The Silver Mountain occurrence is located on the southwesterly slopes of Mount Magee, about 6 kilometres south-southeast of Stewart.
The showing area is underlain by fine grained volcaniclastic rocks of the Lower Jurassic Betty Creek Formation (Hazelton Group). Further eastward towards Barney Glacier and Mount Magee, this succession contacts with predominant fine grained and thin bedded sediments and greywackes of the upper portion of the Hazelton Group, most probably the Salmon River Formation. The character of this north-striking contact is unclear. The rocks of the Hazelton Group successions are crosscut by numerous, predominantly thin and discontinuous, coarse crystalline, white to greyish quartz veins displaying various strikes. The area is apparently invaded at depth by numerous, small-size granodioritic intrusions.
A grab sample (A04-145) across a limonitic shear zone, 5 to 15 centimetres wide, striking 040 degrees and dipping vertically analysed 10.7 grams per tonne silver, 0.67 per cent zinc and 0.07 per cent lead; no visible sulphides are evident (Assessment Report 28021).
In 2004, work on the Silver Mountain property was part of a larger, summer program involving exploration of more than ten separate Teuton Resources Corp. properties. Altogether, 11 samples were taken for analysis; 5 float and 6 grab.
