Drilling Permit Received For Upcoming Campaign At Desperado

VANCOUVER - Infield Minerals Corp. has received a Notice of Intent ("NOI") permit from the Bureau of Land Management for drilling at the Desperado property in Nevada. The Company has retained the services of Midnight Sun Drilling for the upcoming campaign, which is expected to commence next month. Construction of access roads and drill pads are planned to proceed imminently in preparation for drill mobilization.

The 2022 campaign represents the first drilling at the Property in recent decades and is planned to test eight to ten priority targets outlined through systematic exploration. The program consists of approximately 2,000 meters of RC drilling from up to eight permitted drill sites. Priority targets include buried lithological contacts and structural features identified using modern exploration techniques.

"Over the past year, we have progressed the Desperado project from an early stage prospect to a drill ready status. Our systematic exploration process has identified multiple anomalous trends that are prospective for gold and silver, and we are extremely excited to drill test them," stated Evandra Nakano, President and CEO. "Several of our prospective targets are under cover, providing opportunities for discovery in areas overlooked by historical miners."

The Property hosts a large clay alteration footprint covering an area of over 6 km by 4 km, suggesting that a sizeable hydrothermal system existed during mineral emplacement. The clay alteration was detected using an Aster image spectral interpretation, and the prospective ground was further investigated during subsequent field visits in 2021. Sixty rock grab samples were collected and evaluated using a Terraspec Spectrometer, which confirmed the presence of hydrothermal clay minerals such as illite, alunite, kaolinite and minor dickite. The clay altered rocks underlying the Property host several illite-kaolinite associations typical of the low sulphidation epithermal environments common in the nearby Tonopah area and along the Walker Lane trend of Nevada. Significant potential exists across the Property given the productive host environment and scale.
