Rokmaster Receives Drill Permit Extension on Duncan Lake Project
Permit Pipeline Full but Pockets Remain Light Amidst Technical Breakout

The most recent news release (January 27, 2026) announces that Rokmaster has received a two-year extension for its Multi-year Area Based Exploration Permit (MYAB) for the Duncan South area of the Duncan Lake Project in British Columbia. This permit allows for up to 26 drill sites and 15 trenches. The project is focused on critical metals, specifically zinc, with high-grade silver potential. This follows a flurry of recent activity in January 2026, including the receipt of drill permits for the Hanson Property (Nechako Project) and confirmation of the geological age of molybdenite mineralization at the Mystery Property.
The impact of the latest news is non-material from a fundamental valuation standpoint but operationally necessary. - Permit Portfolio: The company now has a "fully permitted" status for its major projects (Nechako, Duncan Lake, Selkirk, Big Copper) heading into 2026. - Strategic Shift: Management is increasingly highlighting silver potential across its portfolio, likely to capitalize on market sentiment, though the core assets remain zinc-lead (Duncan Lake) and copper-moly (Nechako). - Misses: While permits are abundant, there is a lack of actual diamond drilling results. The company has spent 2025 on trenching and permitting rather than testing depth potential with a rig. - Materiality: A permit extension is routine. It prevents the loss of an asset's exploration viability but does not create immediate value until a drill bit is in the ground and results are returned.
Rokmaster Resources is a BC-based explorer. Its flagship project has historically been the Duncan Lake Zinc-Lead-Silver Project. - Duncan Lake: Located in the Slocan Mining Division. It is a carbonate-hosted project with significant historical work. Recent focus has shifted to identifying high-grade silver "sweet spots." - Nechako Project: A large land package (27,178 hectares) in the Stikine Terrane, targeting porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum. It includes the Mystery, Hanson, and Fox-Coconut properties.
