VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Oct. 28, 2014) - Copper Fox Metals Inc. ("Copper Fox" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:CUU) and its wholly owned subsidiaries Desert Fox Copper Inc. ("Desert Fox") and Northern Fox Copper Inc. ("Northern Fox") are pleased to announce updates on; the Van Dyke oxide copper project and preliminary observations on the 2014 diamond drilling program on Northern Fox's 42% investment in Carmax Mining Corp's ("Carmax") Eaglehead project and other corporate activities.

Highlights:

• Moose Mountain Technical Services ("MMTS") has commenced a resource estimate on the Van Dyke copper deposit pursuant to National Instrument 43-101 ("NI-43-101") standards,
• Metallurgical testwork on samples of copper mineralization from the Van Dyke deposit are ongoing, and a preliminary report highlighting percentage copper recoveries should be available in a few weeks,
• At Eaglehead diamond drill hole ("DDH") 0121 intersected 0.23% copper, 0.013% molybdenum, 0.06g/t gold and 0.91g/t silver (0.37% copper equivalent "CuEq")) over a core interval of 521.2m that included,
  1. 0.21% copper, 0.003% molybdenum, 0.02g/t gold and 0.51g/t silver (0.25% CuEq) over a core interval of 278.1 metre ("m") from the top of the hole at 29.9m to a core interval of 308.0m, and
  2. 0.27% copper, 0.025% molybdenum, 0.09g/t gold and 1.36g/t silver (0.48% CuEq) over a core interval of 243.1m that extends from 308.0m to the end of the hole at 551.1m, and
• DDH0122 intersected 0.28% copper, 0.016% molybdenum, 0.14g/t gold and 1.52g/t silver (0.43% copper equivalent) over an interval of 116m starting at a core length of 141m within a 304m interval that averaged 0.18% copper, 0.005% molybdenum, 0.07g/t gold and 0.82g/t silver.

Mr. Stewart, President of Copper Fox stated, "We are pleased to see the Van Dyke project advance to the resource estimation stage. This is a significant milestone in the development of the project and is in line with our 2014 goals and objectives. The ongoing metallurgical test work combined with the assessment of the historical information and the results of the 2014 exploration program has provided our consultants with a considerable amount of data for which to assess the Van Dyke copper deposit. The length, copper equivalent grades of the mineralized intervals along with the different styles the mineralization support our interpretation of the presence of a potential large, complex porphyry copper deposit on the Eaglehead project."

Van Dyke Resource Estimate:

MMTS has commenced a resource estimate on the Van Dyke copper deposit. The estimate will incorporate results of the 2014 verification drilling program and those elements of the historical data base that are applicable. The resource estimate is expected to be completed by mid-December or sooner and the National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report containing the current resource estimate will be filed on SEDAR when completed.

The 1,100 acre Van Dyke project is located in the Globe-Miami Mining district of Arizona, 90 miles east of Phoenix, Arizona. This mining district hosts the Pinto Valley, Carlota, Miami-East and Miami-Inspiration copper projects (all currently producing mines) and the mined-out Copper Cities and Old Dominion copper deposits. The Van Dyke oxide copper deposit is located immediately adjacent to the Miami-East and Miami-Inspiration operations. (see the Company's news release dated April 12, 2013 for further detail with respect to the historical work completed on the Van Dyke oxide copper deposit).

Eaglehead Drill Results:

DDH0121: was completed in the East zone and intersected continuous mineralization from overburden/bedrock contact and to the end of the hole at 551.1m. Two distinct styles of mineralization occur in this hole based on the gold-molybdenum content. The increased content of all the metals in the bottom portion of the hole especially gold and molybdenum suggests a second higher grade phase of mineralization. The mineralization in this hole has been extended approximately 115m deeper than previously tested on this section and is open at depth.

DDH0122: completed in the Bornite zone is an inclined hole that was completed to a core length of 441.96m (vertical depth of approximately 420m). The upper 6m of core from this hole contains a 16m interval that averages 0.11% copper and 0.37g/t silver. The mineralization in this hole exhibits a pattern similar to that in DDH0121 with the copper, molybdenum, gold and silver content increasing significantly in the hole below the 141m core interval.

The copper-molybdenum-gold-silver mineralization at Eaglehead is hosted in potassic and phyllic altered biotite granodiorite and quartz feldspar porphyry and is reported to occur along fractures and as stringers, veinlets, disseminations, discrete blebs and in the matrix of the host rock. Analytical results for the remainder of the 2014 drill program on the Eaglehead project will be announced on receipt thereof.

Copper equivalent calculations are based on 100% of metal content. Metal prices are: copper $US2.75/pound, gold $US1,445.00/ounce, molybdenum $US14.00/pound and silver $US20.00/ounce.
