As announced on November 28, 2018 and May 6, 2019, Surge has acquired a 100% interest in 11 claim blocks comprising 26,455 hectares (265 sq km) in the Omineca region of north-central British Columbia, approximately 150 km north of Fort St. James.

The region is host to numerous operating mines, good infrastructure including experienced exploration and supporting services.

Prominent among early discoveries in the Omineca region were the nearby Lustdust/Stardust property (Sun Metals Corp. TSX-V: SUNM) covering a large, coherent integrated porphyry-skarn, epithermal system; the Kwanika property (Serengeti Resources Inc./POSCO Daewoo TSX-V: SIR) a promising advanced stage copper-gold project; the Lorraine property (Lorraine Copper Corp. TSX-V: LLC) host to a large copper/gold NI 43-101 compliant resource. The tenures are located between the Kemess North project being developed by Centerra Gold's subsidiary Aurico Metals and Centerra Gold's operation Mt Milligan mine.
