Interra Copper Corp. Commences Core Drilling for its 2021 Program

Interra Copper Corp. (CSE:IMCX)(OTCQB:IMIMF)(FRA:3MX) ("Interra" or the "Company"), is pleased to report that our maiden drilling program has commenced on our 206 square kilometer Thane Property in North Central B.C. This prospect has never been drilled. The camp has been functioning since the beginning of July, with 8 drill pads built, and ground crews mapping and sampling key areas

This Phase 1 drilling program will consist of a minimum of 2,400 meters in 8 locations designed to test highly anomalous zones of coincident IP chargeability, (+/- resistivity and magnetics), soil and outcrop geochemistry and geology in the Cathedral area identified in the Company's previous exploration program including a large prospective copper gold porphyry target and what appears to be structurally controlled and enriched mineralization.

This maiden drill program is expected to take approximately 40 days to complete with the final core to be shipped to ALS lab no later than mid-September. In addition to drilling, the company will also be continuing the geological mapping, sampling and ground geophysics in other areas of the property to advance these known areas of copper-gold mineralization to the drilling stage.

Dave McMillan, Interim Chief Executive Officer, stated: "With the drill now turning our ground teams will work in tandem with the drilling team to maximize our efficiency. Our workflow includes a portable XRF [X-ray fluorescence] with the goal of increasing the turnaround time for obtaining reliable geochemical results. All samples will be submitted to ALS laboratories for multi-element and gold analyses, but the in field analyses will allow the company to prioritize additional drilling past the planned 2400 meters. We remain in a strong cash position and look forward to presenting results as received for the initial drilling program."
