    The Core Shack Dozen: Rockhaven Resources Takes a Different Look at the Klaza Project

    Geologist Wayne Hewgill weighs in on Rockhaven Resources. In November 2011, the company announced results from a new zone of high-grade gold-silver veins and breccia on its 100-percent-owned Klaza project in the Yukon Dawson Range.

    The “Drill Tracker” highlights early stage drilling and trenching results, giving a metric to evaluate exploration results and compare them against their peer group. In this report we highlight a dozen exploration companies displaying their projects in the Core Shack at the AME BC Roundup held in Vancouver between January 26 and 29, 2014.

    Rockhaven Resources (TSXV:RK)

    Price: $0.195

    Market cap: $16.3 million

    Cash estimate: $0.75

    Project: Klaza

    Country: Yukon, Canada

    Ownership: 100 percent

    • In November 2011, Rockhaven announced results from a new zone of high-grade gold-silver veins and breccia on its 100-percent-owned Klaza project in the Yukon Dawson Range. The results were a turning point for the project, which had previously been looked at as a lower-grade bulk tonnage target.
      • Highlights from post-2011 drilling include:
        • Discovery hole: 1.22 meters at 34 g/t gold and 298 g/t silver
        • 3 meters at 26.71 g/t gold and 172 g/t silver
        • 1 meter at 66.2 g/t gold and 403 g/t silver
        • 3.2 meters at 22.43 g/t gold and 245 g/t silver
        • 1.37 meters at 16.29 g/t gold and 1,435 g/t silver (500-meter intercept down dip)
    • While the mineralized intervals on the Klaza property are narrow, the high-grade zones have been consistently intersected in nine known mineralized zones with a cumulative strike length of 9.4 kilometers. In October 2014, the company announced a deep step-out hole 500 meters down dip that returned significantly higher-than-average lead–zinc values, along with high-grade gold and silver. The 1.37-meter interval returned 16.29 g/t gold and 1,435 g/t silver, along with 5.57 percent lead and 6.23 percent zinc.
    • The Klaza project is road accessible on a two-wheel-drive road 50 kilometers from Carmacks, Yukon. The area is mining friendly with a number of placer gold deposits.
