Eastfield Resources Provides Indata Drill Campaign Update
Eastfield Resources Provides Indata Drill Campaign Update
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, August 12 , 2022 – Eastfield Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: ETF ) (US-OTC: ETFLF)
(Frankfurt: 35E) is pleased to provide a mid season update on progress at the Indata project being explored by Alpha
Copper Corp. (CSE: ALCU). Alpha Copper Corp. has an option to earn a 60% interest In the Indata Project from
Eastfield Resources Ltd. by paying $400,000 (cash and/or shares) and completing $2,000,000 in exploration expenditures
before June 20, 2023.
Indata is located approximately 220 kilometers northwest of the city of Prince George on the juncture of Quesnel Terrane
Rocks and Cache Creek Terrane rocks i n and around the Pinchi Fault Zone. The summer drill program currently
underway is oriented with a discovery objective look ing for three distinct target types ; porphyry copper gold
(molybdenum), vein gold and carbonate replacement (CRD) mineralization.
Alpha is undertaking a 5,000 -metre drill program to test multiple high level geophysical targets The first 2022 drill hole,
of this drilling campaign, IN-22-74 (Target ‘J’) started in volcanic mineralized rock then encountered felsic intrusive near
the end o f the hole (144 metres) where it intersected molybdenum mineralization (a classic characteristic of CRD
mineralized rock in limestone is an adjacent molybdenum mineralized porphyry body). Please find attached photo of
molybdenum mineralization in hole IN-22-74.

IN-22-75 and IN -22-76 were drilled as the project moved north to the Lake Copper Target. Hole IN -22-76 encountered
encouraging vein mineralization and both holes confirmed the extent of the intrusive entity which is receptive for
porphyry copper-gold mineralization. As seen on map insert (Figure 2).
Figure 2: 2022 Drill targets and IP Data
Diamond drill hole IN -22-80 is targeting an area near identified outcrops of mineralized areas with chalcopyrite
discovered in 2019 on the east side of Albert Lake which is approximately 100 metres west of the north -south oriented
geophysics induced polari zation (“IP”) line 1250E. The drill hole encountered strong chalcopyrite mineralization from
surface to 45 metres which is very encouraging since there is only limited IP coverage in this area. The Lake Copper
Target was discovered through an outcrop sampl e taken in 2019 which ran 0.48% copper and 0.11 g/t gold. We have
elected to continue drilling hole IN-22-80 past its originally targeted depth as the core visuals are very encouraging.
So far, the project has been very selective in its drilling to mainta in efficiency and resources as we move from target to
target. We anticipate this drilling campaign to last well into Q3 of 2022 with results coming in intermittently during the
course of the program.
