Highlights:

Schaft Creek Project

The Schaft Creek Joint Venture approved a 2014 program consisting of a comprehensive series of studies to review all aspects (including metallurgical, pit slope design, geological modelling and environmental) of the Schaft Creek project. The 2014 field mapping and core re-logging program to collect additional structural information for pit slope design purposes and to update the geological model for the Schaft Creek deposit was completed by the end of August. The incorporation of this information into the Schaft Creek data base is in progress. Environmental monitoring studies will also continue through 2014. The 2014 Schaft Creek program is estimated to cost approximately $2.5 million.

Van Dyke Copper Project

The objective of the 2014 program for the Van Dyke oxide copper deposit is to complete a Preliminary Economic Assessment ('PEA') before the end of 2014. To complete the PEA; verification drilling; metallurgical test work, environmental baseline and surface water hydrology studies, fluid mechanics, geochemical characterization of the lithologies surrounding the deposit and scoping level engineering studies are required.

During the quarter, the six hole (3,211.7m) Diamond drilling program on the Van Dyke oxide copper deposit was completed. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the analytical results for the six holes were received and all holes intersected broad intervals of copper mineralization. Analytical results (using a 0.05% copper cut-off) for total copper and soluble copper content of the six holes are listed below. The cut-off grade used is in line with the cut-off grade used on other similar advanced oxide copper deposits in Arizona.

Note: The core intervals listed in the above tables do not represent true widths.

During the quarter, MMTS, Knight Piesold Ltd., Greenwood Environmental Inc., SGS Metcon/KD Engineering and Southwest Exploration Services, LLC (downhole geophysical surveys) worked on compiling the data collected on the Van Dyke oxide copper deposit during the recent drilling program.

Carmax Mining Corp.

On May 29, 2014 the Company closed a Subscription Agreement with Carmax whereby Northern Fox acquired via a non-brokered private placement, 20,000,000 units of Carmax for an aggregate subscription price of $1,000,000. Units were subscribed for a price of $0.05 per Unit and consist of one previously unissued common share of Carmax and one common share purchase warrant ("Warrant"). Northern Fox holds approximately 42.09% of the outstanding shares of Carmax. Each Warrant is exercisable until May 29, 2016 and entitles Northern Fox, on exercise, to purchase one additional common share of Carmax at a price of $0.075 per share (see News Release dated May 29, 2014).

During the Quarter, Carmax completed both ground and airborne geophysical surveys and commenced a Diamond drilling program. Results of the ground geophysical survey are positive and outlined the following:

• The Quantec Titan 24 survey outlined a large chargeability anomaly consisting of two distinct chargeability signatures over a 5,600m long horizontal distance,
• The first signature ranges from 500m to 1,000m wide, is open at depth below the -550m level and covers four of the six zones of mineralization identified to date. This chargeability signature is open to the northwest towards the West zone,
• The copper mineralization reported in the historical (where sampled) and current drill holes in the Pass, Camp, Bornite and East zones of mineralization (horizontal distance of 3,000m) shows a good correlation to the >10 mRad chargeability signature, and
• The second signature occurs on Line-9 and Line-10 (horizontal distance 1,100m) is a distinct >10 mRads chargeability signature that is approximately 1,000m wide and is open at depth below the -550m level. This chargeability signature has not been drill tested and is open to the southeast towards the Far East zone.

The recent Quantec Titan-24 survey results combined with the historical and current drilling results suggest continuity of the copper-molybdenum-gold mineralization between the mineralized zones outlined to date on the property suggesting a single porphyry system. The objective of the 2014 Diamond drilling program is to test the continuity of the mineralization between the known zones of mineralization.

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, Northern Fox exercised its top up rights pursuant to the Subscription Agreement and subscribed for an additional 3,386,078 Units at a price of $0.07. Each Unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. The share purchase warrant allows the holder to purchase an additional common share in the equity of Carmax at a price of $0.09 for a period of two years from the date of the closing the top up subscription.

Sombrero Butte Project

During the quarter, no work was completed on this project. This project has a common boundary with Red Hawk Resources that holds the Copper Creek copper deposit located approximately 3 kilometres from the Sombrero Butte project. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, Red Hawk Resources announced a binding letter agreement with Anglo American with respect to a joint venture on its Copper Creek project whereby Anglo American would spend US $44 million over a five year period to earn a 60% interest and have the right to earn an additional 20% interest in the Copper Creek project by spending an additional US $20 million on or before the seventh anniversary date of the effective date of the joint venture.

While this proposed arrangement has no direct effect on Copper Fox it does have an indirect effect in that it demonstrates that large producing copper companies considers this area to have potential to host commercial copper deposits.

Selected Financial Results

All of the Company's material subsidiaries are wholly owned except for Carmax Mining Corp. ("Carmax") (TSX VENTURE:CVM), of which the Company owns 42.09% of the outstanding common shares. The consolidated financial statements include 100% of the assets and liabilities related to Carmax and include a non-controlling interest representing 57.91% of Carmax's assets and liabilities not owned by the Company

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At July 31, 2014, the Company had working capital of $7,443,990 and a deficit of $17,689,100 and had a comprehensive loss of $1,950,008 for the nine months ended July 31, 2014.
