Rokmaster acquires 5,326 ha at Revel North
Mr. John Mirko reports
ROKMASTER ACQUIRES 5,326 HA OF MINERAL CLAIMS TARGETING AU-AG-PB-ZN-CU MINERALIZATION AT ITS NEW REVEL NORTH PROPERTY
Rokmaster Resources Corp. has substantially expanded is mineral claim holdings north of the main Revel Ridge project area. Newly acquired mineral tenures Downie (3,173 ha), Keystone (1,992 ha), and North (161 ha) claims overlie the portions of the historic Keystone, Montgomery, Upper Montgomery, KJ and Ice occurrences. The Keystone, Downie and North claims lie 12 to 20 km to the northwest of the existing Revel Ridge deposits (Figure 1).
Historic Mineral Occurrences, KJ - Ice and Keystone Areas
The discovery in 1973 of the Goldstream Deposit (unclassified historical resource of 3.18 million tonnes of 4.49% Cu, 3.124% Zn% and 20 g/t Ag by Noranda Exploration Company*) located 4.5 km to the north of the KJ - Ice occurrences, accelerated exploration in this area (Campbell and Lewis, 1991: BCDM AR 20,997, 84 pages). *This resource is not NI43-101 compliant. The Qualified Professional ("QP") has not done sufficient work to classify this historic estimate as a current mineral resource and as such, it is not to be relied upon.
The Keystone, KJ - Ice and Goldstream areas share similar stratigraphic relationships. Goldstream ("Besshi" style VMS) volcanic hosted mineralization is associated with the contact between mafic volcanic - phyllite units, and locally thin limestones within the Index Formation. In stark contrast to the Goldstream area, and to many other mineral occurrences within this belt, selected occurrences within the Ice, KJ and Keystone areas all contained elevated gold.
Downie Claims (Figure 1 and Table 1. Historic KJ & Ice Occurrences)
Mineralization at the historic KJ, Ice, Montgomery and Upper Montgomery occurrences are all largely overlain by the Company's Downie Claims. At these occurrences, mineralization occurs as a massive to semi-massive sulphide, pyrite-pyrrhotite-sphalerite and minor chalcopyrite replacements of limestone and as semi-conformable sulphide zones at chloritic phyllite-phyllite contacts. Stratigraphy generally strikes east- west and dips moderately to steeply north.
The KJ occurrence is associated with discordant stockwork veins and silicification hosted by limestones. The alteration zone is approximately 35 m thick and can be traced for several hundred metres. Proximity to large intrusive bodies, may result in the development of gold and base metals associated with silicification and calc silicate alteration styles. In this past summer 2021, a 500 m long sulphide rich boulder train was prospected, with samples containing up to 8.52 g/t Au and 729 g/t Ag and was traced back to a calc silicate body containing 0.16% Mo and 630 ppm W. Prospecting samples routinely carry high gold and significantly, very low As values; see Table 1.
The rapid change from base metal dominant, gold deficient occurrences, e.g., Montgomery, to strongly precious metals enhanced sulphides at the KJ and Melt occurrences suggest that a second mineralizing system is present on the Downie claims and one which may be intrusion related.
