Copper Fox Announces Additional Analytical Results FOR Van Dyke Project
COPPER FOX ANNOUNCES ADDITIONAL ANALYTICAL RESULTS FOR
VAN DYKE PROJECT
Calgary, Alberta– September 19, 2019. Copper Fox Metals Inc. (“Copper Fox” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:
CUU – OTC-Pink: CPFXF) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Desert Fox Copper Inc. (“Desert Fox”) are pleased
to provide shareholders analytical results for the last four drill holes and a brief summary of the 2019 analytical
program from the Van Dyke In-Situ Leach (“ISL”) oxide copper project. The 2019 analytical program was
completed to support an updated resource estimate for the Van Dyke deposit.
Highlights:
DDH-OXY-48 returned an average of 0.278% acid soluble copper (“ASCu”) over a 117.05m core
interval including a 9.44m core interval grading 1.074% ASCu.
DDH-OXY-45A returned an average of 0.318% ASCu over a 71.02 m core interval including a 5.33m
core interval grading 1.185% ASCu.
The four drill holes reported in this news release confirm the presence of significant ASCu concentrations
over substantial mineralized intervals between the Van Dyke shaft and DDH-VD14-01 (drilled in 2014).
The 2019 program has extended the mineralization in the Van Dyke deposit to approximately 1,500m in
an east-west direction and up to approximately 900m in a north-south direction.
Elmer B. Stewart, President and CEO of Copper Fox, stated, “ The 2019 analytical program included 3,252 pulp
and core samples and has defined the limits of the mineralized intervals in 37 historical drill holes from the Van
Dyke deposit. The program consistently returned significantly higher concentrations of acid soluble copper ; has
defined the limits of the chalcocite blanket and extended (in most cases) the thickness of the mineralized intervals
compared to historical data. The results of the program indicate that the mineralization is open to the west and
southwest which suggests the potential to increase the size and total copper content of the Van Dyke deposit.”
The weighted average ASCu concentrations using a 0.05% ASCu cutoff for the four drill holes reported in this news
release are shown below. Because the historical analytical data for these drill holes is not available, a comparison
of the weighted average grades for the historical and 2019 analytical results is not possible.

TCu= total copper, (%) = percent, (m) = meters, ASCu = acid soluble copper, the above mineralized intervals do not represent true widths.
The Van Dyke deposit:
The Van Dyke deposit is interpreted to represent the weathered portion of a porphyry copper deposit. The
mineralized envelope has been extended to approximately 1,500m in an east -west direction and 900m in a north -
2
south direction and remains open to the west and southwest . The deposit displays two well-defined Supergene
copper mineral assemblages consisting of a malachite-chrysocolla-azurite zone overlying a chalcocite zone. The
Supergene copper mineralization overlies Hypogene (sulphide copper-molybdenum) mineralization. The copper
mineralization is hosted in Pinal Schist and intrusive phases of the Schultz Granite.
The weighted average grades for the mineralized intervals were estimated using a 0.05% ASCu cutoff; in line with
the cutoff grade used in the maiden resource estimate for the Van Dyke project completed in 2014. Cumulative
missing core intervals from within the reported mineralized interva ls in this news release are, OXY-44, 4.27m,
OXY-45A, 14.69m, OXY-47A, 15.54m and OX Y -48, 19.81m. The missing core intervals were included in the
weighted average for the mineralized interval at zero grade. Where analytical results were available, a maximum
interval of less than 10 meters grading less than 0.05% ASCu within the mineralized interval was tolerated w hen
estimating the weighted average.
Analytical Procedures:
Sample preparation and analytical work was completed by Skyline Assayers & Laboratories located in Tucson,
Arizona. Skyline’s package codes CuT, CuSeq and CuCn were used to determine total copper, sequential copper
and cyanide soluble copper. Sequential copper analysis uses a 0.25-gram sample digested (at room temperature) in
5% sulfuric acid and the solution is then diluted to 100 mL with deionized water. The residue from the sample is
digested in 10% sodium cyanide solution and diluted to 100 mL. Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (“AAS”) was
used to determine copper concentrations. Skyline has an ISO/IEC 17025/2005 accreditation.
Quality Control:
A total of 2 blanks and 9 certified reference standards were inserted (insertion rate 1:10) with the samples for which
analyses are being reported. The Skyline results for the blanks and standards were within +/-5% of accepted value
for the blanks and standards.
