(TSXV: CUC) announces that it has initiated exploration on its 100% owned Main Ridge Project in order to prioritize gold and copper drill targets. This exploration will focus on two very promising areas and will consist of detailed mapping, soil sampling, rock sampling and ground geophysics.\n- The Main Ridge Gold Anomaly, defined by gold in soils, an airborne potassium anomaly and distinct structures, extends over 2 kilometres to the WNW of the former Pennants Gold Mine, which produced 95,725t of ore grading 9.01g Au/t(1). \n- The Orange Hill Anomaly is on the western part of Main Ridge where recent interpretation and modelling of low-level airborne geophysics has identified a highly magnetic body of significant size in association with a copper in soil anomaly.\n Image: https://www.accesswire.com/uploads/20196_regular.jpg \n Figure 1.

Geo., of Geo-Digit-X was engaged to review and interpret Carube Copper's recently acquired low-level airborne magnetics and radiometrics and to confirm internally generated targets and to identify other targets where warranted.\nJeff Ackert, President and CEO of Carube Copper stated, \"We are excited that the expert interpretation and modelling of our airborne magnetics and radiometrics corroborated previous mapping and sampling results. Identification of a large magnetized body that forms the core of the Orange Hill Anomaly in the western part of Main Ridge is very significant and exciting. All of this gives us the confidence to identify our exploration targets, which we expect to have ready for drilling this year.\"\nOrange Hill Anomaly\nDuring the course of his work, Mr. Tykajlo identified a large intensely magnetized body in the western part of the license at the approximate intersection of inferred WNW and NE mag-structural directions (Figure 1). The modelled body has dimensions of approximately 800 x 1300 x 1200m, and tops out around 150m below surface with a centre at 600m below surface. The model gives a body of high...
