INFIELD MINERALS ANNOUNCES MULTIPLE PRIORITY TARGET AREAS OUTLINED
BY GEOPHYSICS AT THE DESPERADO SILVER-GOLD PROPERTY IN NEVADA
November 3, 2021 – Vancouver, BC, Canada. Infield Minerals Corp. (TSX-V: INFD) (“Infield” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce encouraging results from its 2021 ground geophysical survey program
at its 100% owned Desperado property (“Desperado” or the “Property”) in Nevada.
Highlights
• Twelve high priority target areas selected among over 40 anomalous geophysical trends
• Results from the combined geophysical, geological and geochemical datasets point to the
potential for a sizeable mineralizing system at Desperado
• Follow-up field inspection will evaluate the suitability of trenching and/or drilling priority targets
As part of its 2021 exploration campaign, Infield commissioned TMC Geophysics to carry out ground
magnetic (“MAG”) and induced polarization (“ IP”) geophysical surveys at the Desperado property from
July 24 to October 4, 2021. The surveys consisted of 158 line-kilometers of MAG and 88 line-kilometers of
IP readings. The aim of the surveys was to outline promising geophysical polarizable anomalies that could
highlight mineralized bodies and structures which may represent interesting targets for follow up work.
MAG and IP geophysical techniques can be highly effective in exploring for epithermal style gold and silver
mineralization, thus were selected for application at Desperado. Mineralization may occur in association
with altered and silicified structures with or without the presence of sulphides. MAG surveys can help
identify these structures or potential shear zones, along with different rock units, by measuring the rock’s
natural magnetism a nd highlighting contrasts with host rocks. Coupled with MAG, IP can further help
distinguish different rock types and structures by measuring resistivity and is especially useful for the
detection of disseminated sulphide mineralization through measuring chargeability. The results of the
MAG and IP survey s have been interpreted in the context of an epithermal target model and previous
work conducted by Infield.
This in-depth interpretation of the 2021 MAG-IP survey results has led to the identification of more than
forty (40) anomalous IP trends across the Desperado property , several of which present high potential
targets (Figures 1, 2 and 3). Possible origins of the IP anomalies include alteration and silicification of rocks
along faults or shear zones with variable sulphide enrichment and/or a lithological nature. Twelve of the
anomalies have been prioritized for follow-up field investigation to evaluate the possibilities of testing
targets by drilling and /or trenching where the rocks are sub-outcropping. Figure 4 provides two cross-
section examples where targets are broad sub-outcropping bodies that have IP signatures indicative of
thick bands of altered rocks enriched in sulphides. These and other IP anomalies carrying similar signatures
present compelling exploration targets for epithermal gold and silver mineralization.
“A key takeaway from this campaign is how well the geophysical results corroborate and enhance the
previous encouraging findings ,” stated Evandra Nakano, President and CEO of Infield. Ms. Nakano
continued, “ With multiple datasets vectoring in the same direction, we believe we have the right
ingredients for a sizeable epithermal system at Desperado. We are encouraged by these results and look
forward to further refining prospective targets and advancing the Property toward a drill ready status.”

About Desperado
The Desperado property is located in Nye County within the Ellendale mining district, approximately 40
kilometres east of the historical Tonopah silver mining district and two kilometres south of Highway 6.
Desperado is readily accessed by a series of local dirt roads. It covers an area of 1 ,410 hectares (3,480
acres) and lies at an altitude of 1,830 metres (6,000 feet) in the foothills at the southern end of the Monitor
Range overlooking the Ralston Valley to the southwest. Gold and silver mineralization at Desperado
appear to be associated with silicified-sericitized rhyolite breccia and quartz veins proximal to a rhyolite-
andesite contact. Using modern exploration techniques and a systematic approach, Infield is advancing
Desperado toward a drill ready status.
