Infrastructure Materials Corp. (OTCBB:IFAM) (TSX-V:IFM) (TSX-V:IFM.s) (the "Company") reports that its joint venture partner for the Nivloc Mine Project (the "Project") released assay results from three additional diamond drill holes at the Project. International Millennium Mining Inc. ("IMMI"), the Company's joint venture partner and a wholly-owned subsidiary of International Millennium Mining Corp. (TSX-V:IMI), is continuing its exploratory drilling at the Project under an option agreement with the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Silver Reserve Corp.

The results announced by IMMI are from holes drilled on the Nivloc Property, holes 11NL-23 through 11NL-25, all intersected zones with greater than 137 grams/tonne (g/t) silver (see drill highlights and table below). These holes were drilled from pad 2 near the center of the zone and were designed to test previously undrilled portions of the deposit below the old workings. The IMMI drilling program at Nivloc continues to expand the mineralized zone, which remains open at depth and along strike to both the northeast and southwest directions.

Drill holes 11NL-23 to 11NL-25 intersected 261 g/t to 449 g/t lenses, enclosed by zones of lower grade material. Highlights include:

Drill Highlights from hole 11NL-23: 64.0 feet @ 124.4 g/t Ag and 0.69 g/t Au – Main Nivloc vein, including: 5.0 feet @ 449 g/t Ag and 1.84 g/t Au - Main Nivloc vein

Drill Highlights from hole 11NL-24: 40.5 feet @ 134.0 g/t Ag and 1.89 g/t Au – Main Nivloc vein, including: 12.0 feet @ 267.1 g/t Ag and 2.79 g/t Au - Main Nivloc vein

Drill Highlights from hole 11NL-25: 104.7 feet @ 129.0 g/t Ag and 0.85 g/t Au – Main Nivloc vein, including: 5.0 feet @ 353.0 g/t Ag and 3.97 g/t Au - Main Nivloc vein 4.0 feet @ 318.0 g/t Ag and 1.22 g/t Au - Main Nivloc vein 9.0 feet @ 260.9 g/t Ag and 2.19 g/t Au - Main Nivloc vein

Drill hole 11NL-23 intersected the Nivloc vein system between the 440 foot and 600 foot levels, in the eastern portion of the target area immediately west of the old workings.  Holes 11NL-24 and 11NL-25 were located beneath the old workings between the 600 foot and 700 foot levels (11NL-24) and between the 700 foot and 800 foot levels (11NL-25).  The level numbers referred to above are deemed to be approximate.

All three holes also intersected a mineralized quartz vein zone in the rocks that overlie the Main Nivloc Vein structure. This zone is thought to be oblique to the Nivloc Structure and has not been previously exploited by mining activities.    Drill Hole Results

As noted above, the drilling program is focused on a target area that lies between previously mined zones within the northeast-southwest-trending Nivloc vein structure. The exploration target lies between the surface and the existing 800-foot level drift in the old mine workings. The 800 foot mine level is approximately 900 feet vertically below surface, and the vein and workings dip from minus-45 to minus-65 degrees toward the northwest. Previous mining at Nivloc focused on higher-grade lenses of ore that were encountered while drifting along the vein structure. The IMMI drilling program indicates the Nivloc structure ranges from 50 to more than 150 feet wide and contains several parallel vein zones. It appears from available data that only one of these parallel vein zones was exploited by prior mining activity. In addition to the potential for higher-grade lenses similar to those that were mined historically, the material between the lenses is consistently mineralized to some degree.

It is stressed that no tonnage or grade estimates have been calculated to date. The current drilling program is designed to generate enough reliable information to outline viable mineralized zones that can be converted to resources in compliance with Canadian National Instrument (NI) 43-101 standards.

The drill assay intervals were calculated using the weighted average method. Drill core assaying was conducted by ALS Chemex, which is an ISO-certified laboratory. IMMI reports that it has implemented a quality assurance and quality control program to ensure that sampling and analysis of all samples are conducted in accordance with the best possible practices. The system includes the use of standards, blanks and duplicates to ensure analytical accuracy and the submission of duplicate samples to a second laboratory to verify the integrity of the analytical results.

Thomas L. Evans, California Professional Geologist, a qualified person under NI 43-101, reviewed and approved the technical disclosure of this press release.

Infrastructure Materials Corp. is a Reno, Nevada based exploration stage mining company that is directing its efforts to the exploration and development, if warranted, of cement grade limestone deposits in strategic locations in the United States and Canada and precious metal properties located in Nevada.
