The Bottom Brook project consists of 16 mineral licences totalling 15,150ha, located approx. 40km south of the port community of Corner Brook, Newfoundland. The project is accessible through a network of secondary roads, immediately adjacent to the Trans-Canada Highway. Sorrento holds an option to earn up to a 100% interest.
