(TSXV:INFI) (\"Infinitum\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to report results from trenching completed at the newly discovered showing at Las Trancas zone at La Adelita project in Sonora and Sinaloa states in Mexico. Trench 2 returned a true thickness of 9.15 metres (m) averaging 16.45 grams per tonne (g/t) gold, 1.90% copper and 3.50 g/t silver (See Table 1). A total of 12 trenches were excavated in the area and revealed many sub-parallel structures within a large fault zone, surrounded by an alteration halo that is at least 200 metres wide extending in a north-south direction (See Figures 1 & 2).La Adelita Highlights:High-grade, copper-silver-gold project in MexicoThree new discoveries of high-grade mineralization were made in the early part of the current programTrenching revealed high-grade gold in new zoneGeophysical survey completed - interpretation pending9,000 metre diamond drilling program underwayLess than 7,300 metres of historical drillingAdjacent to the closed Alamo Dorado MineThe Company recently announced the discovery of three new zones of high-grade copper-silver-gold mineralization at La Adelita (See News Release March 16, 2022). One of the three discovery areas is at Las Trancas zone. The presence of high-grade copper mineralization within a strongly hematite-quartz-sericite altered area of metasedimentary rocks was previously known further to the north within the Las Trancas zone. This new discovery area is about 350 m to the south and appears to be part of a strongly altered, north-south corridor surrounding a large fault zone. Now that high-grade mineralization has been identified in the area, the geological team will concentrate on identifying the controls on mineralization.Figure 1Las TrancasThe three planned lines of magneto-telluric survey are complete in the Las Trancas zone, and the interpreted results are pending. The results of the survey will help guide the next phase of exploration at Las Trancas. Another feature that the exploration team is using to help guide work in the area is the Sangre del Toro (English translation is \"blood of the bull\") alteration. The weathered rock associated with this alteratio...
