Millrock Resources Inc. (TSX-V: MRO, OTCQB: MLRKF) ("Millrock" or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has signed a Letter of Commitment with Tocvan Ventures Corp. (CSE: “TOC”) (“Tocvan”) in relation to the El Picacho gold project in the Caborca Orogenic Belt, Sonora State, Mexico. Under the Letter of Commitment, Millrock will reinstate a previously held Option Agreement (“Option Agreement”) with concession owners Suarez Brothers, and assign the option rights and obligations to Tocvan. In return, Tocvan will pay back taxes owing on the mineral concessions and grant Millrock certain royalty rights in an assignment agreement (“Assignment Agreement”).

The Project is located 140 kilometers north of Hermosillo in Sonora, Mexico and is fully accessible by road. Extensive surface exploration has been conducted historically defining five gold targets on the project. Millrock and Tocvan believe these targets will be ready for drill testing with surface confirmation via trenching. A permit is currently active to allow for trenching and drilling on the Project. Prior to signing the definitive Assignment Agreement between Millrock and Tocvan, the transaction is subject to an additional 60-day due diligence period effective June 7, 2021.

Millrock President and CEO Gregory Beischer commented: “El Picacho has great exploration potential for large-tonnage, bulk minable gold deposits, and higher-grade, vein-hosted deposits. We had previously dropped our option on the project, but it was readily reinstated. In turn, we are very pleased to assign our rights to Tocvan in exchange for royalty interests that may begin cash flowing in a relatively short time period. Further, in the event that Tocvan does not complete the underlying option with the concession owners, the option rights will be returned to Millrock.”

Terms of Option Agreement Upon assignment of the Option Agreement held by Millrock to Tocvan, Tocvan must make cash payments of $1,989,600 USD to the underlying concession owners (the Suarez brothers) over a five-year term to acquire 100% interest in the project. In the event that Tocvan elects to withdraw from the Option Agreement, it must return the option rights to Millrock.

Terms of Assignment AgreementIn the event that Tocvan exercises its option to purchase a 100% interest from the Suarez brothers, Millrock will vest with a 2% NSR royalty. Tocvan may purchase back 1% for US$1.0 million. The royalty contains a provision for an Annual Advance Minimum Royalty (“AMR”). The initial AMR payment to Millrock would be US$25,000. The amount of the AMR will double each year until commercial production occurs. Any AMR payments made can be deducted from NDR royalty payments.
