Joe Groot, CEO of Infinity commented:
“Infinity’s listing on ASX is a great milestone for the Company delivering the necessary funding to deliver value to our shareholders through extensive exploration and project development activities across our tenement packages in the Pilbara and Central Goldfields. Its very pleasing to have received such strong support from a broad range of both existing and new investors, as it provides the Company with the financial flexibility to get the drill rigs turning almost immediately. Infinity is an outstanding multicommodity play with exposure to a number of battery minerals including lithium, copper and nickel, as well as having an excellent hedge to gold.
Over the next few months our experienced technical and geological team will conduct an extensive exploration program in the Pilbara and Central Goldfields with our immediate activities focussing on validating the historic resources in the Central Goldfields. Additionally, our program includes an RC drilling campaign to test the high priority base metal targets generated from past ground and aerial geophysical surveys as well as more recent spectral analysis. With work on the ground ongoing, we anticipate reporting a steady stream of updates from early in Q1 2022.”
Joe Phillips, Executive Chairman of Infinity commented:
“It has been a long journey in seeking a successful listing of the two-tenement portfolios. Over this time the Pilbara Marble Bar region has been growing as key jurisdiction for gold, copper, base metals and battery metals and Infinity has a 711km[2] footprint to work within. The combination of the extensive geological work completed to date, and the expected results of the September 2021 campaigns are all pointing to 2022 holding big things for Infinity Mining.
I would like to welcome all the new Board members and especially Joe Groot, Chief Executive Officer and Alec Pointon, General Manager, WA Projects who have had a very active year in drawing together the recent exploration campaigns in the Pilbara and all of the site preparation at the Great Northern in readiness for the early January 2022 drilling program. Finally, I would like to praise the efforts of CPS Capital, led by Jason Peterson and his Corporate team. In today’s corporate world delivering on expectations is very rare but Jason’s team at CPS Capital went above and beyond.”
