Fabled Copper Corp. ("Fabled Copper" or the "Company") (CSE:FABL)(FSE:XZ7) announces the results of 2022 surface field work on its Muskwa Copper Project. See Figure 1 below
Figure 1 - General Property Location
The Project is comprised of the Neil Property, the Toro Property and the Bronson Property all located in northern British Columbia. See Figure 2 below.
Figure 2 - Location Map
The eastern extension of the Eagle Creek copper occurrence is located on the Neil Property roughly 1.5 km east of the 6400 Eagle Vein adit where the 2022 underground LIDAR survey was completed. The Eagle creek flows northward into the Yedhe Creek and it is located in the same valley that contains the eastern end of the 6400 adit & Eagle Vein exposure that are located on the west cliff face of the valley. During the summer of 2022 the Eagle Creek (See Release dated February 7, 2023), east extension of the Eagle Creek copper occurrence, the western extension, north extension, southern extension and the backside of the Eagle vein were visited on sperate occasions.
This release pertains to the eastern extension of the Eagle Creek Copper occurrence site visit, see Figure 3 below.
Figure 3 - Eagle Creek Copper Occurrence Location
Peter Hawley, President, CEO reports; "The eastern extension of the Eagle Creek copper occurrence was visited by a 2-person field team consisting of a geologist and geo technician on two occasions during the summer field season. A total of 10 samples were collected, all float samples. Of the 10 samples collected, 3 assayed greater than 0.5% copper. See Table 1 below.
Over the course of two site visits a vertical altitude of 335 meters was examined and 10 float samples were collected, three of which assayed greater that 0.50% copper. See Photo 1 below.

Float sample D-723607 taken at the 1,557-meter elevation consisted of semi massive sulphides with quartz, minor carbonate, abundant azurite and malachite copper alteration with 60% chalcopyrite and 35% quartz. This sample returned an impressive 15.55% copper. See Table 1 and Photo 1, below.

At the 1,307 meter altitude float sample D-723612 which consisted of vuggy quartz veining with minor patches of minor carbonate and iron carbonate contained abundant malachite copper alteration with 8% chalcopyrite as patched and disseminations and returned 6.14% copper. See Table 1, Photo 2 below

D-723608 | 1,558 | 0.03 | Float |
D-723609 | 1,524 | 0.41 | Float |
D-723611 | 1,407 | 0.04 | Float |
D-723612 | 1,307 | 6.14 | Float |
D-723613 | 1,478 | 1.09 | Float |
D-723614 | 1,665 | 0.45 | Float |
D-723692 | 1,599 | 0.24 | Float |
D-723693 | 1,641 | 0.03 | Float |
D-723695 | 1,607 | 0.01 | Float |
- 1% copper = 22.2 pounds
As per protocol, all sample locations were taken with GPS along with GPS enabled field cameras of photos of the sampled units. The photos, sample locations and all assay data pertaining to the assay taken, (36 elements were assayed) were tagged in a geo tag format for plotting in .kml / .kmz GIS systems such as Google Earth. See Photo 3 below

An additional releases on the 2022 exploration program of the Muskwa area will be forth coming in the following weeks.
QA QC Procedure
Analytical results of sampling reported by Fabled Copper Corp represent rock samples submitted by Fabled Copper Corp staff directly to ALS Chemex, Vancouver, British Columbia Canada. Samples were crushed, split, and pulverized as per ALS Chemex method PREP-31, then analyzed for ME-ICP61 33 element package by four acid digestion with ICP-AES Finish. ME-GRA21 method for Au and Ag by fire assay and gravimetric finish, 30g nominal sample weight.
Over Limit Methods
For samples triggering precious metal over-limit thresholds of 10 g/t Au or 100 g/t Ag, the following is being used:
Au-GRA21 Au by fire assay and gravimetric finish with 30 g sample.
Ag-GRA21 Ag by fire assay and gravimetric finish.
Fabled Copper Corp. monitors QA/QC using commercially sourced standards and locally sourced blank materials inserted within the sample sequence at regular intervals.
