Eagle Plains/Rosedale Commence Exploration on Rohan Project, North-western British Columbia

29.09.2014  |  FSCwire
Cranbrook, British Columbia (FSCwire) - Rosedale Resources Ltd (a private B.C. company) has recently notified Eagle Plains Resources (TSX-V:EPL) that field crews have been mobilized to commence fieldwork on EPL’s 100%-owned Rohan property, located in northwestern British Columbia 80km NW of Atlin. The property is well-situated along the White Pass rail line, 60 kilometres north of the port of Skagway, Alaska, with barge access to the property from Carcross, Yukon. Rosedale holds the exclusive right to earn a 60% interest in the property.

The property was acquired by Eagle Plains in 2010 and covers a 6km span of the prospective Llewellyn/Tally-Ho shear zone, part of a larger (>150 km-long) crustal-scale fault system, host to numerous gold, silver and base-metal properties. The land package overlies several regional stream-silt (RGS) anomalies that includes better than 95th percentile values for gold, copper, antimony, arsenic and lead. The under-explored property area is considered to have excellent potential for precious-metal discoveries.

In 2011, Rosedale/Eagle Plains completed a 200 line-km airborne geophysical survey, followed in 2013 by helicopter-supported silt/soil sampling and prospecting. This work resulted in the discovery of an area of extremely anomalous soil values, with precious-metal values returning up to 2.96 g/t gold and 18.4 g/t silver, with associated elevated values for arsenic, antimony, lead, zinc and iron.

The 2014 work program is designed to follow up on results from the successful 2013 program and will focus on mapping, prospecting, hand-trenching and sampling of the 2013 discovery area. Fieldwork is being completed by TerraLogic Exploration Inc. of Cranbrook, BC under the supervision of Mike McCuaig, P.Geo.


Rohan Option Agreement Terms

Under terms of an option agreement announced February 23, 2011, Rosedale holds the exclusive right to earn a 60% interest in the 3,000 ha property by completing $5M in exploration expenditures, making $500,000 in cash payments and issuing 1.0M common shares to Eagle Plains over 5 years. Eagle Plains will maintain a 4% Gross Metal Royalty on the claims, which may be reduced to 2% upon payment of $2M.
