Fabled Copper Reports 0.90% Copper over 22.90 m and 2.09% copper over 6.10 m On the Ringarooma Copper Occurrence
VANCOUVER, January 18, 2023 - Fabled Copper Corp. ("Fabled Copper" or the "Company") (CSE:FABL)(FSE:XZ7) announces the results of 2022 surface field work on its Muskwa Copper Project. See Figure 1 below. Figure 1 - General Property Location
The Project is comprised of the Neil Property, the Toro Property and the Bronson Property all located in northern British Columbia. See Figure 2 below.
Figure 2 - Location Map
The Ringarooma occurrence is located due west of the Magnum mine deposit and is located on the Neil Property, see Figure 3 below
Figure 3 - Ringarooma Copper Occurrence Location
Peter Hawley, President, CEO reports; "The Ringarooma copper occurrence was visited by a 3-person field team consisting of 2 geologist and 1 geo technician on four occasions during the summer field season and on the last visited accompanied by myself and Louis Martin, technical director of the Company.
A total of 25 samples were collected, 1 grab and 24 chip samples. Of the 25 samples collected,9 assayed greater than 0.5% copper. See Table 1, Table 2 and Photo 1 below.

A grab sample of a section from the mineralized quartz vein with 20% chalcopyrite and trace of bornite reported 11.80% copper.
Contiguous chip sampling along the exposed northside of the Ringarooma creek resulted in a copper grade of 0.90% over 22.90 meters. Within this interval higher grade sections returned;
- 2.40% copper over 3.0 meters
- 4.48% copper over 1.55 meters
- 4.44% copper over 0.80 meters and
- 2.35% copper over 3.90 meters, See Tables below, Photos 2,3.

Detailed examination of the types of copper mineralization and their related emplacement into the shear fabric plus numerous structural measurements we observed and noted, See Photos 6,7 below

Photo 7
The Ringarooma structural kinematics appears to show that the mineralization is controlled by a sinistral trans-tensional shear zone with interior trending structures potentially acting as zones of dilatancy and copper precipitation as seen in micro scale on the Ringarooma and micro and macro on the Bronson property. See Photos 8, Figure 4 below.

As per protocol, all sample locations were taken with GPS along with GPS enabled field cameras of photos of the sampled units. The photos, sample locations and all assay data pertaining to the assay taken, (36 elements were assayed) were tagged in a geo tag format for plotting in .kml / .kmz GIS systems such as Google Earth.
An additional releases on the 2022 exploration program of the Muskwa area will be forth coming in the following weeks.
QA QC Procedure
Analytical results of sampling reported by Fabled Copper Corp. represent rock samples submitted by Fabled Copper Corp. staff directly to ALS Chemex, Vancouver, British Columbia Canada. Samples were crushed, split, and pulverized as per ALS Chemex method PREP-31, then analyzed for ME-ICP61 33 element package by four acid digestion with ICP-AES Finish. ME-GRA21 method for Au and Ag by fire assay and gravimetric finish, 30g nominal sample weight.
Over Limit Methods
For samples triggering precious metal over-limit thresholds of 10 g/t Au or 100 g/t Ag, the following is being used:
Au-GRA21 Au by fire assay and gravimetric finish with 30 g sample.
Ag-GRA21 Ag by fire assay and gravimetric finish.
Fabled Copper Corp. monitors QA/QC using commercially sourced standards and locally sourced blank materials inserted within the sample sequence at regular intervals.
