DISTRICT COPPER ADDS MORE CLAIMS TO COPPER KEG PROJECT IN BRITISH
COLUMBIA
Vancouver, B.C. June 12, 2024 – District Copper Corp. (“District Copper”, “District”, or the “Company”)
(TSX‐Venture: DCOP) is pleased to report that it has added 3 new claims its highly prospective the Copper
Keg project. The Copper Keg porphyry copper project is located approximately 55 kms west of Kamloops
British Columbia. The property now covers approximately 6,628 ha, an increase of over 20% to the land
holdings. The property is located at the north end of the Guichon Creek batholith which hosts Teck’s
Highland Valley Copper operations.
Two of the new claims cover extensions of the Guichon Creek Batholith across the Thompson River where
multiple historic soil geochemistry anomalies occur. The third claim lies in the centre of the property.
The company is currently developing an exploration program for the upcoming field season.
Jevin Werbes, President and CEO of District Copper commented, “We are pleased to have added
these additional claims to the Copper Keg as these now give District Copper complete control over the
porphyry target and the associated anomalies.”
Acquisition Terms

1,500,000 shares upon TSX‐V approval
2% NSR with 50% purchasable for $1,000,000
About the Copper Keg property
Historical exploration spans from the late 1800’s to 2012. The early stage exploration is reported
to consist of mining high grade copper veins.
The property exhibits the geochemical/alteration/lithologic features typical of the argillic altered
potion of a porphyry copper system at/along the potassic/propylitic contact. The property is
characterized by a large, pyrite bearing, argillic zone exposed along the surface trace of the
Barnes Creek fault, a major NNW trending that crosses the Guichon Creek Batholith. The high ‐
2
grade copper veins noted above, reflect supergene enrichment of distal base metal veins typically
associated with a porphyry copper system.
Mapping has described pale grey ‐green (possibly phyllic alteration) outcrops of Guichon intrusive
and late ‐stage Quartz Feldspar and Quartz Feldspar Hornblende dikes indicating multi ‐phase
intrusive activity. The hydrothermal alteration is post Guichon intrusive and pre ‐dates the late ‐
stage intrusive dikes.
The erratic and wide range of copper values (0.025 to 0.76%), in the gossanous (after pyrite),
argillic altered zone, exhibit characteristics typical of a leach cap to a porphyry system.
The project is underlain by an intrusive phase of the Guichon Creek batholith intruded the
surrounding Nicola Group rocks.
Petrographic work and K/Al: Na/Al ratios indicate an alteration package ranging from argillic ‐
phyllic ‐ potassic (all alteration phases associated with porphyry copper systems) supported by
alteration minerals indicative of the inner actinolite subzone of a porphyry system as well as
secondary biotite (Potassic alteration) and sericite (phyllic alteration), quartz veinlets with pyrite
and chalcopyrite.
A large pyritic zone exhibits spatial association with the argillic altered zone and could be
representative of what is commonly referred to in porphyry copper terms as the “pyrite shell”.
Chalcopyrite, bornite and malachite (secondary copper carbonate) have been observed in outcrop
and support the presence of a porphyry system.
Two highly altered gossans have been identified along the interpreted trace of the Barnes Creek
fault, a major structure within the Guichon Creek batholith. The first area (800m long by 200m
wide); the second area is 600 m south and smaller in extent. These gossans exhibit erratic copper
concentrations, weak copper ‐silver soil anomalies and copper mineralogy typical of a leach cap.
Since the Company acquired the property in 2021, it has completed mapping and prospecting, soil
sampling, and ground and airborne geophysical programs. Results from this work are consistent
with the presence of a leach cap to a porphyry system.

such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from
those anticipated in such statements.
In connection with the forward‐looking information contained in this news release, District Copper has
made numerous assumptions regarding, among other things: the geological advice that District Copper
has received is reliable and is based upon practices and methodologies which are consistent with
industry standards and the reliability of historical reports. While District Copper considers these
assumptions to be reasonable, these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and
contingencies.
Additionally, there are known and unknown risk factors which could cause District Copper’s actual results,
performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or
achievements expressed or implied by the forward‐looking information contained herein. Known risk
factors include, among others: the dimensions and shape of the mineralized areas may not be as
estimated; the targets outlined by the MVI study may not be associated with felsic intrusives porphyry
style alteration or mineralization; the proposed surface program may eliminate these areas as potential
targets for future exploration; the NNW trending structures may not contain indications of magnetite
destruction typical of hydrothermal alteration; uncertainties relating to interpretation of the outcrop
sampling results; the geology, continuity, and concentration of the mineralization; the financial markets
and the overall economy may deteriorate; the need to obtain additional financing and uncertainty of
meeting anticipated program milestones; and uncertainty as to timely availability of permits and other
governmental approvals.
