Appointment of Sue Craig as Vice President of Community & Environment
Vancouver, B.C., July 4, 2018. Kutcho Copper Corp. (TSXV: KC) (OTC: KCCFF) (“Kutcho Copper”
or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the appointment of Sue Craig as Vice President of Community
& Environment. Ms. Craig will be replacing Allison Rippin Armstrong who will be moving into an advisory
role for the company.
As a highly-respected professional geoscientist, Ms. Craig has worked in British Columbia and Yukon for
over 25 years on projects from the exploration and development stage to construction, production and mine
closure. Ms. Craig's experience includes work with publicly-listed mining companies, Territorial and
Federal Governments, First Nations and industry associations.
Ms. Craig successfully led the Environmental Assessment process for NovaGold's Galore Creek project in
2006 and played a key role in establishing the Participation Agreement with the Tahltan Nation. She was
co-recipient of the inaugural 2007 Robert R. Hedley Award, presented by the Association for Mineral
Exploration British Columbia (“AME”), for her “excellence in social and environmental responsibility” on
the Galore Creek project. From 2013 to 2016, Ms. Craig was the Director of Government and Community
Relations for Aurico Gold as the Kemess Underground Project entered the Environmental Assessment
Process. Ms. Craig first collaborated with a First Nation to implement a Socio-Economic Accord related to
a mining project in Yukon in 1995, one of the first of these types of agreements in Canada.
In 2016, Ms. Craig was recognized by AME for her “exceptional meritorious service to the Mineral
Exploration Community” with the Gold Pan Award. She has served as the Chair of AME Mineral
Exploration Roundup, as well as a Board Member of AME, and is currently a Director of Yukon Energy

recognizing her contributions toward environmental stewardship and sustainable development, and was the
recipient of the 2017 Canadian Women in Mining Trailblazer award.

to the Kutcho Copper team. She brings a wealth of experience with regards to permitting, community
relations and environment specific to British Columbia. We would like to thank Allison Rippin Armstrong
for her contributions to the company over the past year and her continued support in an advisory role.”
