Rockhaven Intersects 43.2 g/t Gold and 137 g/t Silver over 1.2 m and
7.4 g/t Gold and 183 g/t Silver over 4.2 m at its Klaza Project, Yukon
January 30, 202 3 - Rockhaven Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:RK) (“Rockhaven ”) is pleased to
announce additional assay results from the 2022 exploration program completed at its 100% owned
and road accessible Klaza property. The Klaza property is located within the Dawson Range Gold-
Copper Belt of southern Yukon, a prolific belt t hat hosts several important mineral deposits
including Minto Metals’ Minto copper-gold mine, Western Copper and Gold’s Casino copper-
gold deposit and Newmont’s Coffee gold deposit.
2022 Program
The program utilized two diamond drill rigs that completed a total of 12,042 m of drilling in 69
holes. The 2022 work program focused on advancing Klaza towards an updated mineral resource
estimate1 and pre-feasibility study through the definition and expansion of its current mineral
resources, as well as the collection of data and samples to complete engineering and metallurgical
studies on the project. The first batch of drill results, which covered holes testing the Central and
Eastern BRX Zone structure, were released on January 18, 2023.
All of the results in this news release are from 8 holes drilled in 2022 within the Western BRX and
Western Klaza zones. Results are still pending for 39 drill holes and will be released once all assays
have been received and compiled.
Statement from Rockhaven’s President and CEO, Matt Turner:
The Western BRX and Western Klaza z ones could potentially be attractive as two of the centres
for early mining in any development scenario developed at Klaza, due in part to their high-grade
nature and excellent continuity along strike and down -dip. The infill drill holes completed this
summer at these zones all intersected significant mineralization. The strongest result came from
the core of the Western BRX Zone, with a high-grade gold intercept of 43 g/t gold and 137 g/t
silver over 1.2 m in hole KL-22-593. The Western Klaza Zone, located 800 m north of the Western
BRX Zone and within the same fault package, yielded high-grade hits which included 7.4 g/t gold
and 183 g/t silver over 4.20 m in hole KL-22-580.
The Western Zones
The Western BRX and Western Klaza zones are emplaced within the same fault panel,
approximately 800 m apart, and represent the distal -most extent of their respective mineralized
structures within the Klaza Deposit . Both are key contributors to the overall precious metal
endowment at Klaza.
Within the Western BRX Zone, strongly mineralized, epithermal veins are emplaced adjacent to a
feldspar porphyry dyke that can be traced along the length of the zone. Since its discovery in 2011,
a total of 9 excavator trenches and 8 5 diamond drill holes have traced mineralization over an
2
approximate 500 m strike length and from surface to a maximum depth of 520 m down -dip. The
mineralization remains open to extension at depth.
The Western Klaza Zone hosts a single discrete vein that has been traced for 400 m along strike
and to a maximum depth of 340 m down dip. A total of 8 excavator trenches and 49 diamond drill
holes have targeted this structure.

intersects had contacts that were at or near perpendicular to core axis.
* Gold equivalent (AuEQ) values assume $1,800/oz Au, $22/oz Ag, $1.05/lb Pb, and $1.60/lb Zn, and variable recoveries for the

QA/QC
All analyses for rock and core samples from the 2022 program were performed by ALS Minerals
with sample preparation in Whitehorse, Yukon and Windsor, Ontario and assays and geochemical
analyses in North Vancouver. Core samples were routinely analyzed for gold by fire assay
followed by atomic absorption (Au-AA24) and 48 other elements by inductively coupled plasma-
mass spectrometry (ME-MS61). Samples that exceeded the detection limits of the routine methods
were assayed for silver, copper, lead and zinc by inductively coupled plasma -atomic emission
spectroscopy (Ag/Cu/Pb/Zn – OG62) and gold by gravimetric analysis (Au -GRA22). Rigorous
procedures were in place regarding sample collection, chain of custody and data entry. Certified
assay standards, coarse reject duplicates, field duplicates and blanks were routinely inserted into
the sample stream to ensure integrity of the assay process. All of the results reported have passed
the QA/QC screening.
