American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:AMK) ("American Creek" or "the
Corporation") is pleased to announce that judgment has been handed down by the
British Columbia Supreme Court on April 14, 2014 in the litigation against
Teuton Resources Corp. ("Teuton") over the Treaty Creek property. 


The Corporation is very pleased with the Court's finding that American Creek has
met its obligations under the option agreement with Teuton and that it has
earned its 51% interest in the Treaty Creek property. The Court found that
Teuton breached the agreement in refusing to transfer title to the Treaty Creek
mineral claims to American Creek. The Court has ordered Teuton to transfer legal
title of all of the mineral claims comprising the Treaty Creek property to
American Creek. American Creek will then hold Teuton's undivided 49 percent
interest in those mineral claims in trust pursuant to the parties' original
agreement. 


Legal action was commenced in 2010. The trial of this matter was heard in
Vancouver, British Columbia and was concluded on October 3, 2013. The Court's
reasons for judgment are available on the Court's website:


(http://www.courts.gov.bc.ca/jdb-txt/SC/14/06/2014BCSC0636.htm).

This is a very significant victory for American Creek.  

Teuton has reported its intention to appeal the Court's decision. In light of
Teuton's conduct and that of its president, Dino Cremonese, this comes as no
surprise. If Teuton does, in fact, appeal, American Creek intends to respond
vigorously. American Creek expects that it will prevail. 


American Creek is also proceeding with its claim that Teuton pay American Creek
special costs which may include recovery of the significant legal fees related
to this action.  


American Creek will continue to prosecute the separate $150 million conspiracy
and defamation law suit filed in Alberta against Teuton, Teuton's Chief
Executive Officer & President, Dino Cremonese, Teuton's Director Amanda Mullin,
Teuton's Investor Relations contact Gary Assaly and others. 


The Treaty Creek property is situated in northwest British Columbia, Canada, and
is contiguous with Seabridge Gold Inc.'s ("Seabridge") KSM project and near
Pretium Resources Inc.'s("Pretium") Snowfield / Brucejack (Valley of the Kings)
projects. Mineralization in the Treaty Creek property lies within the same broad
hydrothermal system that generated the several deposits on the Seabridge and
Pretium properties that lie south of the Treaty Creek claims. The KSM project,
owned by Seabridge, is now one of the largest undeveloped gold and copper
deposits in the world. 


American Creek conducted mineral exploration on the Treaty Creek property in
2007-2009. Highlights include the discovery of the Copper Belle zone and the
subsequent drilling of Copper Belle hole CB-14 which ran 241 meters of 0.80 g/t
gold and ended in mineralization (see American Creek news release dated January
12, 2010) as well as extension drilling on the GR2 zone leading to the discovery
of a new VMS system containing several high grade intersections of gold, silver
and base metals (see American Creek news release dated November 30, 2009). 


Seabridge has applied for a permit to construct twin tunnels through
approximately 14 km of the Treaty Creek claims, connecting the KSM deposit with
tailings facilities that are proposed north of the Treaty Creek property. The
proposed tunnel route passes directly through a highly prospective area of the
Treaty Creek property hosting several different mineralized zones including the
Copper Belle and GR2 zones referred to above. 


Allan Burton, President & CEO of American Creek, stated the following: "This
judgment is the very positive culmination of a lengthy and costly process. We
would like to take this opportunity to thank our outstanding legal team for
their efforts and our shareholders for their continued support. We're looking
forward to finally advancing our flagship property, Treaty Creek, towards its
full potential." 


The Corporation has not independently verified the geological information
previously reported by Seabridge or Pretium but believes it to be accurate and
in conformance with industry standards.
