Corporate Prof ile CNSX: WR Shares outstanding: 10,400,000 Recent price: $0.05-0.10 Developing a new VMS mining camp in northwest British Columbia The Ecstall River Project n Numerous mineralized showings open along strike and to depth n Excellent potential to add substantial tonnage n Similar geological environment to producing Myra Falls Mine and past-producing Britannia Mine, BC n Clusters of showings and deposits along a 20-km belt n Favourable exploration results from Noranda and Atna Resources n Near to natural harbour on ocean. Combining of the claim groups, held by two mineral land holders into one large project, the Ecstall River Project offers an opportunity to explore and develop an entire mining camp. This polymetallic volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) project comprises a roughly 20-km belt hosted in metasediments and metavolcanic rocks, starting about 12 km north of tidewater on Douglas Channel, northwest British Columbia. The belt contains a number of discreet deposits and showings displaying concentrations of copper, zinc, lead, gold and silver. About 52 km northeast of the Ecstall River Project lies the town of Kitimat, home to Rio Tinto Alcan's aluminum smelter, located at the head of Douglas Channel, where the building of at least two liquefied natural gas generating stations is planned. Other service and supply centres include the town of Terrace and the Port of Prince Rupert. The claim groups are 100%-owned and/or controlled by Winrock Resources (southern portion – Packsack deposit, Horsefly, Steelhead and Thirteen Creek Cirque showings) and Mindat Research Corp. (northern portion – Ecstall deposit). At the present time, helicopter is the fastest and most practical way to access the various claim groups. In addition to numerous identified mineralized showings, Winrock's Packsack deposit hosts 2.7 million tonnes grading 0.5% copper, 34 grams silver/tonne and 0.3 grams gold/tonne and is open for expansion. Mindat's Ecstall deposit hosts 6.35 million tonnes grading 0.6% copper, 20.0 grams silver/tonne, 0.5 grams gold/tonne and 2.5% zinc. These types of VMS deposits in British Columbia, which usually occur in clusters along a trend, hosted extremely successful mining operations. Nystar's Myra Falls Mine south of Campbell River, Vancouver Island, has been in operation for 46 years. The Britannia Mine on Howe Sound north of CONTACT: Winrock Resources Inc. CNSX: WR Suite 501 – 325 Howe Street Vancouver, BC V6C 1Z7 Vancouver, was once the largest copper producer in the British Empire. Between 1905 and 1977, the Britannia ore bodies yielded approximately 47.8 million tonnes of ore grading 1.1% copper, 0.65% zinc, 6.8 grams silver/tonne and 0.6 grams gold/ tonne. Winrock Resources is planning a financing in order to commence a diamond drilling program with the objectives of bringing the historical resources up to NI 43-101 reporting standards and to investigate the potential of expanding the known mineralized showings that remain open along strike and to depth. Horsefly Zone Located southeast of the Packsack deposit, the Horsefly Zone hosts massive and disseminated pyrite and minor sphalerite (zinc), chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite occurring along a shear zone within highly metamorphosed felsic volcanic. The mineralized area measures intermittently over 1,500 metres by 60 metres along a 150-degree trend. The Horsefly Zone has returned a surface assay grading 3.8% zinc, 33.0 grams silver/tonne, 0.5 grams gold/tonne and 0.4% copper. Atna Resources carried out an eight-hole diamond drilling program in 1995 on the Horsefly showing that returned 3.0 metres grading 1.543% copper (Hole 95HF8) as well as 2.8 metres of 1.685% copper (Hole 96HF6). The highest grades encountered were in hole 95HF4 that assayed 5.637% copper over 0.3 metres and 3.532% copper over 0.6 metres. The Horsefly mineralization is open along strike. tel:+604-563-7912 fax: 604-685-3833 www.winrockresources.com info@winrockresources.com Accessible by float plane or helicopter.
