Comprising 12,000m diamond drilling, Rockhaven’s proposed 2014 program is expected to focus on delineating and expanding areas of high-grade gold and silver mineralization (>8.00 g/t gold EQ).
Prmary drill targets will include the Western BRX Zone, where 2013 trenching and limited broadly-spaced drilling have returned strong results over a 750m strike length, including 68.27 g/t gold EQ over 3.25m from trench TR-13-58 and 8.00 g/t gold EQ over 15.62 m from hole DH-12-96.
Rockhaven Resources CEO Matt Turner said the company will build on the success and knowledge gained from recent programs at the Klaza property that have outlined multiple mineralized structures over long strike lengths.
"We are now in a position to focus on defining the higher-grade parts of these extensive systems, while advancing other blue-sky targets within this evolving gold district," Turner added.
Additional targets include the Western Klaza Zone, the Central Klaza Zone beneath hole DH-12-133, as well as the Pearl Zone, where trenching and drilling returned numerous gold and silver-rich intervals.
In addition, Rockhaven has planned a small proportion of drilling to evaluate particularly encouraging areas in the other six known mineralized zones, identified through drilling and trenching at the property since 2010.
Some prospecting, geological mapping and geophysical surveying is also scheduled to be conducted in other areas of the property to define additional targets for drilling or trenching.
The 2014 exploration program is scheduled to commence early next month.
