Sorrento Resources (CSE: SRS) (OTCQB: SRSLF) has expanded its Lord Baron Copper-Gold Project in Newfoundland by staking two additional mineral licenses covering 750 hectares. This expansion increases the project's total size to 6,400 hectares, consolidating Sorrento's strategic position in the Springdale district.

The newly acquired land includes five documented mineral occurrences, three historic shafts, and two areas with minor massive sulphide ore extraction. This expansion provides opportunities for new grassroots discoveries in largely underexplored areas, potentially enhancing the project's value for Sorrento Resources and its shareholders.

About the Lord Baron Project

The Lord Baron Project is located on the Springdale peninsula, Newfoundland and Labrador near the towns of Springdale, Little Bay, and Beachside. The region has a rich mining history and is host to a skilled workforce, several diamond drilling contractors, a NI-43-101 compliant assay lab, and mining equipment and parts suppliers. In addition, it is adjacent to deep water ports, industrial hydroelectric power supply, and is in proximity to the Nugget Pond mill.

The Project, following the staking announced today, consists of 15 individual mineral licenses made up of 256 individual claims for an area of 6,400ha. The Project is predominately underlain by rocks of the Lush's Bight Group of the tectonostratigraphic Dunnage Zone of the Appalachian Orogen. The Lush's Bight Group is a Cambro-Ordovician sequence of ophiolitic metavolcanic rocks representing a portion of the oceanic crust of the proto-Atlantic Ocean, the Iapetus Sea. The group has been metamorphosed to greenschist facies and has undergone extensive faulting related to the initial formation of oceanic crust as well as the Taconic and Acadian Orogenies.

The Lush's Bight Group contains more base metal sulphide showings per square kilometer than any other group of rocks in Newfoundland. The showings typically occur in an envelope of chlorite schist.
