MilliganVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 13, 2024) - Pacific Empire Minerals Corp. (TSXV: PEMC) (\"Pacific Empire\", \"PEMC\" or the \"Company\"), a British Columbia copper-gold explorer, is pleased to provide additional information following its recently completed Airborne Mobile Magnetotelluric (\"MT\") geophysical survey, completed over the Trident and Pinnacle properties.HighlightsNew Major Copper-Gold Porphyry Drill Target identified from recent airborne geophysical MT survey flownTarget to be tested in September 2024 drill program with aim of making a major copper-gold porphyry discovery akin to Centerra's Mt Milligan MineNot only does this resistivity anomaly come to surface, it also extends to depth and extends up to 1.5km in width, making this an exceptional copper-gold porphyry drill targetThis target has characteristics similar to Centerra Gold's producing Mount Milligan Copper-Gold Mine which has 2024 production guidance of 180-200koz Gold and 55-65M Lbs Cu (This deposit is a major copper/gold producer) The Mount Milligan High Resistivity Anomaly identified the major Copper-Gold Porphyry deposit (Proven and Probable Reserves 961Mlbs @ 0.17% Cu + 2.8Moz @ 0.35 g/t Au) - PEMCs Trident project shares the same Resistivity High AnomalyPEMCs Trident project is known to produce significantly higher copper grades up to 0.84% Cu in drill core, significantly higher than Mount Milligan's Copper Reserves of 0.17%, which would make Trident a very attractive project for any major copper producerCopper-gold mineralization encountered at Trident to date is primarily associated with potassic alteration and coincides with a widespread zone of elevated resistivity. Similarly, located at the primary target zone on Trident, this same level of elevated resistivity continues to depth.Figure 1 - Resistivity Voxel Model in 3D at TridentTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/5412/212768_9901146b44b15b15_002full.jpgFigure 2 - 2D Resistivity Model at Mt.
