[{"type":"text","content":" Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 26, 2026) - 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 provide an update on ongoing drilling activities at its 100%-owned Rodgers Cove Gold Project in Newfoundland and Labrador. Drilling at Rodgers Cove is progressing as planned, with a total of six (6) drill holes completed for 1,048 metres on the SG1 soil anomaly, as previously reported in the Company's March 4, 2026, news release. Four (4) of these holes have been logged and sampled, with shipment to the assay laboratory anticipated in the coming days. Visible gold has been observed in drill hole RC26-001 (previously reported) and in drill hole RC26-004 at a depth of 72.41 metres. In addition, all four logged holes contain intervals of significant sulphide mineralization (estimated 1-10%), including chalcopyrite, pyrite, sphalerite, arsenopyrite, pyrrhotite, and boulangerite. The Company has now mobilized the drill rig to the NG soil anomaly, located approximately 1.25 kilometres northeast of SG1, where drilling of hole RC26-007 has commenced. A total of seven (7) holes is planned at NG. As a result of encouraging early observations, the Company has expanded the current drill program from 1,500 metres to approximately 2,500 metres. Figure 1. Visible gold in drill hole RC26-004 *The presence of visible gold in drill core is considered encouraging; however, it should not be considered a definitive indicator of gold grade or continuity of mineralization. Visible gold observations are qualitative in nature and may not be representative of overall gold distribution within the drill hole or across the property. Analytical assay results are required to determine the actual gold content of the sampled intervals. Bottom Brook Update The Company also reports that a total of 377 core samples, including QA/QC samples, from four (4) of ten (10) completed drill holes at its Bottom Brook Project have been submitted to Activation Laboratories Ltd. in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis. Additional samples will be submitted as core processing is completed. Assay results are expected within four (4) to six (6) weeks. All core samples were saw-cut at the Bugden Expl...
