(TSX-V: JLR) (\"Jiulian\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that it has received a five-year area-based permit from the British Columbia Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources to establish up to sixty (60) drill sites and four (4) kilometers of exploration trail for core drilling on its Big Kidd Property located near Merritt, British Columbia. The Company also announces that it has contracted SJ Geophysics Ltd. of Delta, BC, to complete a high resolution Volterra-3D array IP survey (www.sjgeophysics.com/volterra) centered over the Big Kidd Breccia in advance of a 4000-meter winter drill program, which is expected to commence in early 2019. The 3D IP survey was completed over the weekend and results of the IP survey will be released once the final deliverables have been received by the Company.\n\n\n \nJiulian has also commenced construction of core logging and cutting infrastructure at a warehouse facility in West Kelowna, BC, only 87 kms from the property along highway 97C.
