Significant copper and molybdenum intersections include:

• HM34: 1.06% CuEq over 16 metres from near surface including 8 m @ 1.71% CuEq; and 0.40% CuEq over 168.60 m including 2 m @ 1.50% CuEq, 2 m @ 1.48% CuEq, and 2 m @ 1.02%.
• HM38: 0.73% CuEq over 34.00 m including 2 m @ 2.28% CuEq, 2 m @ 1.32% CuEq, 4 m @ 1.23% CuEq; and 0.33% CuEq over 50 m.
• HM39: 0.37% CuEq over 50 m including 4 m at 1.16% CuEq.

Koryx Copper Inc. (TSX-V: KRY) announces the third assay results from its current drilling program at its Haib Copper project in southern Namibia.  The Company’s latest four drill holes continue to confirm that the deposit can deliver high grades over substantial widths within the known historical resource.

Pierre Léveillé, President & CEO of Koryx stated that: “”Those results are very positive and they are well above the Indicated Resource average grade at 0.31% Cu of the the previous Mineral Resource Estimation. We are highly satisfied with those results that add value to the deposit.”

The 3 holes for which assay results are reported here, cover 535.95 metres with all 3 holes drilled in centre of the Pit 1 target area. These holes were positioned to close the sample spacing of the previously identified shallow higher grade mineralisation in the Pit 1 area, and to better define and understand the geometry of mineralisation controls here. Assay results of significant intersections are tabulated below:

Significant Intersections

Borehole Locations (Figure 1)

HM34 was positioned in the centre of Pit1, approximately half way up the southern slope from the riverbed and drilled southwestwards to close the spacing of samples in this area of Pit1.
HM38 was located 60m east of HM34 and drilled in the same direction. Also half-way up the southern slope it too was positioned to close the sample spacing in this part of Pit1.
HM39 was drilled west of and parallel to HM34 and was positioned to close the sample spacing in this direction.

Discussion of Pertinent Results

HM34

Drilled in the centre of the Pit 1 mineralised area, the purpose of this hole was to close the sample spacing in this direction of the shallow higher grade mineralization identified here and to test the lateral extension of the deeper higher grade zones identified in this area. Results confirm the presence of the shallow mineralization with 16m @ >1% CuEq from surface with a peak grade of 2.69%. From 34m to end of hole, a 168.60m zone was intersected averaging 0.40% CuEq over the interval but with multiple higher grade intersections (>0.7% CuEq) interspersed along the full interval.

HM38

Results were very similar to HM34 with a wide (34m) near-surface zone averaging 0.73% CuEq with a peak grade of 2.28% CuEq and a deeper wider zone averaging over 0.3% CuEq.

HM39

A wide near-surface zone averaging 0.37% CuEq was intersected with one 2m sample returning 1.16% Cu.

Drilling Program Update

Since the resumption of drilling in October 2023, 22 holes have been completed totaling 4,043 metres. All 22 holes have been sampled and submitted to ALS for assaying with the results of 9 holes (1,107 samples) received to date from ALS. A further 5 boreholes (1,000m) remain to be drilled from the current programme, 4 of which expand are intended to trace the Pit1 mineralisation in the Pit2 target area.

At 1.8 billion years (Archean), the Haib Copper Deposit is one of the oldest deposits in the world. Over time, it has seen several transformations including shearing and faulting events that appear to have further concentrated Cu and Mo. A number of these mineralized structures have been identified in the Pit1. The revised drilling program looks to close the sample spacing in the Pit1 area and better delineate the extent and grades of these.

Quality Control

All drill cores were logged, photographed, and cut in half with a diamond saw. Half of the cores were bagged and sent to ALS Laboratories Ltd. in Johannesburg, South Africa for analysis (SANAS Accredited Testing Laboratory, No. T0387), while the other half was quartered with one quarter archived and stored on site for verification and reference purposes while the other quarter will be used for metallurgical test work. 33 elements are analyzed by Induced Coupled Plasma (ICP) utilizing a 4-acid digestion and gold is assayed using a 30g fire assay method. Duplicate samples, blanks, and certified standards are included with every batch and are actively used to ensure proper quality assurance and quality control.

Please note that: Mineral Resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Mineral resource estimates do not account for mineability, selectivity, mining loss and dilution. These mineral resource estimates are based on Indicated Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. However, there is no certainty that these indicated mineral resources will be converted to measured categories through further drilling, or into mineral reserves, once economic considerations are applied. There is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized.

About the Haib Copper Project

The Haib Copper Deposit is a large copper/molybdenum deposit situated 40 kilometers from the southern boundary of Namibia. The license covers 370 square kilometers (37,000 hectares). Over the years the project has seen 70,000 meters of drilling, several metallurgical test work programmes, geophysical surveys, geological mapping, mine modeling and even a feasibility study in 1996. Deep-South holds all the historical data.
