[{"type":"text","content":"Infield Minerals Announces Exploration Results from the 2022 Desperado Drilling CampaignVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 9, 2022 / Infield Minerals Corp. (TSXV: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.Highlights1,517.9 metres of RC drilling completed across ten drill holes at Desperado in 2022Drilling 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 holesThe 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 targe...
