Alpha Copper Announces Results of Airborne Geophysical Survey at the Indata Project and Private Placement
Alpha Copper Announces Results of Airborne Geophysical Survey
at the Indata Project and Private Placement
VANCOUVER, BC, August 4, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Alpha Copper Corp. (CSE: ALCU)
(OTC: ALCUF) (FWB: PP0) (“Alpha,” “Alpha Copper,” or the “Company”) a resource sector enterprise
founded to create value through mineral exploration, technical development, and asset acquisition, and
Eastfield Resources Ltd. (“Eastfield”) (TSX-V: ETF) are pleased to report results of the high resolution
airborne magnetic gradient, radiometric, and VLF-EM survey at the Indata project located in central British
Columbia.
The Indata project encompasses 3,189 hectares (7,880 acres) and is located 230 kilometers northwest of the
City of Prince George and immediately south of the Stardust-Kwanika Project, owned by Northwest Copper
Corp.
Highlights:
The new magnetic and radiometric dataset is a great improvement over historical datasets and will
be interpreted to generate new drill targets.
The magnetic survey shows high-resolution details of a magnetic anomaly associated with copper
mineralization in the Lake Zone where previous results include IN22-82 with 173.6 meters grading
0.23% copper starting at 2.9 meters including 28.9 meters grading 0.47% copper starting at 2.9
meters. It constitutes the northern boundary of the Lake Zone which remains open beyond this
point.
A new zone of molybdenum mineralization was unexpectedly discovered 5 kilometers to the south
of the Lake Zone in what is now called “Area 74” where hole IN22-74 intersected 30.8 meters
grading 0.10% molybdenum (0.16 MoS2 eq.) starting at 113.7 meters and continuing to the bottom
of the hole including 7.5 meters grading 0.32% molybdenum (0.51% MoS2 eq.).
The magnetic survey shows linear features associated with both the Polymetallic (Cu-Au-Ag) Vein
Zone and the 74 Zone (Mo; discovered in 2022). The former feature can be followed over a 3 km
strike length and the latter over 2.5 km with the new geophysics.
The magnetic survey was flown using a gradient magnetic system by Precision GeoSurveys over
an area of 44.1 km2.
The Company is currently preparing for a 3D-IP survey on the Lake Zone and Polymetallic vein
zone to complement the data and further define drill targets.
“This airborne geophysical survey is the first detailed magnetic gradient, radiometric, and VLF-EM survey
completed at the Indata property”, stated Darryl Jones, CEO of Alpha. “Subsequent analysis will give our
exploration team with a modern dataset to allow for better visualization of property-scale geology; an
important step in effectively generating priority drill targets for upcoming drill programs. The survey has
outlined a geophysical anomaly beneath the prospective Lake Zone and defined clear lineaments to follow
up on in both the Polymetallic Vein Zone and the Northeast Copper Zone. In addition, the survey has also
identified other potential targets and prospects on the property”.

Geologic Model:
The Indata property is underlain by two main geological assemblages; limestone with shale and a package
of volcanic rocks with local bodies of ultramafic rocks. These units are somewhat distinguishable in the
magnetic maps when compared to existing geologic mapping (Figure 3).
Four zones of copper mineralization have been discovered at Indata (Figure 2). Porphyry style copper is
known from historic drilling in the Lake Zone on the east side of Albert Lake (Figure 2), some 500 metres
west of the area containing Au-Ag-bearing polymetallic veins (Figure 2). The new magnetic intensity
(Figure 2) and gradient magnetic maps (e.g., Figure 4) outline anomalies in each of the mineralized zones.

Airborne Survey Specifications:
The Company flew the entire Indata claim block at 100 metre spacing using a Precision Geosurveys gradient
magnetic system. This system uses 3 magnetometers to measure the gradient of the magnetic field and
collects superior data. At the same time the aircraft is fitted with sensors to collect VLF and radiometric
data. The dataset will be further interpreted to identify faults, shears and alteration patterns that may lead
to additional and refined drill targets.
Private Placement:
The Company further announces that it will undertake a non‐brokered private placement of up to
10,000,000 units of the Company (each, a “Unit”) at a price of $0.10 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds
of up to $1,000,000 (the “ Offering”). Each Unit will comprise one common share (a “ Common Share”)
of the Company and one Common Share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”), with each such Warrant entitling
the holder to acquire one additional Common Share (each, a “ Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of
$0.15 per Warrant Share for a period of three years from the date of issuance.
The Company anticipates using the proceeds from the Offering to fund existing property obligations, seek
new assets and for general working capital. The Company reserved the price for the Offering by filing a
price reservation with the Canadian Securities Exchange.
All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period expiring four
months and one day from issuance in accordance with applicable securities legislation.
