Beaufield
Resources Inc., (TSX VENTURE: BFD), A 3,411
metre diamond drill program was completed
on the 100% owned historical Tortigny base
metal deposit (copper, zinc, silver and
gold) The Tortigny deposit previously drilled
by Noranda has not been the subject of
a 43-101 report nor has the previous drilling
been examined by a Beaufield geologist
nor an independent Qualified Person (NR
January 22, 2008). Tortigny has all weather
road access and is located 100 kilometres
north of Chibougamau, Qu,bec. Samples were
deposited at the laboratory for assay on
February 9th and assay results are expected
in 5 to 8 weeks.
The objective of the drilling
was to define and expand the existing
resource. Six diamond drill holes (2,610
metres) were conducted with the intention
of increasing the known mineralization
and two holes (801 metres) were drilled
to obtain a better definition of the deposit.
Some
mineralization was observed in varying
widths in 7 of the 8 holes. In hole TO-08-05,
14 metres of massive sulphides, within
the existing deposit, were intersected.
No reliable estimate of grade can be
made from a visual observation. The drill
program was supervised and logged by David
Rivard P. Geo.
