TSXV: RKR
OTC Pink: RKMSF

VANCOUVER, Aug. 23, 2017 /CNW/ - Rokmaster Resources Corp. ("Rokmaster" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received an amended Mines Act Permit (the "Permit") from the British Columbia Ministry of Energy and Mines. The new Permit is an area based permit authorizing exploration activities including surface diamond drilling on a multi-year and multi-drill hole basis, for the Company's 100% owned Duncan Lake Zinc-Lead Property (the "Property"). The Permit expires October 31, 2022.

The Company commenced a preliminary program consisting of further data collection and compilation. This work includes recovery, re-organization and re-logging of selected historical drill core, analysis of selected core intervals for silver and gold and structural study to target initial drill holes. Initial assay results have been received and will be released when compiled.

The initial start date planned for drilling to commence has been pushed to early fall to provide for the lifting of forest fire closures, drill crew availability and completion of the equity financing.
