Troymet Commences Exploration Program at Golden Eagle Project
September 10, 2009 - Troymet Exploration Corp. (TSXV:TYE) (“Troymet” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that exploration crews have mobilized to the Golden Eagle project in northern British Columbia. Golden Eagle lies at the southern end of the Tintina Gold Belt, which contains many intrusion-related gold deposits such as Pogo (Alaska), Fort Knox (Alaska) and Dublin Gulch (Yukon). The recent discoveries on the White Gold property (Yukon) by Underworld Resources Inc. also occur within the Tintina Belt.Potentially high impact drill targets were identified in the recently completed reinterpretation of the technical data for the north block of the Golden Eagle project (“North prospect”), where a granite-related gold system has been partly unroofed. The current field program is designed to give better definition to these targets and to identify additional drill targets for immediate follow up.
Numerous zones of structurally controlled gold-silver-arsenic-antimony mineralization and gold-in-soil anomalies occur over an area of ~5 x 5 kilometres. The mineralization and the anomalies are related to two major structures, the Ben Fault and the Paddy Fault, and to the underlying granite-related gold system. The Ben Fault is a minimum of 3.6 kilometres in length and has never been drilled. The Paddy Fault is a minimum of 4.6 kilometres in length and has not been drilled apart from limited drilling (~250 metres) on the Skarn zone. This drilling intercepted significant gold mineralization but it did not test the underlying granite contact.
The North prospect contains an impressive number of undrilled, structurally controlled gold showings. The Company believes this area may host one or more bulk-tonnage gold deposit(s).
Troymet is a junior exploration company with precious and base metal projects located in British Columbia and Manitoba, Canada. The Company is actively seeking partners to advance its highly prospective properties and continues to seek new projects with high-value and large-tonnage potential to add to its portfolio.
