It is at least 15 kilometers long extending from south of the Premier Mine, possibly in the US, north to the Scottie Gold Mine and beyond. Within this mineralized corridor, there are a number of gold/silver deposits as well as numerous prospects. Deposits within this corridor include the Premier, Big Missouri, Silver Coin, Martha Ellen and Mt Dilworth.
On December 9, 2020, Teuton announced that it had discovered a new zone of mineralization on the Harry Property containing 7.86 ozs/ton over 2 metres.

CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Company’s capital management objectives are to ensure the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern so as to benefit from its operations to provide an adequate return for its shareholders.
The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it based on the funds available to the Company in order to support the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. The Company defines capital that it manages as its shareholders’ equity. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company’s management to sustain future development of the business.
The Company has historically relied on the equity markets to fund the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. In addition, the Company is dependent upon external financings to fund activities. In order to carry out planned exploration and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional funds as needed. The Company will continue to assess new properties and seek to
JAYDEN RESOURCES INC. Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the three-month period ended March 31, 2021
acquire an interest in additional properties if it feels there is sufficient geologic or economic potential and if it has adequate financial resources to do so.
Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable.
The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
COVID-19
Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, it is difficult to predict how significant the impact of COVID-19, including any responses to it, will be on the global economy and the business of the Company or for how long any disruptions are likely to continue. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, rapidly evolving and difficult to predict, including new information which may emerge about COVID-19 and additional actions which may be taken to contain it. Such developments could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow, and exposure to credit risk.
The Company is constantly evaluating the situation and monitoring any impacts or potential impacts to its business.
Subsequent events
On February 17, 2021, the Company entered into a property option agreement with three arm’s length vendors (the “Optionors”) to acquire a 100% interest in the Storm Lake Gold Property located in the Frotet-Evans Greenstone Belt in central Quebec. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company can acquire a 100% interest in the Storm Lake Gold Property by making cash and share payments to the Optionors totaling $750,000 and 19,800,000 common shares respectively. Upon TSXV approval of the transaction (the “Effective Date”), the Company will pay $200,000 and issued 6,600,000 shares to the Optionors. On the nine (9) month anniversary of the Effective Date an additional 6,600,000 shares will be issued. On the fifteen (15) month anniversary of the Effective Date an additional $300,000 and 6,600,000 shares; and on the thirty (30) month anniversary of the Effective Date a further $250,000.
