(TSXV: CUU) (OTC Pink: CPFXF) (\"Copper Fox\" or the \"Company\") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Desert Fox Copper Inc., are pleased to provide an update of compilation work and exploration plans for its 100% owned Sombrero Butte porphyry copper project located approximately 70 kilometers ('kms') northeast of Tucson, Arizona. The Sombrero Butte property is located approximately 3 kms south of the Copper Creek porphyry copper deposit. Copper Creek is in the NNW structural trend that hosts the Ray, San Manuel and Bisbee porphyry copper deposits in Arizona. This deposit is hosted in the Copper Creek granodiorite and is characterized by an abundance of mineralized breccia pipes exposed in outcrop overlying the porphyry deposit. These breccia pipes are a significant geological feature of this and other porphyry copper deposits and mines throughout Arizona. Highlights:A 150-line km drone-based magnetometer survey is planned to outline the magnetic signatures over two large porphyry copper targets hosted in the Laramide age Copper Creek granodiorite. The magnetic survey should further define and constrain the distribution of alteration patterns and structures within the two targets. The results from diamond drill hole ('DDH') SB-03, completed in 2008, suggest proximity to a mineralized chargeability body within Target #1, the magnetic survey could better define this target.The porphyry targets exhibit swarms of mineralized breccia pipes, alteration patterns, mineralized structures, and chargeability signatures typical of a porphyry copper system.The geochemical mapping, pathfinder elements and alteration indicator minerals also support the presence of one or more cupolas of buried porphyry systems. Elmer B. Stewart, President and CEO of Copper Fox, stated, \"The magnetic survey is expected to better define the geometry, structural control and alteration patterns associated with both targets. The work to date continues to update the geological model, identify significant structural control, and constrains the distribution of the mineralization and alteration patterns in both targets. The objective of the magnetic survey is to confirm the current interpretation and based on size and ...
