GRAY ROCK ACQUIRES
PROSPECTIVE GOLD-COPPER PORPHYRY PROPERTY IN BC
Gray Rock Resources Ltd. (the “Company” or “Gray Rock”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding
letter agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with DeCoors Mining Corp. (“DeCoors”) to acquire the Hot Bath Property,
located near Dease Lake, British Columbia, comprising eleven mineral claims covering a total area of 3634.4383
hectares. The property was acquired by DeCoors in 2014, based on results from an airborne magnetic geophysical survey,
rock geochemistry and geological mapping completed as part of Geoscience BC’s Quest Northwest study. This study
supports the interpretation of mid -Jurassic calc-alkaline intrusives that are known to be favourable host rocks for copper -
gold mineralization.
Subsequent exploration work by DeCoors in 2015 and 2016, included 760 MMI geochemical samples, 12 line kilometers
of Induced Polarization and 3.5 line kilometers of magn etometer geophysical data. This data identified an extensive area,
800 meters by 1 kilometer of coincident high chargeability geophysical values and anomalous MMI copper, and other
indicator minerals in soils. During Decoors’ exploration program, an oxidized quartz -chalcopyrite vein near the centre of
the MMI/IP anomaly was exposed and sampled. Rock samples from this vein returned values over 3% copper and 3
grams per tonne gold. These rock samples were selective and may not be indicative of the mineral ization of the property.
Work to date on the property has identified three high priority , drill ready, copper -gold porphyry targets along with
several other anomalies that remain open in all directions.
The geology as identified by Geoscience BC indicates a mid -Jurassic assemblage of calc- alkaline plutonic rocks of
favourable composition to be mineralized. This coupled with high copper values from geochemical samples acquired
coincident with the induced polarization geophysical anomalies, copper and gold found in outcrop rock samples and the
circular magnetic feature; support the premise of a mineralized intrusive.
The terms of the Option Agreement/LOI are:
1. Subject to the execution of a binding Option Agreement and the acceptance of its terms by the TS X Venture
Exchange (the date of such acceptance being the “Approval Date”), the Company may make three option
payments to Decoors by the issuance of common shares of Gray Rock in three installments up to a total of
1,500,000 shares over three (3) years, as follows:
(a) The first 150,000 shares on or before the first anniversary of the Approval Date;
(b) The next 450,000 shares on or before the second anniversary of the Approval Date; and
(c) The balance of 900,000 shares on or before the third anniversary of the Approval Date.
2. In addition, Decoors has reserved a 1.5% net smelter returns royalty (the “NSR”) from commercial production;
and
3. The Optionee may elect to reduce Decoors’ NSR to only 0.5% at any time prior to the commencement of
commercial production, upon the payment to Decoors of $1,000,000.
