(\"Eastfield\")(TSX-V: ETF) and Canadian Gold Hunter Corp. (\"CGH\")(TSX: CGH) are pleased to announce that results have been received from the recently completed drilling program on the Zymo copper-gold property 45 kilometres west of Smithers, BC. Four holes were drilled at the Hobbes Zone and one hole tested a showing in the FM Zone. All holes intersected mineralization.Three holes (ZY-09-13, 15, 16) drilled at the Hobbes zone were each 100 m step-outs to the west and resulted in extending the zone which now measures over 600 m in an east-west direction and remains open-ended. The most westerly hole, ZY-09-16 intersected the longest interval of mineralization to date indicating potential for extension to the west and south. Hole ZY-09-14 was a vertical hole drilled at the site of previously released holes ZY-08-9 (72.0 m of 0.72% copper and 0.54 g/t gold) and ZY-08-10 (57.0 m of 0.43% copper and 0.32 g/t gold) and confirmed that mineralization continues to greater depths at this location where a mineralized interval of 273 m was intersected. A summary of significant results is as follows:\nHOLE ID FROM (m) TO (m) INTERVAL (m)* Cu (%) Au (g/t) \nZY-09-13 3.0 428.0 425.0 0.15 0.09 \nincluding 255.0 381.0 126.0 0.20 0.15 \nZY-09-14 3.0 276.0 273.0 0.23 0.15 \nincluding 9.0 108.0 99.0 0.36 0.25 \nincluding 33.0 93.0 60.0 0.44 0.30 \nZY-09-15 33.0 441.0 408.0 0.21 0.11 \nincluding 87.0 153.0 66.0 0.33 0.20 \nincluding 297.0 318.0 21.0 0.31 0.18 \nZY-09-16 30.0 369.0 339.0 0.23 0.13 \nincluding 139.0 330.0 171.0 0.31 0.18 \nincluding 201.0 279.0 78.0 0.41 0.26 \nZY-09-17 9.0 42.0 33.0 0.13 0.11 \n(*Intervals are core lengths and true widths may be less than reported here.)The Zymo property is underlain by an alteration/sulphide system of over 8.0 km long and 2.0 km wide which hosts several mineralized targets including the Hobbes and FM. Fill-in soil geochemical sampling was carried out on the URC target which lies 1.5 km west of the Hobbes Zone and confirmed a 1.5 km long coincident copper-gold anomaly. This target is beyond the end of the geophysical grid and prospectin...
