(TSXV:INFI) (\"Infinitum\" or \"we\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the discovery of new zones of high-grade copper mineralization at La Adelita project, located in Sonora and Sinaloa States, Mexico. A mapping, prospecting and surface sampling program conducted from October 2021 to January 2022 has identified three zones of significant copper, silver, gold and zinc mineralization at Cerro Grande Footwall, Las Trancas and Pericos zones (see Figure 1). A total of 27 grab and 1,024 channel samples were gathered from bedrock during this initial phase of the exploration program.Figure 1. Plan ViewCerro Grande Footwall zoneA newly discovered horizon of skarn-hosted mineralization has been identified, subparallel to the previously known Cerro Grande zone. The Cerro Grande Footwall zone (see Figure 2) is very similar to the previously known horizon with strong garnet skarn alteration within a recrystallized limestone, although initial samples indicate the mineralization to have a higher zinc content than the main Cerro Grande zone. Sampling and mapping show the horizon to be 7.50 meters wide, although the full extent of the zone has not yet been determined due to limited exposure in the area. The steep hillside is not accessible to mechanized means of excavation, so only hand excavation has been employed thus far to extend the exposure. Both the hanging wall and footwall limits of the zone are covered by soil and talus. The Cerro Grande Footwall zone lies approximately 45 metres stratigraphically below the Cerro Grande zone. Channel sampling in bedrock returned 7.50 meters (m) grading 1.88% copper (Cu), 0.89 grams per tonnes (g/t) gold (Au), 127.5 g/t silver (Ag) and 0.92% zinc (Zn). Another outcrop that corresponds to this new Cerro Grande Footwall zone was identified 150 m further south and returned 1.50 m grading 1.91% Cu, 0.78 g/t Au and 133 g/t Ag. Historical diamond drilling at Cerro Grande zone had never intersected the Cerro Grande Footwall zone due to the drill hole collar positioning and orientation. Upcoming drilling in the 2022 program ...
