COPPER FOX ANNOUNCES Q3 2025 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL RESULTS
Calgary, Alberta – September 24, 2025 . Copper Fox Metals Inc. (“Copper Fox” or the “Company”)
(TSXV:CUU | OTCQX:CPFXF | FSE:HPU) is pleased to announce that its unaudited interim consolidated
July 31, 2025, financial statements have been filed on SEDAR+.
All the Company’s subsidiaries are wholly owned.
For the Quarter ended July 31, 2025, Copper Fox had a net loss of $906,699 (July 31, 2024 – $826,730)
which equated to $0.00 loss per share (July 31, 2024 - $0.00 loss per share).
During the Quarter ended July 31, 2025, the Company incurred $1,331,760 (excluding foreign exchange
effects) in expenditures toward furthering the development of its Schaft Creek and Van Dyke copper
projects as well as exploration of its Eaglehead, Sombrero Butte and Mineral Mountain copper
projects. The financial statements, notes , and related management discussion and analysis may be
obtained on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca, the Company’s website at www.copperfoxmetals.com or by
contacting the Company directly. All references to planned activities and technical information
contained in this news release have been previously announced by way of news releases . All amounts
are expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated.
Elmer B. Stewart, President and CEO of Copper Fox, stated, “During the Quarter, achievements
included completion of the Execution Plan for a prefeasibility study (PFS) at Van Dyke, completion of
the permitting process for a “maiden” diamond drilling program at Mineral Mountain, significantly
expanded the size of the exploration target at Eaglehead, and updated the exploration model for the
Sombrero Butte project. Our project portfolio positions Copper Fox to take advantage of the increased
demand for copper and molybdenum and provides exposure to increased precious metal prices based
on the significant concentrations of gold and silver outlined in the mineral resource estimates for the
Schaft Creek and Eaglehead projects. With completion of the Schaft Creek summer field program and
the planned drilling program at Mineral Mountain expected to get underway in October, the next
Quarter is shaping up to be exciting.”
The Van Dyke project offers the potential to become a near term scalable, ESG -aligned copper project
with significant upside at current long terms copper prices. The Execution Plan establishes the path
forward to advance the project to the PFS stage . Completion of a PFS provides clarity on the potential
feasibility of the Van Dyke project by providing additional technical certainty and an opportunity to
update the cash flow model for the Van dyke project based on current long term copper prices. A
decision to proceed to the PFS stage at Van Dyke is expected by the end of October.
At Eaglehead, the geophysical survey significantly expanded the exploration target along strike and
down dip. Merging of 2014 to 2025 geophysical databases form the basis for a Multi -Year Area-Based
(MYAB) exploration permit application and optimize future drilling programs directed at expanding the
projects mineral resource base.

At Mineral Mountain, Copper Fox is finalizing plans to drill test the large, open -ended porphyry target
in October. At Sombrero Butte, studies completed in 2025 have transitioned the project to the drill
ready stage and preparation of a Plan of Operations to conduct a diamond drilling program is planned
for Q4-2025.
At Schaft Creek, the 2024 geotechnical report augments the project database and supports the findings
of the 2023 geotechnical report. The geometallurgical testwork program has been amended with the
addition of Coarse Particle Flotation to determine the suitability of this technology for the project. The
2025 field program focused on the geotechnical investigation of two key infrastructure areas of the
project, diamond drilling south of the Liard zone and continuation of the environmental baseline,
archaeological, climate and hydrogeology studies. Results from the 2025 field program are pending
with the main objective of the program being focused on completing the activities required to
transition the project to the PFS stage.
