We present results from a quantum and semiclassical theoretical study of the rho <sub>xy</sub> and rho <sub>xx</sub> resistivities of a high mobility 2D electron gas in the presence of a dilute random distribution of tubes with magnetic flux Phi and radius R, for arbitrary values of k<sub>f</sub>R and F=e Phi /h. We report on novel Aharonov-Bohm-type oscillations in rho <sub>xy</sub> and rho <sub>xx</sub>, related to degenerate quantum flux tube resonances, that satisfy the selection rule (k<sub>f</sub>R)<sup>2</sup>=4F(n+1/2), with n an integer. We discuss possible experimental conditions where these oscillations may be observed.
