One of the anomalies of stocks moving up the charts – while most of the rest of the market was taking a pounding - is appropriately named Surge Exploration Inc. (TSX-Venture:SUR).
The Vancouver-based miner has recently acquired 100% interest in additional Copper Gold mineral claims adjoining its Copper Porphyry Mineral Claim in North Central British Columbia.
These two new mineral claims (6,790 hectares) add to the Company's current sizable land position within B.C.’s prolific Omineca Mining District. Surge now has Copper-Gold mineral claims totaling 26,455 hectares (265 sq km) in the area.
Said CEO Tim Fernback, "We are very excited to acquire these key additional mineral claims in the Omineca Region. This region is host to numerous operating mines, good infrastructure including experienced exploration and supporting services. Our exploration team believes that this land package is strategically situated to exploit the high copper-gold values of the region."
Shares, well, surged half a cent, or 14.3%, to four cents, on volume of 89,000
