Monday, July 28, 2008Drilling Expands the North Lake Copper-Molybdenum Zone at Okeover, BC
Vancouver, BC, July 28, 2008 - Eastfield Resources Ltd. ("Eastfield") (TSX-V: ETF) is pleased to announce that Prophecy Resource Corp ("Prophecy") (TSX-V: PCY) has now received the final results of a drill program recently completed at the Okeover project located near the city of Powell River in south-western coastal British Columbia. In late 2006, N.C. Carter, PhD, P.Eng. completed a technical report on the Okeover Property pursuant to National Instrument 43-101 that estimated an inferred mineral resource of 86.8 million tonnes grading 0.31% copper and 0.014% MoS2 at a 0.20% copper cut-off grade. Prophecy plans to commission Dr. Carter to evaluate a revised North Lake resource later in the year.The most significant result of the current program was hole OK-08-03, which intersected 45.5 metres grading 0.33% copper and 0.003% molybdenum including 12 metres grading 0.41% copper and 0.001% molybdenum. This hole was drilled 90 metres to the south of the nearest hole in the North Lake resource area and indicates a potential for further southerly extension for the mineralized zone. The North Lake Zone is one of eight known areas of significant copper-molybdenum mineralization on the Okeover project which is located a short distance from a deep water Pacific Ocean port.A summary of significant drill results for the May-June 2008 programs are as follows:
