Thursday, May 10, 2012 Copper Fox Announces 2012 Exploration Program And Acquires Additional Mineral Tenures Around Schaft Creek Property
Vancouver, British Columbia -- May 10, 2012 -- Mr. Elmer Stewart, President and CEO of Copper Fox Metals Inc. ("Copper Fox" or the "Company") (TSX-V: CUU) announced the Company's 2012 exploration plan for the Schaft Creek project, the acquisition of additional mineral tenures contiguous to the Schaft Creek project, and the completion of an option to acquire the Jay/Scotch mineral tenures contiguous to Schaft Creek. Mr. Stewart stated "Since discovery of the Schaft Creek deposit in 1957, approximately less than 10% of the project area has been explored. The work Copper Fox completed in 2010 and 2011 suggests a potential to locate additional porphyry style deposits along strike of the Schaft Creek deposit. The 2012 exploration program will focus on the regional evaluation and exploration of the project outside the limits of the Schaft Creek deposit and is expected to cost approximately $10.0 million". 2012 Exploration Program Highlights:
- A Total Field airborne magnetic survey (approximately 2,500 line kms) to extend the limits of the 2011 survey to the north and south and a spectral imagery survey,
- Titan-24 DCIP & MT surveys are planned to survey the area between the ES zone and the GK zone to follow-up the positive results obtained in 2011,
- Diamond drilling of three (Mike, ES and GK zones) untested Titan-24 chargeability anomalies outlined in 2011,
- Diamond drilling to follow-up the copper-gold-molybdenum-silver mineralization intersected in diamond drill hole 2011CF422 (the Discovery zone) located approximately 1,200m north of the Schaft Creek deposit, and
- Diamond drilling will be conducted in two phases, phase one consists of 5,000m of drilling to test the targets outlined in item d) above. Phase two will consist of at least 5,000m to follow-up zones of mineralization intersected during phase one drilling.
Rationale for the Mineral Tenure Acquisitions:To view the location of the interpreted Schaft Creek Mineral Trend, visit the Copper Fox website at www.copperfoxmetals.com. Details of the transactions are provided below and the Purchase Agreement will be filed on SEDAR. Marko/Mott Acquisition:The acquired mineral tenures (consisting of 16 mineral tenures totaling 4,514.78 hectares) were purchased from Randy Marko and Paul Mott ("Marko/Mott") and are contiguous to the Company's Schaft Creek project. Consideration paid by Copper Fox was $25,000 cash and a 2% net smelter return (NSR) royalty on the mineral claims subject to a "Partial NSR Buyout Option". The Partial NSR Buyout Option allows Copper Fox at any time to repurchase half of the NSR for a cash payment of $1.0 million such that the NSR is reduced from 2% to 1%. Jay/Scotch Option:Copper Fox has acquired an option to purchase two separate mineral tenures and a contiguous group of five mineral tenures located south and west of the Schaft Creek project. The group of five mineral tenures is referred to as the Jay/Scotch group and has had a considerable amount of historical exploration (prospecting, sampling, trenching and chip sampling) completed. The copper mineralization is reported to occur as disseminations and veinlets in potassic altered quartz monzonite, syenite, quartz stockwork, tourmaline stockwork, carbonate veining and amphibolite (possibly mafic dikes). Copper grades reported from the sampling of trenches, outcrop, veinlets, veins and amphibolite range from less than 0.01% to 10%, gold values range from less than 0.01 g/t to 2.7 g/t and silver values range from less than 0.5 g/t to 24.1 g/t. Recent sampling by the vendor (four samples-not described) of the Scotch claims shows molybdenum values that range from 0.017% to 0.038%. The historical samples were not assayed for molybdenum. The alteration, copper-gold-silver metal signature, host rocks and tourmaline stockwork show many similarities to the southern portion of the Paramount zone in the Schaft Creek deposit. A cash payment of $25,000 was made to the vendor to hold the mineral tenures until such time as a property visit can be completed to assess and confirm the historical analytical results. Elmer B. Stewart, MSc. P. Geol., President of Copper Fox, is the Company's nominated Qualified Person pursuant to National Instrument 43-101, Standards for Disclosure for Mineral Projects, has reviewed the technical information disclosed in this news release. About Copper FoxCopper Fox is a Canadian-based resource development company listed on the TSX-Venture Exchange (TSX-V:CUU) with a corporate office in Calgary and an operations office in Vancouver and is involved in the exploration and development of the Schaft Creek copper-molybdenum-gold-silver deposit located in northwest British Columbia, Canada. The Company is working on completing a feasibility study on the Schaft Creek Mineral Deposit, one of the largest undeveloped copper, gold, molybdenum and silver deposits in North America. The feasibility study is being led by Tetra Tech Wardrop on a minimum 120,000 tpd open pit mine and is expected to be completed mid-late summer, 2012. Copper Fox holds title and a 100% working interest in the Schaft Creek project consisting of 44,022.46 hectares (108,782 acres). Included in this total are the "Schedule A" mineral tenures 8,334.34 hectares (20,594 acres) originally conveyed to Copper Fox pursuant to the 2002 Option Agreement. The "Schedule A" mineral tenures are subject to a 3.5% Net Profits Interest held by Royal Gold, Inc., a 30% carried Net Proceeds Interest held by Liard Copper Mines Limited ("Liard") and an earn back option held by Teck Resources Limited ("Teck"). On completion of the feasibility study, Copper Fox will earn Teck's 78% interest in Liard. Teck's earn back option to acquire either, 20%, 40% or 75%, of Copper Fox's interest in the Schaft Creek property is triggered upon delivery of a positive feasibility study to Teck. Should Teck elect to exercise its option for 75%, they are required to fund subsequent property expenditures up to a total of 400% of those incurred by Copper Fox ($75.9 million to January 31, 2012) and arrange for project financing, including the Copper Fox portion. For full details of the Teck earn back option please refer to the Company's website www.copperfoxmetals.com. The remainder of the mineral tenures totaling 35,688.11 hectares (88,187 acres) has been obtained by Copper Fox through mineral tenure acquisitions and mineral tenure purchase agreements. Some of these mineral tenures are subject to inclusion within the Schaft Creek project under the terms of the Area of Interest provisions of the Option Agreement.
