VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwired – March 24, 2017) – Pacific Ridge Exploration Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:PEX) (“Pacific Ridge” or the “Company”) reports that drilling has commenced on its Poker Brown gold-silver project, Nevada. The program will include an estimated 1,000 m of reverse circulation drilling in four holes. The target is two recently defined IP chargeability anomalies that underlie the main area of historical surface workings and gold showings on the property, including vein, breccia and stockwork mineralization accompanied by a broad zone of alteration. The chargeability anomalies are interpreted to be caused by disseminated pyrite mineralization, which is associated with the gold and silver mineralization at Poker Brown. Results will be announced once all assays have been received.
