The Twisted Ankle showing is located approximately 83 kilometres north-northwest of Stewart, British Columbia, near the headwaters of Harrymel Creek, a southerly flowing tributary of the Unuk River.

The area of the Twisted Ankle showing is underlain by andestic rocks of the Lower Jurassic Hazelton Group.

The Twisted Ankle showing consists of strongly sericite quartz pytite altered rhyolite of a thin layer of altered siltstones overlying the rhyolite. The siltstone contains up to 50 per cent finely disseminated pyrite, is carbonaceous and shows fine laminations which are planar to disrupted. The rhyolite is host to a stockwork of quartz-pyrite veining and colloform quartz-pyrite open space filling. Veins are commonly less than 1 centimetre wide and contain symmetrical quartz and pyrite bands. Also present are pods of bladed quarts with finely disseminated pyrite. Associated with the pyrite are rare blebs of galena, sphalerite, and tetrahedrite which appear to elevate gold values significantly.

Assays from the Twisted Ankle showing taken on the Bonsai property during the 1994 field season assayed 344 and 429 parts per billion gold and both came from quartz-pyrite veined rhyolite with minor galena, sphalerite, and possible tetrahedrite (Assessment Report 23718). Other samples on the Twisted Ankle showing returned less than 5 to 96 parts per billion gold.

In 2018 Teuton Resources Corp. undertook a prospecting and rock sampling program in the Twisted Ankle-Bonsai Area. Nine of the seventeen samples taken during the survey returned anomalous gold values ranging between 149 and 3,480 parts per billion. Twelve of the seventeen samples returned anomalous arsenic values ranging between 192 and 1,340 parts per million. The highest values were taken from a pyrite pods in a pale grey siliceous matrix/exhalite (Assessment Report 37829).
