Pacific Empire Mobilizes Geophysical Crew to Jean Marie
August 24, 2020 - Vancouver, BC, Canada - Pacific Empire Minerals Corp. (TSXV: PEMC) (OTCQB:
PEMSF) (“Pacific Empire”, “PEMC” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has mobilized a
geophysical crew to its Jean Marie Project (“Jean Marie” or the “Project”) . Jean Marie is a copper-gold-
silver-molybdenum porphyry project located 50 km west of Centerra Gold Inc.’s Mt. Milligan copper-gold
mine in central British Columbia. The Jean Marie Project has multiple mineralized zones which are open
for expansion and has several additional exploration targets across the Project.
Highlights:
• Ground based magnetic survey to cover area of recent rock sampling at C Zone South,
where rock sampling and trenching (PEMC News Release, August 11, 2020) identified
significant gold mineralization, including 4.0 g/t gold over 8 metres from trench sampling
• PEMC geologists are currently conducting follow -up geochemical sampling to better
understand lateral extent and significance of gold mineralization at Jean Marie
Brad Peters, Pacific Empire’s President and CEO, states, “ Detailed ground magnetics and follow -up
geochemical sampling is the next step to wards characterizing the controls on gold mineralization and
identifying the most prospective target areas prior to the initiation of drilling in 2020. In addition, the
presence of significant gold mineralization from recent sampling underscores the potential at Jean Marie
for a gold-enriched copper porphyry system.”
About Jean Marie
The Jean Marie consists of 7,350 ha of contiguous mineral claims in north -central British
Columbia situated 50 kilometres west of Centerra Gold Ltd.’s Mt. Milligan copper -gold mine.
PEMC holds an option to earn a 100% interest in the Jean Marie . The Jean Marie straddles the
contact between the Jean Marie multiphase stock and andesitic volcanics of the Late Triassic to
Early Jurassic Witch Lake. Several drill -indicated zones exist on the Jean Marie, two of which
have only been historically drilled to a maximum depth of 92 metres. Recent logging operations
and associated infrastructure have made road -based drilling activities possible. The most recent
drilling at any of the three drill indicated zones was completed at the B zone in 1997. The
final hole of the 1997 program intersected 184 m @ 0.33% copper, which includes an interval
of hydrothermal breccia grading 1.2% copper over 27 metres .** Numerous additional
exploration targets exist on the Property, particularly along a 9 kilometre trend that extends
southeasterly from the A zone.

** The Company has not verified historical drilling results but has reviewed the historical sampling
and analytical procedures and has no reason to believe the historically reported results are
unreliable or misleading.
