Rokmaster Resources Corp. (RKR, RKMSF, 1RR) has announced the acquisition of additional mineral claims, expanding its Mystery Property in west-central British Columbia. The Mystery Property is part of the Nechako Project, an area known for its excellent infrastructure and active exploration programs.
This strategic acquisition significantly increases the size of the Mystery Property to 16,291 hectares, covering almost the entirety of the Shelford Hills. The Shelford Hills are a topographically high region that was historically inaccessible, but recent salvage logging operations following a 2018 forest fire have opened up the area with new road networks.
The Mystery Property’s expanded boundaries encompass Cretaceous-age Kasalka Group volcanic rocks and multiple Bulkley intrusive stocks. These geological features are known to host copper-molybdenum-gold porphyry mineralization and high-grade gold-silver epithermal mineralization, similar to the nearby Huckleberry, Ox, and Seel deposits.
This expansion comes at a crucial time, as neighboring projects are also actively exploring for similar mineralization. The Rip Project, located immediately adjacent to the Mystery Property, is scheduled for diamond drilling this month, targeting similar mineralization. Additionally, the Poplar South target is undergoing exploration and is slated for diamond drilling in 2025.
John Mirko, President and CEO of Rokmaster, commented on the acquisition: “The abundance of new access in prospective geology led to the decision to add these mineral claims to the already large Mystery Property. The new claims were acquired for very low cost via staking open ground and provides additional area to explore for significant mineralized systems.”
Rokmaster’s strategic expansion positions the company at the heart of a rapidly developing mining region. The company’s focus on acquiring high-potential mineral claims coupled with its proximity to ongoing exploration projects makes Rokmaster a key player in the future of mineral exploration in British Columbia.
