Copper Fox Metals. Kupfer-Gold-Molybdän-Silber
hier nochmals kurz der Stand der Dinge:
new update by Roulston:
(CUU-TSXV)
Copper Fox updated the status of their feasibility study on the Schaft Creek copper-gold-molybdenum-silver project in northwest British Columbia, noting the mine plan is complete and economic analysis and project sensitivity studies are underway. The company has also engaged a second firm to conduct a peer review. No definitive time-line was given, but it is fair to assume that a number of weeks will be re-quired by the time all the various approvals are given. The eagerly awaited study will trig-ger a 120-day period, during which time major-company partner Teck will elect to back-in on the project or retain a minority interest. If Teck elects to back-in for a 70% interest, they would be obligated to fund the next $350 million on the project.
Importantly, the agreement speci-fies that Teck must place the mine into production within four years to complete the earn-in. When the agreement was crafted, that time-line may have been achievable. In today’s world, it would be near im-possible to permit and construct a mine on this scale in that time frame.
Teck has a large presence in British Columbia, with two world-class operations and its global headquar-ters in Vancouver. They own 50% of the nearby Galore project and are active on a couple of other cop-per projects in the region. It seems unlikely that they would walk away from such a large resource. Further, Teck is profitable and has large cash holdings.
In the meantime, Copper Fox con-tinues its exploration program on other targets along the trend. Some of the target zones are on property outside of the joint venture prop-erty.
If Teck does not back in, then Cop-per Fox will continue to control a very large deposit and a district-scale exploration trend. If the major does back in, Copper Fox will be in a strong position, with its partner funding a great deal of work, with control of important ground outside of the joint venture and the four-year development time limit.

Teck has $4.4 billion in cash....and their share price has risen 40% since September to around $37.15. If they were to purchase Schaft Creek and surrounding lands from us for say $650 million in a purely stock based deal, they would only have to issue just over 17.5 million new shares or about a 2.5% dilution to existing Teck shareholders (573 million shares out).
So how many shares would that get Copper Fox shareholders?, well we have 426 million shares out now (fully diluted), so that would give us approx 0.04 Teck shares for every CUU share you own, or 400 TCK for every 10,000 CUU...
The conundrum for Teck, and for us, is that a $650 million purchase of Schaft Creek would represent an 82% premium to our 21 day moving average SP....well outside the premium that Don Lindsay suggested recently that they would be willing to pay. If Teck is going to make an offer within their 120 day window (they would have to present one within around 60 days to allow for negotiations) then imo they would have to see our SP rise substantially during that period to get a buyot premium back into their acceptable range of less that 50%.....good time to buy?

"The volume is quite average actually. Again, no insiders appear to be involved today. Very encouraging signs. Just means that we are left with strong longs at this stage, the weak and the traders are gone as are possibly the Frisbee throwers. Now, even the slightest buying pressure send this SP spiking. Spiking back to where it belongs.
Maybe big news IS coming."[/i]

Furthermore, if you don`t believe anything management tells you over the phone then just watch what they do and not what they say. What has DM, an inside director, done over the last few months? He has steadily accumulated over 500,000 
shs . He has never accumulated this many shares in such a short time EVER that I can recall. Doesn`t this tell you something? Doesn`t this tell you that all the conspiracy theories spouted over at SI all baseless and unfounded. In my simple mind this tells me that the 120 day clock is ticking, that the FS has been accepted by Teck and that we are getting down to the wire on a favourable decision. My 2 cents for what its worth. (DM = David Macdonald)= Insider)

VANCOUVER, Aug. 12, 2013 /CNW/ - Copper Fox Metals Inc. ("Copper Fox" or the "Company") (TSX-V: CUU) is pleased to provide an update on corporate activities. The corporate activities are intended to reflect the operations and requirements of Copper Fox on a going forward basis.
On formation of the Schaft Creek Joint Venture with Teck Resources Limited ("Teck"), Teck assumed operatorship of the Schaft Creek project resulting in a reduced level of activity at Schaft Creek for Copper Fox. The reduced level of activity at Schaft Creek combined with other corporate activities has resulted in the following highlights:
§a) A tax free cash distribution of $0.0275/share as a return of capital has been declared to shareholders of record on Tuesday, August 20, 2013 (the "Record Date"). In general terms, a return of capital is not included in income by shareholders but does reduce the cost of a share for income tax purposes. The ex distribution date for this distribution is Friday, August 16, 2013. The distribution is expected to be paid to shareholders on or before Thursday August 29, 2013,
§b) The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary to be named "Desert Fox Copper Inc." has been established as the primary operating vehicle responsible for acquisitions, and exploration and development activities on the Van Dyke copper deposit and the Sombrero Butte copper project;
§c) Copper Fox management and personnel have now been assigned to Desert Fox to support Desert Fox's new role as the primary operating vehicle for the Company, re-aligning overhead and providing savings and cost efficiencies;
§d) Desert Fox plans to immediately commence activities on its Van Dyke and Sombrero Butte copper projects (see news release dated Tuesday, July 9, 2012) located in Arizona. Activities include compilation and review of over 6,000 boxes of core and samples from 72 drill holes, diamond drilling, environmental and geotechnical studies on the Van Dyke copper deposit and a surface and geophysical exploration program on the Sombrero Butte copper project,
§e) Desert Fox intends to acquire and invest in advanced polymetallic copper projects within North America to take advantage of unprecedented current market value opportunities,
§f) The Company will hold its annual general meeting of shareholders on Wednesday, October 16, 2013.
Mr. Elmer Stewart, President of Copper Fox stated "The formation of the joint venture with Teck on the Schaft Creek project provides Copper Fox the opportunity to reward it's shareholders and at the same time retaining sufficient cash resources going forward to work on establishing the value of the Van Dyke copper project through Desert Fox. The formation of Desert Fox provides maximum flexibility to Copper Fox in determining its future dealings with its 25% interest in the Schaft Creek Joint Venture, and segregating internal operating activities and costs to Desert Fox Copper. Through Desert Fox Copper, we want to take advantage of the market opportunities now available, to actively pursue investment in and acquisition of advanced polymetallic copper projects located in North America".
Schaft Creek 2013 Drilling program:
Teck, as operator of the Schaft Creek Joint Venture, has advised Copper Fox that mobilization for executing the drilling program has commenced.
Arizona Assets and Projects:
Desert Fox plans to immediately commence operations on its Van Dyke and Sombrero Butte copper projects located in Arizona. Approximately 6,000 boxes of core and samples from the historical drill holes completed on the Van Dyke project are available for re-logging and sampling.
The objective of the 2013 work is to compile a data base to determine what, if any, additional drilling needs to be completed to establish a current resource. Additional activities include the commencement of baseline environmental studies, preliminary engineering and geotechnical studies to determine the optimal method to extract the copper mineralization, and additional metallurgical testwork to determine average copper recovery rates. The metallurgical testwork will be dictated by the results of geotechnical and engineering studies. The majority of the work to be completed in 2013 is planned for the Van Dyke copper project. A brief summary of the historical results of the Van Dyke project is outlined below.
Historical Results Van Dyke Project:
The 1,100 acre Van Dyke project is located in the Globe-Miami Mining district of Arizona, 90 miles east of Phoenix, Arizona. In the early 1900s, a shaft was sunk to a depth of 1,692 feet and the mine is reported to have produced 11.8 million pounds of copper between 1929 and 1945 from copper oxide mineralization at a reported grade of 5.0 % copper.
Between 1968 and 1973, Occidental Minerals Corporation ("Occidental") and a number of other companies drilled 70 exploration holes (sixty-two of which encountered measureable copper mineralization) on the Van Dyke property of which 46 holes were used to complete an historical estimate of 112,000,000 tons at a grade of 0.52% copper (estimated to contain 1.2 billion pounds of copper). Occidental used a polygonal method to complete the historical estimate. The parameters used to complete the historical estimate are: mineralization was extrapolated a maximum distance of 400 feet from a drill hole and copper grades were capped at 2.5% with a tonnage factor of 12.5 cubic feet per ton. The minimum mineralized interval used in the historical estimate was 15 feet depending on trend, geology and grade of adjacent mineralized intercepts. The historical estimate is set out in a report entitled "Report and Recommendations for the Van Dyke Copper Project, Arizona", dated December 12, 1973 prepared by Mr. J. A. Johnston, geologist.
Copper Fox cautions that a Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify the Van Dyke historical estimate as a current resource estimate. Copper Fox is not treating the Van Dyke historical estimate as a current resource estimate. The work completed by Occidental has not been verified by Copper Fox and is not considered reliable when compared with National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") standards.
Additional diamond drilling, assaying, confirmation of the extent and grade of the mineralization reported in the core holes used in the historical estimate, density measurements, updated metal prices and additional metallurgical testwork is required to either upgrade or verify the Van Dyke historical estimated as a current mineral resource.
Occidental also completed preliminary metallurgical testwork to determine if the copper mineralization in the Van Dyke deposit was amendable to in-situ leaching, with a pilot program of two 1,000 foot deep holes, 75 feet apart. The reports on the Insitu leaching metallurgical testwork indicated copper recoveries up to 80% using hydrofracturing to improve fluid circulation.
Sombrero Butte Property:
The Sombrero Butte property consists of 2,887 acres located in the Bunker Hill Mining District 44 miles northeast of Tucson, Arizona. The project is located 9 miles east of the San Manuel Mine (14 billion lbs Cu), and 2 miles south of Redhawk Resources' Copper Creek project (7.75 billion lbs Cu).
Desert Fox's objective in 2013 on the Sombrero Butte project is to locate the source of mineralized breccia pipes located on the property. To achieve this objective, a program of surface mapping and sampling followed by a deep penetrating geophysical survey (Induced Polarization) to identify chargeability/resistivity anomalies indicative of porphyry copper systems is planned.
Previous exploration on this project located 25 breccia pipes which elsewhere in the district overlie associated porphyry copper systems. The source of the mineralized breccia pipes is interpreted to be one or more underlying porphyry copper systems. Between 2006 and 2008, 29 of 34 holes drilled to test 8 breccia pipes intersected significant copper mineralization over core intervals ranging from 2m to 72m with average copper grades ranging from 0.37% to 5.85% for these intervals (see table below). The mineralization in these breccia pipes remains open at depth. Some of the mineralized intervals from the 34 holes completed are as follows:
Breccia Pipe Drill Hole ID From (m) To (m) Interval (m) Copper (%)
Magma SB-02 286 334 48 1.06
Campstool SB-03 272 294 22 0.58
Sunset SB-05 18 40 22 4.74
Rattler SB-09 96 110 14 0.83
Audacious SB-14 20 86 66 1.45
Victor's SB-29 4 70 66 0.61
The mineralized intervals listed in the above table do not represent true widths.
Corporate Overhead Reductions:
Copper Fox has commenced a program to reduce its general and administrative expenses to reflect the change in operatorship in its 25% owned Schaft Creek joint venture. The corporate target is a 40% reduction in general and administrative expenses on an annualized basis.
Future Acquisitions:
Desert Fox plans to take advantage of the current state of the mineral industry to acquire either working or equity interest in large polymetallic copper projects located in North America.
