RENO, Nev., Oct. 25, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Infrastructure Materials Corp. (the "Company") (OTCBB: IFAM ) (TSX-V: IFM ) is announcing its decision to suspend a two-phase 5,000 foot reverse circulation drill program at the Company's Clay Peters Project in Nevada (the "Project") after the completion of the first phase for a total of 3,000 feet. The Company designed the drill program to include two phases, with a short midpoint break to analyze drill results. After completing this analysis, the Company concluded that the current drill program should be halted for lack of favorable results. The Project consists of 263 mineral claims located in Mineral County, Nevada, approximately 11 miles northeast of the town of Mina.
The two-phase drill program was designed to intercept what was believed to be a copper porphyry system at depth located south of previous drilling efforts on the Project. The first phase of the drill program included four holes focusing on recently identified geophysical targets. The Company planned to use the results of the first phase to determine follow up or offset drilling targets for the second phase. Four holes (CPR-20 through 23) were drilled with no significant copper, gold, or silver analytical results. Further, drilling encountered unexpected geological features that, on a preliminary basis, explain the geophysical targets explored. The Company believes that by using the recent results it is possible to better prioritize the numerous targets on the Project. The Company is currently reviewing all data before resuming the drill program in the spring, subject to available funds.
