See IM Examples on using CopyOpacity...

I Quote...
It is vital that the source image does NOT have a matte channel.
That is the input is a mask without any alpha channel.
If it has an alpha channal that is what is copied, resulting in something like
a 'Dst_In' operation (though not as good as transparent areas could become opaque!)

If you plan to use an image with an alpha channal mask, use a proper Duff-Porter Alpah Composition method like 'Dst_In' instead.

I'll highlight the quoted section in IM examples. as it is so important.
