Infield Minerals announces exploration results from the 2022 Desperado drilling campaign

September 9, 2022 – Vancouver, BC, Canada.  Infield Minerals Corp. (TSX-V: INFD) (“Infield” or the “Company”) announces exploration results from the 2022 drilling campaign at its 100% owned Desperado gold-silver property (“Desperado” or the “Property”) in Nevada. The Company commenced drilling in July and completed the program in August of 2022 for a total of 1,517.9 metres of reverse circulation (“RC”)drilling across ten drill holes. All assay results from the program have now been received by the Company.

Highlights

  • 1,517.9 metres of RC drilling completed across ten drill holes at Desperado in 2022
  • Drilling results returned 0.56 g/t gold and 2.6 g/t silver over 1.52 metres in hole DP22-09, and several additional anomalous 1.52-metre sample intervals above 0.1 g/t gold in other holes
  • The Company is focused on delivering value to our shareholders and continues to evaluate new opportunities

“The data obtained from the Desperado drilling campaign provides important information about the subsurface rocks, which can lead to a better understanding of the geological framework and exploration potential for the area,” stated Evandra Nakano, President and CEO of Infield. Ms. Nakano continued, “As a priority initiative, we continue to assess quality project opportunities that could augment our portfolio and benefit our shareholders. Infield offers a solid foundation for potential consolidation of exploration and development assets, including a positive cash position, strongly held insider ownership, and an experienced technical and management team.”

The 2022 Desperado drilling campaign was designed to test lithological contacts and structural features for epithermal style mineralization. Many of these features are obscured by desert gravel and were interpreted by Infield using geophysical techniques to “see” under cover. The ground magnetics (“Mag”) and induced polarization (“IP”) geophysical surveys completed by Infield in 2021 identified more than forty anomalous IP trends, from which a selection was prioritized for drill testing. Locations for the ten RC holes drilled by Infield at Desperado are shown in Figure 1.

Several of the selected targets exhibited chargeability highs within lithological contact zones. Drilling of these targets intersected wide zones of up to 20% disseminated pyrite within intensely clay altered rhyolite near contact zones with andesite, corresponding with the chargeability anomalies. Similarly, other targets tested on the property intersected structural features enriched in pyrite. Gold and silver in the area is known to occur in the types of rocks targeted in this campaign, however, only minor amounts of precious metals were returned from the RC rock chip samples that were submitted to the laboratory for analysis. Drill hole collar information is provided in Table 1 and a summary of drill hole intersections is presented in Table 2. Further review of the drilling data in context to the geological environment and additional studies would be required to better understand the potential of additional targets at Desperado.

The 522 RC rock chip samples collected by Infield in July and August, 2022, were prepared and analysed by American Assay Laboratories in Sparks, Nevada, for fire assays (Au-FA-PB30- ICP), Ag-Grav Ag30 and multi-element geochemical analysis (ICP-2AO36). American Assay Laboratories is an independent geochemical analytical testing laboratory which is ISO-17025 accredited by IAS.

The Company has an ongoing initiative of growing and delivering value through discovery, acquisitions and sustainable development of high quality, high potential assets. As such, Infield regularly evaluates exploration and development assets with a view of expanding and evolving our project portfolio.

The potential quantity and grade of mineralization described herein is conceptual in nature as there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in targets being delineated as a mineral resource.
