Kutcho Copper Restarts Baseline Studies

Vancouver, B.C., February 14, 2018. Kutcho Copper Corp. (TSXV: KC) (OTC: KCCFF) (“Kutcho

Copper” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the Company has re-initiated baseline studies at

the Kutcho Project, located 100 km east of Dease Lake, British Columbia. The planned baseline program

will continue with and confirm the environmental and socio-economic data that had been collected

previously by Capstone Mining Corp.

Vince Sorace, President and CEO, stated, “The key to successfully moving our project through feasibility,

environmental assessment, permitting and development is having robust baseline data and strong

relationships with First Nations. With this in mind, the Company is engaging technical consultants who

share Kutcho Copper’s values, commitments and goals.”

Data collected will include the physical, biophysical and human environments including: meteorology,

water quality/quantity, fish and aquatic biology, ecosystem and vegetation, wildlife, human health,

traditional knowledge, archaeology, land use and socio-economics.

Kutcho has also initiated engagement and consultation programs with First Nations, governments, and area

stakeholders to discuss value components, opportunities, issues and concerns to ensure that development

of the Kutcho Project will be undertaken in a responsible manner that considers all area interests.
