Pacific Ridge Exploration Ltd. (TSX-V: PEX, OTCQB: PEXZF) is focused on becoming a leading copper-gold exploration company in British Columbia. Pacific Ridge’s flagship project is the Kliyul copper-gold project, located in the prolific Quesnel Trough, approximately 50 km southeast of Centerra Gold Inc.’s Kemess mine. It is close to existing infrastructure. Kliyul is in a similar geological environment to other copper-gold porphyry deposits in BC such as Kemess (Centerra), Mt. Milligan (Centerra), Red Chris (Newcrest), and Saddle North (Newmont). Kliyul hosts five porphyry targets: Kliyul Main Zone ("KMZ"), Bap Ridge, Ginger, M39, and Paprika. Each target represents an interpreted porphyry centre over an underexplored 6 km long mineralized trend. The 2023 exploration is fully funded. Kliyul copper-gold project: 7,000 m drill program underway.
