Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 23, 2021) -  CAVU Mining Corp. (CSE: CAVU) ("CAVU" or the "Company") is pleased to announce an overview on its Kitimat Copper-Gold Project ("Kitimat Project"). On December 7, 2020, CAVU entered into an option agreement with Pacific Empire Minerals Corp. (TSXV:PEMC) to earn up to a 100% interest in the 3,070-hectare, Kitimat Project located roughly 20km northwest of the port town of Kitimat, British Columbia.

Kitimat Project Highlights:

  • Over 6,000 meters of drilling completed
  • Road accessible single continuous claim block of 3,070 hectare
  • 20 km northwest of Kitimat, British Columbia
  • Within 10 km of power, road, rail, and deep-water port access

Kitimat Project Historical Drilling Results1:

  • 94.06m @ 0.52% Cu and 1.12 g/t Au from 18.75m to 112.80m (DDH J-2010-1)
  • 105.85m @ 0.60% Cu and 1.15 g/t Au from 21.34 to 126.22m (DDH J-2010-7)

The Kitimat Property is prospective for porphyry, epithermal and VMS mineralization and has been explored intermittently since the 1960s. The project has been drilled numerous times, however the most promising targets have not been tested.

Dr. Jaap Verbaas, CEO comments: "The Kitimat Property is an excellent asset for CAVU Mining corp. and its technical team. CAVU will focus on two large targets of which the core is unexposed. The Jeannette target consists of a magnetic high surrounded by a magnetic low with a drilled showing on the edge of the target. The showing has yielded up to 105.85m at 0.60% Cu and 1.15 g/t Au and indicates a significant amount of metals in the hydrothermal system. The Bowbyes target is a molybdenum and copper anomaly which overlies altered volcanic rocks."

Historical geophysics will be reprocessed and reviewed in the immediate future. The review will form the basis of extensions and increased geophysical coverage over both the Bowbyes and the Jeannette targets. Notably the Bowbyes target is not covered by any historic geophysical surveys, giving CAVU a clear path forward to improve the target before an initial drill test.

CAVU Mining corp. entered into an option agreement for 100% interest in the Kitimat Property with Pacific Empire Minerals Corp. (PEMC), a copper project generator, which may be acquired for total cash payments of $390,000 and share payments of 1,325,000 common shares to PEMC as well as a 2% NSR of which 1% can be bought back for $1M.
