Surge Exploration Outlines Newly Acquired Mineral Mountain Copper Gold Property 2019 Work Program

05.12.2018  |  The Newswire
Vancouver, December 05, 2018 - Surge Exploration Inc. (the "Company" or "Surge") (TSXV: SUR, OTCQB:SURJF, FRA: DJ5C) is pleased to announce that the planning and budgeting for the 2019 exploration program is underway on the recently acquired group of nine claim blocks comprising 19,665 hectares (197 sq km) in the Omineca region of north-central British Columbia (See original acquisition News Release dated November 28, 2018) .

2019 Exploration Program

Initially a two-phase exploration program is being proposed by the Surge Geological Team.

Phase One will be carried out on lower elevation terrain once spring breakup takes place and will involve reconnaissance prospecting, geological mapping and a heavy metal panned concentrate sampling survey of all relevant drainages within the claim blocks.

Phase Two is planned to follow-up the work completed in Phase One as well as to extend the initial surveys into the higher elevations of the claims as winter snows retreat. Contingent on Phase One results, follow-up could also include additional soil sampling, geophysics and trenching.

Mr. Tim Fernback, President & CEO of Surge comments "Following up on the successful acquisition of this significant land package in our home province of British Columbia, we are excited to outline the Phase One and Phase Two exploration programs at Mineral Mountain. We are looking forward to the commencement of our multi-phase phase exploration program in 2019, once we can effectively access the property at the conclusion of the spring thaw period. This work is the precursor exploration needed to effectively launch of a subsequent diamond drilling program on the property."

About the Property

The Omineca Group of 9 claim blocks (see map) lie in the Omineca Mining Division of north-central British Columbia, approximately 150 km north of Fort St. James. The claims are 100% owned by Surge, subject to TSX Venture Exchange ("Exchange") approval and are not subject to any royalty terms, back-in rights, payments or any other agreements and encumbrances.

B.C. Minfile assessment report data indicates that most of the area covered by the Omineca Group claim blocks were at one time or another covered by staking during surges of exploration in B.C. dating from the 1940's to present day. Largely the claims appear to have been minimally explored with little follow-up. However, some work was recorded on several claims with results for stream sediment sampling showing anomalous to highly anomalous results for gold in a few areas. These areas were recommended for detailed follow-up, however due to a previous commodity price downturn no further work was recorded.

Prominent among early discoveries in BC's Omineca Region is the nearby Lustdust/Stardust property (Sun Metals Corp. TSX-V: SUNM) currently under option from Lorraine Copper Corp. (TSX-V:LLC). This property covers a large, coherent integrated porphyry-skarn, epithermal system. The project has notable drill intercepts such as 15 meters grading 24.04 g/t gold and 2.2% copper (hole 02-09); 9.7 meters grading 36.7 g/t gold, 182.6 g/t silver and 2.89% copper (hole 02-03); 59 meters grading 0.67 g/t gold and 0.80% copper (hole 01-44); and 5.0 meters grading 13.3 g/t gold, 899 g/t silver and 6.8% combined lead-zinc (hole 03-09). These results were publicly disclosed in a News Release by Sun Metals Corp and by Lorraine Copper Corp. (News Release) on November 14, 2018.

Other notable projects nearby to the Mineral Mountain property, include the Kwanika property (Serengeti Resources Inc./POSCO Daewoo TSX-V: SIR) a promising advanced stage copper-gold project; the Lorraine property (Lorraine Copper Corp. TSX-V: LLC) which is the host to a large copper-gold National Instrument (NI) 43-101 compliant resource. The Lorraine Copper Corp. tenures are located between the Kemess North project being developed by Centerra Gold's subsidiary Aurico Metals and Centerra Gold's operation at the Mount Milligan mine.

The Stardust Property contains a NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource, known as the Canyon Creek deposit, completed by GeoSim Services Inc. in 2010. It contains an indicated mineral resource of 1,253,000 tonnes grading 1.33% Cu, 1.426 g/t Au and 33.0 g/t Ag with a copper equivalent cut-off grade of 1.0%. An additional 3,124,000 tonnes grading 1.12% Cu, 1.366 g/t Au and 25.4 g/t Ag is classified as inferred. The presently defined mineral resource extends some 600 m along strike and down dip and remains open in all directions (this work was fully disclosed in the Lorraine Copper News Release June 20, 2016).

Mineralization hosted on nearby and/or adjacent properties is not necessarily indicative of mineralization hosted on the Company's Mineral Mountain Property.
