Canadian Copper Executes Definitive Purchase Agreement for Murray Brook Project

02.08.2023  |  Newsfile

Toronto, August 2, 2023 - Canadian Copper Inc. (CSE: CCI) ("Canadian Copper" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that on August 1st, 2023, pursuant to the terms of a Letter of Intent ("LOI") it entered into with Votorantim Metals Canada Inc., an arm's length seller ("VM Canada" or the "Seller"), has successfully executed the definitive purchase agreement ("Purchase Agreement") to acquire VM Canada's entire 72% interest in the Murray Brook Joint Venture. Murray Brook is located in the Bathurst Camp of New Brunswick, Canada.

Simon Quick, CEO of Canadian Copper. "The signing of the definitive purchase agreement is terrific news for Canadian Copper and culminates a good faith multi-party negotiation since 2022. The Murray Brook resource contains 183 million pounds of copper, 1.07 billion pounds of zinc, 390 million pounds of lead, 42 million ounces of silver, and 339,000 ounces of gold and is in a tier 1 jurisdiction conducive to mine development1. This large 18 million tonne deposit is strategically situated within 10 km (Figure A) of a well-maintained concentrator facility and sits between two previous mining operations. We believe the Bathurst Camp area remains highly prospective for much-needed new critical mineral discoveries while presenting continued regional asset consolidation opportunities."

Cautionary Note Regarding Mineral Resource Estimates and Historical Estimates

Until mineral deposits are actually mined and processed, Mineral Resources must be considered as estimates only. Mineral Resource Estimates that are not Mineral Reserves have not demonstrated economic viability. Canadian Copper is not treating the "historical resources estimate" as a "current resources estimate" or "mineral reserves", as it has not taken steps to identify what work needs to be done to verify, upgrade or re-classify the "historical resources estimate" using a qualified person.
