The Treaty Creek project is 60% owned and operated by Tudor with partners American Creek Resources (TSXV: AMK) and Teuton Resources (TSXV: TUO), each of which hole 20%.
The initial resource estimate had measured and indicated resources of 815.7 million tonnes grading 0.66 g/t gold, 3.6 g/t silver and 0.06% copper for 17.3 million oz. of contained gold and 93.4 million of contained silver. The inferred resource had 311.7 million tonnes grading 0.72 g/t gold, 4.0 g/t silver and 0.05% copper for 7.2 million oz. of contained gold and 40.6 million oz. of contained silver. There are also 1.1 billion lb. and 330.2 million lb. of copper contained in the respective resource categories.
