Millrock Resources to option 100% of Rainville project
Copper and gold explorer Millrock Resources (CVE:MRO) said Monday it has agreed to option a 100% interest in a large block of Arizona State exploration permits, referred to as the Rainville project.
The permits cover lands located southeast of Safford, and south of the Morenci mine in southeastern Arizona.
Millrock said it believes there is potential to discover porphyry copper deposits on the property hidden beneath overburden, as Rainville is positioned along the trend of Safford deposits, which have been actively explored by mining giant Freeport McMoran.
Under the terms of the deal, Millrock must pay a total of US$400,000 and issue 500,000 shares to the vendor over a period of six years in order to maintain its option. If all option payments are made, the property can then be purchase for a sum of US$1.0 million.
In addition, if Millrock establishes an indicated mineral resource of 1.5 million tons or more of contained copper, the company will then owe a further US$1.0 million.
Millrock currently has 12 exploration projects, consisting of eight gold-copper properties in Alaska, and four porphyry copper prospects in Arizona.
