August 27, 2020
Vancouver, British Columbia - Vancouver, British Columbia – Kodiak Copper Corp. (the “Company” or “Kodiak”) (TSX-V: KDK) has signed a definitive agreement with Brixton Metals Corporation (TSXV:BBB), whereby Brixton will acquire a 100-percent interest in Kodiak’s Trapper copper-gold porphyry project in northern British Columbia (“Trapper”).
“Brixton is ideally placed to take the Trapper project forward as their Thorn project surrounds the Trapper claims. With an existing camp at Thorn they will be able to explore Trapper cost-effectively,” said Kodiak Copper President and CEO Claudia Tornquist. “This transaction strengthens Kodiak’s focus on our southern projects, in particularly our highly prospective MPD copper gold porphyry project in South-Central BC where we are currently drilling to follow-up on our Gate Zone discovery and are expecting the first results within weeks.”
Under the terms of the agreement Brixton will pay $100,000 cash and 2,324,393 common shares as consideration for Trapper. The common shares are subject to a four month hold period pursuant to applicable securities laws. The transaction is subject to the approval of the TSX-Venture Exchange.
