SRS · Price

Executive Summary

  • Sorrento Resources reports three large‑scale, high‑grade soil gold anomalies at the Rodgers Cove Gold Project, including a 525 m × 450 m anomaly with peak values of 1.302 g/t Au.
  • Historic trenching intersected 115.6 g/t Au over 1 m on the edge of one anomaly, providing a compelling drill‑ready target.
  • The company will commence a minimum of 1,500 m of diamond drilling later this week and announces the appointment of Joseph Cullen to the board and resignation of Brent Clark.

Key Details

  • Soil Sampling Program (2025): 2,405 samples collected across four grids.
  • Anomaly #1 – North Grid (NG): ~525 m × 450 m; largest identified anomaly.
  • Anomaly #2 – South Grid 1 (SG1): ~400 m × 475 m; adjacent to historic trench with 115.6 g/t Au over 1 m.
  • Anomaly #3 – South Grid 2 (SG2): ~125 m × 150 m.
  • Soil Assay Highlights:
  • Peak soil grade: 1.302 g/t Au.
  • 13 samples > 0.5 g/t Au.
  • 288 samples ≥ 50 ppb Au (anomalous).
  • Historic Trench Result: 115.6 g/t Au over 1 m on the edge of SG1 anomaly – never drill‑tested.
  • Upcoming Drilling: Minimum 1,500 m of diamond drilling to commence later this week targeting the identified anomalies.
  • Board Appointments: Joseph Cullen appointed to Board of Directors (President & CEO of Metalsource Mining Inc.).
  • Board Resignations: Brent Clark resigned from Board of Directors.
  • Qualified Person: Alex Bugden, P. Geo., reviewed and approved all technical information per NI 43‑101.

Notable Quotes

“The identification of multiple large‑scale and high‑grade soil anomalies at Rodgers Cove significantly enhances the Project's potential… The project has never been drill tested, which presents a rare opportunity… We plan to follow these results up with a Diamond Drilling program in the coming weeks.” – Alex Bugden, President, CEO & Qualified Person, Sorrento Resources Ltd.
