Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 13, 2026) - Canadian Copper Inc. (CSE: CCI) ("Canadian Copper" or the "Company") announces today that it has submitted its Environmental Impact Assessment ("EIA") registration document [1] for the Murray Brook Project to the New Brunswick Department of Environment and Local Government ("DELG"). Simon Quick, CEO of Canadian Copper, stated, "Today's EIA mine registration, a first in New Brunswick since 2013, officially starts the permitting review process for the Murray Brook and Caribou Complex development strategy. From a Canadian-domiciled mining perspective, we are one of the few near-term, critical mineral development projects that have a visible production horizon coupled with a strong balance sheet, and project financing.

Our objective is to make this EIA review process all-encompassing and ensure the restart scenario is well understood and supported locally." Terry Richardson, Chief of Pabineau First Nation, " We are excited in Pabineau First Nation to see mining return to our traditional territory. We see economic development in the region as an opportunity for economic reconciliation and as well creating economic growth in the Northern region of New Brunswick. We look forward to taking this journey with Canadian Copper." What to Expect from the EIA Review Process Following today's submission by Canadian Copper, the EIA registration document will be made available for public review and comment on the Government of New Brunswick website.

During this time, Indigenous communities, members of the public, and stakeholders will be invited to review project information and provide feedback to Canadian Copper and DELG. In parallel, DELG will coordinate an iterative review of the EIA registration document by a Technical Review Committee ("TRC"), made up of technical specialists from a variety of provincial and federal departments. Following an initial 30-day review period, the TRC may issue requests for additional project information, clarifications, or further technical studies, and other items.

Upon receipt of TRC information requests, the Company and its external support team will review and submit responses to the TRC accordingly. From a regulatory perspective, the TRC will respond to clarifications/answers submitted by the Company within a reoccurring 30-day interval basis. Following this iterative review process a decision regarding the EIA will be issued by DELG.
