TEAKO MINERALS ACQUIRES THE ADVANCED AND FULLY PERMITTED
DISTRICT SCALE YELLOW MOOSE GOLD PROJECT IN BC, CANADA
VANCOUVER, B.C. – July 21, 2023, TEAKO MINERALS CORP. ( CSE: TMIN ) (the
"Company" or "Teako") is delighted to announce that it has entered into a purchase agreement
dated July 18, 2023 (the “Agreement”) with Cuprita Minerals Inc. (“Cuprita”), pursuant to which
Teako is acquiring a 100% interest in the Yellow Moose project (the “Property ” or “ Yellow
Moose”), British Columbia, Canada.
The Property is an advanced -stage project measuring 154 km 2 with extensive geological,
geochemical and geophysical survey coverage defining a greater than fifteen km length of a low-
sulphidation epithermal gold trend with permitted drill-ready targets.
Highlights
• District-scale land package covering a >15 km gold trend with over CAD $500,000 of
recent work completed on the Property.
• 2 Year, Area-based diamond drill program permitted for up to 9 drill pads within the Stubb
Bay prospect area.
• Significant surface work completed by previous owners and Cuprita has outlined many
untested gold targets from the drill drill- ready stage to indicated trends requiring further
grassroots follow-up work.
• Several targets at various exploration stages.
• The Trout Deposit (not owned by Teako) located adjacent to Teako’s claims to the north
end of the project area. The Trout Deposit is a well-preserved low sulphidation epithermal
gold target with highlights including:
o 19.5 g/t Au over 5 meters from trenching.
o 3.7 g/t Au over 20 meters from drilling.
• The Trout Deposit highlights the gold prospective potential of the Yellow Moose
epithermal system.
• An abundance of epithermal gold prospects and projects in the region including the 11.7
Moz Blackwater Deposit owned by Artemis Gold l ocated approximately 45 km to the
southwest, (M+I resource ref: Artemis Gold Mineral Resource Estimate, 2020).
• Easy access to site from nearby communities in a well-known mining region.
The terms of the agreement:
Under the terms of the Agreement, Teako will acquire a 100% interest in the Property from
Cuprita, in consideration for:
1100 – 1111 Melville Street, Vancouver, BC, V6E 3V6 TEL (778) 989-1501

• The issuance of 3,500,000 shares of the Company to Cuprita;
• Cuprita retains a 2% Net Smelter Return (“NSR”); and
• Teako can buy back 1% of the NSR, thus reducing the NSR to 1%, for a price of CA D
$1,000,000.
All shares issued to Cuprita will be subject to a 4-month and one-day hold, and are subject to the
Company’s filing requirements with the Canadian Securities Exchange (“ CSE”) and approval of
the CSE, as may be required under CSE Policy 6.
About the Yellow Moose Project:
The Yellow Moose project is within the Nechako Plateau region of north-central British Columbia,
150 km southwest from the city of Prince George and 75 km southwest from the town of
Vanderhoof. The Property is accessible throughout the year, thanks to well -maintained logging
roads.

A key target on the property is the gold trend defined by the Trout Deposit and the Stubb Bay
Target, which extends over 15 km within the Cutoff claims. This trend comprises several showings
1100 – 1111 Melville Street, Vancouver, BC, V6E 3V6 TEL (778) 989-1501

and targets between these two significant areas, and its potential expands considerably if we
include the area southwest towards the Property. This region has seen substantial exploration
activity since the 1980s, with notable involvement by companies such as Newmont, Cogema, and
Phelps Dodge. The historical work was predominantly comprised of rock, soil and till sampling,
geophysical surveys with limited drilling and trenching. Notably, almost all of the drilling and
trenching activity to date has been focused on the Trout Deposit.
Historical Data Compilation and Ah Soil Program
Historical geochemistry datasets have been digitized , including soil, till, and rock, along with
geophysical surveys such as magnetic and EM, dating from the 1980s to the 2000s. Furthermore,
a two-phase soil sampling campaign had been carried out in 2020 and 2021, which entailed a
collection of 3,255 Ah soil samples, as well as prospecting activities conducted by Cuprita
geologists. The Ah methodology was chosen as it is a more effective alternative to the historic
geochemical surveys of reworked (glacial) material (Figure 2, 3 and 4)

Geological Observations:
Prospecting activities have yielded grab and float samples with strongly anomalous grades of up
to 2.45 g/t Au (ranges of sample values are presente d in F igures 3 and 4) , with many samples
comprised of quartz veining, silicification, and elevated pathfinder elements.
Propylitic alteration accompanied by minor quartz veining has been observed along the Stubb Bay
to Lalinear trend, which is further defined by field mapping, geophysical data, and remote sensing
(Figure 5).

Historical work carried out by previous operators in 2014 has led to the interpretation of a large
extensional corridor, known as the "Trout Graben", which continues southwest from the Trout
Deposit. This corridor encompasses many of the identified target s and anomalies. With the
exception of Stubb Bay and Trout, all these potential areas currently remain untested by drilling
(Figure 4).

The area that presents a key interest for continued work for Teako is the potential northe astern
continuation of the Stubb Bay mineralization. A satellite structural interpretation of the project
has been completed, revealing significant structures at Stubb Bay and Lalinear that continue
towards the northeast. This interpretation has highlighted potential extensional 'kinks' within these
major structures, opening up new avenues for exploration.
At Stubb Bay, historical work from 1994 included trench results of 2.0 meters of 2.87 grams per
tonne of gold and one shallow drill hole yielding 6.1 meters containing 0.50 grams per tonne of
gold. Additionally, stockwork quartz veining outcrops are found spread across the shoreline
(historical work from publicly available reports. Unverified but conside red valid for exploration
purposes).
Inland, an abundance of quartz-breccia and silicified boulders are present, displaying similarities
to those seen on the shoreline. This combination of historical and current findings highlights the
prospective nature of this location.

The broader business plan:
Securing the Yellow Moose project aligns seamlessly with Teako's principal strategy on copper
and gold prospects within Canada and serves to enhance the Company’s portfolio of properties.
Additionally, this strategic acquisition forms an integral part of our broader business blueprint and
marks yet another successful step within our first phase objectives. Now, our sights are set on
expanding strategically into Norway and Finland, where we plan to create a formidable presence
by focusing on copper, cobalt, and gold exploration opportunities.
