CSE: RKL
Overview
The Beryllium Butte Project is located in Juab County, Utah, located 30 kilometres east of Materion Corp.'s (NYSE: MTRN) currently producing Spor Mountain Mine.
Saddle Target
The Saddle Target is interpreted to have strong similarities with the Miocene Spor Mountain Formation that hosts beryllium deposits currently in production at the Spor Mountain Mine. The prospective beryllium-bearing tuff breccia unit has a limited subcrop / outcrop exposure, measuring 60 by 75 metres, overlain by alluvium/colluvium cover to the west, and younger volcanic tuffs to the north and east.
Past Sampling
Past sampling by Rockland personnel returned continuous chip samples from outcrop over 25.5m averaging 1,142 ppm Beryllium (“Be”), with a higher-grade portion returning 2,423 ppm Be over 6.13m. A follow up program returned samples with a peak value of 2,130 ppm Be and an average of 1,179 ppm Be. Associated values of rubidium and cesium are strongly anomalous in the Saddle Target area and are useful pathfinder metals for beryllium.
