On Monday February 1st, 2021 John published a new chart showing the stock pricing for the Treaty companies compared to the value of Treaty Creek that each company owns.  In American Creek’s case it is trading at a 74% discount to its contractual value of “20% of Treaty Creek”. 
 
Below are Johns notes and charts:
Déjà vu all over again AMK owns a 20% carried interest in the Treaty Creek Gold Project located in BC’s Golden Triangle.  Tudor (TUD) owns 60%, Teuton (TUO) 20%, and American Creek (AMK) 20%. As Highlighted in the spread sheet below. AMK is trading at a 74% discount to Tudor (at $2.50 per share).  This represents the same deep undervaluation compared to Tudor as when AMK was trading under $0.10 per share. Recently completed 45,600 meter highly successful drill program to expand and extend gold mineralization at Treaty Creek.  The deposit remains open in all directions. Maiden resource is being calculated and will be announced soon. Tudor’s technical chart breaking the short-term downtrend line after last years big run. AMK has exchange, regulatory, and shareholder approval for their “Stinger” spin-out to add shareholder value, giving shareholders a cash rich past producer next to Ascot Resources. Strong insiders share ownership of AMK shares, aligning with shareholders

American Creek Provides Update on Its First Quarter Filings

Treaty Creek resource could represent one of the largest gold deposit discoveries found in North America in the past 10 years!”

“If Tudor Gold lives up to the high expectations of market participants and has a powerful gold resource of 15-30 million ounces of gold on Treaty Creek, we believe that an unprecedented takeover battle for one of the most attractive gold projects in Canada will ensue”

These statements are taken from JS Research’s latest report (found below) on Treaty Creek and our JV partner Tudor Gold.  The report highlights this year’s 45,600m program at Treaty Creek as we look forward to the initial resource calculation on the property. 

The Treaty Creek Project is a Joint Venture with Tudor Gold owning 3/5th and acting as operator. American Creek and Teuton Resources each have a 1/5th interest in the project creating a 3:1 ownership relationship between Tudor Gold and American Creek. American Creek and Teuton are both fully carried until such time as a Production Notice is issued, at which time they are required to contribute their respective 20% share of development costs. Until such time, Tudor is required to fund all exploration and development costs while both American Creek and Teuton have “free rides”.
 
American Creek has not independently confirmed the technical information in the JS Research report.

American Creek Provides Update on Its First Quarter Filings

There is a lot we could say about American Creek Resources (AMK:TSXV) Treaty Creek Project but you might accuse of us of making it up, so we’ll let the words of 4 much smarter and wealthier people do all the talking:

Eric Sprott, Billionaire Investor and 2X Investor In American Creek Resources

“It certainly looks like they have 20 million ounces and they could easily get to 30 or 40 or 50 million ounces (of gold)” – July 24, 2020

Darren Blaney, President & CEO American Creek Resources

“Clearly, we have a massive, world-class gold system that still shows no signs of weakening to the northeast nor at depth.”

Walter Storm, CEO Tudor Gold (JV Partner) And Financier Of Osisko Gold Reaching $4.5 Billion Market Cap

“These results have proven that we have an excellent understanding of the structure, geology and mineralogy of this massive gold system.”

Ken Konkin , Tudor Gold Exploration Manager (Credited With Discovering Brucejack Mine Just South Of Treaty Creek) 

“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.

With a maiden resource estimate now expected over the next few months and the last set of drill results now announced, including 3.286 gpt AuEq over 82.5 Meters, Within 531.0 Meters of 0.999 gpt AuEq investors should grab their favourite beverage and watch this interview with American Creek Resources.

American Creek’s JV Partner Tudor Gold Intersects 3.286 gpt AuEq over 82.5 Meters Within 531.0 Meters of 0.999 gpt AuEq at Treaty Creek $TUD.ca $SII.ca $GTT.ca $AFF.ca $SEA.ca $SA $PVG.ca $AOT.ca $ESK.ca

American Creek Provides Update on Its First Quarter Filings
  • Best near-surface intercept was from the 300 Horizon in GS-20-91 on Section 112+50 NE that averaged 0.856 gpt AuEq over 1033.5 meters containing an enriched portion of 532.5 meters (60.0-592.5 m) that averaged 1.112 gpt AuEq.
  • GS-20-92 also had a remarkable 82.5 meter intercept (213.0-295.5 m) of 3.286 gpt AuEq within the 300 Horizon, which is the highest grade gold composite interval drilled to date on the project. This lies within a longer intercept of 531.0 meters (90.0-621.0 m) averaging 0.999 gpt AuEq.

Cardston, Alberta–(Newsfile Corp. – January 7, 2021) – American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSXV: AMK) (“the Corporation”) is very pleased to present results for the last set of 2020 diamond drill holes for the Goldstorm Zone at their JV flagship property, Treaty Creek. The project is located within the heart of the Golden Triangle of Northwestern British Columbia which is on-trend from Seabridge’s KSM Project located five kilometers southwest of the Goldstorm Zone. Results from sampling of 9,621.7 meters of HQ and NQ2 core, from 11 diamond drill holes, have recently been received from MSA Labs. American Creek’s JV partner, Tudor Gold has completed 50 diamond drill holes at the Goldstorm System (GS) and three diamond drill holes at the Perfect Storm Zone (PSZ), for respective totals of approximately 44,000 meters (GS) and 1,600 meters (PSZ) during the 2020 exploration season. It was necessary to abandon two of the final drill holes as ground conditions prevented the safe completion of GS-20-99 and GS-20-101 late in the season, however, significant gold and silver mineralization was encountered in GS-20-99 (0.647 gpt AuEq over 109.5 meters) and this hole ended in strong stockwork within the DS5 System. Unfortunately drill hole GS-20-101 was abandoned before intersecting the area of the intended target and this hole will be re-drilled in 2021. From the remaining 51 drill holes, all but one were successful in intersecting the intended targets.

Tudor Gold’s Vice President of Project Development, Ken Konkin, P.Geo., stated: “We are very pleased with the results obtained from our 2020 exploration program and we anticipate the completion of an initial resource estimate over the next few months. We are also determined to continue the exploration efforts in 2021 to better define and potentially expand the Goldstorm and Perfect Storm Systems. It was not possible to attempt drilling at some of our high priority exploration targets due to the rapid accumulation of snow in late November and December that caused avalanche hazards, therefore, these sites remain as excellent drill targets. We have since received our explosives permit and have purchased an explosives magazine so our avalanche teams can now safely remove snow build-up for the up-coming exploration season. Our goal is to again have a late spring start-up so that we can effectively prepare the slopes to allow drilling in the northeast area of the Goldstorm System that was not completed in 2020. The Au-Ag-Cu mineralization remains open to the northeast and to the southeast, with the possible exception of section 114+00 NE, where the easternmost drill hole (GS-20-102) may have defined the southeast limit in that area.”

Goldstorm Highlights include:

  • Eleven diamond drill holes in this news release totaling 9,621.7 meters; the favorable composite results are listed in Table 1 below.
  • Best near-surface intercept was from the 300 Horizon in GS-20-91 on Section 112+50 NE that averaged 0.856 gpt AuEq over 1033.5 meters (60.0-1093.5 m) containing an enriched portion of 532.5 meters (60.0-592.5 m) that averaged 1.112 gpt AuEq.
  • GS-20-92 also had a remarkable 82.5 meter intercept (213.0-295.5 m) of 3.286 gpt AuEq within the 300 Horizon, which is the highest grade gold composite interval drilled to date on the project. This lies within a longer intercept of 531.0 meters (90.0-621.0 m) averaging 0.999 gpt AuEq.
  • An aggressive 150 meter step-out drill hole (GS-20-99) extended the DS-5 Zone further to southeast on section 115+50 NE. The intercept averaged 0.647 gpt AuEq over 109.5 meters (855.5-965.0 m). The hole was lost at 965.0 meters in strong stockwork and DS5-type mineralization. The system remains open to the northeast and southeast along Section 115+50 NE.

  • 1.078 gpt AuEq over 345.0 Meters Within 921.0 Meters of 0.821 gpt AuEq (Hole GS-20-83) at the Goldstorm Zone, Treaty Creek, Located in B.C.’s Golden Triangle

Cardston, Alberta–(Newsfile Corp. – December 16, 2020) – American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSXV: AMK) (“the Corporation”) is pleased to present results for the fifth set of diamond drill holes for the Goldstorm Zone at their flagship property, Treaty Creek. The project is located in the heart of the Golden Triangle of northwestern British Columbia and is on-trend from Seabridge’s KSM Project located five kilometers southwest of the Goldstorm Zone. Results from 12 diamond drill holes have recently been received from MSA Labs with final results from another 11 diamond drill holes pending. All drill holes have successfully intersected the Goldstorm System, expanding and defining the mineralization along the northeast and southeast axes, as well as to depth. The Goldstorm System 300 Horizon has now been traced for 1100 meters along the northeast axis and, as well, the CS-600 and DS-5 zones have been expanded to the northeast and to depth. All 39 drill holes completed at Goldstorm during the 2020 program have encountered significant precious metal mineralization. The 2020 Treaty Creek Diamond Drill Program was completed last week, and field personnel have winterized the camp. The track-components of two track-mounted diamond drills remain on site ready for start-up of the 2021 exploration season.

Tudor Gold’s Vice President of Project Development, Ken Konkin, P.Geo., states: “We are very pleased with the results obtained from all 39 drill holes completed this year to-date and we anticipate the release of the final 11 holes of the year within a few weeks. This brings the total to 50 drill holes that were completed this year at the Goldstorm Zone. These latest holes continued to expand the limits of the mineralized targets along the northeastern and the southeastern axes, and to depth. For a fifth consecutive press release, we have surpassed our best result from last years’ drill hole program (0.697 AuEq over 1081.5 meters in hole GS-19-47) with drill holes GS-20-83 and GS-20-94 as described in the headline. The final 11 drill holes represent over 9600 meters of drilling and we expect that MSA Labs will complete the analysis of these final samples as soon as possible.”

Treaty Creek Highlights include:

  • Twelve drill holes presented in this press release total 11,551.1 meters.
  • The best results were from GS-20-94, a near-surface 354.0 meter intercept (36.0-390 m) averaging 1.215 gpt AuEq and GS-20-82 with a 351m intercept (113.0-464.0 m) averaging 1.051 gpt AuEq. Both holes are located on Section 111+00 NE.
  • Equally impressive was drill hole GS-20-83 that also had a near-surface intercept over a similar 345.0 meters (73.5-418.5 m) that averaged 1.078 gpt AuEq on Section 112+50 NE.
  • More Core Drilling did an excellent job completing 50 HQ/NQ2 diamond drill holes totaling 43,972 meters at Goldstorm and 1,636 meters at the Perfect Storm Target with three drill holes.

The following three tables below provide the complete list of composited drill hole results as well as the drill hole data including hole location, elevation, depth, dip and azimuth.

  • All assay values are uncut, and intervals reflect drilled intercept lengths.
  • HQ and NQ2 diameter core samples were sawn in half and typically sampled at standard 1.5m intervals.
  • The following metal prices were used to calculate the Au Eq metal content: Gold $1322/oz, Ag: $15.91/oz, Cu: $2.86/lb. Calculations used the formula Au Eq g/t = (Au g/t) + (Ag g/t x 0.012) + (Cu% x 1.4835). All metals are reported in USD and calculations do not consider metal recoveries. True widths have not been determined as the mineralized body remains open in all directions. Further drilling is required to determine the mineralized body orientation and true widths.

Walter Storm, President and CEO, stated: “We are very pleased to announce the safe successful completion of our 2020 diamond drill hole program. We completed over four times the amount of drilling from the previous year’s program, greatly advancing Tudor’s flagship Treaty Creek Property. We completed almost 44,000 meters of drilling at the Goldstorm System and over 1,600 meters of drilling at the Perfect Storm target. Once we receive the final results from the last eleven drill holes, we will then pass the data to our resource engineers and geoscientists for an initial resource estimate. Continued drilling is required for 2021 to locate the limits or edges of the mineralized system. Due to the size and robust nature of the mineralization, the Goldstorm System remains open on all fronts and to depth. We are proud of what we have achieved in these last two years of exploration and in-particular, the great effort to withstand the harsh winter elements during November and December at Treaty Creek to bring the 2020 drill campaign to a safe close. Our commitment is to continue to advance the project as quickly as possible. We have left the track-drill carriage components for two track-mounted drill rigs on-site so our team can get an early start to the 2021 drill season. We look forward to receiving the final results of the eleven drill holes from MSA Labs within a couple of weeks to complete the 2020 exploration season on schedule.”

Tudor Gold Corp and our associated service companies have taken extreme measures to maintain the highest professional standards while working within COVID-19 health and safety protocols.

Darren Blaney, CEO of American Creek, commented: “We are extremely impressed with the drill program our JV partner Tudor Gold has completed this year and with the significant potential deposit that it has revealed. The Goldstorm zone already appears to be world-scale in size and yet is still open from the northeast to the southeast and remarkably, also at depth. The Magnetotelluric survey done in 2016, which shows potential continuation of gold mineralization well beyond the extent of this year’s drilling of Goldstorm, has proven to be very accurate. That same survey data also shows tremendous potential at the Perfect Storm zone which, due to permitting restraints, was only able to have the outer halo drill tested this year, and yet the drilling still encountered gold mineralization.

“Recognition must be given to both Tudor Gold and More Core for initiating the drill program in early May and carrying through to December. This is no small feat in the Golden Triangle region. While bad weather and Covid-19 limited many projects within the area this season, Tudor and More Core delivered an incredible 45 km of drilling with every hole encountering significant gold mineralization.

“We look forward to the remaining holes, the metallurgical work, and ultimately the maiden resource calculation of the Goldstorm on Treaty Creek sometime in the new year.”

QA/QC

Drill core samples were prepared at MSA Labs’ Preparation Laboratory in Terrace, BC and assayed at MSA Labs’ Geochemical Laboratory in Langley, BC. Analytical accuracy and precision are monitored by the submission of blanks, certified standards and duplicate samples inserted at regular intervals into the sample stream by Tudor Gold personnel.

American Creek: A Positive Impact For The Sulphurets Hydrothermal System $AMK.ca $TUD.ca $SII.ca $GTT.ca $AFF.ca $SEA.ca $SA $PVG.ca $AOT.ca $ESK.ca

Posted by AGORACOM at 11:58 AM on Monday, December 7th, 2020

On Friday December 4th, Seabridge Gold (SEA) announced its intentions to purchase the Snowfield deposit from Pretium Resources (PVG), details here.  As a result, we experienced a high volume of emails and calls as to how this may affect Treaty Creek.  In our opinion, we think it’s a positive move for all three projects located in the Sulphurets Hydrothermal System. Our analysis of the transaction and the associated benefits is as follows:
 
Below is an image created by Seabridge showing the KSM and Snowfield deposits and the relative gold grades/value of those deposits.  Technically, the Snowfield is the top part of the Mitchell deposit, which it sits beside. 

On its own, the Snowfield added no present value to Pretium in the near term for a few reasons: The Snowfield has a very low-grade halo that on its own, at present gold values, isn’t profitable to produce.  It has a higher-grade core but that core isn’t large enough to justify the costs to get it out at today’s gold price. Logistics.  Because the Snowfield is located upslope above the Mitchell deposit in the Mitchell valley, mine construction would have been very difficult due to the terrain combined with the proximity to the Mitchell deposit located below owned by Seabridge. Access.  Even if the gold grades were higher and there was room to develop the Snowfield on its own, there appears to be no feasible way to get the ore to market except through the proposed Mitchell Teigen Tunnels (MTT) which (if built) would be owned by Seabridge.  The above, and perhaps some other reasons as well, is why the Snowfield deposit has been sitting there with no progression for many years, which in its present state added zero value to Pretium.  It could be argued that a sale worth $3 USD per ounce in the ground is a lot better than $0 per ounce while it sits dormant.  We think this was a great deal for PVG as they get: $100m up front in working capital $20m down the road A Net Smelter Royalty (NSR) of 1.5% down the road

By combining the Snowfield with the KSM, SEA removed the “higher grade core isn’t big enough on its own” problem, the “no room” problem, and the “access” problem.  We think this was a great deal for SEA as it helps them accomplish their goals:

  1. Improve their ounces/share ratio
  2. Improve the NPV and IRR on the KSM
  3. Allow them to defer underground operations until later in the production schedule
  4. Pay down the Cap-X for the KSM quicker

 
We think this a great deal for Treaty Creek (TC) shareholders (TUD, AMK, TUO) because anything that improves Seabridge’s chances of going into production is potentially beneficial to us:

  1. The only route for the KSM to go into production is through the use of the MTT which closely follows both the Kyba Line and the Sulphurets Thrust Fault through most of TC (this is the most heavily mineralized trend though TC including the Perfect Storm (PSZ), the Goldstorm (GS), and orpiment (GS2) zones as seen on the image above.
    1. If SEA is able to find a route through TC without disturbing potential deposits then it will build important infrastructure (bridge, roads, power, etc.) right onto TC.
    2. If SEA isn’t able to find a route through TC without disturbing potential deposits then SEA potentially will form an agreement with TC owners (benefiting TC shareholders) followed by building important infrastructure right onto TC.
  2. A second mine, especially one of this magnitude, going into production within the Sulphurets Hydrothermal System will undoubtedly capture the attention of investors and mining companies and shine a spotlight on the third project advancing in the same system; Treaty Creek.

 
The $3 USD per ounce paid for the Snowfield was a good deal for both companies and has no real bearing on potential insitu gold deposits and associated valuations at TC.  It’s all a question of grade, logistics, and potential buyers.  The Snowfield has low grade, horrible logistics (to be developed on its own) and potential for only one buyer (SEA).  TC sits “on the right side of the mountain” only 20km away down a valley from the highway and the cheapest power in the world.  The Goldstorm zone also has its highest gold grades right at surface (300 zone) over a very extended area opposed to dipping steeply into the ground. The logistics, and therefor potential Cap-X and Op-X, are completely different at TC vs both the Snowfield and the KSM.

In conclusion, we believe that the Snowfield purchase by Seabridge will positively impact every company located within the Sulphurets Hydrothermal System. We view this as another very positive development in the rapid progression of Treaty Creek’s development.

American Creek Provides Update on Its First Quarter Filings

American Creek Resources (AMK:TSX-V) Treaty Creek Project has been the subject of incredible discussion in 2020, including by Eric Sprott who stated Treaty Creek may have as much as 50,000,000 ounces of gold this summer.

There isn’t a single junior exploration company that isn’t envious of Treaty Creek and the one good problem it is creating for the Company – it is overshadowing everything else in the Company.  As such, AMK recently announced the following:

“American Creek Announces Spinout of Dunwell Property and Other Properties and Assets and Sets Date for Annual General & Special Meeting”

Watch this powerful interview with CEO Darren Blaney as to the reasons for the spinout that go well beyond the obvious.

About Candente Gold

Candente Gold has launched a comprehensive growth strategy to build a cash flowing business platform and gain access to properties with near surface exploration potential while maintaining El Oro as its flagship asset and an integral part of the overall growth strategy. The acquisition of the SDA Plant, the El Dorado historic mines and the Cocula Project signify important initial steps.

The financial benefits from Western Mexico operations and the addition of specialized personnel will translate across platforms to strengthen the Company’s efforts to explore and potentially mine areas demonstrated to contain mineralization of value. The Company is currently evaluating other properties that are complimentary to the SDA plant, El Dorado and the Cocula Project.

El Oro is a district scale gold project encompassing a well-known prolific high-grade gold dominant gold-silver epithermal vein system in Mexico.   The project covers 20 veins with past production and more than 57 veins in total, from which approximately 6.4 million ounces of gold and 74 million ounces of silver were reported to have been produced from just two of these veins (Ref. Mexico Geological Service Bulletin No. 37, Mining of the El Oro and Tlapujahua Districts. 1920, T. Flores*).

Modern understanding of epithermal vein systems indicates that several of the El Oro district’s veins hold excellent discovery potential, particularly below and adjacent to the historic workings of the San Rafael Vein, which was mined to an average depth of only 200 metres.

Joanne C. Freeze, P.Geo., President, CEO and Director and Matthew Melnyk, CPG., Director Operations and Director are Qualified Persons as defined by National Instrument 43-101 for the projects discussed above, however they have not been able to visit the El Dorado or Cocula Projects nor the SDA Plant recently due to COVID virus travel restrictions. The work discussed in the News Release is either historical and documented by public records or conducted by Mexican professionals with qualifications similar to those of QP’s registered in Canada. Ms. Freeze and Mr. Melnyk have reviewed and approved the contents of this release.

Candente Golds $CDG.ca Samples High Grade Gold and Silver on the Cocula Gold Project, Mexico $FMG.ca $MEX.ca $AGI.ca $DSV.ca

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 29, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Candente Gold Corp. (TSXV:CDG) (“Candente Gold” and/or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that high grade gold and silver has been sampled on the Cocula project.

As reported in News Release dated, October 22nd, 2020, samples collected to check historical reporting confirmed grades of 5.663 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold over 6 metres and 4.322 g/t gold over 8 metres in quartz breccia bodies which we understand are typical throughout the deposit.

In addition, higher grades of 59.0 g/t gold and 729 g/t silver have been found in a selected sample over 10 centimetres (“cm”) in the hanging wall of a quartz vein-breccia structure near the portal of a collapsed adit. We understand mineralization was previously exploited from this adit on a small scale using a flotation recovery process but the Company has not found any formal production records. The mineralization in the high grade sample is described as dark grey to milky white banded quartz in vein and breccia with galena, pyrite and quartz crystals filling open spaces. A channel sample collected over 0.75 m adjacent to the selected sample and including part of the hanging wall, only returned 0.182 g/t gold and 18.9 g/t silver.   The channel sample comprised milky white and gray to dark gray quartz breccia vein with fine grained pyrite, +1% galena and trace malachite.   The Company understands that the high grades are coming from a bonanza zone for which we have no idea of the size or extent yet. Due to the nature of the high grades, the bonanza zone samples were check assayed in a second laboratory. The two laboratories used are the Alti Plano Gold Silver laboratory in Matehualas, San Luis Potosi, Mexico owned by Reyna Mining and Inspectorate Laboratory owned by Bureau Veritas who prepare their samples in Durango, Mexico and conduct sample analyses in Vancouver, Canada.

Base metal assays and multi-element ICP analyses are still pending for the rock check samples as are results from preliminary metallurgical testing.

The due diligence work is being conducted by Ing. Humberto Hernandez, Geological Engineer, member of Asociación de Ingenieros Mineros, Metalúrgistas y Geólogos de México and Ing. Gerardo Moreno, Geological Engineer and Miner, of Grupo Constructor Germo based in Durango, Mexico.

The Cocula Project area is located within the Ameca Mining District of Jalisco State which is home to Agnico Eagle’s El Barqueño Project and Endeavor Silver’s Terronera Project.

Please see News Releases No. 084 and 086 dated September 10th, and October 22nd, 2020 and http://www.candentegold.com/s/cocula.asp for further details on the Cocula Project.
