• The prohibition of any exploration activities by Rockhaven on LSCFN Class A or Class B lands prior to the completion of a separate exploration agreement; and,
• Rockhaven and LSCFN agree to work toward negotiation of a full economic participation agreement in tandem with any future feasibility study that might be conducted for the project.

"Rockhaven is very pleased to have the support of the Little Salmon Carmacks First Nation and we look forward to continuing our excellent relationship in a more formal manner," says Rockhaven's CEO Matt Turner. "Chief Eric Fairclough and Council have been very proactive in working with Rockhaven and the dedicated employees we have hired from the LSCFN have greatly contributed to the exploration success at Klaza. We look forward to commencing negotiations on a socio-economic participation agreement as we continue to advance the project towards development."
