Capsule Geology

The Silver Bow-Stewart showing is located on the north fork of Glacier Creek, 8.5 kilometres northeast of Stewart. The area is underlain by argillite of the Middle Jurassic Salmon River Formation (Hazelton Group) which has been intruded by a number of mafic (greenstone) dikes.

Mineralization is contained in a fractured and silicified mafic dike. The dike is up to 4.6 metres wide and strikes northeast for 213 metres along the creek. Mineralization consists of small lenses and disseminations of pyrite and minor sphalerite, galena and tetrahedrite.

In 2006, Teuton Resources Corp. completed 228.1 line-kilometres of a helicopter-borne AeroTEM II electromagentic and magnetic survey on their Silver Bell property which covers the showing area.
