VANCOUVER—March 1, 2019— KOPR Point Ventures Inc. (CSE: KOPR / OTC: NPEZF / FSE: 4NP) (“KOPR”or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the successful negotiation to acquire up to a 100% stake in Premium Exploration (USA), Inc., (“PEM USA”) a Nevada corporation. PEM USA is the owner of patented and unpatented mining claims located in Idaho County, Idaho near the town of Elk City.
Quoted by David Greenway:
“This acquisition allows KOPR to acquire an initial stake in the heart of the Ore Grande Shear Zone, on what many consider to be an exceptional under-explored American gold district. We believe that with past drilling results like 5.23 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 112.8 metres, including 34.22 g/t gold over 6.6 metres and 1.11 grams per tone over 111.25 meters will continue to validate our belief in continuity and potential of the Friday ore deposit. Keeping our initial stake at 20% allows us the ability to model and develop the asset with the guaranteed ability to increase our interest to 100% upon careful and meaningful consideration. I couldn’t be more pleased with the acquisition or the terms we have negotiated to our shareholders benefit!”
The details of the transaction are as follows:
KOPR may purchase 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of PEM USA from Premium Exploration, Inc., a British Columbia company, in consideration of US $160,000 and 3,000,000 common shares of KOPR (“Shares”), with the Shares subject to voluntary hold periods as follows:

- 1,800,000 shares shall be subject to a hold period of thirty-six months from issuance.
