(\"Desert Fox\") is pleased to provide an update of recent activities on its Van Dyke\n oxide copper deposit located in the Globe-Miami mining district of\n Arizona.  Copper Fox acquired 100% of Bell Copper Corporation interest\n in the Van Dyke copper deposit in early 2013 (see News Release dated\n April 12, 2013).\n\n\nHighlights:\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\na)     \n\n\nMoose Mountain Technical Services has been retained to review and model\n all of the historical exploration and test leaching data with the\n objective of making recommendation for further work including diamond\n drilling to confirm the historical estimate of 112 million tons grading\n 0.53% copper,\n\n\n\n\nb)     \n\n\nKnight Piésold has been retained to review all historical engineering,\n geotechnical and hydrogeological data generated by Occidental Mineral\n Corporation in the 1970's and Kocide Chemical's test in-situ production\n data generated between 1988 -1989, and\n\n\n\n\nc)     \n\n\nGreenwood Environmental working with Knight Piésold has been retained to\n provide consulting services on the environmental and permitting aspects\n of a potential in-situ leach mining project on the Van Dyke oxide\n copper deposit.\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\nMr. Stewart, President and CEO of Copper Fox stated, \"The Van Dyke oxide\n copper deposit is a significant under explored copper asset of the\n Company.  The historical estimation, in-situ leaching test work and\n production data from an in-situ leach mining operation completed\n between the early 1970's and 1989 yielded positive results.  Our\n immediate objective at Van Dyke is to complete the geological,\n engineering, geotechnical and environmental work necessary to prepare a\n Preliminary Economic Assessment there by establishing a valuation for\n this project.  The Van Dyke oxide copper deposit complements our 25%\n interest in the large Schaft Creek copper-gold-molybdenum-silver\n deposit.  We expect some or all of the drilling results for the 2013\n season at Schaft Creek to be released in December.\"\n\n\nMoose Mountain Tech...
