District Copper Announces Plans for Field Work on Copper Keg Property
District Copper Announces Plans for Field
Work on Copper Keg Property
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 5, 2022) - District Copper Corp. (TSXV: DCOP)
("District Copper", "District", or the "Company") is pleased to provide shareholders an update on
exploration plans for its Copper Keg porphyry copper project located approximately 55 kms west of
Kamloops British Columbia.
The property covers approximately 3,272 ha and is located at the north end
of the Guichon Creek batholith.
Highlights of the program are:
Highlights:
The IP and Airborne surveys combined with the 2021 surface mapping program have identified
two large target areas of porphyry style mineralization.
The results of the above studies indicate that these targets are hosted in Guichon intrusives and
Nicola Group volcanics.
One of the targets exhibits a strong spatial association with the Barnes
Creek fault, a regional scale structure that crosses the property.
Interpretation of the above survey results strongly indicate that the structural geology of the property
is significantly more complex than indicated on published regional scale maps.
A full Magnetic Vector Inversion of the airborne magnetic data is nearing completion and will be
used to assist in selection of areas for follow-up work.
A surface mapping program is planned to "ground truth" the results of the above studies prior to
selecting drilling targets.
Mr. Jevin Werbes President and Chief Executive officer of District Copper stated; "The exploration work
completed to date has identified two high priority targets exhibiting advanced argillic alteration and
sporadic primary and secondary copper mineralization. The results of our work located several circular
magnetic features underlying the property, the source of which should be explained prior to planning a
drilling program.
The objective of our next program is to locate and map the geology of the area overlying
these magnetic features to improve drilling efficiency and chance of success."
Mapping Program
The mapping program is planned to cover the two target areas to better understand the structural
geology of these areas and assess the potential of a buried porphyry system.
The mapping will focus on
lithology, alterations, and mineral associations.
These features are expected to provide indications of
location within the interpreted porphyry system.
The mapping program is expected to commence when
weather and ground conditions allow.

assurance that 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 mineralization may not represent sediment hosted intrusion related style gold
mineralization; 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.
