About Crown Mining Corp.
Crown controls approximately 15 square miles of patented and unpatented federal mining claims
in the Light’s Creek Copper District in Plumas County, NE California; essentially, the entire
District. The District contains substantial copper (silver) sulf ide and copper oxide resources in
three deposits – Moonlight, Superior and Engels, as well as several partially tested and untested
exploration targets.
The Superior and Engels Mines operated from about 1915-1930 producing over 161 million
pounds of copper from over 4 million tons of rock containing 2.2% copper with silver and gold
credits.
The Moonlight Deposit was discovered and drilled by Placer Amex during the 1960’s. A
Preliminary Economic Assessment Study ("PEA"), prepared by Tetra Tech Inc., had the
following highlights:
After-tax NPV of US$179M at a 8% discount rate and a $3.15 copper price.
After tax IRR of 14.6%
Initial Capital Cost: US$513M, including a contingency provision in the amount of
US$71M
Plant Processing Rate: 60,000 tons per day (STPD)
Average Copper Recovery: 86.0%
Mine Life: 17 years, based on the existing Mineral Resource estimate
Life of mine copper production of 1.5 billion pounds
Please note the PEA is preliminary in nature an d includes inferred mineral resources that are
considered too speculative geologically to have th e economic considerations applied to them that
would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. Furthermore, there is no certainty that
the preliminary economic assessment will be real ized. Mineral resources that are not mineral
reserves do not have demonstrated economic vi ability. Readers are encouraged to read the
technical report when it is filed.
Further details of the PEA and the resources on Crown’s property and th e parameters used to
calculate them can be found in the "Technical Report and Preliminary Economic Assessment for
the Moonlight Deposit, Moonlight-Superior Copper Project, California, USA" dated April 12,
2018 on both the company’s website at www.crownminingcorp.com or on www.sedar.com under
