CopperBank Resources Establishes a Special Committee to Evaluate Contact Copper

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 24, 2018 / CopperBank Resources Corp. ("CopperBank" or the "Company") (CSE: CBK; OTC PINK: CPPKF; FRA: 9CP) announces that its board of directors has established a special committee to comprehensively review valuation metrics for its 100% owned Contact Copper Oxide Project (the "Project"), located on private property in Elko County, Nevada. The Company has received various levels of interest in the Project, so it is creating this committee to equip the board to evaluate the various options available, provide peer group comparisons, and better enable management to consider next steps with the Project to unlock shareholder value.

Gianni Kovacevic, CopperBank Executive Chairman, comments, "The table top optimization studies that we have concluded in the past months demonstrate various cost effective initiatives that could significantly improve project economics. With the rise in copper prices compounded with the recently enacted lowering of corporate tax rate in the United States to 21%, a top-to-bottom re-evaluation of the project is the prudent thing to do for our shareholders."
