Gil Clausen, Copper Mountains President and CEO stated, These early phase 2 drill results are very encouraging, and we believe demonstrate that New Ingerbelle will continue to grow in quality and size. We see New Ingerbelle as having transformative potential for our operations in B.C. providing further growth opportunity for the Company.

New Ingerbelle provides considerable upside as the Company has never reported any New Ingerbelle Mineral Reserves. Copper Mountain initiated a 3-Phase drilling program at the New Ingerbelle Mine last year with Phase 1. The Phase 1 program, which consisted of 22 drill holes, was successful in validating and confirming historical data, thus allowing a revised Mineral Resource estimate using both historical and new drill data. The program also confirmed the significant gold mineralization at New Ingerbelle (see February 1, 2018 press release).





The objectives of this Phase 2 drilling program are to continue to expand the New Ingerbelle resource area and to convert Inferred Mineral Resources to the Measured and Indicated status. A total of 30 holes are planned. Complete drill results from this program followed by an updated Mineral Resource estimate is planned in Q3 2018.

The Companys objective under the 3-phase program at New Ingerbelle is to outline sufficient resources to form the basis of a Feasibility Study on the development potential of this historic producing mine. The Companys target is to add a minimum of 150 million tonnes of Measured and Indicated resource to commence that study.

Significant intercepts from the seven completed drill holes to date, are summarized in the table below. A drill hole location map for the Phase 2 program and associated cross sections can be found in Appendix B, while a detailed listing of drill holes being reported can be found in Appendix C.

Diamond drilling, which runs 24/7, uses NQ2 diameter rods and bits and drill core is placed in wooden boxes which are delivered to the core logging area at the end of every shift. Drill-hole collars are surveyed with differential GPS and down-hole surveys using a Reflex instrument are taken approximately every 30-80m depending on ground conditions and hole length. The core is logged, and sample tags a stapled into the boxes where samples are to be taken and the core is photographed. Core recovery is always at, or near, 100% except for fault zones. All assay samples are 3m in length. Core is split with a diamond saw, and samples are transported to the mines analytical laboratory by members of the exploration team. Samples are sorted, weighed, dried and crushed prior to pulverizing to 75% passing -200mesh. Cu and Ag are analyzed by XRF and samples with >0.4% Cu are re-analyzed by Atomic Absorption. Sample pulps for all samples >0.1% Cu are delivered to a commercial lab for Au analysis by either fire assay or Aqua Regia digestion followed by AA analysis. Additionally, every tenth sample is analyzed by ICP-AES for a 35 element suite, which includes Cu and Ag providing checks on the mine-site laboratory, in addition to routine insertion of standards and blanks. All pulps and coarse-reject material are retained.

Intercept grades are length-weighted averages using uncut grades. For additional information on project land holdings, history, production data, geology and mineralization, the reader is directed to Canadian NI:43-101 reports which a filed under the company name on the SEDAR website.
