[{"type":"text","content":"Auracle Completes 3D Radar Modelling for CopperBank at Pyramid and San Diego BayVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 22, 2018 / CopperBank Resources Corp. (\"CopperBank\" or the \"Company\") (CSE: CBK; OTC PINK: CPPKF; FRA: 9CP) announces the completion of a 3D radar model and report executed by Auracle Geospatial Science Inc. (\"Auracle\") for its two 100% controlled projects on the Alaskan Peninsula: Pyramid and San Diego Bay. Details from the Auracle study, including high resolution images, can be found in the Alaska Projects tab of the Company website www.copperbankcorp.com.\nIn the fall of 2017, the Company started discussions with Auracle and rapidly saw the benefits of a remote sensing study over its large Alaskan portfolio, approximately 26 by 13 kilometres in size. Auracle is a geospatial technology company that has developed a world-class system that transforms geospatial data captured from satellites, drones, and aircraft into high-resolution visual information about the earth. Auracle's technology and mapping suite combine radar and optical satellite data to penetrate vegetation, ground cover, water, ice, rocks, and soils.\nAuracle built a 3D Radar Model defining surface and near surface structures over the prospective areas of the two projects totalling 250 square kilometres. Using its exclusive algorithms, Auracle extracted strike and dip measurements of the different interpreted structures and produced a series of maps including apparent resistivity, digital elevation model, and structure analysis. This new information will help CopperBank's technical team to design future exploration programs for both projects. The company intends to do diamond drilling at both Pyramid and San Diego Bay during the summer of 2018. The zones of high fracturing are of particular interest as they reflect ground preparation to mineralization and possible subjacent intrusion. The shallow dips of the structures will also be the object of field verification as this could have an impact on the resource model until now believed to be mainly vertical.\nGianni Kovacevic, CopperBank Executive Chairman, comments, \"The new data will allow our technical team to better understand the control of mineralization within the vast colour anomaly present over the two projects. Zones of interest are standing out that have never been tested at depth. No ...
