Redhawk Receives ROW Approval On Copper Creek
VANCOUVER, BC - Redhawk Resources, Inc. has received the Right of Way (ROW) approval from the Arizona State Land Department for approximately 5.5 miles of haul road construction and maintenance between the Company's Copper Creek property and paved public roads near Mammoth, AZ. The ROW is a crucial piece of the permitting process that allows for efficient access to the Copper Creek property and the ability to haul ore or concentrates from the property to existing highway and rail transportation. The ROW is in effect for ten years and is renewable.
Redhawk has also submitted application to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) for several drill roads and drill sites to test newly developed drill targets on Redhawk held lands administered by the BLM within the 7 square mile Copper Creek property. The planned drill program will also test several targets on lands owned by Redhawk within the district that do not require BLM approval.
Joe Sandberg, President of Redhawk Resources commented: "The drilling program will test previously unevaluated or under evaluated target areas with the potential for large deposits of porphyry style copper/molybdenum mineralization in mafic host rocks peripheral to the resource areas of the Keel and American Eagle deposits. The planned drilling program is fully funded by the recently completed private placement and will test these targets."
Brock Riedell, Technical Advisor to the Company commented: "Mafic host rocks are known to have significant grade enhancement over the intrusive host rock counterparts at Resolution, Ray, and Safford in Arizona, El Teniente in Chile, and Oyu Tolgoi in Mongolia. Redhawk and its senior porphyry copper consultants have identified five areas with combined geological, alteration, geochemical, and geophysical characteristics that suggest major areas of porphyry style mineralization may be present at depth."
Redhawk 's preliminary focus is on the accelerated development of its advanced stage Copper Creek copper-molybdenum project in San Manuel, Arizona. The Company also has a gold/silver property in Nevada.
