Exploration Permit Issued FOR Zymo Project
EXPLORATION PERMIT ISSUED FOR ZYMO PROJECT
Vancouver, B.C., December 11, 2024, Eastfield Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: ETF) (“Eastfield”) reports that, following an
eight-month review, an exploration permit has been issued for its 100% owned Zymo copper-gold porphyry project located
45 km west of the community of Smithers, British Columbia.
The Zymo copper-gold porphyry project encompasses 18,184 hectar es and includes a significant 8 km long by 2 km wide
strongly induced polarization anomaly defining a copper-gold po rphyry system containing several 1 km square (or more)
targets with extensive areas h aving chargeability responses gre ater than 20 mv/V. To date, Eastfield and former partners
have expended approximately $5 million exploring this project, including thirty-four drill holes (10,810 meters).
Mineralization occurs in porphyritic diorites and adjacent sediments in zones of strong potassic alteration. Two of the more
notable zones discovered to date are named the Hobbes and FM Zones (five zones in total now discovered). Mineralization
is surrounded by extensive areas of phyllic alteration which in turn is surrounded with a much larger area of chlorite and
iron carbonate alteration suggesting unknown additional zones are probable, both latterly and at depth.
Results to date include drill holes
• ZY08-09 with 0.72% copper and 0.66 g/t gold over 72 meters,
• ZY08-10 with 0.31% copper and 0.21 g/t Au over 159 meters, and
• ZY11-20 with 0.28% copper and 0.34 g/t gold over 126 m.
Peripheral precious metal veins have returned up to 10.78 g/t gold with several percent lead and zinc.
Topography is generally flat to undulating covered with a variable depth of overburden (generally not deep). Logging roads
and clear-cuts now extend to the northeast side of the property.
In 2024 the claim group was expanded by 5,455 hectares to cover additional airborne geophysical targets and an area
underlain by the prospective Q uock Group of the Hazelton Format ion which is host to the world class Eskay Creek high-
grade gold-silver mine. Initial fieldwork to evaluate targets on the new claims was initiated in September 2024. The permit,
which is valid until March 30, 2030, authorizes 50 drill sites and 50 km of geophysical surveying.
