All of the Company''s material subsidiaries are wholly owned, except for Carmax Mining Corp. ("Carmax") (TSX VENTURE: CXM), of which the Company owns 65.4% of the outstanding common shares.

All references to planned activities and technical information contained in this news release have been previously announced by way of news releases. All amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated.
Elmer B. Stewart, President and CEO of Copper Fox stated, "In 2016, Copper Fox achieved positive technical results on all five of its projects, while considerably reducing its general and administrative expenses. At Schaft Creek, the joint venture completed a geological model and commenced updating the Schaft Creek deposit resource model, in addition to other project related activities. The Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") of the Van Dyke project indicated that the anticipated costs to produce a pound of copper is in the first quartile for global copper costs, identified a number of economic enhancements, and recommended the completion of a pre-feasibility study. The Mineral Mountain, Sombrero Butte, and Eaglehead (Carmax) projects were all advanced technically during the fiscal year ended 2016, and all yielded positive results. One potential issue that arose during the fiscal year ended 2016 was Carmax''s ownership of its Eaglehead mineral tenures. This issue has been heard by the courts and the Company is now awaiting a decision. Until said decision is rendered, Carmax''s ownership of the Eaglehead mineral claim tenures remains in doubt. Going into 2017, Copper Fox will continue its strategy adopted in 2016, which is to focus on advancing its projects through exploration and development."
