About Rokmaster
Rokmaster controls a portfolio of three significant exploration and development projects all of which
are located in southern
British Columbia
in regions of excellent infrastructure. The three projects
include:
1
.
Revel Ridge.
Rokmaster is currently conducting an underground drill program at the Revel
Ridge project located in southeastern
British Columbia
35 km's N of the
City of Revelstoke
.
Revel Ridge is a high-grade gold and polymetallic orogenic sulphide deposit which has been the
subject of a PEA Technical Report dated
December 8, 2020
and a *Technical Report of an
Updated Mineral Resource Estimate on the Revel Ridge Property, dated
January 17, 2022
.
2
.
Big Copper.
Rokmaster controls the Big Copper property in the
Creston
area of
Southern
British Columbia
. Big Copper is a high-grade copper-silver occurrence hosted in mid-Proterozoic
rocks. Copper-silver mineralization has been traced for 4 km along strike and is exposed in a
series of adits and trenches over approximately 400 -
500 m
of vertical relief. Big Copper likely
belongs to a class of stratabound replacement copper-silver deposits hosted within mid –
Proterozoic quartzitic sediments. The style and stratigraphic setting of mineralization at Big
Copper may be analogous to similar stratabound silver-copper deposits in
NW Montana
e.g.,
the Troy mine (64 million tonnes of 0.74% Cu and 54 g/t Ag (Western Mining History, 2020) or
Hecla's
Montanore Mine, 112 million tonnes at 51.2 g/t Ag and 0.7% Cu (
Hecla
, 2020 Annual
Report, Pg. 119.

).*

.
Duncan Zinc.
Duncan is a carbonate hosted silver-lead-zinc deposit located near Duncan Lake
in southern
British Columbia
. The deposit is hosted within a Cambrian age Badshot Limestone
which also hosts silver-lead-zinc mineralization at Teck's past producing Pend Oreille mine as
well as other past producers including the Blue Bell Mine, Reeves MacDonald, Jersey Emerald
and HB mines. Mineralization at Duncan Lake forms in the crest and limbs of the regional scale
Duncan Lake anticline, where strong lead-zinc +/- silver mineralization has been traced by
surface and underground drilling for approximately
2,500 m
. At Duncan Lake, Rokmaster will be
targeting > 30 Mt of >10% Pb+Zn+Ag. Historical background and a geological synthesis of the
Duncan Lake deposit is provided in a NI 43-101 report by
Lane, B., 2018: Technical Report on
the Duncan Lake Project.
