Pacific Empire Bolsters Stable of Targets at Jean Marie
Pacific Empire Bolsters Stable of Targets at Jean Marie
June 18, 2020 - Vancouver, BC, Canada - Pacific Empire Minerals Corp. (TSXV: PEMC) (OTCQB:
PEMSF) (“Pacific Empire”, “PEMC” or the “Company”) , a hybrid prospect generator, is pleased to
announce it has expanded its Jean Marie Project (“Jean Marie” or the “Project”) by way of staking over
1,000 hectares (“Jean Marie East”) of prospective mineral tenure, contiguous to and immediately east of
the Project. Jean Marie is a copper -gold-silver-molybdenum porphyry pro ject located 50 km west of
Centerra Gold Inc.’s Mt. Milligan copper-gold mine in central British Columbia. The Jean Marie Project
now covers a total area of 7,355 hectares, has multiple mineralized zones which are open for expansion and
has several additional exploration targets across the Project.
Highlights:
• Staking of additional 10 square kilometres with prospective geology, as well as
geophysical and geochemical data
• Incorporates historical geochemica l anomalies with values up to 4 ,400 ppm copper-in-
soil, 655 ppm copper-in-stream sediment
• Prospective porphyry dikes and plugs mapped along incised creeks
Jean Marie soil geochemistry
A pronounced geochemical trend consisting of anomalous copper -in-soil is spatially associated with the
northwest trending Jean Marie fault and extends over a strike length of 7.5 kilometres. In the vicinity of
the A and B zones (Figure 1), copper geochemi stry is obscured by recent cover but mineralization
potentially extends further to the northwest.
Brad Peters, Pacific Empire’s President and CEO, states, “ The extent and tenor of anomalous copper-in-
soil geochemistry on the Jean Marie Project presents se veral exploration targets beyond the historical A,
B and C zones. The recently acquired mineral tenure to the east of the original Jean Marie Project provides
the Company with yet another exploration target, that can be cost-effectively explored.”

Jean Marie East
Historical exploration at Jean Marie East was conducted by the N.B.C. Syndicate comprised of Cominco,
Granby Mining Corporation, Conwest Exploration Co. Limited, Duval International Corporation, and
Messrs. W. Bacon and J. Crowhurst as part of a regional initiative carried out in various parts of British
Columbia during the period 1968-1970.
Anomalous silts collected during routine prospecting activities in 1968 were followed up with systematic
soil sampling, in the search for copper porphyry mineralization. Although highly anomalous soil samples
were discovered, the anomalies were never followed up with drill testing.
