NORTHWEST COPPER ANNOUNCES RELEASE OF ANNUAL ESG REPORT

Northwest Copper Corp. has released its second annual environmental, social and governance report for the period ended Dec. 31, 2022.

The 2022 ESG Report highlights the Company's continued efforts to implement ESG best-practices and demonstrates the Company's commitment to ethical and transparent mineral exploration and project advancement. The tracking, evaluating, and reporting of the Company's ESG practices is a key component of Northwest's long-term corporate strategy.

"Since the Company was formed in 2021, we have focused on refining our approach to mineral exploration. We are working collaboratively with Indigenous leadership and communities and improving our environmental management and cultural understanding," said Vesta Filipchuk, Vice President Sustainability. "While we are still early in our journey, we are committed to continual improvement and to changing the face of and approach to mineral exploration."

"ESG is important for Northwest Copper moving forward." said Tyler Caswell, Vice President Exploration. "It promotes responsible, sustainable, and transparent practices during mineral exploration and throughout the more advanced stages of the projects. This will enhance long-term value for local communities and stakeholders. An example of this change is the use of wildlife management and mitigations protocols created in partnership with registered professional biologists and Indigenous communities that meet or exceed industry best practices."

"Northwest Copper's new Board of Directors is pleased to see that the Company has prioritized ESG reporting in its first years of operations," said Maryantonett Flumian. "Strong companies and successful projects are built on a sound foundation of ESG practices and initiatives."
