Fabled Copper Samples 4.66% Copper at the 2b Copper Occurrence on the Neil Property
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 17, 2022 / Fabled Copper Corp. ("Fabled Copper" or the "Company") (CSE:FABL)(FSE:XZ7) announces the sixth set of results of 2021 surface field work on it's Muskwa Copper Project comprised of the Neil Property (previously referred to as the North Block) and the Toro Property (previously referred to as the South Block) in Northwestern British Columbia. The Company also holds rights to the Bronson Property. See Figure 1 below.

"We have previously reported our findings on the Lady Luck occurrence at the south end of the Neil Property, followed by the Mac occurrence; the 8A copper occurrence, the Harris copper occurrence, and the 2a copper occurrence in the central sector of the Neil Property. We now move to the 2b copper occurrence approximately 2 kilometers southwest of, and possibly the continuation, of the 2a occurrence.
The 2b copper occurrence was sampled over a vertical distance of 83 meters starting from 1,574 meters above sea level. See Figure 2 below.

Grab sample D - 7233241 taken at the 1,574 meter elevation consisted 45% brecciated siltstone, medium gray in color, with 55% white quartz carbonate in the matrix. This sample contained no apparent sulphides and as expected returned 0.01% copper. See Table 1 and Photo 1 below.

Float sample D - 723205 was taken 7 meters vertically above Grab sample D - 7233241 and consisted of quartz carbonate, was red brown in color with yellow brown patches, with dissolution cavities on the weathered surface. Minor vugs were present and abundant malachite staining with a trace of azurite and less than 1% chalcopyrite as patches, containing a trace of bornite. This sample assayed 0.36% copper. See Table 1 and Photo 2 below.

Chip sample D - 723206 was taken at the 1,594 meter elevation and consisted of 65% quartz and carbonate with a trace of chalcopyrite and 35% of highly sheared brecciated siltstone and shale, with quartz carbonate intersticial filling sampled over 1.0 meters, and as expected returned 0.01% copper. See table 1 and Photo 3 below.

Float sample D - 723240 at 1,603 meters vertically consisted of white quartz with carbonate and 5% sheared siltstone, with abundant malachite copper alteration, with less than 1% chalcopyrite as patches and blebs. This sample returned 0.86% copper. See Table 1 and Photo 4 below.

Float sample D - 723239 taken at 1,615 meters vertically consisted of quartz with iron carbonate containing abundant shale fragments. The weather surface was mottled orange brown to dark gray and the fresh surface mottled blackish gray to dark black with light gray and white specs. It contained trace malachite copper alteration with 1-2% chalcopyrite. This sampled returned 4.66% copper. See Table I and Photo 5 below.

Table 1 - 2b Copper Occurrence - Neil Property
Sample | Elevation | Type of Sample | Width | Copper (Cu) Grade |
D - 723241 | 1,574 | Grab | 0.01 | |
D - 723205 | 1,581 | Float | 0.36 | |
D - 723206 | 1,594 | Chip | 1.00 | 0.01 |
D - 723240 | 1,603 | Float | 0.86 | |
D - 723239 | 1,615 | Float | 4.66 | |
D - 723238 | 1,657 | Grab | 1.85 | |
D - 723237 | - | Float | 0.95 |
1% Copper per tonne = 22.20 lbs.
Grab sample D - 723238 taken at 1,657 meters vertically consisted of highly sheared gray siltstone, with intersticial quartz and carbonate infilling, similar to D - 723237, moderate malachite copper alteration, with 2% chalcopyrite as disseminations, blebs within the quartz carbonate. This sampled returned 1.85% copper. See Table I above and Photo 6 below.

Float sample D - 723237 consisted of highly sheared gray shale / siltstone with numerous quartz carbonate stringers and also fracture filling, moderate malachite copper alteration, a trace of azurite and bornite, and 2% chalcopyrite as blebs and disseminations. No altitude readings were taken. This sample returned 0.95% copper. See Table I above and Photo 7 below.

Moving Forwards
The Company will continue to evaluate both the 2a and 2b copper occurrences as these copper occurrences have never been drilled and remain open in all directions and may be the same mineralized veining.
QA QC Procedure
Analytical results of sampling reported by Fabled Copper Corp represent rock samples submitted by Fabled Copper Corp staff directly to ALS Chemex, Vancouver, British Columbia Canada. Samples were crushed, split, and pulverized as per ALS Chemex method PREP-31, then analyzed for ME-ICP61 33 element package by four acid digestion with ICP-AES Finish. ME-GRA21 method for Au and Ag by fire assay and gravimetric finish, 30g nominal sample weight.
Over Limit Methods
For samples triggering precious metal over-limit thresholds of 10 g/t Au or 100 g/t Ag, the following is being used:
Au-GRA21 Au by fire assay and gravimetric finish with 30 g sample.
Ag-GRA21 Ag by fire assay and gravimetric finish.
Fabled Copper Corp. monitors QA/QC using commercially sourced standards and locally sourced blank materials inserted within the sample sequence at regular intervals.
