VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, April 7, 2016 - Millrock Resources Inc. (TSX-V: MRO) ("Millrock") announces that the company has purchased mining claims comprising the Chisna project in Alaska. A 100% interest in the project was purchased by Millrock from Corvus Gold Inc. (“Corvus” or the “Company”) - (TSX: KOR, OTCQX: CORVF) for U$25,000. Corvus will retain a 1% Net Smelter Returns royalty on the claims. Along with the mineral rights, Millrock purchased an exclusive copy of a proprietary exploration database covering the claims and the surrounding district. The data represents an estimated US$11 million worth of exploration work. The claims hold indications of copper-gold porphyry deposits. There are numerous untested targets represented within the proprietary database. Other possible target types in the district include gold-only vein and intrusion-hosted deposits, as well as nickel-platinum group element deposits.
Millrock President & CEO Gregory Beischer stated: “We are pleased to add this project to our portfolio and look forward to utilizing the information that we’ve purchased. Corvus does excellent exploration work but since they are now focused elsewhere it created a great opportunity for Millrock.”
The easternmost portion of the Chisna project is accessed by a series of trails leading from the paved Tok Cutoff highway. The trailhead is four kilometers west of the village of Slana. Fairbanks Alaska lies 420 km by road to the northwest.
The technical information within this document has been reviewed and approved by Gregory A. Beischer, President, CEO and a director of Millrock Resources. Mr. Beischer is a Qualified Person as defined in NI 43-101.
