Kincora Copper Ltd. closes agreement with RareX

• Definitive agreement completed with Rarex Ltd. for New South Wales located copper-gold assets
• Kincora's portfolio in the Lachlan Fold Belt includes a district scale land package and industry leading proposition of copper-gold targets
• Near term drilling planned at the brownfield Trundle project
• Favorable year-end cash position of $3.5 million

Legal and technical due diligence and definitive agreements have been completed with RareX Limited ("RareX"), and consideration paid, as per the binding Memorandum of Understanding ("MoU") announced January 30^th, 2020.

Kincora has a controlling interest across a 1,732km² land position in the key belts of the Macquarie Arc, with confirmed strategic appeal and pipeline of targets being systematically advanced. This includes the flagship Trundle project, the only brownfield porphyry project held by a listed junior in the Lachlan Fold Belt, located less than 30km from the China Molybdenum Company (CMOC) operated Northparkes copper-gold mine, which has total endowment (past production and current resources) of over 20Moz gold-equivalent¹.

Sam Spring, President & CEO, commented: "Kincora is well positioned and funded for high impact, value add drilling at a number of the most compelling drill targets in Australia's foremost porphyry belt, a belt that has recently attractive considerable investment and positive re-rating of active exploration peers.

This will shortly commence at the brownfield Trundle project, which sits within the same system as Australia's second largest porphyry mine (Northparkes) with demonstrated similar and extensive mineralisation.

Details of the upcoming program are expected to be shortly announced and will focus on three known mineralized Northparkes porphyry targets, seeking to confirm the discovery of a new cluster of deposits".

About Kincora Copper Limited (KCC – TSXV)

Kincora is an active junior and systematic explorer seeking to make a major discovery in Mongolia, the Lachlan Fold Belt in Australia and other prospective complementary jurisdictions.

Our technical team is credited with multiple discoveries of Tier 1 copper assets and in June 2019 the Company completed an oversubscribed $6.25m offering supporting an aggressive drilling and program generation strategy.

In the third quarter of 2019, the Company made the strategic decision to opportunistically pursue entry into the Macquarie Arc, in Central West of New South Wales (NSW), Australia. This is Australia's foremost porphyry belt, home to the giant Cadia mine, the Northparkes mine and recent Boda discovery by Alkane Resources.

The Macquarie Arc is synergistic in line with Kincora's core focus. It offers: the same scale of target (world-class); the same commodity mix (copper-gold or gold-copper); the same mineralized setting (porphyry &/or epithermal gold); supports a similar systematic exploration approach/exploration methods; and, is a region where the team has had significant exploration success.
