TRU Precious Metals Completes Soil Sampling Program at Its Rolling Pond Property Bordering New Found Gold’s Queensway Project

Fredericton, New Brunswick – June 17, 2021 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has completed a property-wide soil sampling program at its Rolling Pond Property in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt. The Rolling Pond property is contiguous with the south end of New Found Gold’s Queensway project. New Found Gold reported drill intercepts on May 21, 2021 at the Queensway Project of 146.2 grams per tonne gold over 25.6 meters (1).

The completed geochemical surveying program represents TRU’s first phase of field work at the Rolling Pond property and consisted of extensive and detailed sampling (684 samples were collected). The sampling covered the large hydrothermal and quartz breccia system, which has been identified over a 1.2 km strike length but has never been subjected to a systematic soil geochemical survey. The sampling was positioned to expand upon a known soil geochemical anomaly near the south-central area of the property where a coincident multi element soil anomaly has returned gold values from 5 parts per billion (ppb) to 142ppb, one of two gold anomalous areas spanning a 500m length. The samples are being submitted to Eastern Analytical of Springdale, NL for gold fire assay and 34 element ICP geochemical analysis. Eastern Analytical is an independent accredited assay lab that conforms to requirements of ISO/IEC (International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission) 17025.

TRU Co-Founder and CEO, Joel Freudman, commented: "We are excited to announce the completion of our first phase of work at Rolling Pond. Completing this detailed geochemical survey is a cost-effective way to provide the Company with greater technical data on this large target area and assists in facilitating guidance for our next phases of groundwork.  Rolling Pond, being next door to New Found Gold's Queensway Property, provides TRU with an advantageous access point to the prospective geology of that area. We remain encouraged by historical findings that the nature and style of mineralization at the Rolling Pond Property appears similar to that of New Found Gold's and thus look forward to the results from this program.”
