Sorrento Resources Launches Inaugural Drill Program at Bottom Brook REE Project

The latest update is out from Sorrento Resources Ltd. ( (TSE:SRS) ).

Sorrento Resources has mobilized drill crews and a diamond drill rig for its first-ever drill campaign at the Bottom Brook rare earth elements project, launching a nine-hole, 1,300-metre program centered on the U3 Prospect to expand known mineralization along strike and at depth while twinning key historical holes to obtain core for metallurgical test work, a step aimed at de-risking and advancing the project toward potential development. In parallel, the company has signed a technical services agreement with Bugden Exploration Inc., a related-party firm controlled in part by CEO Alex Bugden and director Neal Blackmore, a significant transaction under CSE rules that formalizes geological consulting support through 2026 and underscores management’s commitment to systematically building Sorrento’s position in Atlantic Canada’s emerging critical minerals sector.
