Troymet Updates Key Project
=======================================================================
January 25, 2010 - Troymet Exploration Corp. (TSXV:TYE) ("Troymet" or
the "Company") is pleased to update the status of its Key project in
British Columbia. Troymet holds a 100% interest in the 7,882-hectare
Key property located 125 km southwest of Vanderhoof, British Columbia.
The Key project is prospective for epithermal gold-silver deposits as
well as volcanic massive sulphide (VMS) deposits.
The property, which straddles an apparent graben developed in a
volcano-sedimentary sequence, covers an area with anomalous lake
sediment geochemistry and locally anomalous
gold-lead-arsenic-silver-zinc in soils. Major north-trending faults cut
the property and these may be related to the gold and silver
mineralization currently being explored by Richfield Ventures Corp. on
its Blackwater property, some 2.5 km to the north (see Richfield
website). The 3T's project (Silver Quest Resources) to the southwest is
described as a bonanza-style, epithermal gold-silver camp.
Richfield, in its September 25, 2009 news release, describes the
mineralization on the Blackwater property as a bulk gold deposit with
demonstrated continuity over hundreds of metres at potentially mineable
grades. The gold mineralization is hosted in highly siliceous and
argillically altered breccia and microbreccia derived from felsic
volcanic or subvolcanic rocks. Richfield estimates the brecciated rocks
which host the gold mineralization may cover an area of up to 45
hectares and are generally between 100 to 200 metres thick.
A 2008 VTEM survey of the Key project clearly delineated the fault
systems which may be associated with gold-silver mineralization on the
Blackwater property. The survey also identified four priority targets
for follow-up that are considered potential structurally-controlled
sulphide-alteration zones.
The Key project is strategically located and the Company believes this
geenfield area offers the potential for both precious metals and VMS
discoveries. The Company plans a 2010 summer field program to advance
the project.
