May 1, 2024 (TSXV:INTR) (OTCQB:IMTCF)
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Intrepid Metals Corp. (TSXV:INTR) (OTCQB:IMTCF)
(“Intrepid” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce results from the first 12 diamond drill holes from
its initial drill program on the Company’s Corral Copper Property (“Corral Copper” or the “Property”) in
Cochise County, Arizona. The favourable results from the first 12 holes confirm the 3 -kilometer-long
trend of near surface carbonate replacement (“CRD”) and related supergene enrichment oxide copper-
gold-silver-zinc mineralization in the Holliday, Earp and Ringo zones, which falls within Intrepid’s private
property consisting of patented mining claims and additional surface rights . The planned 5,000m
diamond drill program is ongoing within the three main mineralized zones on the Property. Highlights
from the drill program to date are shown in Tables 1 through 3 below.
“The results from the first 12 drill holes returned long runs of robust CRD style mineralization punctuated
by highly attractive high-grade intervals of copper-gold-silver-zinc, which confirms our confidence in the
economic potential of the Property ,” stated Ken Brophy, Chief Executive Officer of the Company .
“Additional drilling will be completed at Corral Copper to further confirm historical copper-gold-silver-zinc
grade and continuity and to lay the foundation for future exploration drilling designed to expand the
Holliday, Earp and Ringo zones along strike and at depth and to identify a possible porphyry copper
source for this mineralization.”
“The results from the first holes of our initial drill program at Corral Copper reaffirms our belief in the full
potential of the Property,” says Mark Morabito, Founder and Chair of Intrepid. “We remain confident in
the remainder of this drill program and look forward to returning more results to the market in the weeks
ahead. In addition, we look forward to leveraging the data gained from the current program to propel
the project forward and continue to add shareholder value.”
Chris Osterman, geological advisor to the Company, commented "The quantity and tenor of gold in our
intersections sets Corral Copper apart from typical Arizona copper deposits. The economic geology of
Page 2 of 9
the Ringo Zone is significant because drilling has yielded tens of meters of massive and semi-massive
magnetite and hematite below the copper zones that open new possibilities on the origin of the deposit,
as well as providing opportunities to guide future geophysical work and drill targeting.”
The Corral Copper 2024 Drill Campaign
Intrepid has completed 1 8 diamond drill holes totaling approximately 3 ,300m as part of a planned
5,000m program within its private lands at Corral Copper. Intrepid is drill testing a 3.5 by 1.5 kilometer
(“km”) copper-gold-silver-zinc mineralized footprint to demonstrate its potential to host economic CRD,
skarn, and related porphyry copper mineralization.
Precious and base metal mineralization at Corral Copper is concentrated in structurally controlled
northeast dipping siliciclastic and carbonate sedimentary rocks including (oldest to youngest) Cambrian
Bolsa Quartzite, upper -Cambrian Abrigo Limestone, Devonian Martín limestone and Mississippian
Escabrosa limestone (Figure 1). The most intense mineralization occurs in the Abrigo Limestone (main
host) and Bolsa Quartzite , which are intruded locally by a series of Jurassic (and possibly younger)
mineralized intrusions including the Star Hill, Copper Bell and Sniveler porphyries, quartz latite sills, and
cross-cutting mineralized breccia bodies.
The Corral Copper Pro perty includes the Holliday, Earp and Ringo zones (northwest to southeast ;
Figure 1), which are related zones of discontinuously outcropping, locally high grade CRD and skarn
related mineralization and associated supergene enrichment mineralization that are interpreted to have
formed in the distal porphyry copper geological environment. Please refer to footnotes for details
regarding assumptions for metal equivalent calculations and true widths.
The Holliday Zone
The Holliday Zone has a near surface mineralized footprint that is defined by historical drilling, favorable
Abrigo Limestone (and Bolsa Formation), pre-mineral intrusions, alteration and copper-gold-silver-zinc
replacement style mineralization and skarns (and secondary enrichment zones) that are locally high -
grade (Figure 1; Tables 1 and 4). The Holliday Zone measures 860m (northwest to southeast) by 260m
(southwest to northeast) . To date, Intrepid has completed 7 holes in the Holiday Zone for a total of
1,148.59m. Highlight intercepts are included in Table 1 below and all results within Table 4.

Technical Information
All scientific and technical information in this news release has been prepared by, or approved by Daniel
MacNeil, PGeo. Mr. MacNeil is a Technical Advisor to the Company and is a qualified person for the
purposes of National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
Mr. MacNeil has verified the drilling data disclosed in this news release, including the assay and test
data underlying the information or opinions contained in this news release. Mr. MacNeil verified the data
disclosed (or underlying the information disclosed) in this news release by reviewing imported and
sorted assay data; checking the performance of blank samples and certified reference materials;
reviewing the variance in field duplicate results; and reviewing grade calculation formulas. Mr. MacNeil
detected no significant QA/QC issues during review of the data and is not aware of any sampling,
recovery or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the drilling data referred
to in this news release.
However, some of the data disclosed in this news release is related to historical drilling results which
have been identified as such . Intrepid Metals and Mr. MacNeil have not undertaken any independent
investigation of the sampling nor have they independently analyzed the results of the historical
exploration work in order to verify the results. Intrepid and Mr. MacNeil considers these historical drill
results relevant as the Company is using this data as a guide to plan exploration programs. The
Company's current and future exploration work includes verification of the historical data through drilling.
Quality Assurance and Quality Control
Drill core was first reviewed by a geologist, who identified and marked intervals for sampling. The
marked sample intervals were then cut in half with a diamond saw; half of the core was left in the core
Page 7 of 9
box and the other half was removed, placed in plastic bags, sealed and labeled. Intervals and unique
sample numbers are recorded on the drill logs and the samples are sequenced with standards and
blanks inserted according to a predefined QA/QC procedure. T he samples are maintained under
security on site until they are shipped to the analytical lab.
All core samples were sent to ALS Geochemistry (ALS), a division of ALS Global, in Tucson, Arizona,
for sample preparation, with pulps sent to the ALS Geochemistry laboratory in Reno, Nevada for
analysis. ALS meets all requirements of International Standa rds ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and ISO
9001:2015 for analytical procedures and is independent of the Company . HQ size core was split and
sampled over approximately two metre intervals. Samples were analyzed using: ALS’s Fire Assay
Fusion method (Au-AA23) with an AA finish for gold and by gravimetric finish (Au-GRA21) for samples
assaying greater than 10 ppm (g/t) gold; by a 36-element four acid digest ICP-AES analysis (ME-ICP61)
with additional analysis for Ore Grade Cu (Cu-OG62), Ore Grade Zn (Zn-OG62) and Ore Grade Pb (Pb-
OG62); and for silver assays above 100 ppm (g/t) by Fire Assay Fusion method with gravimetric finish
(Ag-GRA21). ME -ICP61 results were reported in parts per million (ppm), Ore Grade (OG62) results
were reported in percent (%). In addition to A LS quality assurance- quality control (QA/QC) protocols,
Intrepid implements an internal QA/QC program that includes the insertion of sample blanks, duplicates,
and standards, with QA QC control samples comprising approximately 10% of the sample stream.
About Corral Copper
The Corral Copper Property is a district scale advanced exploration and development opportunity in
Cochise County, Arizona. Corral Copper is located 15 miles east of the famous mining town of
Tombstone and 22 miles north of the historical Bisbee mining camp which has produced more than 8
billion pounds of copper. Production from the Bisbee mining camp, or within the district as disclosed in
the next paragraph, is not necessarily indicative of the mineral potential at Corral.
The district has a mining history dating back to the late 1800s, with several small mines extracting copper
from the area in the early 1900s, producing several thousand tons. Between 1950 and 2008, various
companies explored parts of the district, but the effort was uncoordinated, non-synergistic and focused
on discrete land positions and commodities due to the fragmented ownership. Intrepid has been able to
secure data from various sources which provides a solid foundation in creating geological interpretations
and identifying new target areas.
The Corral Copper Property is comprised of the Excelsior Property, the CCCI Properties, the Sara Claim
Group and the MAN Property. The Company has completed the acquisition of the Excelsior Property
and Sara Claim Group through purchase and sale agreements. The Company has the right to acquire
the corporate group that holds the CCCI Properties through an option agreement. The Company has
the right to acquire the MAN Property through an option agreement. See the “Commitments” section of
the Company’s most recently filed Management Discussion and Analysis for further details.
Intrepid is confident that by combining modern exploration techniques with historical data and with a
clear focus on responsible development, the Corral Copper Property can quickly become an advanced
exploration stage project and move towards development studies.
About Intrepid Metals Corp.
Intrepid Metals Corp. is a Canadian company focused on exploring for high-grade essential metals such
as copper, silver, lead, and zinc mineral projects in proximity to established mining jurisdictions in
southeastern Arizona, USA. The Company has acquired or has agreements to acquire several drill
ready projects, including the Corral Copper Project (a district scale advanced exploration and
development opportunity with significant shallow historical drill results), the Tombstone South Project
(within the historical Tombstone mining district with geological similarities to the Taylor Deposit, which
was purchased for $1.3B in 2018 , though mineralization at the Taylor Deposit is not necessarily
indicative of the mineral potential at the Tombstone South Project) both of which are located in Cochise
County, Arizona and the Mesa Well Project (located in the Laramide Copper Porphyry Belt in Arizona).

Notes
1 Composite intervals are calculated using length weighted averages based on a combination of lithological breaks and copper,
gold, silver and zinc assay values. All intervals reported are core lengths, and true thicknesses are yet to be determined.
Mineral resource modeling is required before true thicknesses can be estimated. Analyzed Grade corresponds composite
weighted (“composites”) averages of laboratory. M etal Equivalent corresponds to undiluted metal equivalent of reported
composites and Diluted Metal Equivalent takes into account dilution factors of 85% for Copper, and 80% for gold, silver and
zinc for reported composites. Metal prices used for the CuEq and AuEQ calculations are in USD based on Ag $2 2.00/oz, Au
$1900/oz, Cu $ 3.80/lb, Zn $1.1 5/lb The following equation was used to calculate copper equivalence: CuEq = Copper (%)
(85% rec.) + (Gold (g/t) x 0.71)(80% rec.) + (Silver (g/t) x 0.0077)(80% rec.) + (Zinc (%) x 0.28)(80% rec.). The following
equation was used to calculate gold equivalence: AuEq = Gold (g/t)(80% rec.) + (Copper (%) x 1.4085)(85% rec.) + (Silver (g/t)
x 0.0108)(80% rec.) + (Zinc (%) x 0.4188)(80% rec.). Analyzed metal equivalent calcu lations are reported for illustrative
purposes only. The metal chosen for reporting on an equivalent basis is the one that contributes the most dollar value after
accounting for assumed recoveries.
