Corporate Overview

Mission Statement

International Tower Hill Mines believes that mineral deposit discovery is enhanced through the integrated work of a highly skilled geologic team and endeavors to cultivate and promote the discovery culture within its organization.

Corporate Overview

International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. ("ITH") possesses one of the most significant new gold discoveries of the past 20 years, the Livengood Project located in Alaska. The project was acquired from AngloGold Ashanti (U.S.A.) Exploration Inc. ("AngloGold") as part of a regional program divestment in which ITH acquired all of AngloGold's active exploration properties and assets in the region for a 19.99% equity interest in ITH at the transaction date. In addition, ITH hired key members of AngloGold's North American exploration team to manage its ongoing exploration activities.  Since 2006, ITH has been focused on the aggressive advancement of the Livengood project and is now in the midst of a two-phase prefeasibility study.

The ITH business model offers considerable competitive advantages in the market place by leveraging the significant investment made by AngloGold in the region and properties with the flexibility and aggressiveness of a junior explorer and mine finder.
