Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Rockcliff Copper Corporation ("Rockcliff" or the "Company") (TSX.V: RCU) (FRANKFURT: RO0, WKN: A142TR) is pleased to announce that the Company, through its 100% owned subsidiary, Goldpath Resources Corp., has entered into an option agreement to earn a 100% interest in the Berry Creek gold property, located in Snow Lake, Manitoba. The Berry Creek gold property is located approximately 5 kilometres by highway from a 2,000 tonne per day ("tpd") gold mill facility in the Snow Lake mining camp within the prolific Flin Flon-Snow Lake Greenstone Belt located in central Manitoba.

President & CEO of Rockcliff, Ken Lapierre commented, "The Berry Creek gold property becomes our fourth high grade gold property located in the middle of a world class Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide mining camp known originally for its gold mining potential.The Berry Creek gold property hosts numerous areas with high grade gold mineralization located in outcrop and in surface trenches. Historical diamond drilling below the trenches also intersected high grade gold mineralization in gold bearing quartz-rich intrusive rocks. The gold mineralization is interpreted to be associated with fault splays off the main regional Berry Creek Thrust Fault within a large felsic to intermediate intrusive complex. The potential gold targets on the Berry Creek gold property are high grade gold within quartz veins and low grade gold in intrusive rocks which has never been investigated historically. Our plan is to advance the Berry Creek gold property through geophysics, geology and drilling in 2018."

Several areas of historical gold mineralization on the Berry Creek gold property include:

1. Visible gold in grab samples.Assays from trace up to 90.0g/t gold , trace up to 2.48% zinc and trace up to 0.51% copper

2. Drill hole Snow-03 intersected 3.8g/t gold across 3.6 metres starting at 6.6 metres

3. Drill hole Snow-06 intersected 4.7g/t gold across 4.3 metres starting at 37.0 metres including 19.0g/t gold across 0.5 metres

4. Drill hole Snow-17 intersected 3.5g/t gold across 4.0 metres starting at 17.5 metres including 13.4g/t gold across 0.5 metres

Several highlights of the Berry Creek gold property include:

1) High Grade Gold: surface Visible Gold and high grade gold drill results above 100 metres vertical

2) Low Grade Gold: potential for a large low grade gold environment

3) Location: 5 kilometres from a 2,000tpd gold mill facility in the Snow Lake mining camp

4) Geophysical Anomalies: untested airborne anomalies are located within property

5) Base Metal Potential: property surrounded by base metal mines and deposits

Rockcliff can acquire a 100% interest in the Berry Creek gold property by paying the owner an aggregate of $140,000 cash over a three year period including $35,000 on signing and $35,000 annually in three equal payments. Expenditure requirements to keep the option in good standing over five years total $500,000 with a minimum $75,000 expenditure requirement in in any year. The owner will retain a 2.0% Net Smelter Royalty (NSR) on the Berry Creek gold property of which 1.0% NSR can be purchased at any time for $500,000 per 0.5% NSR.The owner's remaining NSR will be subject to a right of first refusal in favour of Rockcliff.
