CopperBank Resources Corp: Auracle Completes 3D Radar Modelling for CopperBank at Pyramid and San Diego Bay

VANCOUVER, 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.

In 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.

Auracle 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.

Gianni 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 drilling has ever occurred at the San Diego Bay Project. Future programs will be greatly assisted with the results fromAuracle's study."

David McLelland, CEO of Auracle Geospatial Science Inc. stated, "It was a pleasure to work with CopperBank on their very exciting Alaska projects. We believe that the new information derived from our Auracle System will play an important role in CopperBank's go forward exploration program." David McLelland goes on to explain that, "A fracture density model, derived from the CopperBank Alaska radar remote sensing, and used to explore for buried phenomena, revealed an annular pattern analogous to Mt.Ellen and Bingham Canyon radar fracture patterns. Our technology works at, near and under the Earth's surface so we can 'see' through things that no other technology can claim."

About Auracle

Auracle Geospatial Science Inc. is a private Canadian remote sensing and technology company that has developed an innovative and proprietary technology, "The Auracle System," that uses satellite data to penetrate surface and subsurface to build a comprehensive 3D geological model including everything from ground surface to true bedrock.

About Pyramid

The Pyramid project is located on private property with the subsurface controlled by The Aleut Corporation, an Alaska Native-owned corporation. Pyramid is a porphyry copper deposit containing a historical inferred mineral resource estimate of 122 million tonnes at 0.41% copper, 0.02% molybdenum, and 0.10 g/t gold (SRK, 2013) applying a 0.4% copper equivalent cut-off, divided into three main recognized zones: Main, North, and West. The mineralization is related to a multi-phased calk-alkaline intrusion, intruding sediments of Tertiary Age. The porphyry system is of a minimal extent of 1.5 km2, displays a leached cap, phyllic, propyllitic, and potassic alteration analogous to the other copper deposits of the Circum-Pacific Belt. The observed mineralization consists mainly in disseminations of chalcocite, chalcopyrite and local molybdenite and sulphide veinlets. Bornite, malachite and chrysocolla are also reported as accessory minerals.

About San Diego Bay

The San Diego Bay Prospect is a joint venture on a 100% basis between CopperBank and the Aleut Corporation, an Alaska Native corporation controlling the subsurface. The San Diego Bay prospect is typified by an extensive 40 square-kilometre area of strong hydrothermal alteration and intrusive rocks, consistent with an alteration halo over a porphyry system such as the adjacent Pyramid deposit, also controlled by CopperBank. All porphyry alteration facies have been described, including zones of potassic, advanced argillic and phyllic zones; a previous satellite imagery interpretation has identified widespread zones of high-temperature clay alteration. Strong anomalous precious and base metal values were collected by previous operators in few areas. A short visit in August has allowed CopperBank to verify punctually the lithologies and alteration reported historically. Interpretation suggests that San Diego Bay may represent a long lived thriving hydrothermal system.

The intrusive lithological facies observed are similar to the ones observed at the adjacent Pyramid deposit presenting a leach cap of variable thickness ranging from 10 to 100 meters and underlain by a supergene enrichment blanket. Cobbles of copper oxide mineralization have been identified by local Aleut shareholders on beaches adjacent to the alteration zone. Based on all the here listed observations, San Diego Bay presents an excellent potential for a significant Cu-(Au) porphyry deposit at depth combined with an excellent location, 5 kilometers away from a deep port over the Pacific Ocean.
