Rockcliff drilling intersects high grade copper at dickstone, 3.0% copper, 0.2g/t gold, 0.2% zinc, 9.2g/t silver over 2.3m

Tuesday, Mar 05, 2013

TORONTO, March 4, 2013 /CNW/ - Rockcliff Resources Inc. (RCR: TSXV) is pleased to announce that drilling has intersected high grade copper mineralization at its Dickstone Property.

The high grade copper intersection is associated within a large, flat plunging,virtually untested DPEM and bore hole anomaly measuring a minimum 250m wide by 800m long.  Additional geophysics will be completed to determine the limits of the anomaly and where the anomaly is strengthening.

High grade copper mineralization of hole RDS13-003 is associated with massive sulphides consisting of pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, pyrite and sphalerite within a bimodal altered host rock ranging from rhyolitic to mafic in composition.  Last year's drill hole RDS12-002 also intersected the bottom edge of the same sulphide anomaly approximately 170m below the bottom of the mine workings and approximately 100m north of hole RDS13-003.  It intersected 2.7% copper, 0.4g/t gold, 0.3% zinc, 8.6g/t silver across 2.5m.
