The Teihsum River Property located on Vancouver Island, approximately 16 km southeast of Port Alice BC, on the SW slope of Merry Widow Mountain. The property consists of 44 claim units and adjoins Grande Portage Resources Inc. Merry Widow Mine gold-copper-cobalt deposit. The Teihsum Property hosts a number of recently-discovered gold and base metal deposits, in a geological setting analogous to the nearby Merry Widow and Coast Copper mines, and the Zeballos area gold mines.
Three main areas of mineralization hosted in limestone and calcareous tuff have been explored; the Road Zone, Gold Creek Zone, and Bridge Zone. Mineralization appears to be widespread in all zones, and a program of prospecting, detailed mapping, trenching and diamond drilling will be required to fully test these occurances. A limited amount of magnetometer and VLF-EM surveys have confirmed that the mineralized zones and controlling structures can be traced by these methods. Of particular interest is the contact-zone area of a mineralized intrusive gabbro breccia diatreme, thought to be an unmapped extension of the main Merry Widow Mountain gabbro stock, intimately associated with mineralization at the Merry Widow and Coast Copper mines. Mineralization style indicates that the Teihsum River deposits are similar to many known Tertiary gold deposits on Vancouver Island, such as Mt. Washington, Zeballos, and the Merry Widow Mine gold deposits.
