About Koryx Copper Inc.
Koryx Copper Inc. is a Canadian company dedicated to advancing its 100% owned Haib Copper Project located in Namibia, while also expanding its portfolio of exploration licenses in Zambia. The Haib Project represents a substantial, advanced copper/molybdenum porphyry deposit recognized for its longstanding exploration history and ongoing development.

Mineral Resource Details
The current mineral resource at Haib stands at 414 million tons at a grade of 0.35% copper, translating to approximately 1,459 million tons of contained copper in the Indicated category. Additionally, the Inferred category holds 345 million tons at 0.33% copper, representing 1,136 million tons of contained copper at a 0.25% cut-off grade. Several technical studies remain ongoing or have been completed, aiming to enhance Haib’s profile as a large, economical, and low-risk open-pit copper project, with potential for added copper recovery through heap leaching processes.
Characteristics of the Haib Deposit
The mineralization at Haib is characteristic of a porphyry copper deposit, making it a rare example on a global scale, particularly within southern Africa. The deposit’s advanced age has subjected it to varied metamorphic and deformation events; nevertheless, it retains key mineralization and alteration features typical to such deposits. The primary mineral present is chalcopyrite, with lesser amounts of bornite and chalcocite found, along with only minimal secondary copper minerals due to the region's arid climate.
