VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 8, 2024
/CNW/ - Rokmaster Resources Corp. (TSXV: RKR) (OTCQB: RKMSF) (FSE:
1RR1) ("Rokmaster" or "the Company") is pleased to announce assay
results from spring 2024 field work completed on the Mystery
Property.
The road accessible Mystery Property is one component of
Rokmaster's Nechako Project which is targeting significant
copper-molybdenum-gold porphyry deposits and high grade gold-silver
epithermal mineralization in west-central British Columbia. The region is host to
excellent infrastructure and multiple active exploration programs,
noted in Figure 1.
The 12,193 hectare Mystery Property is situated over the
Shelford Hills, a circular uplifted volcanic block exposing
Cretaceous Kasalka Group volcanic rocks intruded by a stock of
porphyritic monzonite belonging to the Late Cretaceous Bulkley
Plutonic Suite (Figure 2). The Bulkley Plutonic Suite hosts the
calc-alkalic porphyry Cu-Mo mineralization at the nearby
Huckleberry, Ox, and Seel deposits.
Samples were collected from the Mystery Property during two
field work programs in May and June of 2024. Quartz vein breccia
was discovered approximately 900 m
south of the Breccia Zone and returned up to 5.22[1] g/t Au and 388
g/t Ag in grab samples. This discovery of epithermal quartz veins
hosting gold and silver mineralization is highly positive when
targeting a porphyry environment and adds to the widespread
occurrences of anomalous copper, gold, molybdenum across the
Mystery Property.
Soil sampling work in 2024 confirmed the 900x700 meter
north-central copper in soil anomaly and extended it to the north
by 300 m. Crews observed that nearly
the entirety of the Mystery Property was recently burned by a large
forest fire, providing for a significant access and outcrop
exposure advantage over previous operators such as Kennco,
BP-Selco, Canamax, and Noranda (Figure 3).
John Mirko, President and CEO,
comments:
"These early-stage results from the Mystery Property are
encouraging especially when considering they were generated during
two limited initial field work programs completed in the spring.
The confirmation and extension of the central soil anomaly is in an
area which was held by private interests for many years, including
those when the Property was heavily vegetated. The discovery of
high grade gold and silver mineralization south of the Breccia Zone
is a testament to the underexplored nature of the Mystery Property
and we are excited to return for more investigation. "
1 Samples were prepared and analyzed by Bureau
Veritas Commodities Canada Ltd (BV) in Vancouver BC. After preparation, samples were
analyzed for 37 elements including Au by aqua regia digestion of a
15 g sample with ICP-ES/MS finish (BV method AQ201). Samples >25
g/t Ag and >10,000 ppm Pb were re-analyzed by an ore grade aqua
regia digestion method with an ICP-ES finish (BV method AR374).
