(TSXV: INTR) (OTCQB: IMTCF) ("Intrepid" or the "Company" ) is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Ken Brophy as President of the Company. Mr. Brophy previously served in senior executive roles with Intrepid and has remained actively involved with the Company as a technical and strategic advisor following his transition from executive management.

"Ken has remained closely involved with the Company as an advisor and brings deep familiarity with our team, our Arizona project portfolio and our long-term strategy. Ken was instrumental in the consolidation of our flagship Corral Copper Project ("Corral") in Arizona, and his relationships across our numerous stakeholder groups in the state are unmatched.

"Intrepid continues to take meaningful strides and has made significant progress recently, particularly at Corral Copper, and I'm excited to step back into an active role as the Company advances toward its next phase of exploration and development," said Mr. Brophy.
"With the strong technical team, active exploration programs and the financial flexibility to advance our priorities, I believe the Company is well-positioned to continue building momentum at Corral and across our broader Arizona portfolio."

Ken is an experienced executive with a successful track record of senior management, building and leading teams, along with many years of experience with indigenous, government and stakeholder relations. Mr. Brophy is also currently President and Director of Ram River Coal Corp., a private Canadian company with a steel-making coal project located in Alberta, Canada.
