Troymet Identifies Possible Gold-Related Diatremes on Key Project

September 16, 2010 - Troymet Exploration Corp. (TSXV:TYE) (“Troymet” or the “Company”) is pleased to update progress on its 100% owned, 7,882-hectare Key property, which is located 125 km southwest of Vanderhoof, British Columbia.

Three possible diatremes (breccia pipes?) have been identified which may be related to several of the structurally controlled, precious metal target areas the Company has identified (see News Release of September 8, 2010). Four areas of elevated to anomalous gold ± silver ± zinc values occur in this area, along with significant alteration (garnet alteration, magnetite veining and silicification) in the volcanics that cap the interpreted intrusive. The diatremes (?) are overburden covered and are located within an area of low magnetic signature, measuring approximately 130 hectares (320 acres; see Key - diatremes/breccia pipes).

Diatremes and breccia pipes are a common host for gold-silver mineralization, and have been mentioned in connection with the Blackwater bulk gold target (see Richfield Ventures Corp.’s web site). These may be an important target on the Key project.

The Company is planning further exploration, which will include diamond drilling once permits are received. Future work will likely include induced polarization (IP) geophysical surveying and till sampling. The property is readily accessible along a well developed network of established forestry roads.

Tracy Hurley, P.Geo., Vice President, Exploration and qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 is responsible for the technical information provided in this release.
