TRU Acquires 100% Ownership of Altius’ Golden Rose Project

Toronto, Ontario – November 30, 2022 – TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has concurrently exercised three option agreements to acquire 100% ownership of the Company’s flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose” or the “Project”), as described below (Figure 1), located in the highly prospective Central Newfoundland Gold Belt.

TRU Co-Founder & CEO Joel Freudman commented, “Acquiring 100% ownership of Golden Rose earlier than initially contemplated or required is a testimony to our confidence that there is much more discovery potential to uncover. Since optioning the Project from TSX-listed Altius Minerals Corporation in May 2021, we have worked with determination and prudence as we tactically consolidated the most prospective claims within and surrounding Golden Rose, alongside exploring the Project. We are now the sole owners of this formidable land package, flanked on either side by deposit-bearing neighbours. We intend to expand TRU's pipeline of drill-ready targets across the Project through relatively low-cost, but high-upside, exploration methods, to ultimately prepare for what we are hopeful will be an exciting 2023 drill program.”

The Company has exercised the following option agreements:

Option Agreements with Altius and Shawn Rose

On May 12, 2021, TRU announced that it had closed a definitive option agreement with a subsidiary of TSX-listed Altius Minerals Corporation (“Altius”), by which Altius granted to TRU the exclusive right and option (the “Altius Option”) to acquire, subject to retention by Altius of a maximum 2.0% net smelter return royalty (“NSR”), its 100% interest in a package of mineral claims located in the southwestern portion of the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt (the “Altius Claims”).

In connection with the Altius Option, Altius also assigned to TRU a supplementary option agreement under which Shawn Rose granted TRU the exclusive right and option (the “Rose Option”) to acquire, subject to retention by Shawn Rose of a 2.0% NSR, his 100% interest in certain surrounding mineral claims known as the Rose Gold claims (the “Rose Claims”).

Collectively, the Altius Claims and the Rose Claims formed the initial basis of Golden Rose. The Company has subsequently more than doubled the size of Golden Rose through a series of other transactions.

TRU has now exercised the Altius Option as well as the accompanying Rose Option by issuing 1,400,000 common shares of TRU (“TRU Shares”) to Altius at a deemed price of $0.25 per share, and paying $37,500 in cash to Shawn Rose, pursuant to the terms of the respective option agreements. The Company previously satisfied all other terms of such agreements, including the requirement under the Altius Option to incur $3,000,000 of exploration expenditures prior to February 2024.

TRU Announces Visible Gold and High-Grade Gold Results from Rock Samples Collected in Mark’s Pond and Rich House Targets at Golden Rose

Mark’s Pond trench grab samples return assay results as high as 1,929 g/t Au

Toronto, Ontario – November 23, 2022 – TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce high-grade gold results from a recent rock (grab) sampling program conducted on the Company’s claims under option at its Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose”) in Central Newfoundland. The bedrock and float grab sample results are very encouraging and indicate the high-grade gold potential at the Company’s Mark’s Pond and Rich House targets located along the highly prospective Cape Ray-Valentine Lake Shear Zone.

Highlights

• Visible gold is evident in outcrop and in bedrock grab samples collected from a recently extended trench at Mark’s Pond. The grab samples were taken from a sheared volcaniclastic and graphitic unit containing a significant number of quartz-carbonate veins. Mapping and channel sampling within the trench have confirmed the presence of visible coarse- and fine-grained gold both within these quartz-carbonate veins and the surrounding wall rock along a newly discovered shear zone approximately 130 m northwest of the Mark’s Pond Gold Zone.

• Three bedrock grab samples collected from newly exposed outcrop in the Mark’s Pond trench have returned very high-grade gold assay results from total pulp metallics analysis (metallic screening) including weighted average total Au values of 1,929 g/t Au, 205.6 g/t Au, and 180.1 g/t Au (Table 1 and Figure 2).

• Four bedrock grab samples collected at the Rich House target along the northern shore of Victoria Lake returned weighted average total Au values between 4.3 and 16.8 g/t Au from metallic screening analysis (Table 1 and Figure 1).

• A series of channel samples have been collected in the recently excavated 275 m long trench at Mark’s Pond including a 23 m long easterly extension at the southern end of the trench along strike of the gold-bearing volcaniclastic and graphitic shear zone. Those assay results are pending from the laboratory.

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman commented:

“We are very encouraged by these grab sample results from the Mark’s Pond and the Rich House targets, which have revealed very impressive gold grades and suggest that substantial gold mineralization is present along this 4 to 5 km long structural trend north of Victoria Lake. Based on these grab sample results, we look forward to receiving the gold assay results from our channel sampling program, which should help us characterize the grade consistency and potential width of this newly discovered gold-bearing shear zone. This new data along with the expected results from the channel sampling program will assist us in prioritizing the Mark’s Pond and Rich House targets for our 2023 drilling program. We have been very deliberate in locking up this Golden Rose district scale land package, and early results from this field program confirm our strategy of building this out to be a turn-key project.”

Figure 1: Grab Sample Results at Mark’s Pond and Rich House Targets

Figure 2: Grab sample results within Mark’s Pond trench

Technical Summary

The Company recently completed its fall exploration program where it collected a number of soil, till, and rock (grab) samples from various locations in the Mark’s Pond and Rich House target areas, where historical exploration had identified several gold showings. Visible disseminated fine-grained and coarse-grained free gold was evident in panned soil and till samples, outcrops, and within several rock samples collected in the recently extended trench at Mark’s Pond. A total of 3 bedrock grab samples were collected from newly-exposed outcrops in the Mark’s Pond trench. A total of 5 bedrock grab samples were collected from outcrops at Rich House during recent prospecting to confirm historical gold results. Three float samples were also collected 575 m southeast of the Mark’s Pond Gold Zone and returned assay results between 1.0 to 8.5 g/t Au.

The grab sample assay results are shown in Figures 1 and 2 and summarized below in Table 1. The anomalously high-grade gold result received at Mark’s Pond (1,929 g/t Au) was returned from a 1.2 kg bedrock sample taken from a sheared volcaniclastic and graphitic unit with visible gold in the Mark’s Pond trench. The TRU geologist collected three clean bedrock grab samples at various locations within the trench prior to commencing channel sampling. TRU instructed Eastern Analytical Ltd. (“Eastern Analytical”) to complete a total pulp metallics analysis for each submitted sample due to the presence of coarse gold and the nugget effect potentially affecting a typical fire assay result. Because the screen metallic analysis for this sample returned an anomalously high gold value, Eastern Analytical completed several internal QAQC checks and reruns to verify the high-grade gold result was precise prior to its final release. Readers are cautioned that grab samples are selective by nature, and the gold values reported may not represent the true grade or style of mineralization at Mark’s Pond.

Table 1: Gold assay results from screen metallic analysis of grab samples at Mark’s Pond and Rich House targets

Note: Weighted average total gold assay results shown above were determined using Total Pulp Metallic analysis (metallic screening) to mitigate the nugget effect of coarse visible gold in the samples. Sample weights are shown in grams (g) and gold values are shown in grams per tonne (g/t). Numbers have been rounded.

Channel Sampling Program – Mark’s Pond Trench

TRU has collected a series of channel samples within the recently excavated 275 m long trench including a 23 m long easterly extension at the southern end of the trench along strike of the gold-bearing volcaniclastic and graphitic shear zone (Figure 2). The trench is located approximately 130 m north of the historically drilled Mark’s Pond Gold Zone. The Mark’s Pond trench was extended to the north to test a second, multiple line, east-west trending historical gold-in soil anomaly that had not been previously trenched or drilled. A high-resolution drone (UAV) imagery survey has been completed by Insite Surveys of Burgeo, NL over the entire trench also capturing the channel sampling locations. The drone imagery has been georeferenced for structural mapping purposes and to precisely locate the channel samples for geological modelling.  

The TRU channel sampling program included the insertion of QAQC materials (certified standards, blanks, and field duplicates) and the samples have been sent to Eastern Analytical in Springdale, NL for fire assay and ICP multi-element geochemistry analyses with results still pending. Any samples returning a fire assay result greater than 1 g/t Au will automatically trigger a total pulp metallics analysis of the sample to mitigate the presence of the nugget effect of coarse gold and to better characterize the coarse- and fine-grained gold fractions within these prominent gold bearing units.

Results from the channel sampling program at the Mark’s Pond trench will be released once all fire assay and metallic screening gold results have been received from Eastern Analytical.

Sampling, QAQC, and Analytical Procedures

All rock (grab) samples were either collected from outcrops (bedrock) or as float samples and put into sample bags with unique sample tags by TRU field staff. The exact location of the collected grab sample was taken using a handheld GPS unit and field notes were taken on lithology, structure, and mineralization. The grab samples were securely transported by TRU field staff to Eastern Analytical’s laboratory in Springdale, NL. Eastern Analytical is a commercial laboratory that is ISO/IEC 17025 accredited and independent of TRU. Eastern Analytical pulverized 1,000 grams of each sample to 95% < 89 μm. Samples are analyzed using fire assay (30g) with AA finish and an ICP-34, four acid digestion followed by ICP-OES analysis. All samples with visible gold or assaying above 1.00 g/t Au are further assayed using Total Pulp Metallic analysis (metallic screening) to mitigate the presence of the nugget effect of coarse gold.

Eastern Analytical Total Pulp Metallic Sieve Procedure: Crush entire sample to approximately 80% (-10 mesh). Total sample is pulverized to approximately 95% (-150 mesh) in 200-300g portions. Sieve all pulverized material through 150 mesh screen. The total (+150 mesh) fraction is all fire assayed as one sample and the weight recorded. The entire (-150 mesh) fraction is rolled to homogenize and stored in a plastic bag. The entire weight of the (-150 mesh) fraction is recorded. A 30g sample is fire assayed from the (-150 mesh) portion. The two fire assay results (+150 and -150 mesh) are calculated (with the total weight of the sample to provide a weighted average of the sample) and the weighted average Au result is reported.

The TRU exploration programs are designed to be consistent with mining industry best practices and the programs are supervised by Qualified Persons employing a QAQC program consistent with requirements under the CIM Mineral Exploration Best Practice Guidelines (2018) and National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”).

Cautionary Statements

Please note that soil, till, rock, and float samples are selective by nature, and values reported may not represent the true grade or style of mineralization at Golden Rose. Readers are cautioned that these potential grades are conceptual in nature; there has been insufficient exploration by the Company or its Qualified Person to define a mineral resource or deposit; and it is uncertain whether further exploration will result in these targets being delineated as a mineral resource.

The reader is cautioned that descriptions of mineralization and soil anomalies reported in this news release are preliminary and/or early-stage results. While these results are considered encouraging, there is no guarantee that they indicate significant mineralization will be intersected in future drilling programs completed by the Company.

Priority has been given to exploring highly prospective target areas based on both historical and recent exploration results and known geophysical anomalies. These areas include the Woods Lake gold zone (“Woods Lake”), Jacob’s Twin gold-copper-silver discovery area and the recently optioned Staghorn property (Figure 1).

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman commented: “We are pleased to be closing out the 2022 field season with additional work at Golden Rose. We have embarked on several cost-effective exploration initiatives, that allow us to protect TRU’s treasury and capitalization structure while advancing multiple targets across the project towards the drill-ready stage for a third round of drilling in 2023. We are fortunate to be adequately funded to complete this work, especially considering prevailing depressed market conditions.”

Figure 1: General location map indicating recent exploration activities at Golden Rose

Jacob’s Twin

• At the Jacob’s Twin target area, a comprehensive soil sampling program was conducted in early 2022. Soil samples were collected at a 25 metre (m) spacing along 100 m spaced lines. A coincident copper-gold soil anomaly was identified 750 m to 1.2 kilometres southwest of the recently announced Jacob’s Twin gold-copper-silver discovery (please refer to TRU news release dated September 22, 2022). Based on these findings, the Company decided to conduct an additional 50 m spaced infill soil sampling program to further delineate the newly identified copper-gold soil anomaly.

Woods Lake and surrounding area

• A total of 323 soil samples and 31 till samples were recently collected.

Mark’s Pond and Rich House

• Trenching and prospecting work has commenced on these claims, with an immediate focus on the Mark’s Pond gold zone (“Mark’s Pond”) and Rich House gold prospect (“Rich House”) (Figure 1).

• An historical trench at Mark’s Pond from 2020 is being re-opened and extended to complete channel, soil and till sampling.

• Prospecting and rock sampling were recently completed at Rich House, where historical grab samples returned up to 189.2 grams per ton (g/)t gold at the main mineral occurrence, and visible gold has been previously reported.

The assay results from all the exploration programs described above are still pending from various independent laboratories and will be released by the Company in due course.

TRU Opens Up New Copper-Gold-Silver Discovery at Golden Rose

Toronto, Ontario – September 22, 2022 – TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce assay results from a new drill discovery at its flagship Golden Rose Project in Central Newfoundland (“Golden Rose”). The 13-hole, 2,147.4 metre (“m”) drilling program focused on the Jacob’s Pond area, principally the Jacob’s Twin showing, one of the five grids property-wide where the Company recently completed an extensive IP Survey.

Highlights

• Drill intersection of multiple copper-gold-silver zones in altered conglomerate (table 1).

• Last hole to intersect the discovery, JP-22-13, returned high-grade copper and silver.

• Discovery remains open for expansion in multiple directions.

• 2022 soil sampling has defined a secondary promising target between 750m to 1.2 kilometres (“km”) southwest from the new discovery area.

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, commented: “It is always rewarding to drill under a newly discovered copper-gold bearing quartz-carbonate vein system and to upgrade it in drill core at depth. Our discovery hole, JP-22-10, and step-out hole, JP-22-13, confirms that we are in the early stage of defining an exciting new prospect with significant expansion potential. Additional step-out drilling will be required to start delineating shape, orientation and ultimately continuity of this new discovery.”

The Jacob’s Twin copper (“Cu”) -gold (“Au”) -silver (“Ag”) discovery contains multiple intervals of quartz-carbonate-sulphide veining (figures 1& 2).

The veining in hole JP-22-10 was discovered while drilling directly under a creek where a series of copper-gold bearing outcrops (see press release dated August 4, 2022) were found during 2022 summer exploration, with samples grading 1.10% to 4.19% Cu and 2.76 grams per tonne (g/t) Au. An upper mineralized zone in hole JP-22-10 from 129m to 142.3m was followed by a lower 22.6m zone from 178.4m to 201m down hole depth, containing quartz-carbonate veining and copper mineralization, the lower 3.0m interval of which assayed 1.03% Cu, 0.71g/t Au, and 24.95g/t Ag from 193.45m to 196.45m. Jacob’s Twin correlates with a high chargeability Alpha IP anomaly near the sheared contact with a flow banded rhyolite.

Follow-up drilling, in final hole JP-22-13, approximately 15m down dip of hole JP-22-10, also intersected a mineralized vein system between 187.5m-199.5m down hole depth (figure 2). The highlight of this zone assayed 1.10% Cu, 0.87 g/t Au, and 46.60 g/t Ag over 2.8m from 197 to 199.8m, including 1.14m at 2.19% Cu, 1.39g/t Au, and 108.3 g/t Ag from 198.66m to 199.8m.

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman added: “Drilling at Golden Rose continues to uncover the immense potential of this property, and we are barely scratching the surface. I am especially pleased with our intersect of high-grade copper, which is a critical mineral input in electric vehicles and a wide range of other ‘clean energy’ and industrial uses. With less than 7,000 metres drilled to date by TRU at Golden Rose, across two modest drill programs, we are already unveiling what we believe to be a polymetallic zone, in addition to the known gold zone elsewhere on the property. I want to acknowledge the efforts of our exploration executives, Barry Greene and Pearce Bradley, in securing the Jacob’s Pond area for TRU last year and advancing it to this new discovery zone. This is another step toward establishing that Golden Rose is geologically prospective and hosts multiple commodities, on a massive property package that has seen little to no exploration.”

Mr. Freudman continued: “Additionally, and of great significance to TRU, we are also excited that our neighbour Marathon Gold has publicly disclosed its intention to commence mine construction at the Valentine Gold Project in early 2023, becoming an operating mine producing gold by early 2025. We expect this will attract renewed interest to the Valentine Lake Shear Zone, as TRU continues to build a turnkey polymetallic project with a robust pipeline of drilling and exploration potential.”

The Company continues to await final assay results for some holes peripheral to the primary mineralized zones, which are not expected to return significant values of mineralization.

A second promising drill target is shaping up along the same structural trend approximately 750m to 1.2km to the southwest of the Jacob’s Twin target area (figure 1). This new target contains many highly anomalous Au and Cu soil anomalies in a tightly clustered grouping and along the same trend of anomalous IP chargeability. This area shows the potential for expansion of the mineralized system along a regional trend.

Drilling Quality Assurance/Quality Control (“QA/QC”)

All NQ core is geotechnically measured, logged and marked for sampling. The core is then cut by Company personnel, with half put into bags with unique sample tags for identification while the other half is retained for reference. CRM standards and blanks are inserted at regular intervals in the sample stream. The bags are sealed with a security tag and are then transported directly to the lab by TRU staff. Core samples are analyzed at either SGS in Burnaby B.C., or Eastern Analytical Ltd. (“Eastern Analytical”) of Springdale, NL.

Eastern Analytical is a commercial laboratory that is ISO/IEC 17025 accredited and independent of TRU. Eastern Analytical pulverized 1,000 grams of each sample to 95% < 89 μm. Samples are analyzed using fire assay (30g) with AA finish and an ICP-34, four acid digestion followed by ICP-OES analysis. All samples with visible gold or assaying above 1.00 g/t Au are further assayed using metallic screen to mitigate the presence of the nugget effect of coarse gold. Standards and blanks are inserted at defined intervals for QA/QC purposes by the Company as well as Eastern Analytical. True widths for reported intervals have yet to be determined.

SGS is a commercial laboratory that is independent of TRU. Rock and core samples are shipped to the SGS Grand Falls-Windsor Mobile Sample Prep facility where they are sorted, logged, weighed, dried at 105 C, crushed to 75% passing 2 mm, split to 250 g, and pulverized for 85% passing 75 microns. Pulps are shipped within the SGS lab network to SGS Burnaby, where they are typically tested by 30 g fire assay with AAS for gold, and aqua regia digest with ICP-AES for the 34 element package. Over limit analysis for Au is done with fire assay and gravimetric finish, and multi-elements by ore grade sodium peroxide fusion with ICP-AES.

Soil samples are sorted, logged, weighed, dried at 60 C and screened to 180 microns. Undersized material is shipped to SGS Burnaby, where samples are typically tested by 30 g fire assay with ICP-AES for gold and aqua regia digest with ICP-AES for the 34 element package.

SGS laboratories operate a Laboratory Information Management System (SLIM). The SLIM system includes method set up protocols (analytes, ranges, internal QC materials that include blanks, duplicates, replicates, and reference materials) as well as their frequency of insertion and tolerance requirements. Quality control is performed at the sample preparation stage to include % passing requirements at the crush and the pulverizing stages at set frequencies and QC samples are added to every batch of samples throughout the entire process at a frequency of ~10-15% and include preparation blanks, preparation duplicates, pulp replicates, method blanks and certified reference materials. SLIM is also used to monitor our internal processes for instruments, equipment, sample tracking, storage and reporting formats. SLIM uses a secure and complete audit trail to ensure traceability and confidentiality.

SGS Burnaby facility is accredited to the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 for various tests listed on their scope of accreditation at https://www.scc.ca/en/search/laboratories/sgs

The TRU exploration program design is consistent with industry best practices and the program is carried out by qualified persons employing a QA/QC program consistent with National Instrument 43-101.

TRU Announces 2,000 Metre Drill Program at the Jacob’s Pond area of the Golden Rose Project

Toronto, Ontario – August 4, 2022 – TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that an approximately 2,000 metre (m) diamond drill program is underway at the Company’s flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose’’) located in the Central Newfoundland gold belt. The drilling will focus on the Jacob’s Pond area, where the Company recently completed an extensive IP Survey to determine high-priority areas and targets.

Drilling has commenced with a plan to complete approximately 10-12 diamond drill holes. The two key target areas dubbed Jacob’s Main and Jacob’s Twin (Figure 1) will form the basis of this initial drilling. These areas have never been drilled before.

Drill Targets Rationale

• Mineralization can be directly correlated with the base of an extensive IP geophysical anomaly.

• Identification of approximately 75m section of creek bed containing numerous copper-gold (Cu-Au) bearing quartz veins and brittle fractures hosted by conglomerate. True thickness of the mineralized zone is estimated at approximately 15-20m based on intermittent outcrops.

• Summer 2022 grab sampling results include 6 out of 21 samples grading from 1.10% Cu to 4.19% Cu including one sample grading 3.42% Cu and 2.76 grams per tonne (g/t) Au. (Figure 2)

• Conglomerate host rocks also contain frequent secondary copper rich (malachite) blebs after primary chalcocite/bornite. Mineralization occurs within and near the sheared contact between conglomerate and rhyolite

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, commented: “We have been diligently completing geochemical, geological and geophysical surveys over the past year and now feel ready to test a number of these targets where our combined data is leading us. Given the location of these targets along the Cape Ray-Valentine Lake structural corridor, which hosts proven gold deposits on adjacent claims, we are delighted to have broken ground.”

Figure 1 – Two Key Target Drilling Areas – Jacob’s Main and Jacob’s Twin

Figure 2 – 2022 Jacob’s Twin IP Chargeability Anomaly and Rock Samples

About Jacob’s Pond

The Jacob’s Main and Jacob’s Twin areas contains numerous coincident geological/geochemical/geophysical anomalies over approximately four kilometers of extent, which forms part of the 20 km structural trend on the northwest side of Golden Rose. Only a small selection of these potential anomalies will be targeted during this drill campaign.

During TRU’s summer 2022 field program, while ground truthing a copper-gold-silver soil anomaly with coincident IP anomaly on the Jacob’s Twin area, TRU’s geological team was excited to identify a heavily mineralized section of a natural stream bed. This bedrock mineralized zone is located within 75m of the highest-grade sample collected by TRU in 2021. The 2021 sample of very angular quartz vein float material contains bornite and chalcocite and graded 14.3 g/t Au, 368.0 g/t silver (Ag), and 11.0% Cu. Additionally, several new occurrences of similar mineralized angular float material have been unearthed. The 75m section of creek bed contains several quartz vein swarms which contain variable thickness of vein material up to about 2m thickness. The veins, hosted by a polylithic conglomerate, contain brittle fractures that have been infilled by common copper minerals including bornite, chalcocite and chalcopyrite. Additionally, the sheared conglomerate contains highly flattened clasts, some of which appear to be sulphide clasts with malachite coating the dull grey sulphide. This sulphide is believed to be chalcocite. Samples have been selected for polished section for positive identification of minerals and to assist with understanding the timing of mineralization. Several drill holes are proposed to evaluate this mineralized zone, which plots on the base of a very strong IP anomaly that continues for many hundreds of metres. To date, bedrock sampling along trend/strike of this creek has uncovered copper mineralization associated with conglomerate over approximately 200m.

This drill program is anticipated to take approximately 4 weeks to complete, and results will be released in batches in the early fall.

TRU Signs Definitive Option Agreement for Consolidation of Final Contiguous Gold Property at Golden Rose Project

Toronto, Ontario – June 16, 2022 – TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has signed a definitive option agreement dated June 15, 2022 (the “Option Agreement”) with Quadro Resources Ltd. (“Quadro”), pursuant to which TRU has been granted the option to acquire up to an aggregate 65% ownership in Quadro’s Staghorn Project.

The Staghorn Project (the “Staghorn Project”) is a large claim package of 133 claim units in eight mineral licences covering 3,325 hectares (33.25 square kilometres (“km2”)) with a 12 km strike length of the auriferous Cape Ray Fault Zone. The Staghorn Project is comprised of two distinct groups of licenses which are immediately within and/or adjacent to TRU’s flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose”). Golden Rose is a regional-scale land package covering approximately 236 km2 in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt, including approximately 45 km of strike length along the deposit-bearing Cape Ray - Valentine Lake Shear Zone (the “CR-VL Shear Zone”).

Joel Freudman, Co-Founder and CEO of TRU commented: “This transaction is fundamental to TRU’s vision of consolidating Golden Rose. Upon completion, we will achieve TRU’s strategy of complete consolidation of the CR-VL Shear Zone, between our immediate neighbours Marathon Gold and Matador Mining, both of whom have significant gold deposits on their properties. Almost exactly one year ago on June 15, 2021, we unveiled our corporate strategy entitled TRU Vision 2021, where we outlined our intent to build shareholder value by exploring and developing and, when opportune, consolidating the CR-VL Shear Zone. I am therefore pleased with today’s announcement as we continue to work diligently and strategically to develop a turn-key gold and copper project.’’

TRU Provides Update on 2022 Exploration Program at Golden Rose Project

Toronto, Ontario – June 2, 2022 – TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on its 2022 exploration program, previously announced on March 22, 2022, ongoing at the Company’s flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose’’) located in the Central Newfoundland gold belt on the deposit-bearing Cape Ray-Valentine Lake Shear Zone.

Soil Sampling

The soil sampling program is designed to identify new gold mineralization and provide additional targets for TRU’s 2022 trenching and drilling programs at the developing Jacob’s Pond target area at Golden Rose. The Jacob’s Pond area is a target-rich corridor of low- to high-grade gold-copper-silver mineral occurrences which have strong IP geophysical anomalies and soil anomalies which extend over four kilometers.

The work is focusing on completing and infilling gaps in soils coverage over the two primary deep seated structural corridors that have been delineated over much of the strike length running through the property.

The program will collect about 3,000 samples, reduced from an initial 10,000 to reallocate funds to drilling. Approximately 1,000 of the samples will be conducted over the Jacob’s Pond-Bear Pond structural corridor by extending grid lines from the 2021 soil sampling program to close off and fully define a multi-element (copper-lead-zinc-gold-silver) soil anomaly. The results of these samples will be incorporated into the upcoming Jacob’s Pond drill program.

TRU VP of Property Development and Director Barry Greene commented: “The Jacob’s Pond corridor of the Golden Rose property contains most, if not all, of the ingredients normally found in advanced orogenic gold prospects and deposits. I have seldom been as enthusiastic about an exploration project.”

The remaining approximately 2,000 samples will be done over the numerous known gold bedrock showings on which minimal previous geochemical or ground geophysical coverage is available, and which are located on primary, secondary or tertiary order structures which emanate from a crustal scale shear zone. Of particular interest in the southwest are the Glimmer Pond, Mink Pond and Falls Zone gold showings, which display a combination of quartz veining and/or regional silicification. Historical prospecting in the Glimmer Pond area did identify a quartz rich float sample with visible gold with a grab sample which assayed 213.8 grams per tonne (g/t) gold.

Drilling

Drilling is anticipated to commence early in the third quarter and will focus on the Jacob’s Pond area. Approximately 10 drill holes are proposed consisting of 2,000 metres.  

Corporate Strategy

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman commented, “We expect this to be an exciting summer as we continue to advance Golden Rose. As TRU continues its evolution as a junior mineral explorer, we are evaluating a wider range of exploration and corporate opportunities and strategies consistent with our stated mission to build long-term shareholder value through prudent natural resource property development and transactions. The asymmetric exploration potential of Golden Rose, driven by the drill bit, remains TRU’s key value driver. To supplement our exploration plans and fortify our balance sheet, we also continue to assess corporate initiatives, such as monetizing non-core properties, that will support TRU’s efforts to generate revenues and cashflows through building a diversified portfolio of inflation-resistant natural resources assets.”

The Company also announces that, subject to regulatory approval, on June 1, 2022, it granted an aggregate of 4,560,000 incentive stock options (“Options”) to its employees and consultants in accordance with the Company's stock option plan. All such Options have an exercise price of $0.14 per share and a 3-year term. These grants are intended to foster long-term personnel retention as well as corporate and exploration performance. Of these Options an aggregate of 1,115,000 vested immediately; 2,230,000 vest in 12 months from grant date; and the remaining 1,215,000 vest only upon the achievement of a variety of specified corporate milestones.

TRU Releases 3D Model of IP Survey for Jacob’s Pond Target Area at Golden Rose Project

Toronto, Ontario – May 25, 2022 – TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce additional results of its Induced Polarization (“IP”) survey at the Company’s flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose”), further to its announcement of April 13, 2022. Golden Rose is located in the Central Newfoundland gold belt on the deposit-bearing Cape Ray-Valentine Lake Shear Zone.

TRU retained Simcoe Geoscience Limited (“Simcoe”) to deploy Simcoe’s next-generation wireless, high-definition Alpha IP technology to conduct a survey comprising 56 line kilometres (km) of wireless time domain IP on newly-defined plus underexplored historical gold exploration targets at Golden Rose. The results in this press release pertain to the developing Jacob’s Pond target area in the northeast of Golden Rose.

Highlights of IP Survey of Jacob’s Pond Include:

• Delineation of an open-ended 4-kilometer-long IP anomalous trend associated with copper-gold-silver-zinc-lead in soils, correlating with chalcopyrite in outcrop and in sheeted quartz veins along the Jacob’s Pond trend.

• 1.6-km-long IP anomaly correlating with the primary high-grade Jacob’s Pond and Rose Gold copper-gold-silver veins, significantly increasing the potential footprint of the mineralized zone.

• Drill target selection has commenced and permits for trenching and drilling at Jacob’s Pond are pending.

TRU VP of Property Development and Director Barry Greene commented: “Having confirmed that the Jacob’s Pond area hosts high-grade copper-gold-silver values in mineralized quartz vein networks at surface, our confidence level was further bolstered when a regional soil sampling survey produced a multi-kilometer anomalous trend in copper-gold-silver-zinc-lead that indicated a potential for much greater distribution to the mineralized system. Now that this 3D IP chargeability model coincides with the high-grade quartz veins and the anomalous soils, we are even more confident in the prospectivity of the Jacob’s Pond area, as we have three different exploration techniques that corroborate the same prospective targets. This IP model is the final layer of exploration data we needed to plan for a comprehensive and systematic trenching and drilling program in the summer and fall of 2022.”

The 3D IP model (Figure 1) shows the shape of the surface and subsurface regions which can hold an electric charge, referred to as an IP anomaly. This method, known as IP geophysics, is regularly used in gold exploration, where gold mineralization is associated with other metals in the ground which can hold an electric charge. The IP anomalies are represented as orange to pink-coloured regions, with hotter colours (pink) representing a stronger IP anomaly.

The existence of gold-bearing rock samples collected from IP anomalies that reach the surface, upgrades the exploration potential of the IP anomalies and provides some context as to the potential size of the overall target. Not all IP anomalies are prospective, therefore, collecting soil samples above multiple IP anomalies can further narrow down areas of interest. If soil is analyzed and is shown to contain gold, plus other metals (such as copper, lead, zinc and silver) (see Figure 2), and those soil samples are situated above areas that can hold an electric charge, then those areas are assigned higher rankings as prospective targets.

When several prospective targets are identified in this manner, exploration then moves to the trenching and drilling stage to define the geometry, grade and continuity of mineralized zones. Accordingly, drill target selection for TRU’s 2022 drill program has commenced.

Figure 1 – 3D model of IP Geophysics in Jacob’s Pond area with copper-gold-silver samples

Figure 2 – Copper, Zinc, Lead, Silver, Arsenic and Gold in Soils – Jacob’s Pond area

On May 23, 2022, the field component of the IP survey concluded following the completion of the east Woods Lake area covering the underexplored Sure Shot and Hill Top historic gold showings which contained grab samples of shear hosted quartz veins grading 2.9 grams per tonne (g/t) gold at Sure Shot and 25.8 g/t gold at Hill Top. The analysis and interpretation phase of the IP survey is ongoing.

2021 Drill Program – Final Results Update

The Company is also reporting that results from the final 6 holes of the 2021 drill program have been received; however, there are no additional gold assays of note. 

National Instrument 43-101 Disclaimers

Note that soil, rock and float samples are selective by nature, and values reported may not represent the true grade or style of mineralization at Golden Rose. Readers are cautioned that these potential grades are conceptual in nature; there has been insufficient exploration by the Company or its qualified person at Golden Rose to define a mineral resource or mineral reserve; and it is uncertain whether further exploration will result in these targets being delineated as a mineral resource or mineral reserve.

The reader is cautioned that descriptions of mineralization, soil anomalies and IP anomalies reported in this news release are preliminary and/or early-stage results. While these features are considered encouraging, there is no guarantee that these features will return significant gold and/or copper values when drilled.

TRU Releases Interim IP Survey Results Over Gold and Copper Showings

Toronto, Ontario – April 13, 2022 – TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce preliminary results of its Induced Polarization (”IP”) survey at the Company’s flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose”), further to its announcement of February 9, 2022.

TRU VP of Property Development and Director Barry Greene commented: “Since we first acquired Golden Rose in 2021, the Jacob’s Pond area stood out as being particularly prospective, requiring serious exploration attention. Prospector Shawn Rose did a good job of highlighting an anomalous trend from surface sampling over about 1 km as a starting point for TRU. In 2021 TRU expanded upon the surface sampling. Having now lived with the project for about a year, I believe that the IP data is firmly upgrading that trend in three dimensions, and the surface samples could be just the tip of the iceberg. We are pleased to have now developed many drill and trench targets over a 2 km stretch which will be our focus as the field season approaches.”

Highlights Include:

• The two Jacob’s Pond bedrock gold showings, including a three-meter-wide quartz vein breccia system, have been directly detected by the IP as high-resolution chargeability zones that are larger at depth. Bedrock mineralization grading 3.9 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 5.61 % copper in a grab sample appears to be directly associated with a large IP anomaly.

• A large and strong chargeability high located 900 metres southwest of the Jacob’s Pond gold showings occurs directly below a cluster of three angular high grade float samples. A 2021 grab sample of this material by TRU personnel assayed 14.3 g/t gold, 368.0 g/t silver and 11.0% copper. (See TRU press release dated November 24, 2021, for additional details.)

• The IP survey has now identified a continuous chargeability high, trending over approximately 2 km along strike, directly associated with a regional multi kilometer copper and gold soil anomaly. IP data has now been collected up to line 43 (see figure 1).

• The strong IP chargeability appears to broaden at depth and is continuing to the northeast approaching the Rose Gold bedrock showing, where historic grab sampling returned 20.3 g/t gold, 1.79% copper and 5.3 g/t silver in a grab sample from a hand trench.

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman added: “We are pleased that our extensive IP work is yielding such positive results and delineating prospective drill targets at Golden Rose. Work to date has significantly increased our understanding of the geological model and will help focus our ongoing exploration and tap into what we now believe is a treasure trove of gold and copper targets. In late November of 2021 we announced the discovery of this highly prospective new 20 km district-scale structure at Golden Rose, in addition to the 45 km section of the Valentine Lake Shear Zone transecting Golden Rose, and so we believe our real estate only continues to appreciate as we diligently and methodically work to unearth the tremendous value at Golden Rose.”

TRU is very encouraged by the early results from the IP survey over the Jacob’s Pond area, which in turn forms a part of the greater than 20km long gold soil anomalous trend identified by TRU as disclosed on November 24, 2021. This Jacob’s Pond section of the IP survey is being carried out on the newly emerging segment of what appears to be a continuation of the Cape Ray Shear Zone.

Figure 1 – Plan View of IP Lines with Mineral Occurrences and Copper/Gold in Soils

Figure 2 – Selected IP Sections with Mineralized Samples

None of the unfolding targets have ever been mechanically trenched or drilled and the area remains a raw grassroots discovery of potentially considerable size.

TRU retained Simcoe Geoscience Limited (“Simcoe”) to deploy Simcoe’s next-generation wireless, high-definition Alpha IP technology at Golden Rose. The IP survey is covering newly-defined plus underexplored historical gold exploration targets. The survey will comprise approximately ¬¬¬56 line kilometre (km) of wireless time domain induced polarization using Simcoe's Alpha IP™ system. The use of wireless technology substantially reduces the footprint of the survey and the time required as line cutting is not required. The survey is expected to be completed in approximately thirty days.

National Instrument 43-101 Disclaimers

Note that soil, rock and float samples are selective by nature, and values reported may not represent the true grade or style of mineralization at Golden Rose. Readers are cautioned that these potential grades are conceptual in nature; there has been insufficient exploration by the Company or its qualified person at Golden Rose to define a mineral resource or mineral reserve; and it is uncertain whether further exploration will result in these targets being delineated as a mineral resource or mineral reserve.

The reader is cautioned that descriptions of mineralization, soil anomalies and IP anomalies reported in this news release are preliminary and/or early-stage results. While these features are considered encouraging, there is no guarantee that these features will return significant gold and/or copper values when drilled.

TRU Precious Metals Drills More Gold at Golden Rose Project and Releases Woods Lake Gold Zone Model

Toronto, Ontario – April 7, 2022 – TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce new assay results from an additional 5 of the 22 holes completed during its 2021 winter drill program at its flagship Golden Rose Project in Central Newfoundland (“Golden Rose”). In addition, TRU is releasing a longitudinal cross section model (see Figure 1) of the Woods Lake Gold Zone (“Woods Lake”), which was the primary focus of that drill program.

TRU has now reported on 16 holes in total, with assays from the remaining 6 holes still pending. This includes 4 holes at the King George IV area (“KG4”) and 2 holes at Woods Lake. Reported drilling results at Woods Lake now define a primary gold zone that is 800 metres (m) in strike length (from holes WL-21-06 to WL-21-14) and is open both along strike and at depth.

Highlights

• 1.51 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 11m from 71.0m down hole in DDH WL-21-05, within a broader interval of 0.59 g/t gold over 38m from 49.0m depth down hole. (see Table 1)

• Woods Lake has now been intersected in drilling over 800m along strike. It remains open for expansion along strike and down dip, and the recent drilling has begun to outline a potential southwest and southeast plunge.

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman commented: “This early drilling success at Golden Rose only scratches the surface of the substantial potential and underexplored nature of this property. Woods Lake was the sole previously known gold zone at Golden Rose, and we are pleased with our results there to date, yet we expect numerous additional mineralized areas remain to be discovered and or proved up across the property. As such, we are also excited about our 2022 work and exploration program already underway at Golden Rose. We are grateful to our exploration team, thank them for their hard work so far and look forward to their ongoing contributions to TRU’s continued exploration success. We remain focused on executing our exploration strategy and will continue to deliver meaningful progress and results in the coming months.”

The drill program at Golden Rose consisted of a total of 22 HQ diamond drill holes for a total of 4,102.7m, covering both Woods Lake and KG4 . Golden Rose is a regional-scale 236 square kilometre (km) land package, including 45 km of strike length along the deposit-bearing Cape Ray - Valentine Lake Shear Zone, and is located directly between Marathon Gold’s Valentine Gold Project and Matador Mining’s Cape Ray Gold Project.

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, added: “Our drill data continues to successfully define a potential bulk tonnage gold zone at Woods Lake. As we input infill drilling assays to our gold zone model, it points to a zone that appears to plunge in two directions. This will provide additional vectors in which to target deeper drilling. We feel this is further evidence of the inherent value at Golden Rose and are, therefore, evermore excited about our current property-wide work program underway.”

Table 1 – Woods Lake Uncut Assay Highlights

Figure 1 – Woods Lake Gold Zone Plan and Longitudinal Model

This model is further evidence that Woods Lake lies within a significant and complex fold structure (flexure), localized along the Valentine Lake Shear Zone. Mineralizing fluids likely deposited in a pressure shadow environment related to the fold geometry. More work including deeper drilling is required to interpret the significance of what is shaping up as a doubly plunging mineralized zone, and further attests to the structural complexity of this area and its mineral potential.

Figure 2 – Woods Lake Drill Hole Location Map

Table 2 – Woods Lake Collar Details.

Drill holes WL-21-07 and WL-21-08 were exploratory scout holes testing an historical IP anomaly to the northwest of Woods Lake and did not return significant gold values. WL-21-16 also did not return significant gold values.

Separately, the Company reports that certain of its directors, officers, employees, and consultants have voluntarily forfeited an aggregate of 2,590,000 stock options with exercise prices above $0.25 per share, in order to streamline the Company’s capital structure.

Drilling Quality Assurance/Quality Control (“QA/QC”)

All HQ core is geotechnically measured for RQD’s, logged and marked for sampling. The core is then cut by Company personnel, with half put into bags with unique sample tags for identification while the other half is retained for reference. The bags are sealed with a security tag and are then transported directly to the lab by TRU staff. All rock samples are analyzed at Eastern Analytical Ltd. (“Eastern Analytical”) of 403 Little Bay Road, Springdale, NL, a commercial laboratory that is ISO/IEC 17025 accredited and independent of TRU. Eastern Analytical pulverized 1,000 grams of each sample to 95% < 89 μm. Samples are analyzed using fire assay (30g) with AA finish and an ICP-34, four acid digestion followed by ICP-OES analysis. All samples with visible gold or assaying above 1.00 g/t Au are further assayed using metallic screen to mitigate the presence of the nugget effect of coarse gold. Standards and blanks are inserted at defined intervals for QA/QC purposes by the Company as well as Eastern Analytical. True widths for reported intervals have yet to be determined. The TRU exploration program design is consistent with industry best practices and the program is carried out by qualified persons employing a QA/QC program consistent with National Instrument 43-101.

“Our 2022 exploration season is off to a great start,” said TRU President Stephen Lautens. “The IP survey we announced last month is underway in identifying new high-priority targets for further exploration across our district-scale land package at Golden Rose. A large soil sampling program will further identify new areas for follow-up drilling. Since we acquired Golden Rose last year, TRU has rapidly identified and explored multiple gold targets to show the discovery potential of this property, developing a robust pipeline of drill targets with a view to making Golden Rose a turn-key exploration and development project. We look forward to following up discoveries with new drilling and trenching later this year.”

Golden Rose is a regional-scale land package covering approximately 236 square kilometres (km2) in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt, including approximately 45 km of strike length along the deposit-bearing Cape Ray -Valentine Lake Shear Zone between Marathon Gold Corp.’s Valentine Gold Project to the northeast and Matador Mining Ltd.’s Cape Ray Gold Project to the southwest.

Simcoe IP Survey Update

On February 9, 2022, TRU announced contracting Simcoe Geoscience Limited (“Simcoe”) for an IP survey at Golden Rose. The IP survey is deploying Simcoe’s next-generation wireless, high-definition Alpha IP™ technology. The survey will comprise approximately 56 line km of wireless time-domain induced polarization using Simcoe’s Alpha IP™ system and is expected to be complete within 60 days. The detailed data compiled from this survey will guide TRU’s 2022 trenching and drilling program and be instrumental in developing an additional inventory of highly prospective exploration targets at Golden Rose.

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, added: “I am excited to kick off TRU’s 2022 exploration program. The goal of our program will be to identify additional drill targets for 2022 and beyond. In November 2021, we confirmed a second district-scale gold trend at Golden Rose through an extensive soil sampling program. One area of strong interest that was identified by our previous program was the Jacob’s Pond gold zone, which we will be focusing on over the coming months. Simcoe’s detailed IP survey is actively underway over this gold target. The proposed soil sampling program is planned to be an early season blitz using a large field crew,” Mr. Greene continued. “It is designed to provide early results to generate targets that can be trenched and drilled later this field season.”

Soil and Till Sampling Work

TRU will also undertake an extensive soil and till sampling program at Golden Rose. The multi-crew program is planned to collect more than 10,000 samples at individual sites across the property, designed to identify new gold mineralization and provide additional targets for TRU’s 2022 trenching and drilling programs. The work will focus on completing and infilling gaps in soils coverage over the two primary, deep seated structural corridors that have been delineated over much of the strike length running through the property.

In particular, sampling will be done over the numerous known gold bedrock showings on which minimal previous geochemical or ground geophysical coverage is available, and which are located on primary, secondary or tertiary order structures which emanate from a crustal scale shear zone. Of particular interest in the southwest are the Glimmer Pond, Mink Pond and Falls Zone gold showings, which display a combination of quartz veining and/or regional silicification on which minimal historical work has been carried out. Historical prospecting in the Glimmer Pond area did identify a quartz rich float sample with visible gold with a grab sample which assayed 213.8 grams per tonne (g/t) gold.

Drilling Update

The Company has previously reported that its 2021 drill program encountered gold mineralization in 9 out of the 9 drill holes reported to date at the Woods Lake gold zone (“Woods Lake”), including continuous near-surface gold mineralization (see press releases of March 3 and March 9, 2022). The gold zone has now been intersected in diamond drilling over 800 metres of strike length and is open at depth and along strike.

A total of 11 of the 22 drill holes from the 2021 drilling season have been reported to date. The Company is awaiting assay results for the remaining holes and will report them as assays are received.

The Company is compiling and modeling the 2021 drill program results for Woods Lake. A higher grade core has now been modeled and is showing characteristics of a doubly plunging structurally controlled gold zone. Additional drilling will be required to fully explore and delineate these trends.

TRU Precious Metals Hits More Continuous Gold Mineralization at Golden Rose Project

Toronto, Ontario – March 9, 2022 – TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce new assay results from an additional 4 of 22 holes completed during its 2021 winter drill program at its flagship Golden Rose Project in Central Newfoundland (“Golden Rose”).

Highlights

• 10.0 metres (m) of 1.14 grams per tonne (g/t) gold starting at 52.0 metres in drill hole WL-21-04, which forms the base of a longer 56.0 metre interval grading 0.4 g/t gold starting from the bedrock surface.

• 7.0 metres of 1.81 g/t gold starting from 77.0 metres in hole WL-21-10, which forms the base of a longer 70 metre interval starting at 19.0 m and grading 0.37 g/t gold.

• 1.5 metres of 3.60 g/t gold starting from 27.5 metres in hole WL-21-01, plus an additional 22.0 metres of 0.55 g/t gold starting at 38.0 metres, including 3.0 metres of 1.96 g/t gold at the base of the intercept.

TRU has now reported on 11 holes in total with assays from 11 holes still pending. Reported drilling results now define a primary gold zone that is 800m in strike length (from holes WL-21-06 to WL-21-14) and is open both along strike and at depth.

“I am very pleased to report that our drilling has now hit gold mineralization in 9 out of 9 of the holes reported so far at Woods Lake,” commented Stephen Lautens, President of TRU. “Consistency of results is very important in building a successful story of exploration, and these near-surface results are a solid basis for further and expanded exploration. We are also looking forward to exploring a number of other highly prospective targets that have shown even greater gold values at surface.”

The drill program at Golden Rose consisted of a total of 22 HQ diamond drill holes for a total of 4,102.7m, covering both the Woods Lake Gold Zone prospect (“Woods Lake”) and the King George IV Lake area (“KG4”). Golden Rose is a regional-scale 236 square kilometre (km) land package, including 45 km of strike length along the deposit-bearing Cape Ray - Valentine Lake Shear Zone, and is located directly between Marathon Gold’s Valentine Gold Project and Matador Mining’s Cape Ray Gold Project.

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, added: “The thick, near surface, gold zone encountered in holes WL-21-01, WL-21-04 and WL-21-10 are indicative of a bulk tonnage gold target. Gold mineralization in hole WL-21-10 actually straddles the faulted contact between the hanging wall Bay du Nord group metasediments and the underlying monzogranite. We continue to be impressed by the voluminous intersections of altered and mineralized felsic intrusive in this drill program.”

Table 2 – Woods Lake Collar Details

The gold intercept in WL-21-14 was testing a gold soil geochemical anomaly that was along strike to the northwest from the main Woods Lake gold zone. This hole intersected quartz veining with arsenopyrite and pyrite in sedimentary rocks, indicating that gold can be encountered not only in the felsic intrusive, but also in the surrounding rocks.

Drilling Quality Assurance/Quality Control (“QA/QC”)

All HQ core is geotechnically measured for RQD’s, logged and marked for sampling. The core is then cut by Company personnel, with half put into bags with unique sample tags for identification while the other half is retained for reference. The bags are sealed with a security tag and are then transported directly to the lab by TRU staff. All rock samples are analyzed at Eastern Analytical Ltd. (“Eastern Analytical”) of 403 Little Bay Road, Springdale, NL, a commercial laboratory that is ISO/IEC 17025 accredited and independent of TRU. Eastern Analytical pulverized 1,000 grams of each sample to 95% < 89 μm. Samples are analyzed using fire assay (30g) with AA finish and an ICP-34, four acid digestion followed by ICP-OES analysis. All samples with visible gold or assaying above 1.00 g/t Au are further assayed using metallic screen to mitigate the presence of the nugget effect of coarse gold. Standards and blanks are inserted at defined intervals for QA/QC purposes by the Company as well as Eastern Analytical. True widths for reported intervals have yet to be determined. The TRU exploration program design is consistent with industry best practices and the program is carried out by qualified persons employing a QA/QC program consistent with National Instrument 43-101.
