towards the possibility of being open pit mined”.

American Creek’s $AMK.ca Goldstorm Deposit A Strong Alternative to Seabridge’s KSM $SII.ca $SA $SKE.ca $TUD.ca $PVG.ca $SPMT.ca $GTT.ca $III.ca $GGI.ca $SEA.ca

Posted by AGORACOM at 9:25 AM on Wednesday, September 11th, 2019

The drilling success at American Creek’s Treaty Creek property in BC’s Golden Triangle is showing the potential to give shareholders the type of return experienced by investors in the neighbouring Seabridge KSM a decade ago.  Treaty Creek’s Goldstorm deposit is producing world class results including 563m of 0.98 g/t gold and the most recent hole; a 780 meter intercept of 0.683 g/t gold including a high grade upper portion of 1.095 g/t over 370.5 meters.  There are some distinct advantages that the Goldstorm has over the KSM which puts American Creek in a uniquely undervalued position within the area.

3 Critical Factors Highlight Treaty Creek Advantage Over KSM:

  1. Treaty Creek Similarities to KSM:
  • Part of the same Sulphurets Hydrothermal System that contains a mind boggling 188M oz gold, 1.2B oz silver and 55B lbs of copper (all categories) to date (P&P reserves of 47M oz Au, 214M oz Ag, and 10B lbs Cu)
  • Same trend – deposits occur about every 2-3 km going north with gold grades increasing as the system extends northward – The Goldstorm zone on Treaty Creek is the most northerly deposit
  • Same Sulphurets thrust fault which Seabridge states was responsible for the KSM deposits – same type of mineral formation beneath the fault
  • Same types of world-scale deposits (Porphyry and intrusion related) on both properties
Large deposits are found near the red “discovery line” and the Sulphurets fault

 2. Treaty Creek Advantages over KSM:

  • Better logistics – Treaty Creek is located on “the right side of the mountain”  with direct access to power and highway leading to the shipping port
  • Potentially better grades with initial estimates of 1.25 g/t Au at the Goldstorm / Copper Belle Deposit
  • Potential open pit design requiring a fraction of the capital cost of KSM with a shorter pay back period
  • Unlike the KSM which consists of copper deposits with low-grade gold, Goldstorm is a gold deposit and does not rely on the value other metals
  • At the discovery stage of the mining life-cycle where biggest gains are typically made. AMK offers considerable more shareholder upside with each ounce added compared to KSM.

3. KSM dependence on Treaty Creek:

  • KSM is dependent on twin 22.8km tunnels (MTT), of which 12.2km lies within the Treaty Creek mineral tenures, to get KSM ore to a proposed processing facility and tailings pond
  • The proposed route for the MTT runs through Treaty Creek in the same general location as the following:
    • The Kyba Discovery Line – a major geological marker for large deposits
    • The Sulphurets thrust fault – a major geological marker for large deposits
    • Geoclastic sequencing – a major geological marker for large deposits
    • Magnetotelluric anomalies indicating potential large mineral deposits
    • Magnetic anomalies indicating potential large mineral deposits
    • Electromagnetic anomalies indicating potential deposits
    • Mineralized zones on surface including the SW, AW, and Konkin zones
    • Mineralized zones to depth including Copper Belle, GR2, and Goldstorm zones
    • Seabridge requires consent from Treaty Creek owners for tunnels that would intersect potential deposits
  • The proposed route for the MTT runs directly through the mineralized zones on the Goldstorm currently being developed for an open pit mining operation

Treaty Creek Project Summary Click Here: Treaty Creek Summary

American Creek has already increased close to 300% since spring and yet only the initial results from the Goldstorm have come out.  Based on the geology, geophysics, and results so far it looks as though things have just started for the company.  A major drill program is presently being conducted at Treaty Creek by JV partner and operator Tudor Gold. There are now two drills working on the Goldstorm zone with the objective of defining a significant maiden gold resource. The last hole reported included a 780 meter intercept of 0.683 g/t gold including a higher grade upper portion of 1.095 g/t over 370.5 meters. The Treaty Creek Project is a Joint Venture with Tudor Gold owning 60% and acting as operator, with American Creek holding a 20% interest in the project. American Creek is fully carried until such time as a Production Notice is issued. Until such time, Tudor is required to fund all exploration and development costs while American Creek has a “free ride”.

$AMK.ca American Creek Reports on Successful PDAC, Red Cloud and RAISE Events in Toronto $SEA $SA $SKE.ca $TUD.ca $PVG $MRO.ca

Posted by AGORACOM at 9:26 AM on Tuesday, March 12th, 2019
https://s3.amazonaws.com/s3.agoracom.com/public/companies/logos/562696/hub/HubLogoLarge2_copy.jpg

Cardston, Alberta–(Newsfile Corp. – March 12, 2019) – American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSXV: AMK) (“American Creek”) (the “Company”) is pleased to report on the RAISE at the PDAC: 1X1 Small-Cap Resource Conference, the Red Cloud 2019 Pre-PDAC Mining Showcase, as well as the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) annual conference.

The RAISE at the PDAC: 1X1 Small-Cap Resource Conference was an exclusive event for investors and finance individuals who invest in resource stocks to meet one-on-one with companies throughout the day in a series of meetings and presentations. American Creek met with a steady flow of high net worth individuals, brokers, and fund managers throughout the day.

The Red Cloud 2019 Pre-PDAC Mining Showcase was a sold-out event with some 500 investors attending the conference where American Creek had a booth and also did a “Dragons Den” style presentation to a panel of important industry financial representatives. Red Cloud is a big supporter of exploration companies operating in the Golden Triangle region of BC and American Creek has had recent discussions with Red Cloud management regarding working together going forward.

The PDAC conference had over 25,000 people attend even though they charged daily admission for the first time. American Creek had a very busy booth and was also invited to give a corporate presentation at the conference.

There were two noticeable differences observed by Company representatives at the PDAC conference this year. One was a palpable excitement in general for precious metals, more particularly gold and silver. The overall sentiment amongst “the experts” giving presentations and the investors we interacted with was one of optimism and expectations for a rise in both gold and silver prices as the year progresses.

The second, and of particular significance to American Creek, was the impressive amount of exposure and recognition that B.C.’s Golden Triangle has achieved. Exploration in that region now equals the rest of the province put together. The experts, analysts and letter writers were all talking about it, and most people who we interacted with knew about or were planning to invest in Golden Triangle companies and projects. It appears that a new Golden Triangle “gold rush” may be in the making. As American Creek has operated in the Golden Triangle region for almost 15 years and has three noteworthy projects there, we are well positioned to benefit from this building excitement.

Having the Treaty Creek JV property with a fully carried interest next to the Brucejack/Valley of Kings (VOK) mine (Pretivm) and the largest undeveloped gold deposit in the world by reserves (Seabridge) with similar geology, geophysics and structure positions American Creek for potential significant growth.

Investors were impressed with and excited about Ken Konkin (former head geologist for Pretivm and instrumental in the discovery and development of the Brucejack / VOK mine) now heading our JV partner Tudor Gold’s geological team to develop Treaty Creek. Many shareholders were able to talk with Mr. Konkin at the PDAC conference. In discussions with Mr. Konkin, the three items concerning the Treaty Creek project that he is most excited about are:

  • The geology, geophysics and structure are showing potential for similar scale to the rest of the Sulphurets Hydrothermal System, and the drilling to date is confirming.

  • Generally speaking, the string of porphyry related deposits running through the Sulphurets Hydrothermal system have stronger gold equivalent grades the further north you go. The Goldstorm deposit on our Treaty Creek property is richer in gold and total gold equivalent than the KSM deposits further to the south.

  • Treaty Creek is “on the right side of the hill” where there is direct access to highway 37 and the high-power transmission line making logistics markedly better than for deposits further south.

Investors were also excited to learn that American Creek owns 100% of the former operating high-grade Dunwell mine located just 8km from the shipping port in Stewart, B.C., with highway and power lines running through it. The Bear River valley is quickly becoming a hotbed of activity including many recent mergers and acquisitions and our Dunwell property has the richest historical grades and production in the valley. There is also now an opportunity to provide a nearby soon to open mine with mill feed from the Dunwell. In addition to investor interest, we presently have serious interest in the project from several different companies. American Creek is planning on commencing drilling at the Dunwell project within the next 90 days. The objective of that program will be to confirm that under the old workings there are additional significant high-grade extensions of the previously mined gold/silver ore body.

As mentioned in our previous release, American Creek granted Tudor an additional extension for the previously announced option to buy out the Corporation’s 40% interest in the Electrum Project Joint Venture located near Stewart, British Columbia. Tudor paid American Creek a non-refundable payment of $50,000 upon entering the original agreement. If the option is exercised by Tudor, a further payment of $2,650,000 will be made to American Creek on or before April 15, 2019.

The combination of American Creek working on the Dunwell while its JV partner develops Treaty Creek, and either receiving an additional $2,650,00 or retaining 40% of the Electrum property puts American Creek in one of the strongest positions in the Golden Triangle, which didn’t go unrecognized by both analysts and investors alike.Gold Hill Project Update
The 100% owned Gold Hill project is located in the Boulder Creek drainage, a tributary of the Wildhorse River east of Fort Steele, British Columbia and is a potential source of the downstream placer gold responsible for Canada’s 4th largest gold rush.

A preliminary drill program consisting of approximately 2,000 meters of drilling in four holes on two sections was recently concluded on the property. The objective of the program was to get our first initial look at underground geological structure as prior to this time, no drilling had ever been conducted on the property. Information from this preliminary program will be utilized to model and plan future exploration on a wider scale. Assay results are pending.About American Creek

Exceptional Properties

Electrum Gold-Silver Property, British Columbia – 100% owned

The Electrum property has a rich history with some of the highest grade hand-mined ore mined in North America combined with excellent logistics. The property is located directly between two high-grad vein gold/silver mines; the past producing Silbak Premier mine and Pretiums high-grade Brucejack mine (production in 2017).All three lie within the Iskut mineral district (a particularly prolific part of the Canadian Cordillera) with numerous geological similarities between them.

The Electrum Property holds significant potential to attract mining companies when considering its high-grade nature combined with the exceptional logistics in place.

  • Located in the prolific Golden Triangle of northwestern British Columbia, an area encompassing mineral rich belts that host more than 43 past producing mines including Eskay Creek, Silbak Premier, Granduc and Big Missouri.It is a hotbed of activity with one new mine having come online in 2015 (Imperial Mines Red Chris) and another scheduled for 2017 (Pretium Brucejack) and at least three more world-class mining projects headed toward production.
  • Located in a particularly rich valley with 4 past producing commercial mines and a 5th in the adjacent valley.
  • Includes the historic East Gold Mine that had intermittent small-scale production of approximately 46 tonnes of ore with grades averaging 1,661 grams of gold per tonne and 2,596 grams of silver per tone (roughly 50oz gold with 75oz silver).
  • Mineralization is believed to be very similar to the silver-gold-base metal veins responsible for the precious metal mineralization found in the Silbak Premier Mine and the Big Missouri mines (located in same extended valley).
  • Pretiums Brucejack Summary Report (for exploration) compares itself geologically to the Silbak Premier mine as well.
  • Exceptional gold and silver assays including 440 g/t gold with 400 g/t silver over 0.52m, with numerous silver intervals of 583g/t, 501 g/t, 420 g/t, 384 g/t in core, and surface samples of 80.96 g/t gold with 80,818 g/t silver, 694 g/t gold with 550 g/t silver, 54.77 g/t gold with 14,903 g/t silver, 615 g/t gold with 616 g/t silver.
  • A very successful program was run in 2015 wherein:
    • A new approach focusing on high-grade was employed very successfully
    • A new zone of gold / silver mineralization was discovered
    • A better understanding of the property geology was obtained
    • Surface samples from the structure averages 27,092 gm/tonne silver and 248 gm/tonne gold



  • The program proved the Electrum Property has multiple high-grade gold-silver epithermal breccia vein systems and gave us a better understating of their sequencing.
  • Excellent logistics including road access, power located 2 km away and a bulk tonnage shipping port and supportive mining town located just40 km away in a mining friendly jurisdiction.

The high-grade ELECTRUM PROPERTY recently had a program run on it. CLICK HERE for the Electrum presentation and HERE for the 2015 drill program presentation. The highly mineralized gossans on the Electrum are shown in the image at the top of this page.

Treaty Creek Gold-Copper Property, British Columbia – 51% Joint Venture

Treaty Creek Property


Treaty Creek is located in British Columbia’s prolific Golden Triangle; one of the richest areas of mineralization in the world with one new mine having come online in 2015 (Imperial Mines Red Chris) and another scheduled for 2017 (Pretium Brucejack) and at least three more world-class mining projects headed toward production.

Mineralization in the Treaty Creek claims area lies within the same broad hydrothermal system that generated the several deposits on the Seabridge Gold KSM and the Pretivm Brucejack properties that lie immediately southwest of the Treaty Creek claims. So far over 130 million ounces of gold, 800 million ounces of silver and 20 billion pounds of copper (all categories included), representing one of the greatest concentrations of metal value on the planet, have been delineated within the geological system shared by KSM, Brucejack, and Treaty Creek.

Seabridge Gold’s KSM is the world’s largest undeveloped gold/silver project by reserves while Pretium’s Brucejack is the highest grading undeveloped large-scale gold project in the world.KSM has just past the environmental and permitting stage while the Brucejack is in construction phase.
Treaty Creek is part of the same large hydrothermal system as it’s neighbours, hosts the same bedrock geology as its neighbours, the same magneto-telluric (MT) anomalies that proved to be large deposits on the neighbours claims, the same major fault system (Sulphurets) that is responsible for KSM’s deposits, and initial exploration and drilling show similar results to initial drilling on KSM.

The Treaty Creek property is in a strategic location as it’s included in Seabridge’s plan for the KSM to go into production. Seabridge has proposed twin tunnels that would take the KSM ore through American Creek’s Treaty Creek property to a processing plant and tailings pond.
