Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - March 27, 2024) - Copper Fox Metals Inc. (TSXV: CUU) (OTCQX: CPFXF) (FSE: HPU) ('Copper Fox' or the 'Company') through its wholly owned subsidiary Desert Fox Copper Inc., is pleased to provide an update on its 100% owned Van Dyke in-situ copper recovery ('ISCR') project located in the Globe-Miami Mining District, Gila County, Arizona.

艾伯塔省卡爾加里--(Newsfile Corp.-2024 年 3 月 27 日)- Copper Fox Metals Inc.(多倫多證券交易所股票代碼:CUU)(場外交易所代碼:CPFXF)(FSE:HPU)(“Copper Fox” 或 “公司”) 通過其全資子公司 沙漠福克斯銅業公司 很高興提供其位於亞利桑那州吉拉縣環球邁阿密礦區的全資擁有的Van Dyke現場銅回收(“ISCR”)項目的最新情況。

The drillhole rehabilitation program focused on assessing the potential of rehabilitating historical drillholes for use as hydrogeological monitoring and water sampling stations. Of the drillholes selected for completion, due to downhole difficulties encountered, only one of three drillholes were successfully completed.

鑽孔修復計劃的重點是評估修復歷史鑽孔以用作水文地質監測和水採樣站的可能性。在選定完井的鑽孔中,由於遇到井下困難,三個鑽孔中只有一個成功完成。

The current geotechnical work is focused on collecting additional data on the Gila Conglomerate to support an updated mine plan to access the Van Dyke deposit. Highlights of activities completed are:

當前的岩土工程工作側重於收集有關吉拉集團的更多數據,以支持更新的礦山計劃,以開採範戴克礦牀。已完成活動的亮點有:

Highlights

亮點

  • Installation of the vibrating wire piezometers ('VWP's') and data recorder in drillhole M-3 has been completed and daily recording of hydrogeological data from this monitoring station commenced in mid-March. Four stations are now recording hydrogeological data.
  • Analysis of the formational waters from the Gila Conglomerate collected during the drillhole rehabilitation program returned concentrations of metals, anions, and cations well below acceptable limits established by the Environmental Protection Agency ('EPA').
  • Laboratory strength testing of samples of the Gila Conglomerate is nearing completion with preliminary results expected mid-April.
  • Chemical analyses of the pregnant leach solution ('PLS') from the mineralogical and solubility testwork completed in late 2023 and early 2024 is planned.
  • 振動線壓電計(“VWP”)和數據記錄器在鑽孔M-3中的安裝已經完成,該監測站的每日水文地質數據的記錄已於3月中旬開始。現在有四個監測站正在記錄水文地質數據。
  • 對鑽孔修復計劃期間收集的吉拉集團地層水的分析顯示,金屬、陰離子和陽離子的濃度遠低於環境保護署(“EPA”)規定的可接受限值。
  • 對吉拉集團樣本的實驗室強度測試已接近完成,初步結果預計將於4月中旬公佈。
  • 計劃對2023年底和2024年初完成的礦物學和溶解度測試工作中的孕浸溶液(“PLS”)進行化學分析。

Elmer B. Stewart, President and CEO of Copper Fox, stated, "Initiation of the collection of hydrogeological and water quality data is a significant step in advancing the Van Dyke project. The new hydrogeological data will augment the historical hydrogeological database and will be used to prepare an updated hydrogeological model for the Van Dyke project; a critical step in advancing the project to the permitting stage."

Copper Fox總裁兼首席執行官埃爾默·斯圖爾特表示:“開始收集水文地質和水質數據是推進範戴克項目的重要一步。新的水文地質數據將增強歷史水文地質數據庫,並將用於爲範戴克項目準備更新的水文地質模型;這是將該項目推進到許可階段的關鍵一步。”

Drillhole Rehabilitation
A significant component of advancing an ISCR project in Arizona to the permitting stage is the preparation of a robust hydrogeological model for review by the United States Environmental Protection Agency ('USEPA') and Arizona state regulatory authorities. With the completion of drillhole M-3, four hydrogeological monitoring stations are recording data daily.

鑽孔修復
將亞利桑那州ISCR項目推進到許可階段的一個重要組成部分是準備一個強大的水文地質模型,供美國環境保護署(“USEPA”)和亞利桑那州監管機構審查。隨着鑽孔M-3的完工,四個水文地質監測站每天都在記錄數據。

Geotechnical Program
Development of the Van Dyke oxide copper deposit contemplates driving a decline in the Gila Conglomerate to a level approximately fifty meters above the Gila/Leach Cap contact. The geotechnical study is being completed to obtain a better understanding of the geotechnical properties of the Gila Conglomerate that could impact the proposed decline. The drill core logging and sample selection portion of the geotechnical program has been completed and laboratory testing of the samples collected is nearing completion. The data from this study will be used to determine if changes to the mine plan contemplated in the 2020 Preliminary Economic Assessment ('PEA') are required. The geotechnical program also includes a data gap evaluation for the available geotechnical data. A hydrogeological data review from the Van Dyke project is also planned to determine if additional data would be needed to support a prefeasibility level study.

岩土工程項目
Van Dyke氧化銅礦牀的開發考慮將Gila集團的下跌推向比Gila/Leach Cap接觸點高出約五十米的水平。岩土工程研究正在完成之中,目的是更好地了解吉拉集團的岩土工程特性,這可能會影響擬議的衰退。岩土工程計劃的鑽芯測井和樣本選擇部分已經完成,對採集樣本的實驗室測試已接近完成。這項研究的數據將用於確定是否需要修改2020年初步經濟評估(“PEA”)中設想的採礦計劃。岩土工程項目還包括對現有岩土工程數據進行數據差距評估。還計劃對範戴克項目的水文地質數據進行審查,以確定是否需要更多數據來支持預可行性水平的研究。

Water Quality
During the drillhole rehabilitation program, samples of the formational water of the Gila Conglomerate from five drillholes were collected and analyzed for alkalinity, anions, cations, and metal concentrations. The alkalinity, anions, cations, and metal in all water samples returned concentrations well below the thresholds established by the USEPA. Ongoing sampling of the water in the Gila Conglomerate will continue to establish a baseline for the project.

水質
在鑽孔修復計劃中,收集了來自五個鑽孔的吉拉集團地層水樣本,並分析了鹼度、陰離子、陽離子和金屬濃度。所有水樣中的鹼度、陰離子、陽離子和金屬返回的濃度都遠低於美國環保局設定的閾值。正在進行的吉拉集團水質採樣將繼續爲該項目建立基準。

Hydrogeological Data Collection
The hydrogeological data from the four monitoring stations is collected daily and uploaded via satellite to a dedicated database.

水文地質數據收集
每天收集來自四個監測站的水文地質數據,並通過衛星上傳到專用數據庫。

PLS Analyses
The 2020 PEA recommended completion of a five-well pilot test (one injection and four recovery wells) to determine connectivity between the wells, the ability to contain the leaching fluids as well as several other pertinent parameters associated with the in-situ leaching process. The recommended five-well pilot test requires the injection and recirculation of leaching fluid and on completion of the test, "rinsing" of the leached area is required to meet the requirements established by the USEPA and Arizona Department of Environmental Quality ('ADEQ'). Treatment of these solutions is required prior to disposal to meet USEPA and ADEQ standards.

PLS 分析
2020年PEA建議完成一項五口井試驗(一口注入井和四口回收井),以確定油井之間的連通性、容納浸出液體的能力以及與現場浸出過程相關的其他幾個相關參數。建議的五口井試點測試需要注入和再循環浸出液,測試完成後,必須對浸出區域進行 “沖洗”,以滿足美國環保局和亞利桑那州環境質量部(“ADEQ”)制定的要求。在處置這些溶液之前,需要對這些溶液進行處理,以滿足美國環保局和ADEQ標準。

Modelling of the treatment facility to treat the leach solution and rinse water prior to disposal is possible by using the chemistry of the PLS from the solubility testwork and the source water used to make up the leaching solution. This data would provide critical information as to the scope, capacity, and costs of a treatment plant.

通過使用溶解度測試工作中PLS的化學成分和用於構成浸出溶液的源水,可以對處理浸出溶液和在處置前沖洗水的處理設施進行建模。這些數據將提供有關處理廠範圍、容量和成本的關鍵信息。
