Vancouver, British Columbia, October 5, 2021: Rockland Resources Ltd. (the "Company" or "Rockland") (CSE: RKL) is pleased to announce it has signed an option agreement to earn a 100% interest in the Stetham Uranium project located only 30 kilometers northeast of the Cote Lake Gold Project, one of Ontario’s largest resource development projects, owned by Iamgold Corporation (64.75%) and Sumitomo Metal Mining (27.75 %).
The Stetham Uranium project consists of 268 claims covering 5,360 hectares, located in Stetham Township, just west of Highway 144, which links with the mining centers of Timmins approximately 110 kilometers to the northeast, and Sudbury approximately 230 km to the south.
Highlights include:
Rockland’s CEO, Mike England stated "With the uranium market heating up so much we felt it a prudent move to make this acquisition for our shareholders. Historic drilling, while limited, shows widespread uranium and we look forward to getting on the property in the coming weeks to get a lay of the land”.
The Company can earn a 100% interest (less NSR) in the Stetham Uranium project through cumulative option payments of 1.2 million common shares in the Company. A 2% NSR will be granted to the vendors and the Company will have an option to purchase 50% of the NSR for $1,000,000 at any time.
* The company cautions that results and comparisons to other properties are not necessarily indicative of results on the company's property.
* Previous referenced drilling on the Stetham Uranium project was completed in 1968 by Jonsmith Mines by Beach Gold in 1977. The Company treats the historic data as relevant and significant, but the Company is not able to verify the drill hole results, nor the assay techniques and laboratories.
Garry Clark, P.Geo, a qualified person under National Instrument 43-101, is the qualified person responsible for reviewing and approving the geological contents of this news release as they pertain to the Stetham Uranium project.
