(TSXV:SAG)(OTCQB:SAGGF) (\"Sterling Metals\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the commencement of exploration activities at the Adeline Copper project (\"Adeline\" or the \"Project\") in Labrador, Canada (Figure 1). Located within the Central Mineral Belt of Labrador, this wholly owned 44 km long sedimentary basin hosts over 250 surface copper-silver occurrences and has many similarities to other world class, shale-hosted copper sulphide deposits. Sterling has compiled and layered 60 years of exploration data, including extensive showings, Induced Polarization (IP), Magnetic Survey, surface trenching and structural geology to develop a number of priority targets that are expected to be drill tested later this summer.HighlightsPermits received for drilling and camp with construction and field activities commencing immediately.Drill pads set up at the Ellis Main prospect, where recent trenching was completed, and initial drilling is expected to commence (Figure 2).The Ellis Main prospect is exposed in a series of 11 trenches along the western end of Seal Lake and was subject of historic work including grab samples and drilling.The strongest historical mineralization occurred in hole SL-11-10 from 90.6 m where 7.9 m @ 1.76% Cu and 56.2 g/t Ag was intercepted 50 m down dip from a surface trench of 4.5 m of 2.5% Cu, 94.3 g/t Ag (2011, Playfair Mining Ltd.).IP data collected by Noranda in the early 90s shows a large anomaly whereby SL-11-10 intercepted the edge of it. Drill pad preparation is beginning to test this anomaly as well as the others across the basin.Completed hyperspectral study with ALS Goldspot Discoveries Ltd., confirming Ellis as the primary target, providing support for numerous secondary targets and new priority areas of interest.Drilling contract with a minimum of 2,000 metres of diamond drilling with Logan Drilling Group International, whom Sterling has worked with in the past.Jeremy Niemi, SVP Exploration and Evaluation comments, \"We are thrilled to be working in Newfoundland and Labrador.
