General Copper Gold Corp. announce that it has commenced diamond drilling on its Topley Richfield property (the "Property"), located approximately 100 km southeast of Smithers, British Columbia in the Omineca Mining Division. The Property's location near the Township of Topley allows for year-round access for heavy equipment via the Granisle Highway off the Yellowhead Highway.

General Copper Gold has selected the drill targets on the basis of the deep seeing induced polarization ("IP") survey program completed and processed in 2021, undertaken in order to identify additional Au-Ag-Cu-Pb-Zn mineralization. The survey identified three high priority targets, all of which will be explored and evaluated for the first time. Modelling of target one indicates that it lies on strike to the Topley shaft mineralization.

Target two is a conductive feature west of the shaft that is unexplained and may relate to a large circular body. Target three is a linear anomaly southwest of shaft that has never been drill tested. Each target will be tested by 2-3 diamond drill hole determined on the initial visual results.

Samples for assay will be taken of prospective mineralization. This initial phase of the program is expected to be 2000 metres.
