Millrock Resources
Millrock Resources Inc. is a premier project generator to the mining industry. In the search for world-class gold and copper deposits in the mineral rich Alaska and Arizona, Millrock prospects and packages large-scale projects for joint venture, thereby exposing its shareholders to the benefits of mineral discovery without the financial risk and attendant shareholder dilution. As operator, Millrock currently has eleven active exploration projects, eight gold-copper properties in Alaska, and three porphyry copper prospects in Arizona. Its joint venture partners, underwriting some $3.5 million of exploration in 2010, include some of the leading names in the mining industry: Kinross and Teck in Alaska, Vale and Inmet in Arizona.
Millrock Resources stakes 2,300 hectares near Kiska Metals and Tower Hill Mines in Alaska
Millrock Resources (TSX-V: MRO) ("Millrock”) has staked a block of 36 claims (2,331 hectares) west of the company’s Estelle property, west of Kiska Metals (TSX-V: KSK) Whistler copper-gold property, and north-west of International Tower Hill Mines (TSX: ITH) Terra gold property. The claims are all situated on the Kahiltna Terrane, Alaska, which also hosts Northern Dynasty’s world class copper-gold porphyry deposit.
Millrock Resources staked the claims after acquiring proprietary maps, data and other information from Gerald Booth, a geologist. Millrock has agreed to pay US$45,000 over four year and issue 40,000 shares in consideration.
The exploration junior will also pay $2 million if a discovery is put into commercial production.
Philip George, VP of Exploration at Millrock Resources said that observations already conducted on site indicated the presence of a porphyry system. “Glaciers are receding and the melting has been spurred by ash fall from Mount Redoubt volcano which erupted last spring. In some cases we are the first geologists to ever see the mineral occurrences that are emerging from beneath the ice. The mineralization and alteration observed indicates a porphyry system."
George was referring to the presence of porphyritic diorite and altered sedimentary rocks already observed on the property, a “very large” multi-element stream sediment anomaly measuring 177 square kilometers surrounding the Revelation property, and a 600 meter soil anomaly identified on a first pass reconnaissance program which returned values between 95 and 1,200 ppb gold.
