Copper Fox Announces Positive IP Results for Mineral Mountain Copper Project

Copper Fox Metals Inc. (TSXV: CUU) (OTC Pink: CPFXF) ("Copper Fox" or the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Desert Fox Copper Inc., are pleased to announce the results of a reconnaissance style, deep penetrating induced polarization ("IP") (chargeabilityresistivity) survey on its 100% owned Mineral Mountain project (the "Project") located approximately 16 miles northeast of Florence, Arizona.

Highlights:

• A positive chargeability anomaly with approximate dimensions of 2,900 meters ("m") by 1,300m has been outlined. The anomaly is open to the southwest.
• In the northern portion of the IP survey area, the chargeability anomaly correlates with the copper-molybdenum mineralization in outcrop and post mineral faults that controls the limits of the mineralization.
• A positive resistivity anomaly (600m by 400m) occurs within the chargeability anomaly and coincides with a zone of copper-molybdenum mineralization with molybdenum concentrations ranging from 20 to 1,700 parts per million ("ppm") in outcrop.
• The results of an independent property reconnaissance over approximately 363-acres of the Project concluded; no acuña cactus were observed, the potential for archaeological sites is low to moderate and no evidence of leaks, spills, or potential sources of contamination was observed.

Elmer B. Stewart, President and CEO of Copper Fox, stated, "The IP survey has provided the certainty required to plan a diamond drill program to test several high potential copper-molybdenum exploration targets. The chargeability and resistivity anomalies exhibit a strong correlation to the copper and molybdenite mineralization in outcrop, post mineral faulting, and geochemical vectoring studies. The property reconnaissance survey established a background for the Project and will provide definitive information when filing a Geological Field Operations Plan to conduct drilling operations."

Geological Model:

The Project covers a multi-phase, Laramide age intrusive stock, approximately 5 kilometers ("km") by 2km. The western portion of the stock exhibits sporadic, weak propylitic alteration and is not mineralized. The eastern portion of the stock exhibits altered, mineralized and non-mineralized granodiorite and quartz monzonite phases cut by syn-mineralization and late-stage dikes. The Laramide stock is interpreted to dip to the east under the Precambrian rocks. The western edge of the copper mineralization is defined by regional scale N-S and ENE trending faults. The mineralized zone exhibits early stage potassic alteration, overprinted by pervasive sericite and late stage propylitic alteration phases with copper-epidote veining. The mineralization in outcrop consists of malachite, covellite and chalcocite resulting from the transformation of primary chalcopyrite related to weathering/oxidization/ enrichment processes after the Laramide hydrothermal event.

Geophysical Study:

The chargeability anomaly (4.5mV/V (10 mrad)) correlates with the limits of the mineralization and faults that define the limits of the mineralization. The chargeability anomaly is interpreted to plunge to the SW and extends from 200m to 400m east of the intrusive contact under the Precambrian rock. The Precambrian rock along the intrusive contact hosts a significant number of copper showings. The resistivity anomaly correlates with an area of abundant quartz vein hosted copper-molybdenite mineralization that returned molybdenum concentrations ranging from 20 to 1,700 ppm.

Property Reconnaissance:

Copper Fox contracted SWCA Environmental Consultants ("SWCA") to document the predrilling conditions within a 363-acre area of the Project. SWCA reviewed historical and recent aerials, USGS topographic maps and Google Earth (2021) imagery to identify any humanmade structures and landscape modifications. SWCA also reviewed the files in the AZSITE database, including records from the Arizona State Museum, Arizona State University, and Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") to determine the existence of previously recorded archaeological sites within the property.

The property reconnaissance did not observe any acuña cactus within the area, the IP survey had previously been suspended pending completion of an Environmental Assessment requested by the BLM regarding concerns related to the acuña cactus. The location and environmental setting also suggest the potential for archaeological sites within the area is low to moderate and no evidence of leaks, spills, or potential sources of contamination was observed.

Geophysical Survey Procedures:

The induced polarization survey (12.2km) was commissioned to Geofisica TMC (Simon McCrory, operator). Station markers were set at 50m intervals using a Garmin GPS (UTM12N_NAD83). The survey consisted of 3; NW50ºº oriented profiles approximately 1.15km apart ranging in length between 2.5 and 3.0km; labelled L-1N, L-2N and L-3N and a 4.2km long Base Line (L-10E), which crosscuts the three other lines in the central part of the property.

The pole-dipole (dipole-pole) array chosen has a nominal "a" spacing between the electrodes of 100 meters and the separation factor between the dipoles varied form n= 1 to 12 for the survey. A Walcer Geophysics TX-KW10 Generator (10.0 kW) and a GDD Instrumentation GRX8-32 Time Domain Receiver were used to collect the data. 2D pseudo-sections and IP maps at a 1/10, 000 scale of the resistivity and chargeability inversion models was prepared at vertical depths of 100 and 300m.
