Troymet Plans to Drill the Mac Target at McClarty Lake

November 6, 2009 - Troymet Exploration Corp. (TSXV:TYE) (“Troymet” or the “Company”) is pleased to update progress on its McClarty Lake project, located near Snow Lake, Manitoba. The project is located approximately 45 km south of the HudBay Minerals’ Chisel Lake and Lalor Lake VMS deposits. The McClarty Lake property comprises three claims owned 100% by Troymet and two claims owned 60% by Troymet and 40% by Hudson Bay Exploration and Development (HudBay) (“option claims”). Troymet identified a gold-rich volcanic massive sulphide (VMS) system, the Discovery zone, on the option claims in 2007, and HudBay is currently earning an additional 20% interest in those claims from Troymet. The Company anticipates that HudBay will conduct a 2010 winter diamond drilling program on the Discovery zone.

On its 100% owned properties, Troymet plans a 2010 winter drill program (~1500 metres) to evaluate the Mac EM conductor, which is on-trend with the Discovery zone VMS mineralization (see Mac EM target here). The Mac conductor was identified by a 2008 VTEM helicopter-borne survey which offers deeper penetration compared with traditional airborne EM survey systems. The Mac conductor, as with the Discovery zone, may not have been detected by earlier surveys because it lies at a greater depth. There is no record of prior drilling in this area. The undrilled Mac conductor is a high priority target with the potential to host significant VMS mineralization.

In addition to the Mac conductor, the 2008 VTEM survey identified two EM conductors at the Discovery zone, one of which remains untested. This is a priority target. The presence and location of these conductors underscores the potential for additional significant VMS discoveries both in and between the Mac target and the Discovery zone. The better intersections in the Discovery zone (News Release April 9, 2008) are:

• 43.05 m @ 0.38 g/t Au; 6.53 g/t Ag; 0.31% Cu & 1.47% Zn incl. 15.3 m of 3.46% Zn
• 47.06 m @ 1.23 g/t Au; 5.13 g/t Ag, 0.35% Cu & 0.94% Zn incl. 9.18 m of 0.94 % Cu & 2.93 m of 5.44% Zn

The sulphide mineralization and associated alteration system at the Discovery zone is very similar to that associated with the Chisel Lake and Lalor VMS deposits.

Troymet’s 100% owned claims are strategically placed and the Company is very optimistic regarding the potential for additional significant VMS discoveries in this area. The Discovery zone is a greenfield discovery which was not detected or recognized by many airborne EM surveys. Troymet believes that the Mac conductor, which is on-trend with the Discovery zone, offers the potential for immediate and significant new discoveries on 100% owned Troymet ground.
