Copper Fox Commences Titan-24 DCIP Survey at Sombrero Butte Copper Project

13.07.2015  |  Marketwire

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - July 13, 2015) - Copper Fox Metals Inc. ("Copper Fox" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:CUU)(OTC PINK:CPFXF) and its wholly owned subsidiary Desert Fox Copper Inc. ("Desert Fox") are pleased to announce the commencement of a Quantec Titan-24 DCIP survey on their Sombrero Butte copper project located in the Bunker Hill Mining District, Arizona. 

The Titan-24 DCIP survey consists of two lines, each 6 kilometers long, for a total of 12 kilometers of survey. Field work completed in 2013 by Desert Fox outlined a 4 kilometer long area on surface that exhibits alteration, mineralized veining and geochemical signatures suggestive of a buried porphyry copper system. The Titan-24 DCIP survey is being completed across the 4 kilometer long zone to test for either chargeability and or resistivity signatures characteristic of a buried porphyry copper system. Approximately 40 mineralized breccia pipes (commonly associated with porphyry copper deposits in this part of Arizona) have been located within the four kilometer long zone and on the property. A number of these mineralized breccia pipes were exploited in the past by small-scale underground mining and more recently tested at depth with diamond drilling. The breccia pipes tested by diamond drilling contained higher grade copper mineralization over considerable widths (see News Release dated July 9th, 2012).

Elmer B. Stewart, President and CEO of Copper Fox stated, "We are pleased to be advancing the exploration of the Sombrero Butte project. The previous exploration results, the current activities by other copper companies in this area and the proximity to the San Manuel/Kalamazoo and Copper Creek copper deposits suggest potential to locate a large porphyry copper system at depth. The results of the proposed survey would be beneficial in aiding Desert Fox in making its corporate decision related to making the next property payment due later this year."

Elmer B. Stewart, MSc. P. Geol., President of Copper Fox, is the Company's nominated non-independent Qualified Person pursuant to National Instrument 43-101, Standards for Disclosure for Mineral Projects, has reviewed the scientific and technical information disclosed in this news release.
