Copper Fox Announces Corporate Update on Activities

20.08.2019  |  Newsfile

Calgary, August 20, 2019 - Copper Fox Metals Inc. (TSXV: CUU) (OTC Pink: CPFXF) ("Copper Fox" or the "Company") is pleased to provide shareholders and update of activities on its 100% owned Van Dyke and Sombrero Butte copper projects.

Highlights:

  • The two drill holes disclosed in this news release were not included in the maiden resource estimate completed in 2014.

  • At Van Dyke DDH OXY-41 returned an average of 0.208% acid soluble copper ("ASCu") over a 100.58m core interval; the mineralized interval is open at depth.

  • At Van Dyke DDH OXY-42 returned an average of 0.306 % ASCu over a 70.10m core interval; the mineralized interval is open at depth.

  • Analytical results for four additional drill holes are pending. These results are expected within the next few weeks.

  • The Geologic Field Operations Plan ("GFOP") to complete the mapping and sampling program at Sombrero Butte has been approved by the Arizona State Land Department. The program is scheduled to commence in mid-September and be completed within a month.

Elmer B. Stewart, President and CEO of Copper Fox, stated, "The analytical data from the drill holes extends the mineralized envelope for the Van Dyke deposit at least 100m to the north into an area of the project for which no detailed historical analytical data is available. The drill holes for which results are pending, if mineralized, should provide greater sample density and information in that area of the deposit west of the Van Dyke shaft. Approval of the GFOP allows commencement of the surface mapping and sampling program on the Sombrero Butte project."

Van Dyke:

The weighted average acid soluble copper concentrations using a 0.05% ASCu cutoff for the drill holes in this news release are shown below. The historical analytical results for these drill holes are not available and therefore no comparison to historical results is possible.

DDH ID Azi Dip From (m) To (m) Interval (m) TCu (%) AS Cu (%)
OXY-41 0 -90 274.93 375.51 100.58 0.328 0.208
OXY-42 0 -90 266.09 336.19 70.10 0.400 0.306


TCu= total copper, (%) = percent, (m) = meters, ASCu = acid soluble copper, the above mineralized intervals may not represent true widths.

These two drill holes are located at the north end of the Van Dyke copper deposit; approximately 100m north of DDH VD14-01. The geological and structural data from these drill holes has been incorporated into the geological model and mineralized shapes for the updated resource estimate (see News Release dated July 17, 2019). The analytical data for four additional drill holes located between DDH VD14-01 and the Van Dyke shaft are expected over the next few weeks.

Sombrero Butte Program:

The mapping and sampling program are scheduled to commence in mid-September. The program will focus on the surface expression of the large chargeability/resistivity anomaly located in the south-central portion of the property looking for vein types, alteration and distribution of copper-molybdenite mineralization. Recent modelling of this chargeability/resistivity target indicated a dip to the west and a plunge to the northeast toward an area of hornfels; a contact metamorphic effect that occurs in country rock surrounding an intrusive body.

Analytical Procedures:

Sample preparation and analytical work was completed by Skyline Assayers & Laboratories located in Tucson, Arizona. Skyline's package codes CuT, CuSeq and CuCn were used to determine total copper, sequential copper and cyanide soluble copper. Sequential copper analysis uses a 0.25-gram sample digested (at room temperature) in 5% sulfuric acid and the solution is then diluted to 100 mL with deionized water. The residue from the sample is digested in 10% sodium cyanide solution and diluted to 100 mL. Atomic Absorption Spectrometry ("AAS") was used to determine copper concentrations. Skyline has an ISO/IEC 17025/2005 accreditation.

Quality Control:

A total of 13 blanks and certified reference standards were inserted (insertion rate 1:10) with the samples for which analyses are being reported. The Skyline results for the blank and standards were within +/-5% of accepted value for the blank and standards.

Elmer B. Stewart, MSc. P. Geol., President and CEO of Copper Fox, is the Company's non-independent, nominated Qualified Person pursuant to National Instrument 43-101, Standards for Disclosure for Mineral Projects, and has reviewed and approves the scientific and technical information disclosed in this news release.

Forward-looking information in this news release includes statements regarding: extension of the mineralization to the north; acid soluble copper concentrations; the mineralization is open at depth; the possibility of completing an updated resource estimate; updating the geological model and mineral shapes for the Van Dyke project and copper analysis on additional historical sample pulps and drill core intervals to be received.

In connection with the forward-looking information contained in this news release, Copper Fox and its subsidiaries have made numerous assumptions regarding, among other things: the geological advice that Copper Fox has received is reliable and is based upon practices and methodologies which are consistent with industry standards and the reliability of historical reports.
