CopperBank Plans Second Drill Rig at Pyramid Drilling Program
Vancouver, Canada - June 28, 2017 - CopperBank Resources Corp. (“CopperBank” or the “Company”)
(CSE:CBK) is pleased to announce that the Company aims to add a second diamond drill to the recently
announced 1,500 meter July and August drilling program. The additional rig will enable the company to
significantly increase the total meterage drilled this year and better define the geometry of the deposit.
As previously reported, the Company’s objective for the Summer 2017 program is to drill step-out holes
from the historical resource and to depth. Specifically, the program is designed to expand higher grade
mineralization in the Main, and North Zones. In the Main Zone, diamond drill hole PY11-16 returned 155
meters of 0.71% copper, 0.18 g/t gold and 0.018% molybdenum starting at 94 metres, and bottoming in
34 meters of 0.844% copper. The bottom 10 meters of this hole, where 1% copper was intersected, is not
in the historical resource model. There is not sufficient information available to determine the true width
of this mineralized zone, so the additional drilling in this area will assist the company in better understand-
ing the higher grade potential in the Main Zone. It is anticipated that drill holes REC-001, P-004 and P-007
will achieve a better understanding, and the depth of these holes will be determined as drilling occurs
with visual inspection, however, it is envisaged that they will be at least 300 meters in depth. View drill
maps on the company website and presentation located at www.copperbankcorp.com.
In the North Zone, the company will drill holes REC-002, P-005 and P-006 with the objective of further
delineating near surface mineralization (near REC-002) and lateral extensions of the North Zone (P-005
and P-006) view maps. While total depth of these holes is estimated to be approximately 300 meters,
visual inspection of the presence of copper mineralization will determine depth of drilling.
CopperBank Executive Chairman, Gianni Kovacevic, commented: “Having two drill rigs on site will enable
our team to have a dedicated machine to each of the Main and North Zones. Our plan is to finance enough
drilling to ensure the important holes in each zone are completed, then our team can assess results to
determine where future meters should be focused. Subject to results, we believe an updated and more
current mineral resource could be considered after this drilling season.”
In conjunction with adding the second drill rig, the company proposes raising a minimum of $500,000 at
0.12 per share. It is anticipated that this placement should close in the near future.
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, July 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 QP has not done sufficient work to
classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources. The Company is not treating the historical
estimate as current mineral resources.
