[{"type":"text","content":"Vancouver, British Columbia, Oct. 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Surge Copper Corp. (TSXV: SURG) (OTCQB: SRGXF) (Frankfurt: G6D2) (“Surge” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce assay results from drill holes BRG24-253 and 254, two of the ten holes completed during the 2024 field program at its 100%-owned Berg project located in central British Columbia. Both holes were collared from the same location and were targeted to infill the western portion of the deposit to support resource definition. An interactive 3D model including these results can be viewed here: Click Here Highlights Hole BRG24-254 intersected 412 metres grading 0.40% CuEq2 (0.24% Cu, 0.042% Mo, 5.4 g/t Ag, and 0.02 g/t Au) from 36 metres depth including an interval within the supergene sulfide zone of 54 metres grading 0.53% CuEq (0.39% Cu, 0.036% Mo, 4.43 g/t Ag, and 0.04 g/t Au) and an interval within the hypogene system grading 0.68% CuEq over 18 metres (0.52% Cu, 0.042% Mo, 5.36 g/t Ag, 0.05 g/t Au) (copper equivalent “CuEq” is reported net of by-product recoveries, please see Table 1, footnote 2 for details) Hole BRG24-253 intersected 288 metres grading 0.30% CuEq (0.23% Cu, 0.013% Mo, 4.49 g/t Ag, 0.03 g/t Au) from 12 metres depth to the end of the hole including an interval within the supergene sulfide zone of 56 metres grading 0.52% CuEq (0.43% Cu, 0.017% Mo, 5.11 g/t Ag, and 0.05 g/t Au) Both holes are expected to upgrade sizable zones of Inferred resources on the outer and inner margins of the mineralized zone Leif Nilsson, Chief Executive Officer, commented: “We are very pleased with this initial batch of results from the 2024 drill program at Berg. Holes 253 and 254 were from a series of holes that were designed to infill regions of the deposit containing predominantly Inferred resources, in hopes of both upgrading the resource estimation category and increasing the estimated grade. Both holes will help achieve these objectives, and both holes demonstrate the consistency and continuity of mineralization across large volumes at the Berg deposit.” Table 1.
