[Click here for MRE](https://copperfoxmetals.com/reserves/)\n- The 2021 Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) yielded an after-tax NPV 8% of US$842M, an IRR of 12.9%, producing 5.0Blb of Cu, 3.7Moz of Au, 226.0Mlb of Mo and 16.4Moz of Ag over a 21 year mine life utilizing approximately 60% of the resource base. Metal prices used in the 2021 PEA were US$3.25/lb Cu, US$1,500/oz Au, US$10/lb Mo and US$20/oz Au. [Click here for PEA](https://copperfoxmetals.com/projects/schaft-creek-project/technical-reports/)\n- The objective of the 2025 program is to transition the project from the scoping study stage to the prefeasibility study (PFS) stage. The SCJV anticipates commencing the PFS in 2026 pending the recommendations of internal reviews.\n- The objective of the 2025 program is to transition the project from the scoping stage to the PFS stage. Transitioning to the PFS stage is expected to commence in early 2026, subject to meeting stringent criteria to deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns in alignment with Teck’s capital allocation framework.\n- The 2025 program includes geotechnical drilling, geophysical surveys, environmental baseline, wildlife, aquatic, hydrogeology and archeological studies, covering two critical areas of the project infrastructure, completion of the geometallurgical program and updating pit slope stability, geological, hydrogeological and mineral resource models as required.\n\n**Van Dyke - Arizona, USA - Cu**\n\n- Copper Fox owns a 100% working interest in the [Van Dyke](https://copperfoxmetals.com/projects/van-dyke/overview/) copper project, consisting of 531.5 hectares of mineral rights located in the Globe-Miami Mining District, approximately 145 kilometers (km) east of Phoenix, AZ.\n- Van Dyke is an ISCR project that intends to utilize an in-situ leaching method to recover soluble copper. Florence Copper’s ISCR project located approximately 100km west of the Van Dyke project is currently in the construction phase with first production scheduled by the end of 2025.\n- The 2020 MRE substantially increased the mineral resource. [Click here for MRE](https://copperfoxmetals.com/reserves/)\n- The 2020 PEA reported an after-tax NPV 7.5% of US$645M, an IRR of 43.4%, producing 1.1Blbs of copper over a 17 year mine life using a copper price of US$3.15/lb. [Click here for PEA](https://copperfoxmetals.com/projects/van-dyke/technical-reports/)\n- In 2024 geotechnical and mineral solubility studies yielded favourable results that could have a positive impact on project design and predicted copper production.\n- Hydrogeological and ground water sampling programs commenced in 2024 to support the development of a Conceptual Hydrogeological Site Model.\n- An Execution Plan containing detailed discussions of the work, estimated costs, timelines and permitting required to advance the project to the PFS stage has been prepared. Completion of the PFS is expected to take three years to complete at an estimated cost of US$23.4 million.\n\n**Eaglehead - British Columbia, Canada - Cu/Au/Mo/Ag**\n\n- [Eaglehead](https://copperfoxmetals.com/projects/eaglehead/overview/) is a porphyry copper project covering 15,713 hectares (158.3km2) of the Lower Jurassic age Eaglehead Pluton located in the Liard Mining District, 50km east of Dease Lake, BC.\n- The porphyry mineralization consists of copper-gold-molybdenum-silver located within an 8km long by 3km wide mineralized trend, the “mineralized corridor”.\n- The mineralized corridor hosts four open-ended porphyry copper deposits and two areas of porphyry style mineralization located along the apex of the 2025 chargeability anomaly, approximately 5% of the chargeability anomaly has been tested by drilling.\n- The 2023 MRE significantly increased the mineral resource. [Click here for MRE](https://copperfoxmetals.com/projects/eaglehead/technical-reports/)\n- Preliminary metallurgical testwork indicated the mineralization responded well to standard flotation recovery methods (locked cycle tests) yielding a third cleaner copper/molybdenite bulk concentrate that assayed 29.6% Cu, 2.72% Mo, 28.2 g/t Au, and 175.9 g/t Ag, at recoveries of 89.9% Cu, 71.1% Mo, 78.6% Au and 78.1% Ag.\n- The 2025 geophysical survey substantially expanded the size of the chargeability anomaly along strike and down dip to the north and provided a better understanding of the dimensions and potential size of the porphyry target to optimize future drilling programs. The chargeability anomaly is open to the northwest.\n\n**Sombrero Butte - Arizona, USA - Cu/Mo**\n\n- [Sombrero Butte](https://copperfoxmetals.com/projects/sombrero-butte/overview/) is a porphyry copper project covering 1,179 hectares located in the Bunker Hill Mining District east of Mammoth, AZ and approximately 3km south of Faraday’s Copper Creek porphyry copper deposit.\n- The property contains multiple clusters of mineralized breccia pipes associated with one or more porphyry systems at depth. Historical drilling of selected mineralized breccia pipes returned various core intervals of high-grade copper mineralization to a depth of 500m below surface.\n- Copper-molybdenum mineralization occurs in quartz veins and veinlets associated with a central zone of early stage potassic and propylitic alteration and a later strong phyllic overprint. The mineralization and alteration are underlain by a strong, positive chargeability anomaly.\n- The positive chargeability anomaly, (>12mv/s/25 millirads) measures 2,400m long by 1,500m wide and extends to depths exceeding 800m, shows a strong spatial correlation with moderate to intense limonite (after pyrite) alteration/staining within the Laramide age Glory Hole volcanics.\n- Historical copper production from 1903-1920 at the Magma Chief Mine exploited high grade mineralized breccia pipes with ‘low-grade’ ore assaying 3-5% and ‘higher-grade’ ore assaying 20-33%.\n- Preparation of a Plan of Operation to conduct a drill program to test the porphyry target at depth is expected to be filed in November 2025.\n\n**Mineral Mountain - Arizona, USA - Cu/Mo/Au**\n\n- At [Mineral Mountain](https://copperfoxmetals.com/projects/mineral-mountain/overview/) a ‘maiden’ four-hole drilling program is planned to commence in October 2025 to test a large gold enhanced porphyry copper-molybdenum target.\n- The Mineral Mountain porphyry copper project covers 1,751 hectares located in the Mineral Mountain Mining District east of Florence, AZ.\n- The project is located on a 100km long, northeast trending porphyry copper belt that hosts the Casa Grande, Florence, Resolution and Globe-Miami porphyry copper deposits.\n- Copper and molybdenum mineralization occurs over an area of approximately 4,500m long up to 2,000m wide and is underlain by an open-ended, northeast trending positive chargeability anomaly (>14mrad) measuring approximately 3,200m by 1,200m.\n- The copper mineralization is hosted in Laramide age, potassic, propylitic and phyllic altered prophyritic and non-porphyritic quartz monzonites and biotite granodiorites, typical host rocks for porphyry copper deposits in Arizona.\n- The copper mineralization contains a significant amount of chalcocite, a copper sulfide mineral that results from weathering/oxidization/supergene cycles and is typically observed in Laramide age porphyry copper deposits in Arizona."]
