VANCOUVER, BC - 1111 Exploration Corp. ('Eleven' or the 'Company') (CSE:ELVN) announces that it has agreed to acquire a 100% interest in the Teako Copper-Gold project from private company Teako Gold Corp. ('TGC'). The 1,019-hectare road accessible Teako project is located approximately 18 km west-southwest of the village of Kitwanga, northwestern British Columbia and comprises two contiguous mineral tenures which are 100% owned by TGC. The project has minimal recorded historical work with modern exploration beginning in 2012 followed by extensive soil and rock sampling, geological mapping, and airborne magnetic surveys in 2018 and 2021 by TGC. The property is subject to a 2% net smelter return (NSR) royalty with a buy-out provision on half (1%) of the NSR royalty for $1.0 million. The transaction will also involve the acquisition of the early stage BQ property. The purchase by Eleven of the Teako Project and the BQ property is referred to as the 'Transaction'.
About the Teako Project
Copper and gold bearing quartz veins and shear zones were discovered on the project area in 1925 and 1929 at the Belle Vue and Sunset showings with an open cut and a 3m long tunnel reported at the Sunset. In 2012, reconnaissance exploration by Mr. John A. Kemp led to the discovery of several additional mineral occurrences on the property. In 2018, TGC completed an extensive soil grid over 40% of the project covering the historical showings and adjacent areas, chip sampling of select showings and geological mapping with concurrent rock sampling. An airborne magnetic survey was completed over the entire Teako Project by TGC in 2021. The programs resulted in the discovery of three new showings, including polymetallic veins and porphyry style mineralization, and the delineation of multi-element soil anomalies associated with the Teako stock. The Teako Project is primarily underlain by Middle Jurassic aged sedimentary rocks of the Bowser Lake Group, which in fault contact with younger Lower Cretaceous sedimentary rocks of the Skeena Group in the southeast property area. The Bowser Lake Group is intruded by two stocks of quartz diorite to granodiorite, the informally named Teako stock and the Road stock of probable Bulkley plutonic suite affinity. This suite is elsewhere associated with a number of mineral deposits such as the past producing calc-alkaline porphyry Huckleberry located 165 km to the southeast and the nearby polymetallic vein to subvolcanic Rocher Deboule occurrences (50 km east). Mineralization includes precious and base metals veins, vein breccias and vein stockwork zones as well as molybdenum-silver bearing veins within the Teako stock suggestive of a porphyry style of mineralization. Plotted B-horizon soil sample data collected by contractors to TGC outline a multi element soil anomaly broadly coincident with the mapped extent of the Teako Stock. Copper soil values greater than 100 ppm define a 1000 m by 1000 m area that is accompanied by an area of elevated molybdenum (contoured values greater than 10 ppm) and a 500 m by 500 m area of gold (greater than 20 ppb). In 2018 TGC collected 51 chip and grab style rock samples from the property. Thirteen rock samples were greater than 0.2 g/t gold and 3 were greater than 1 g/t gold with the highest sample being 3.24 g/t gold. For copper, 3 samples were greater than 0.1 % copper with highest being 0.248 % Cu. Grab samples are selective by nature and may not represent the true grade from the area sampled.
