Kapuskasing Samples up to 9.03% Cu at The Lady Pond Copper\Cobalt
Property in Newfoundland and Prepares for Drill Program
October 13, 2017 – Kapuskasing Gold Corp. (TSX-V: KAP) (the “Company” or “KAP”) announces that it
has received permits for drilling on its 100 % owned Lady Pond Property, located adjacent to the town of
Springdale, Newfoundland. This phase I drill program will consist of approximately 1000 metres of drilling
(NQ sized core) and is expected to take three weeks to complete. Drilling will be conducted to confirm
historical copper mineralization on the property, as well as to begin the process of creating a NI 43 -101
compliant resource for the three known mineralized areas.
Site visits have been made to the property in recent weeks, and three historic mineralized areas were visited.
Several drill holes have been spotted and trails flagged in for the program to commence imminently. Visits
were made to the Lady Pond Pro spect, as well as the Twin Pond and Sterling Prospects. Several grab
samples from the prospects were collected, and assay results included:
Sterling Prospect
Sample 305 returned 2.75% Cu and Sample 306 returned 7.19% Cu;
Twin Pond Prospect
Sample 301 returned 9.03% Cu;
Lady Pond Prospect
Sample 303 returned 0.089% Co, 1.54% Cu and 9.4 g/t Ag.
The Lady Pond Property consists of 98 claims totaling 2450 hectares in size and covers a number of historic
shafts, mine workings and areas of economic historical drilling. The Property lies immediately adjacent to
the town of Springdale and can be accessed via numerous logging roads and ATV trails throughout the
property. Rambler Mining and Metals PLC operate a base metal mill at Baie Verte and currently own the
historic Little Deer and Whalesback copper deposits (approximately 7 million tonnes of 2.25% Cu). Both
of these projects are situated on contiguous claims to the west of the Lady Pond Property.
The geology underlying the Lady Pond Property consists entirely of the Lush Bight group of rocks, which
is the same lithology which hosts the nearby Little Deer and Whalesback copper deposits. The Lady Pond
Property is host to several historic copper occ urrences (Cyprus Type VMS deposits), the most notable of
which include the Sterling Mine, the Twin Pond prospect and the Lady Pond Mine, all of which have
exploration histories dating back to the late 1800’s. The Sterling Mine hosts a NI 43 -101 non-compliant,
historic resource of approximately 1,000,000 tonnes of 1% copper, and is open in all directions. This non-
compliant resource was calculated from drilling and evaluations performed during the late 1960’s. The
Sterling Mine is situated approximately 1 .5 km to the southwest of the Twin Pond Prospect where an
additional 32 holes has been drilled but no calculation of any kind has been made. The Lady Pond Mine is
located approximately 3 km’s to the northeast of Twin Pond.

The Company is treating the tonnage and grade estimates above as historical estimates. The historical
estimates do not use categories that conform to current CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources
and Mineral Reserves as outlined in National Instrum ent 43 -101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral
Projects (“NI 43-101“) and have not been redefined to conform to current CIM Definition Standards. A
qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as current mineral resources
and the Company is not treating the historical estimates as current mineral resources. More work, including,
but not limited to, drilling, will be required to confirm the estimates to current CIM Definition Standards.
Investors are cautioned that the historical estimates do not mean or imply that economic deposits exist on
the Property. Other than as provided for in this press release, the Company has not undertaken any
independent investigation of the historical estimates or other information contained in this press release nor
has it independently analyzed the results of the previous exploration work in order to verify the accuracy
of the information. The Company believes that the historical estimates and other information contained in
this press rele ase are relevant to continuing exploration on the Property because they identify significant
mineralization that will be the target of the Company’s exploration programs.
There are over 50 historic drill holes on the Lady Pond Property, the most notable intersections include:
Sterling Prospect
4.42m – 5.50% Cu from 38.10 to 42.52m
6.10m – 2.32% Cu from 106.68 to 112.78m
4.57m – 1.45% Cu from 50.29 to 54.86m
Twin Pond Prospect
3.35m – 4.20% Cu from 82.30 to 85.65m
3.05m – 2.16% Cu from 33.53 to 36.58m
3.05m – 3.20% Cu from 70.14 to 72.54m
Lady Pond Prospect
8.10m – 2.61% Cu
