March 28, 2024 – Vancouver, BC, Canada – Pacific Empire Minerals Corp. (TSXV: PEMC) (“Pacific Empire”, “PEMC” or the “Company”), a British Columbia copper-gold explorer, announces Expert
Geophysics Ltd. (“Expert”) has commenced an airborne MobileMT™ survey at its 100% owned Trident and Pinnacle copper-gold projects in the South Hogem Copper-Gold Belt.
Highlights
• MagnetoTelluric (MT) survey method capable of detecting basement electromagnetic (EM)
conductors and anomalous resistivity zones which are indicative of potential copper-gold porphyry systems.
• Planned surveying totals 164 line-kilometres to provide coverage of primary target area (historical
assays at Trident which include DDH-1971-13: 70.07m @ 0.69% Cu, DDH 2007-2: 100.00m @
0.59% Cu and 0.18 g/t Au including 2.00m @ 2.73% Cu and 0.36 g/t Au).
• The MT survey will also cover an additional target located on PEMC’s 100% owned Pinnacle Property situated directly west and adjacent to the Trident. Utilization of this modern geophysical dataset will facilitate the identification and prioritization of target areas for drilling currently
anticipated during the Summer/Fall 2024 exploration season.
Brad Peters, President, CEO & Director, commented: “We are excited to begin the survey and are looking forward to being able to see to depths of over one kilometre beneath the surface at our 100% owned
Trident and Pinnacle projects, west of Centerra Gold’s operating Mount Milligan copper-gold mine. The objective is to identify potential “plumbing systems “because if you are looking for large copper deposits
you need a large plumbing system to deliver the necessary fluids and metals. Our goal is simple, discover the next gold-enriched copper porphyry deposit within this district. Once results are received and
analyzed for this MT survey, we currently anticipate drilling these targets during the Summer/Fall 2024 field season. Trident for the very first time is 100% owned by a public company with an updated porphyry
geological model established by our skilled technical team.”
