Canadian Copper Provides Update on Murray Brook Asset and Exploration Plans

05.09.2023  |  Newsfile

Toronto, September 5, 2023 - Canadian Copper Inc. (CSE: CCI) ("Canadian Copper" or the "Company") is pleased to provide a corporate update regarding its Murray Brook acquisition integration status and 2023 exploration plans.

  • A new Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") for the Murray Brook deposit was commissioned in August with expected results in late September 2023.
  • A 12-hole program totaling 2,300 meters permit request was submitted to the New Brunswick Department of Natural Resources in August. This program is designed to test extensions of the Murray Brook deposit this year (Figure A).
  • A prospecting and trenching program will begin this fall at the Murray Brook West Project (Figure B).

Simon Quick, CEO of Canadian Copper. "We are feverishly working on integrating the Murray Brook asset acquisition. There are significant value accretion opportunities within the known resource in addition to various development scenarios given its proximity to a fully furnished milling and flotation facility. In parallel, we continue to strongly believe in the regions discovery potential which is a core pillar to our growth strategy. As a result, we will both explore the known limits of the Murray Brook deposit as-well as our exciting Murray Brook West property this year."

Murray Brook Mineral Resource Estimate and Exploration Program

The Company commissioned P&E Mining Consultants Inc. to calculate a new MRE for the Murray Brook deposit. There are two primary reasons for this effort:

  1. Several economic factors have improved since the previous MRE completed in 2013 that could increase the size of this large resource. Specifically, the previous MRE assumed US$/C$ exchange rate parity and lower metal recoveries for copper and lead.
  2. A total of 6,017 meters of drilling occurred between 2017 - 2019 which is currently not included.

The Company is targeting release of the new MRE in late September. The results of this model are also integral in planning our next exploration efforts at the project.

The objective of the Murray Brook exploration program is to test a new copper stringer zone starting from surface that was discovered in 2019 (MB19-01: 1.35% Cu, 19 g/t Ag, 0.18 g/t Au over 26.4 meters1). The Company expects to begin this program this year. Previous drilling results on this new zone can be found here.

Murray Brook West Exploration Plans

The Murray Brook West property is located directly adjacent to the Murry Brook deposit and encompasses the same geologic horizon as neighbouring Caribou and Restigouche deposits. Initial prospecting efforts will begin at Murray Brook West this year. Activities will include prospecting and trenching across the favorable Caribou Horizon shown in Figure B.

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.
