Rockhaven Drills 9.12 g/t Gold and 90.5 g/t Silver over 1.86 m and 5.29 g/t Gold and 132 g/t Silver over 2.39 m at the Klaza Zone, Klaza Project, Yukon

Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) - Rockhaven Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:RK) (“Rockhaven”) is pleased to announce additional results from diamond drilling at its 100%-owned and road-accessible Klaza property, located in the Dawson Range Gold Belt of southern Yukon. The recently completed 2015 exploration program focused on expanding the current mineral resource and providing key geotechnical and environmental data to advance project engineering.

The fourteen diamond drill holes described in this release are from the western and central portions of the Klaza and BYG zones and sub-parallel vein structures that are developed in the immediate hanging wall and footwall of those zones. Seven of the fourteen holes were designed to evaluate near surface mineralization in the BYG Zone and were not extended deep enough to reach the Klaza Zone. Casing was left in those holes so that they can be deepened at a future date.

The new results further delineate areas of high-grade mineralization within the Klaza and BYG zones, and will be incorporated into an updated resource estimate scheduled for completion later this year. Highlights from the drill holes are as follows:

9.12 g/t gold and 90.5 g/t silver over 1.86 m - Hole 278

5.29 g/t gold and 132 g/t silver over 2.39 m - Hole 275

2.84 g/t gold and 357 g/t silver over 2.14 m - Hole 249

3.62 g/t gold and 102 g/t silver over 1.56 m - Hole 251

4.21 g/t gold and 61.4 g/t silver over 1.69 m - Hole 273

“Drilling in 2015 has successfully expanded the area of mineralization and increased confidence in the continuity of the Klaza and BYG zones,” stated Matt Turner, CEO of Rockhaven. “The geological model in this part of the deposit is now well defined, which will facilitate a more comprehensive resource estimate.”

The following table lists the highlight intervals and other significant intercepts from the announced holes.

+ Represents the sample length. True widths are estimated to be approximately 80-90% of the interval.

HW represents unnamed subsidiary structures that are developed in the hanging wall of the named zone.

FW represents unnamed subsidiary structures that are developed in the footwall of the named zone.

Holes 280, 281, 282, 283, 284, 285 and 287 were collared to test only the BYG Zone and were not extended to test the Klaza Zone. Casing was left in these holes so that the Klaza Zone can be tested at a future date.

*Hole 284 twinned hole 283 to core a vein that was not recovered in hole 283.

Central and Western Klaza and BYG Zones

The current mineral resources for the Klaza property includes parts of the Central and Western Klaza zones. The BYG Zone lies southwest and subparallel to the Klaza Zone, about 150 m into the hanging wall. None of the BYG Zone mineralization was included in the current mineral resource.

The Central Klaza Zone is a laterally extensive complex of steeply dipping and anastomosing veins, breccias and sheeted veinlets emplaced within a 25 to 100 m wide structural corridor. The Western Klaza Zone consists of discrete veins that tend to be higher grade than those observed further to the east. Mineralization in the Central and Western Klaza zones and adjacent subsidiary structures has been traced over a 1,300 m strike length and to a maximum depth of 325 m. The Klaza Zone remains open to extension at depth, into the footwall and along strike. The BYG Zone has received much less drilling than the Klaza Zone. It has been traced over an 850 m strike length and to a maximum depth of 150 m. It is open to extension at depth and along strike.

The 2015 field program at the Klaza property consisted of 13,738 m drilled in 56 holes. Maps and sections can be viewed at the Rockhaven's website at www.rockhavenresources.com. Remaining results will be released once the last of the assays are received, compiled and evaluated.

All analyses for rock and core samples from the 2015 program were performed by ALS Minerals with sample preparation in Whitehorse and assays and geochemical analyses in North Vancouver. Core samples were routinely analyzed for gold by fire assay followed by atomic absorption (Au-AA24) and 48 other elements by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ME-MS61). Samples that exceeded the detection limits of the routine methods were assayed for silver, copper, lead and zinc by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (Ag/Cu/Pb/Zn - OG62) and gold by gravimetric analysis (Au-GRA22). Rigorous procedures were in place regarding sample collection, chain of custody and data entry. Certified assay standards, coarse reject duplicates, field duplicates and blanks were routinely inserted into the sample stream to ensure integrity of the assay process. All of the results reported have passed the QAQC screening.

The 2015 program was managed by Archer, Cathro & Associates (1981) Limited (Archer Cathro). Technical information in this news release has been approved by Matthew R. Dumala, P.Eng., a geological engineer with Archer Cathro and qualified person for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101.
