Rogue Resources Provides Project Update
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Apr 28, 2014) -
Rogue Resources Inc. (TSX-VENTURE:RRS) ("Rogue" or the "Company")
is pleased to provide an exploration update for its various
projects and an overview of plans moving forward. The Company
recently acquired a high-grade gold asset in the Val d'Or district
of Quebec and is now in discussions regarding additional assets to
continue expanding its presence in this prolific camp. The Company
has a number of advance stage projects, specifically the Langmuir
Nickel and the Radio Hill Iron Project, which it is currently
assessing strategic options for in order to maximize value and
provide investors with a refined Company focus.
East-West Gold Project, Val d'Or, Quebec.
Data compilation and 3D modeling relating to the historic and
more recent drilling completed on the East-West Gold Project near
Val, d'Or, Quebec is now underway. This work is required prior to
the next round of drilling as a thorough compilation on this
project has never been completed. Historic drill results at the
East-West Project include:
- 85-CD-55: From 143.56m to 146.3m: 72.4 g/t Au / 3.2m
- 86-CD-78: From 125.27m to 129.24m: 84.48 g/t Au / 3.97m
- 87-CD-156: From 199.03m to 201.17m: 123.96 g/t Au / 2.14m
All of the above results were drilled between surface and 200
meters vertical with very little drilling ever having been done on
this project below 200 meters vertical. The Company believes, given
the nature of the geology at East-West and the frequency of mines
in the Val d'Or Camp which often continue to depths below 2,000
meters, that significant potential remains at this project.
Compilation and project supervision work will be completed by
Géologica Inc., Val d'Or, Quebec, the lead geological consulting
firm used by Integra Gold Corp for its Lamaque Gold Project. Other
high-profile operations in the area include Osisko's Canadian
Malartic Gold Mine, Agnico Eagle's Goldex Mine.
"The Company is determined to take the steps needed to take
advantage of the numerous opportunities this market has created, as
well as to extract the value in Rogue's existing assets. The
East-West Project is an under-explored, high potential asset in one
of the world's most prolific gold belts which will be used as a
stepping stone as the Company continues to build its presence in
this increasingly active district," commented Company President and
CEO, John de Jong.
Other Assets:
Discussions are now underway and work continues on creating a
strategy to help realize the value of its 100% owned Langmuir
Nickel deposit where over $7,000,000 of work has defined a near
surface, high-grade nickel, PGM deposit neighboring Timmins,
Ontario with operating nickel mills in the immediate area.
A complete review of Radio Hill Iron Ore Project has been
completed with recommendations made to conduct additional drilling
and metallurgical test work. This will enable the Company to
complete a definitive resource estimate. More than 10,000 meters of
diamond drilling was completed in 2011/2012 which will be
incorporated into any future plans. The Company will provide an
update on its plans for the Radio Hill Project in the near
future.
The Company's corporate office in Timmins, Ontario, has been
listed for sale as it is no longer required for operations. The
proceeds of the sale will provide non-dilutive capital which will
be directed towards the Company's exploration initiatives.
The Company also announces it has entered into a service
agreement with Mi3 Communications Financières Inc. who will perform
investor relations services on behalf of the Company in Quebec. The
Company continues to expand and adapt its marketing efforts and
will be working closely with Mi3 to communicate the Rogue story
moving forward.
Subject to regulatory approval, the Company has granted a total
of 923,223 stock options (the "Options"), including 692,445 Options
to Directors and Officers, 180,778 Options to employees and
consultants and 50,000 Options to an investor relations provider.
