FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 14, 2017

(CBK 2017 – NR #14)

CopperBank Expands Drilling at Pyramid

Vancouver, Canada - August 14, 2017 - CopperBank Resources Corp. (“CopperBank” or the “Company”)

(CSE:CBK) is pleased to announce that its technical team has completed a site visit to its 100% controlled

Pyramid project. There are currently two diamond core drill rigs at the project completing the previously

announced phase one Summer 2017 drilling program. After the site visit, it was determined that drilling

should be expanded to include phase two proposed drill hole locations to assist in providing additional

information. Subject to drilling results, the Company plans to update the historical maiden inferred min-

eral resource estimate from 2013. Consultants from SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. (“SRK”), authors of the

historical resource estimate, were also part of the recent site visit.

To facilitate the additional phase two drilling program, the Company announces a private placement fi-

nancing of up to CDN $750,000 at 0.15 per share. Each common share will come with a full five year

warrant exercisable at 0.25 per share. If the common shares of the Company trade at 0.40 per share for

twenty consecutive trading days, the Company can accelerate the conversion of these warrants.

Gianni Kovacevic, CopperBank Executive Chairman, comments, “The team’s site visit was very informa-

tive. There were a number of professional geoscientists and engineers present to carefully consider the

historical drilling results, the effectiveness of the current phase one drill program, and the rationale to

expand and continue drilling.”

The private placement is subject to the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange and the securities

will be subject to a four month and one day hold period under securities laws.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the private placement for the above-mentioned drill-

ing program and for general working capital and corporate purposes.

About Pyramid.

The Pyramid deposit is a copper-molybdenum-gold exploration project where CopperBank has an option

to earn a 100% interest. The project is located on private property with the subsurface controlled by The

Aleut Corporation, an Alaska Native-owned corporation. Applying a 0.4% copper cut-off, Pyramid has an

historic (SRK, June 2013) NI 43-101 resource estimate with inferred mineral resources of 122 million

tonnes at 0.41% copper, 0.02% molybdenum, and 0.10 g/t gold. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient

work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources. The Company is not treating the his-

torical estimate as current mineral resources.

by this cautionary statement. Forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect

management of CopperBank’s expectations or beliefs regarding future events. In certain cases, forward-looking state-

ments can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, or “believes”, or variations of such words and phrases or

CopperBank to enter into transactions that will ultimately enhance shareholder value, and potential future work or ac-

tivities in respect of the Pyramid project or the Contact project. Although CopperBank believes that the expectations

reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, forward-looking statements have been based on factors

and assumptions concerning future events which may prove to be inaccurate. Those factors and assumptions are

based upon currently available information available to CopperBank. Forward-looking statements are based, in part,

on assumptions and factors that may change or prove to be incorrect, thus causing actual results, performance or

achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by forward-looking information. Such factors

and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to identify and complete one or more transactions

involving the Company’s portfolio assets that enhance shareholder value as part of management’s ongoing review of

strategic alternatives in the current market conditions. By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve known

and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements

to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by forward-looking

statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the risk that the Company will not be able to identify and

complete one or more transactions involving the Company’s portfolio assets that enhance shareholder value as part of

management’s ongoing review of strategic alternatives in the current market conditions. Although CopperBank has

attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from forward-

looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated

or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results

and future events could differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, read-

ers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. For more information on CopperBank and the risks
