[{"type":"text","content":" Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 11, 2025) - Sorrento Resources Ltd. (CSE: SRS) (OTCQB: SRSLF) (the \"Company\" or \"Sorrento\") a Canadian exploration company focused on the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral projects in Atlantic Canada, is pleased to announce that it has received assay results from its September 2024 soil sampling and prospecting program on the Lord Baron Property. Highlights: B-Horizon Soil sample 246426 returned 0.577g/t Au Five B-Horizon soil samples returned anomalous (>100ppm) copper with sample 246241 returning 461ppm Cu Soil anomalies interpreted to correlate with a Northeast-Southwest trending structure Soil anomalies are open to the south Soil anomalies are <3km from the historic Whalesback and Little Deer Mines in a previously untested area <1km from the Clam Pond gold occurrence (Grab sample which assayed 0.56g/t Au) Figure 1: Locations of the soil samples collected during September 2024. Copper results are displayed with graduated symbology. Figure 2: Locations of the soil samples collected during September 2024. Gold results are displayed with graduated symbology. Soil Sampling and Prospecting Soil sampling and prospecting was carried out during September 2024 on the Lord Baron property and included the collection of 59 B-Horizon soil samples along with one grab sample. Soil samples were collected over a grid approximately 100m x 200m. Analytical results have now been received and reviewed by the company. The soil sampling was concentrated in the Clam Pond area which has had very little prior exploration carried out despite being in close proximity to the historic Whalesback and Little Deer mines. A grab sample of a float boulder was collected in the area of the CSCJV-1 Cu-Au showing; however, it yielded no anomalous results. The results of the soil sampling program are significant since they support the potential for there to be further mineralization in the area. In addition, the soil anomalies are interpreted to correlate with a NE-SW trending fault structure. This fault is sub-parallel with the Whalesback and Little Deer mines geological structures. The company plans to follow up on this \"first pass\" exploration program with further soil sampling, prospecting, and heavy metal content (HMC) till sampling. Table 1: Significant Analytical Resul...
