VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, April 24, 2019 - Millrock Resources Inc. (TSX-V: MRO,
OTCQX: MLRKF) ("Millrock" or the “Company”) reports that it has staked a large, contiguous
block of claims in the Goodpaster Mining District in Alaska. The claims are adjacent to mineral
lands owned by Northern Star Resources (“Northern Star”, ASX:NST), operator of the Pogo
Gold Mine. The claims cover prospects east of the Pogo Gold Mine property (the East Pogo
project) and add to Millrock’s existing land position west of the Pogo Gold Mine (the West Pogo
project). The combined East and West Pogo projects cover 43 kilometers along the Pogo Trend
of gold occurrences. Additionally, Millrock has also staked claims covering a 30-kilometer strike
extent along the Shaw-LMS Trend. These claims cover stream sediment and soil anomalies, as
well as gold prospects, that are situated on splays of the Shaw Creek fault. In total, 892 claims
were staked covering 51,134 hectares, as shown in pale blue in Figure 2.

Gregory Beischer, President & CEO of Millrock commented, “We believe that the Goodpaster
District will ultimately prove to be a gold mining camp of significant stature. The area has seen
very little exploration despite the obvious potential and proximity to infrastructure. We have
amassed a dominant land position and intend to do our best to discover one or more gold
deposits on the claims we have staked.”
At the West Pogo project, 221 claims were staked, adding on to 141 claims that Millrock
already owned, or upon which Millrock already has an option to purchase a 100% interest. The
project now consists of 362 claims covering 17,591 hectares. Previous workers developed the
Tourmaline Ridge (“TR”), Half-Ounce Gulch (“HOG”), and ER prospects. These three prospects
contain elevated gold, arsenic, and bismuth surface soil and rock sample anomaly clusters
related to northeast and northwest-trending high-angle faults. Drilling by prior operators returned
gold-bearing intercepts in high-angle veins. Millrock postulates that the steep veins intersected
by prior workers at West Pogo may lead to thicker, higher-grade, shallow-dipping gold veins.
The schematic diagram shown below (after Twelker, 2017) illustrates that gold-mineralized high-
angle veins can lead to thicker gold-bearing quartz veins within a low-angle shear zone. This is
the exploration model that has been successfully applied at the Pogo Gold Mine. The Company
cautions, however, that this is an exploration model used to help guide exploration. Millrock has
not yet done sufficient exploration to test this model on its claims and there is no certainty that
exploration will be successful in confirming this model.

Low-angle structures and Cretaceous granitic-dioritic intrusions are mapped at West Pogo, and
the prospects show strikingly similar geological and geochemical attributes to the nearby Pogo
Gold Mine. Geophysical surveys and drilling will be needed to determine if the high-angle veins
present on Millrock’s West Pogo property lead to thicker, shallow-dipping gold-bearing vein
systems.
A new discovery reported by the prior owners of the Pogo Gold Mine (the Goodpaster prospect
– see “GP” on Figure 1 and 2) may trend onto Millrock’s West Pogo project. Approved permit
applications filed by Northern Star indicate their plans to drill very close to the shared Pogo Mine
/ Millrock West Pogo claim boundary.
At the East Pogo project, 403 claims covering 21,991 hectares were staked over several
known prospects: Scott, Boundary, and Cal-Surf. These three prospects contain elevated gold,
arsenic, and bismuth surface sample anomaly clusters related to northeast and northwest-
oriented high-angle faults. Drilling conducted on the Boundary (“BD”) and Cal Surf (“CS”)
prospects by previous operators intersected gold-bearing veins.
At the Shaw – Eagle – LMS trend, 268 claims were staked covering 17,231 hectares. The
claims cover stream sediment, soil, and rock samples containing elevated gold, arsenic, and
bismuth geochemical anomalies that appear to be associated with intrusive rocks near splays
off the Shaw Creek fault.
In this campaign, the claims were staked with funding provided to Millrock from EMX Royalty
Corporation (TSX-V: EMX, NYSE – American: EMX) (“EMX”) pursuant to a strategic investment.
Millrock will grant certain royalty rights to EMX on the staked claims and some of the pre-
existing Millrock claims as described in Millrock’s press release, dated April 24, 2019.
Cautionary Statement
The Company cautions that the mineralization at the Pogo Mine is not necessarily indicative of
the mineralization that may be identified on the property, and there is no certainty that significant
mineralization similar to that found at the Pogo Mine will be identified on the property.
