TRU Precious Metals Contracts Simcoe Geoscience for IP Survey at Golden Rose Project

Toronto, Ontario – February 9, 2022 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has retained Simcoe Geoscience Limited (“Simcoe”) to conduct an Induced Polarization (“IP”) survey at the Company’s flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose”) in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt, scheduled to commence later this month. The Company is also providing an interim update on the delay in receiving drill results from its winter 2021 drilling program at Golden Rose.

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.

Winter 2021 Drillhole Assays Update

TRU reported results from 2 drillholes in its press release dated January 11, 2022, and is still awaiting assay results from the remaining 20 of the 22 drillholes from its recent approximately 4,100 metre drill program at Golden Rose. TRU has not yet received any further results to report at present. The Company continues to await all outstanding assays, including those from 3 holes containing visible gold at the Woods Lake Gold Zone, as well as holes at the King George IV lake area where the Company discovered a new quartz-pyrite-chalcopyrite (copper) stockwork system.

The sole assay lab in Newfoundland is currently experiencing a longer than usual turnaround time for analytical results, sometimes resulting in delays of up to several months, due to Covid and the increased demand from rapidly expanding local mineral exploration. TRU is looking at ways to expedite receiving results from submitted samples, and in any case continues to expect to receive results in batches on a rolling basis over the coming weeks and months, which will be reported in a timely manner as they are received.

Simcoe IP Survey

TRU will be deploying Simcoe’s next-generation wireless, high-definition Alpha IP™ technology at Golden Rose. The IP survey will cover newly defined plus underexplored historical gold exploration targets. The survey will comprise approximately 56 line 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 60 days from commencement.

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, commented: "We are delighted to partner with Simcoe at Golden Rose. Their unparalleled modelling experience and proprietary Alpha IP™ system will provide detailed data essential to planning our 2022 trenching and drilling programs. The information garnered from this IP survey will be crucial to developing a well-defined set of targets at Golden Rose for the various high-priority areas, and will add to our extensive inventory of grassroots gold and copper targets for an expanded regional exploration program throughout 2022. It is also encouraging that Simcoe has worked successfully with other junior resource companies in the Newfoundland Gold Belt, and we are looking forward to the completion of this project."

Alpha IP is a “green” survey technology with no tree cutting required – an example of effective, next generation and non-destructive exploration methods at work. Simcoe’s history of geophysical discovery spans from coast to coast in Canada, with Alpha IP data and surveys playing a key role in the recent discovery of what is becoming Ascot Resources’ new mine in interior BC. In addition, Simcoe works locally in Newfoundland with clients such as Aurwest Resources.

Simcoe will be surveying Golden Rose with deep-penetrating Alpha IP technology to acquire 2D data which then can be quickly modeled and imaged in high-definition 3D. This comprehensive 3D imaging will ultimately provide TRU with the precise targeting needed to potentially intersect gold-related mineralization and structures of interest across a substantial portion of Golden Rose. Trenching and drilling of recommended targets can quickly follow the Alpha IP targeting later in 2022.

TRU Precious Metals Announces Completion of Drill Program at Golden Rose Project in Central Newfoundland and Reports Gold in Initial Assay Results

Fredericton, New Brunswick – January 11, 2022 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has completed the diamond drill program, as previously announced on October 19, 2021, at its flagship Golden Rose Project in Central Newfoundland (“Golden Rose”). The drill program comprised a total of 22 HQ diamond drill holes for a total of 4,102.7 metres (m), covering both the Woods Lake Gold Zone prospect (“Woods Lake”) and the King George IV Lake area (“KG4”) of Golden Rose (Figures 2 and 3, respectively). The Company is also pleased to announce assay results from 2 of these holes.

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.

Highlights

• Discovery of a new quartz-pyrite-chalcopyrite (copper) stockwork system in mafic volcanics at KG4. This intercept is near a large boulder field of similar material found along the shoreline.

• Expansion of Woods Lake mineralized system by 300m along strike containing quartz- pyrite-arsenopyrite veining, in footwall metasedimentary rocks in hole WL-21-14.

• 12 of the 16 holes drilled at Woods Lake that targeted the known gold zone successfully encountered the altered and mineralized monzogranite (QFP), which is host to most historical gold intercepts on this zone.

• Notable early results include 9.9m @ 2.13 grams per ton (g/t) gold (Au) within a broader interval of 18.9m @ 1.26 g/t Au, from drill hole WL-21-03 at Woods Lake. (Table 1)

• Specks of visible gold (Figure 1) have been identified in three drill holes at Woods Lake: WL-21-04 @ depths of 58.45m and 129.82m; WL-21-05 @ depths of 52.79m and 55.04m; and WL-21-10@ 77.56m depth.

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, commented: “We are extremely encouraged with our early drill results from this program as we await further assays. Diamond drilling at both KG4 and Woods Lake have successfully identified new mineralized areas for further expansion. Meanwhile, given the plethora of grassroots gold and copper-gold targets at Golden Rose, we are already planning an expansion of our regional exploration program for 2022. In particular, the Jacob’s Pond gold showing stands out as an immediate area of interest.”

At Woods Lake, a total of 16 drill holes were completed for 2,911.7m (Figure 2). Exploration drilling 300m along strike to the northwest of the known gold zone was targeting the continuation of the anomalous gold soil geochemistry associated with the gold zone. In addition to successfully intersecting the mineralized QFP in 12 holes, drill hole WL-21-14 successfully intersected quartz-pyrite-arsenopyrite veining from 86.60-97.97m. This mineralization is hosted in quartz veins and breccias.

Also at Woods Lake, localized specks of visible gold were documented in quartz veins and breccias both in the primary host QFP and in narrow quartz veins in the footwall, specifically at 129.82m of WL-21-04. This further confirms that gold mineralization potential exists outside the primary host intrusive rocks and broadens the scope of potential targets.

Figure 1: Figure 1 – Visible Gold in Drill Core at Woods Lake

TRU Co-Founder and CEO, Joel Freudman, added: “We are delighted to have completed our first drill program at our flagship Golden Rose Project, which our geological team worked diligently to complete as efficiently and safely as possible. Notwithstanding that the program was slightly reduced from the original plan of 5,000 metres due to inclement weather in December, I am pleased that we finished on time. We are equally pleased to commence reporting our initial results, as both of the first two reported holes intersected notable intervals of gold mineralization. We look forward to receiving more fulsome assay results to attain a better understanding of the mineralized areas and will report such results on a rolling basis as we receive them over the next weeks to come. It will be an exciting 2022 at Golden Rose.”

At KG4, a total of 6 drill holes were completed for 1,191m (Figure 3). Drilling was focused on testing selected IP chargeability anomalies identified in a survey completed in November 2021. Mineralization consisting of disseminated pyrite with local chalcopyrite was intercepted in most drill holes. Drill hole KG-21-05 intercepted two zones of bleached mafic volcanics with stockwork/breccia quartz-carbonate-epidote veining containing chalcopyrite and pyrite. The zones were intersected from 118.65-122.5m (a 3.85m interval) and 136.5-137.4m (a 0.9m interval). Sampling is underway and assays are pending.

Figure 3 –Drill Hole Locations at KG4

Drill core cutting and sampling has now resumed following the holiday break and will continue over the next two to three weeks. Given the continued backlog at Newfoundland’s only assay lab, TRU anticipates that it will not have the full set of assays from this drill program in hand until the end of March 2022; however, results will be released by TRU as they are received in larger batches throughout the next several months.

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. 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 Precious Metals Confirms Second District-Scale Gold Trend Through Soil Sampling Program at Golden Rose Project

Fredericton, New Brunswick – November 24, 2021 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to report recently-received soil sampling results from its flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose”) in Newfoundland, Canada.

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 (“Matador”) Cape Ray Gold Project to the southwest.

Highlights

• Confirmation of a district-scale gold anomalous trend over approximately 20 kilometres associated with a district-scale shear zone, which extends onto King George IV area of Golden Rose where TRU is currently drilling

• Delineation of several discrete clusters of highly anomalous gold values

• Multiple trenching targets have been identified and gold anomalies are open for expansion

• Polymetallic signatures in gold/copper indicated in both rocks and soils along this structure

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and a Director of TRU, commented: “As soon as we plotted the data and looked at it in the context of the regional magnetic geophysical signatures, I couldn’t help but think back to the early days at the Valentine Lake project. The scale and scope of this newly identified soil anomalous trend on Golden Rose reminded me of the regional scale soil anomalous trend I saw when I first started working on the Valentine Lake project in 1988, in the early discovery days. As we were trenching at Valentine Lake and uncovering gold mineralized veins, we were following the soil anomalies along the Valentine Lake regional structural break. It’s like looking at the Valentine Lake soils data from 33 years ago.”

Sampling Results

TRU has received almost all of the soils and rock analytical data collected during the 2021 field season, which has confirmed a new district-scale anomalous gold trend at Golden Rose over approximately 20 km of strike length. This data further solidifies the Company’s belief in the exploration potential of the shear zone/thrust fault contact between the Windsor Point Group and the King George IV ophiolite and the Rainy Lake complex gabbro along the northwest side of Golden Rose. TRU also believes that the data confirms it has opened a new, previously unrecognized area for exploration.

As the shear zone wraps around the ophiolites (Figure 1), the ophiolites appear to be structurally dissected, creating a distinct series of likely brittle second and third order structures. The structural architecture can be imaged in the aerial magnetic data (Figure 2). This will be a priority for expansion of future soil sampling to fully delineate the anomalous trend.

At the north end of this newly identified regional trend, rock sampling from bedrock and from local float confirms a gold-copper signature at the Jacob’s Pond gold prospect. Following along the Jacob’s Pond trend to the southwest, in association with this anomalous soils data, TRU’s field crews have collected several heavily copper mineralized samples including one sample which assayed 14.3 grams per tonne (g/t) gold, 11.0% copper, 368 g/t silver and 0.12% antimony (Figure 3).

Figure 1 – Regional 2021 gold in soils on geology

Figure 2 – Regional 2021 gold in soils on gradient magnetics

Figure 3 – Regional 2021 gold in soils near Jacob’s Pond Gold Prospect

Joel Freudman, Co-Founder and CEO of TRU, added: “I am very pleased that our Exploration team has identified a significant and highly-prospective new district-scale structure at Golden Rose . As this is in addition to the 45 km section of the Valentine Lake Shear Zone transecting Golden Rose, we now have much more high-priority real estate for exploration along this structural corridor, which we think may correlate with the Cape Ray Shear Zone running up from Matador’s Cape Ray deposits. As an added bonus, early indications in our soil and rock samples suggest this structure could have polymetallic potential. We remain hard at work in our efforts to unlock value for our shareholders from our flagship Golden Rose Project.”

The Company is considering an expansion of its regional exploration program in early 2022 along this newly-recognized regional structure, which may include an IP survey over the winter ice, in order to lay the groundwork for a spring 2022 trenching and/or drilling program on newly-advanced targets.

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.

TRU Precious Metals Moves Drilling to King George IV Area of Golden Rose Project After Discovering More Visible Gold Grains at Surface

Fredericton, New Brunswick – November 18, 2021 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the Company has commenced drilling in the King George IV lake area (”KG4”) at its flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose”), in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt, building off a recently-completed IP geophysical survey. This is part of the Company’s approximately 5,000 metre (m) diamond drill program underway at Golden Rose, as previously announced on October 19, 2021.

Highlights

• 500m x 400m IP anomaly identified near pristine gold grains on shoreline of KG4

• Larger, approximately 1.5 kilometre (km) x 1.1 km horseshoe shaped IP anomaly identified near a cluster of quartz stockwork containing chalcopyrite, sphalerite, pyrite and pyrrhotite

• Till sampling at KG4 yielded numerous anomalous values over 500 parts per billion (ppb) gold (Au), including 1,699 ppb Au coincident with IP anomaly

• First ever drill program at KG4

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, commented: “As we take a pause to await assay results from our drilling at the Wood Lake Gold Zone, including drill core with visible gold, we are excited to have now moved drilling to the never-before-drilled KG4. Between these new till sampling results showing significantly more visible gold grains at KG4, and the IP survey delineating clear drill targets, we believe that we are vectoring in on the potential source of the earlier visible gold grains we discovered and announced on July 14, 2021. We are very encouraged that these samples contain higher gold concentrations.”

Current Exploration

TRU is pleased to report that several geologically well-situated IP targets have been identified and initial drill targets have been selected. The initial drilling is focusing on a 500m x 400m N-S trending IP anomaly (Figure 1) located a few hundred meters upslope of the KG4 shoreline, where 97 gold grains were returned from the previously-announced panned sample containing numerous pristine gold grains. The IP anomaly is directly upslope of the cemented hardpan gossan identified near those gold grains. A similar layer of hardpan gossan can also be traced for approximately 500m south, coincident with the trace of the IP anomaly.

Figure 1: IP Chargeability Anomalies at KG4 With Gold Grain Counts in Till

Furthermore, an expanded till sampling program has also been completed in the surrounding area for gold grain analysis and for geochemical analysis. Results from these samples has revealed multiple sites containing high gold grain counts (Figure 1), including pristine gold grains suggestive of a locally derived source. Gold grain counts include a sample containing 50 gold grains also coincident with the IP anomaly. In addition, geochemical results have returned highly anomalous gold values coincident with the same IP anomaly, including multiple tills over 500 ppb Au and one till sample grading 1,699 ppb Au (Figure 2).

Figure 2: Till Sampling Results at KG4

Further drilling at KG4 will focus on a large horseshoe-shaped IP anomaly measuring approximately 1.5km x 1.1 km. This anomaly coincides with and expands upon a cluster of large angular blocks of mineralized rocks with a quartz stockwork containing chalcopyrite, sphalerite, pyrite and pyrrhotite found on the shoreline of KG4.

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman added: “We are increasingly excited about our ongoing drilling program at Golden Rose. The strong presence of even more visible gold grains at KG4 than previously discovered further justifies the prospectivity of Golden Rose. I am extremely pleased with Barry’s leadership of our field team, and their excellent execution to date of TRU’s 5,000-metre diamond drill program, which continues on schedule under the close supervision of our Exploration Manager Pearce Bradley and our other teammates. With more than half of our planned drill metreage remaining, we look forward to a continued flow of good news to report.”

Geological Background

The KG4 area within Golden Rose is geologically located along the structural contact between the younger Windsor Point Group and the older King George IV ophiolite. Fieldwork by TRU’s geologists in the 2021 field season has led to the interpretation that this contact is an inferred thrust fault and can be regionally correlated with the Cape Ray Shear Zone. Notably, the cluster of mineralized quartz stockwork blocks and panned pristine gold grains are located along the magnetic low which defines this structural contact. To the southwest, on Matador Mining Ltd.’s (“Matador”) Cape Ray project, gold deposits are associated with a similar structural contact.

Golden Rose overall is a regional-scale land package covering approximately 236 square kilometres, including approximately 45 km of strike length along the deposit-bearing Cape Ray -Valentine Lake structural corridor between Marathon Gold Corp.’s Valentine Gold Project immediately to the northeast and Matador’s Cape Ray Gold Project immediately to the southwest.

Note that till samples and other exploration results are select samples and are not necessarily representative of mineralization on KG4. Readers are cautioned that these grades are conceptual in nature; there has been insufficient exploration by the Company or its qualified person at KG4 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.

TRU Precious Metals Drills Visible Gold at Golden Rose Project

Fredericton, New Brunswick – November 4, 2021 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has encountered visible gold early in its 5,000 metre diamond drill program currently underway at its flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose”), in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt.

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman commented: “We are ecstatic to report that multiple specks of visible gold have been observed in a completed drill hole in our recently announced drill program at Golden Rose. While assays are pending and the drilling continues, we are encouraged and feel that these early observations further bolster our belief in the prospectivity of Golden Rose and provide early validation of the extensive work that our Team has dedicated to this program. We look forward to reporting additional results as drilling continues.”

Woods Lake itself (figure 1) is situated on a 2.5 km long by 0.5 km wide Z shaped flexure in the Valentine Lake shear zone. Drilling to date has been focused on the Woods Lake Gold Zone (‘WLGZ”). While infill drilling on a potential hinge area of the shear zone, drill hole WL-21-05 successfully encountered several flecks of visible gold at 52.79m and 55.04m down hole (figures 2 and 3). The visible gold is in thin fractures absent any appreciable sulphides. This is the first reported visible gold encountered in this area of the WLGZ. Hole WL-21-05 is located approximately 800 meters from historic hole ST05-004 where visible gold was observed and which ultimately assayed 19.4 g/t Au over 1.5m.

Figure 1 – Woods Lake Drilling Map  

Golden Rose is a regional-scale land package covering 215.25 square kilometres (km2), including approximately 45 km of strike length along the deposit-bearing Cape Ray -Valentine Lake structural corridor between Marathon Gold Corp.’s (“Marathon”) Valentine Gold Project to the northeast and Matador Mining Ltd.’s (“Matador”) Cape Ray Gold Project to the southwest.

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU further commented: “It is rewarding to see visible gold in drill core this early in the drill program. As we explore new ideas and test new ground, we are continuing to see good signs, not only at the Woods Lake but property wide. Golden Rose is really shaping up as a significant project of merit.”

TRU Precious Metals Commences 5,000 Metre Drill Program at Golden Rose Project

Fredericton, New Brunswick – October 19, 2021 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that an approximately 5,000 metre (m) diamond drill program is underway at its flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose”), in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt.

Golden Rose is a regional-scale land package covering 215.25 square kilometres (sqkm), including approximately 45 km of strike length along the deposit-bearing Cape Ray -Valentine Lake structural corridor between Marathon Gold Corp.’s (“Marathon”) Valentine Gold Project to the northeast and Matador Mining Ltd.’s (“Matador”) Cape Ray Gold Project to the southwest.

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman commented: “We are excited to finally start our drill program at Golden Rose. Its geologically strategic location, sandwiched between two neighbours with significant known gold deposits, provides an undeniable advantage. Since announcing our deal to acquire Golden Rose in January of this year, we have been busy preparing for this moment, and now a mere nine months later, we are breaking ground. This drill program marks a seminal event for TRU that will significantly impact TRU’s future as an exploration company of merit.”

Key Points

• 5,000m diamond drilling planned.

• Drilling will primarily target delineation and expansion of known gold mineralization at the Woods Lake Gold Zone (“Woods Lake”) and will include a mix of confirmatory/twin holes, infill/delineation holes, and scout holes.

• Drilling will also be carried out at the King George IV claims (“KG4”), on which the Company has panned visible gold at surface, and which has never been previously drilled.

Mr. Freudman added: “In addition to our wide-ranging surface-level exploration efforts over the past several months, we have worked closely with our technical consultants at Goldspot Discoveries Corp. and have drawn on their expertise to further shore up all facets of our drill program. We have two key targets to drill in the coming months, and we look forward to a strong, focused drilling campaign that merits follow-on exploration at such targets and elsewhere across the property.

Historical Drilling Highlights

Highlights of historical drilling at Woods Lake within Golden Rose include:

• 2.15 grams per ton (g/t) gold (Au) over 12.6m, including 3.65 g/t Au over 6.0m, in hole ST09-009

• 1.37 g/t Au over 26.31m, including 6.18 g/t Au over 5.11m, in hole ST09-002

• 1.76 g/t Au over 7.34m, including 2.8 g/t Au over 4.34m, in hole ST09-012

• 19.8 g/t Au over 1.5m, with visible gold observed, in hole ST05-004

• 1.2 g/t Au over 28.5m, including 11.25 g/t Au over 1.5m, in hole ST05-007

Figure 1 – Historical Drilling at Woods Lake

Note that historical drill hole results are select samples and are not necessarily representative of mineralization on 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.

Figure 2  - TRU Drill Program Overview

The Company’s collaboration with Goldspot Discoveries Corp. has formulated a drill program designed to provide confirmation, delineation/infill and scout drilling at Woods Lake. The Company anticipates drilling approximately 3,500m at Woods Lake this fall. The objective is to begin the process to advance Woods Lake towards the resource definition stage by working from a newly created 3D geological model, and a grade contour of Woods Lake, which has historically been partially outlined by 40 diamond drill holes (totalling 6,301m) over a 550m strike length. The zone lies on the southwestern shore of Woods Lake and was discovered in 2002 during follow-up trenching of gold in panned concentrate samples. The altered and quartz veined monzogranite has been traced for approximately 1,500m along strike. The zone appears to be open both along strike and to depth.

A second objective of the drill program will be to make a discovery on the newly identified KG4 gold target through an estimated 1,500m of drilling. The Company optioned this property after recovering many pristine gold grains from its shoreline gravels and sands and observing an iron oxidized hardpan gossan nearby (see TRU Press Release dated July 8, 2021). Additional prospecting and mapping within 1 km along the shoreline revealed dozens of mineralized angular blocks, from 10cm to as large as 2m. The mineralization is described as containing abundant pyrite and chalcopyrite in a quartz stockwork and hosted by a mafic rock.

In final preparation for the eventual drilling at KG4, an IP/Resistivity survey remains underway there. The survey will cover several crosscutting linear magnetic low features identified in the Company’s recently completed airborne geophysical survey over the area.

Geological Prospectivity

The Cape Ray-Valentine Lake fault system, on which Golden Rose is located, bisects central Newfoundland from southwest to northeast. It is a crustal scale feature, the trace of which is marked in the southwest by the Windsor Point Group and in the central and northeastern areas by the Rogerson Lake Conglomerate. These units are syn-orogenic upper crustal clastic sequences, which elsewhere are commonly associated with orogenic gold vein systems (e.g., the Abitibi Greenstone Belt). Exploration along this regional structure along trend of Golden Rose has revealed the presence of significant gold mineralization, namely Matador’s Cape Ray gold deposits and Marathon’s Valentine Lake gold deposits.

KG4 is geologically located along the structural contact between the younger Windsor Point Group and the older King George IV ophiolite. Notably, the mineralized quartz stockwork blocks and panned pristine gold grains are located along the magnetic low which defines this structural contact. To the southwest, on Matador’s Cape Ray project, gold deposits are associated with a similar structural contact.

TRU Precious Metals Reports Remaining Drill Results at Twilite Gold Project

Fredericton, New Brunswick – October 8, 2021 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the remaining assays from its 12-hole, Phase 1 diamond drilling program at its 100%-owned Twilite Gold Project in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt (“Twilite Gold’’).

Highlights include the intersection of 1.00 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 2 metres (m) in borehole TL21-27. Overall, the drill program successfully extended the known Fort Knox gold zone along strike and down dip and provided valuable geological information to help vector future drill programs in extending the zone.

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, commented: “The shear zone, which hosts the Fort Knox gold zone, displays widespread hydrothermal brecciation with silica, sericite and carbonate alteration throughout the latest drill holes. Mineralization comprising pyrite, stibnite and arsenopyrite is also continuing. Although diminishing to the southeast, the gold zone remains open to the northwest beyond hole TL21-17, where the zone is widening, and the gold grades are improving both at depth and along trend in the northwest direction. We now have gold intercepts equal to or greater than 1 g/t gold in 5 of the 10 holes completed in this drill program.”

TRU Precious Metals Reports Additional Drill Results at Twilite Gold Project and Prepares for Drilling at Golden Rose Project

Fredericton, New Brunswick – September 15, 2021 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce additional assays from its 12-hole, Phase 1 diamond drilling program at its 100%-owned Twilite Gold Project in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt (“Twilite Gold’’). The Company is also providing an update on drilling preparations at its flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose”), also in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt located along the deposit-bearing Cape Ray – Valentine Lake Shear Zone.

Highlights from the latest batch of Twilite Gold drill results (Tables 1 and 2) include:

• 6.00 metres (m) grading 1.06 grams per ton (g/t) gold (Au) in drill hole TL-21-18.

• 3.00m grading 0.85 g/t Au in drill hole TL-21-20.

• Robust shear zone hosted quartz breccia system remains open along strike in all directions.

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, commented: “The strength of the alteration, brecciation and mineralization remains intact as the gold system is continuing to the southeast. As is common, structural complexities play a part in the distribution of gold as the gold zone is deeper than expected. We are working to determine if this is an offset or part of a separate zone.”

* Abandoned prematurely due to bad ground conditions.

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman added: “We are pleased that we continue to encounter gold mineralization in the results from our recently-completed inaugural drill program, and we look forward to the remaining results, which will guide future drilling at Twilite Gold. I am even more excited about our imminent 5,000-metre diamond drill program at our flagship Golden Rose Project - with permitting now in hand, drilling will soon be a reality. Over the past 4 months, our team has worked ardently in preparation. Golden Rose represents a unique opportunity for TRU for numerous reasons, with the key drivers being that it is well-situated both geologically and geographically, sandwiched between two neighbours with significant known gold deposits.”

Golden Rose Drilling Preparations

At Golden Rose, drill permitting is now in place and a drill contract has been awarded to Logan Drilling Limited for a planned 5,000m diamond drilling campaign, scheduled to begin in early to mid-October. The Company is working closely with GoldSpot Discoveries Corp. in laying out and targeting its drill program.

TRU’s main objectives for this drill program are (1) infill drilling at the South Woods Lake Gold Zone, to better delineate the known mineralization there, and (2) exploratory drilling at the recently-optioned King George IV claims in hopes of making a new discovery there, following the Company’s discovery of visible gold grains on such claims this summer, as previously announced on July 14, 2021.

As additional preparatory steps, the Company recently completed a 1,568 line-kilometer airborne magnetic gradiometer survey over select portions of Golden Rose, including the King George IV claims. The Company is also preparing for an IP/Resistivity survey at the King George IV claims.

TRU Precious Metals Encounters Gold in First Two Drillholes at its 100%-Owned Twilite Gold Project

Fredericton, New Brunswick – August 18, 2021 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce, further to its press release on July 7, 2021, initial assays from the first two holes of the 12 hole, Phase 1 diamond drilling program at its 100%-owned Twilite Gold Project in Central Newfoundland (“Twilite Gold’’). Drilling focused on a previously identified target that the Company has now dubbed the “Fort Knox Gold Zone”.

Highlights from drill holes TL-21-16 and TL-21-17 include:

• Drilling confirms continuity of the gold zone 30 metres (m) down-dip from historic drill hole TL-99-14 and 70m down dip from historic hole TL-99-15, with similar grades and thickness. Some of the best intercepts include 11.5m with 1.03 grams per tonne (g/t) of gold (Au) in hole TL-21-17, and 10.5m with 1.07 g/t Au in hole TL-21-16.

• The gold zone is open downdip on these sections and along strike to the northwest, where no previous drilling has been done.

• Two gold zones have been encountered in hole TL-21-17, enveloping a black quartz breccia and at the sheared contact between the breccias and underlying graphitic sediments.

The drill program also confirmed the northwest trend of the mineralization, directly associated with a shear zone outlined by geophysics as a prominent detailed magnetic low that is continuous for at least 600m. The 600m detailed magnetic low is part of a regional structural break that has been outlined for approximately 7 kilometres by airborne magnetics on Twilite Gold. Regional till geochemistry has previously indicated a gold plus multi-element NNW anomalous trend coincident with the structural break. Only 200m of the shear zone at Twilite Gold has been tested by drilling to date, with results pending for 10 additional diamond drill holes.

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, commented: “We are delighted to see the continuity and expansion of the northwest trending Fort Knox Gold Zone successfully intersected in drill holes TL-21-16 and TL-21-17, and that the zone is wide open for potential further expansion. Since there has never been any drilling completed to the northwest beyond these holes, it becomes an obvious target area for a next phase of drilling. With thick sections of altered quartz breccia encountered in other nearby holes, for which assays are pending, we are hopeful for expansion of the gold zone to the southeast as well.”

Table 1. Uncut Assay Highlights

Figure 1 – Plan Map of Twilite Gold Drilling

In hole TL-21-16, the uppermost gold mineralized zone is hosted by strongly bleached and iron carbonate altered mafic volcanics containing pyrite and arsenopyrite. The main gold zone is hosted by dark grey to black silicified breccia and continues across a sheared contact with graphitic sediments.

In hole TL-21-17, the uppermost gold mineralized zone is at the upper contact with a grey to black silicified breccia, and the main gold zone, which correlates with the main zone in hole TL-21-16, is situated at the lower contact of the grey to black breccia and continues across the sheared contact with graphitic sediments.

Figure 2 – Cross Section of Twilite Gold Drilling

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman added: “We are pleased to share the initial results from our first drill program at Twilite Gold, which is also our first as a company. We are encouraged by the results from these first two holes. Our work at Twilite Gold will help us solidify the known mineralization areas and identify the project’s expansion potential. With the drill program completed, our focus for Twilite Gold will be on analyzing the data we have accumulated as we receive the remaining assays from the other ten holes.”

Table 2. Collar Details for TL-21-16 and TL-21-17

Other Exploration Updates

Separately, further to its July 30, 2021 press release, the Company is also providing an update on the final exploration results from its Gander West Property (“Gander West”), located approximately 16 kilometres from New Found Gold Corp.’s Queensway Project. As previously announced, all rock sample and soil geochemical results were already received, but TRU has now received the results of the nine outstanding Gander West till samples submitted to Overburden Drilling Management Limited (“ODM”).

TRU is pleased to report that ODM’s gold grain analysis indicates visible gold grains in all nine of these samples. Pristine gold grains were recovered in seven samples, including 17, 12 and 11 pristine grains, respectively, in three of the samples. ODM has confirmed to the Company that this could be indicative of Gander West being fertile for gold exploration. The till samples had been collected around a large northeast elongated pond that was the site of a topographic lineament also indicated in the regional magnetic data as a potential fault structure. A more systematic program of till sampling is warranted to further delineate the potential head of the gold dispersal train, towards identifying a bedrock source.

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

All NQ core is sampled, cut by core saw, and split by Company personnel, and put into bags with unique sample tags for identification. 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 1000 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. 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 Precious Metals provides update on summer 2021 exploration program

Fredericton, New Brunswick – July 30, 2021 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide a comprehensive update on its exploration program across its properties in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt. The Company also announces the results of its annual and special shareholder meeting held on July 29, 2021 (the “Meeting”).

Golden Rose Project

The Company is continuing its systematic program of soil sampling, till sampling, geological mapping and prospecting as the Golden Rose Project becomes its exploration focus for the remainder of the summer field season. Almost 2,000 field samples have been submitted for geochemical analysis, with results pending over the next 6-8 weeks. Meanwhile, the Company is also preparing to carry out an airborne geophysical survey over recently-acquired portions of the Golden Rose Project, with such survey expected to begin in early August.

GoldSpot Discoveries Corp., a technical services provider to the Company, has made its preliminary target presentation to the Company, and is also completing geological modeling of the South Woods Lake Gold Zone (“SWL Gold Zone”), where historical drilling over a 550 metre (m) long section of a felsic intrusive previously confirmed the presence of significant gold mineralization. This geological modeling will aid the Company in selecting drill targets at the SWL Gold Zone. The Company is also applying for permitting and securing a drilling contractor with a view to carrying out its previously-disclosed 5,000 m drill program at the Golden Rose Project, expected to commence in October 2021. The drill program will focus on infilling and expanding the gold mineralized felsic intrusive at the SWL Gold Zone, and will also target the claims optioned by TRU on July 13, 2021, on which the Company found visible gold grains and a nearby gossan.

Twilite Gold Project

On July 7, 2021, the Company announced the completion of its phase 1, 2,577 m drilling program at its Twilite Gold Project, focusing on a previously-identified target now called the Fort Knox Gold Zone. Core cutting and sample submission, which were being carried out on an ongoing basis, have been completed this week. Results are expected on a rolling basis over the next approximately 6 weeks and will be publicly disclosed in batches as previously reported.

Early-Stage Properties

On May 25, 2021, the Company announced a phase 1 exploration program at its Gander West property, located approximately 16 kilometres from New Found Gold Corp.’s Queensway Project. All rock and soil geochemical results from the limited-scale, orientation-level field program have now been received, with results still outstanding from nine till samples submitted for gold grain analysis. The best result from rock sampling was 395 parts per billion (ppb) gold (Au) from a grab sample. The best results from 118 soil samples were 52 ppb and 31 ppb Au. Results are being plotted for interpretation and to determine where additional infill sampling or other field follow-up may be warranted.

On June 17, 2021, the Company announced that it had completed a property-wide targeted soil survey at its Rolling Pond property bordering the Queensway Project, which was designed to provide the Company with another layer of geochemical data in prospective areas after compilation of historic geophysics, diamond drilling and prospecting. To date, the Company has received results for approximately one-quarter of its soil samples, with the best results being 61 and 34 ppb Au, and has also received all rock grab sample results with none being significant. Once all outstanding results have been received over the next several weeks, the Company will determine whether and where ground follow-up may be warranted.

In early July 2021, the Company completed an orientation-level soil sampling and prospecting program at its Stony Lake property, located 5 to 10 kilometres south of the Twilite Gold Project. In total, 171 soil samples and 39 rock grab samples were collected, with results expected over the next approximately 6 weeks.

Meeting Results

The Company is also reporting voting results from the Meeting.

TRU Precious Metals options property with visible gold in further expansion of Golden Rose Project

Fredericton, New Brunswick – July 14, 2021 – TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an option agreement dated July 13, 2021 (the “Option Agreement”) with an arm’s length individual (the “Optionor”), in respect of 5 mineral licenses covering 51 contiguous claims (12.75 square kilometres (km2)) located in west-central Newfoundland (the “Optioned Claims”), on which the Company has found visible gold. The Optioned Claims are contiguous with the Company’s flagship Golden Rose project (“Golden Rose” or the “Golden Rose Project”). In addition, the Company has indirectly staked a larger land package surrounding the Optioned Claims (the “Staked Claims”). Image 3 below contains a map showing the locations of the Optioned Claims and the Staked Claims.

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman commented: “I am excited about this option to add to our district-scale land package at the Golden Rose Project. TRU has moved aggressively in recent weeks to expand our footprint here, and the presence of visible gold on the Optioned Claims further bolsters the geological merit of Golden Rose. Having now tactically consolidated some of the most prospective property within and surrounding Golden Rose, for the time being we are satisfied that we have achieved one of our strategic objectives previously announced only one month ago on June 15th, namely property acquisitions contiguous with or close to the Company’s existing properties. With these acquisitions completed at Golden Rose, we believe we are ideally positioned for further discoveries there as we continue to carry out our comprehensive ground-level exploration program in anticipation of drilling Golden Rose later this year.”

Highlights

• Due diligence sampling and panning on the Optioned Claims by TRU management consistently returned numerous pristine to modified gold grains. These gold grains were found within a few meters of a partially exposed hardpan gossan (oxidized rock formation often found above mineral occurrences) consisting of iron oxide encrusted quartz grains and other minerals. (Image 1)

• A single large sample collected on the Optioned Claims by TRU was sent to Overburden Drilling Management Limited (“ODM”) of Ottawa, Ontario, whose analysis identified 97 visible gold grains that may have a nearby source. (Image 2)

Optioned Claims

Barry Greene, P.Geo., TRU’s Vice-President of Property Development, and Pearce Bradley, P.Geo., TRU’s Exploration Manager, both visited the Optioned Claims on a recent due diligence visit and collected a single 12.9 kilogram wet sample for submission to ODM for analysis. Mr. Greene also discovered the gossan during such visit.

ODM’s analysis concluded: “The gold grains were likely subjected to minimal water transport as evidenced by the high proportion of pristine + modified morphologies and relatively high abundance of silt-sized grains suggesting a nearby source. The high calculated [heavy mineral concentrate] Au value suggests that the source, if bedrock, may be high grade.”

Separate from TRU’s sample, sampling and panning of beach sand and gravel over approximately 1 km by the Optionor reportedly returned numerous pristine to modified gold grains. The Optionor reported that the partially-exposed gossan identified by TRU was examined in several locations under the roots of upright trees.

Barry Greene, Vice-President of Property Development of TRU, added: “After panning so many pristine gold grains, we were pleasantly surprised to discover the hardpan gossan exposed under the roots of a nearby growing tree. As the roots were exposed to waves only during stormy weather, the gossan is not well exposed. Hopefully, the gossan represents the surface expression of a mineralized source which would enhance TRU’s Golden Rose Project. The mode of occurrence and morphology of the gold grains are indicative of being derived from a local erosional surface. As it lies along the intersection of several structures, the Optioned Claims will be an immediate target for our exploration team already working in the area.”

TRU’s exploration team is already adapting the Company’s field program to aggressively explore the Optioned Claims through soil sampling, ground geophysics and trenching. TRU plans to move all crews to the Optioned Claims shortly once exploration permits are in place.

Terms of the Option Agreement

In order to acquire a 100% interest in the Optioned Claims, the Company must make the following cash payments and issue the following common shares in the capital of the Company (“TRU Shares”):

In addition, the Company must fund $50,000 in exploration expenditures on the Optioned Claims on or before July 13, 2022.

Upon exercise of the option, TRU will grant the Optionor a 2.0% net smelter returns royalty from any future mineral production at the Optioned Claims, of which 1.0% can be repurchased by the Company for $1,000,000 at any time.

Following the Company’s exercise of the option should the Company define a National Instrument 43-101-compliant measured and indicated mineral resource estimate equal to at least 1,000,000 gold ounces (at 1 g/t cut-off) on the Optioned Claims, the Company shall make an additional cash payment of $250,000 to the Optionor.

The Option Agreement remains subject to regulatory approval by the TSX Venture Exchange.

Staked Claims

In addition to, but separate from, the Optioned Claims, TRU has also acquired, via indirect staking, 24 km2 of mineral claims contiguous with the Optioned Claims. The Staked Claims are being promptly transferred into TRU’s ownership for no consideration beyond reimbursement of staking costs.

The Staked Claims are contiguous with the existing Golden Rose Project and the Optioned Claims. Taken together with all other Golden Rose property transactions announced by TRU during June and July of 2021, TRU has more than doubled the property package from its initial size of 105.0 km2 to a total of 215.25 km2, all along and adjacent to the deposit-bearing Cape Ray - Valentine Lake Shear Zone.

National Instrument 43-101 Disclosures

The 12.9kg wet beach sand sample was collected independently by TRU and was pre-screened in the field to remove coarse material. The sample was placed in a large plastic sample bag, sealed and shipped by TRU to ODM. At the lab, ODM collected one +/-300 gram archival split. The sample was panned for gold, PGM’s and fine-grained metallic indicator minerals. Shaking table concentrates were refined by heavy liquid separation at S.G 3.3 to create Heavy Mineral Concentrates (HMCs)

The samples presented herein are selective by nature, and values reported may not represent the true grade or style of mineralization across the Golden Rose Project, including the Optioned Claims and/or the Staked Claims. The potential grades are conceptual in nature; there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource; and it is uncertain whether further exploration will result in any targets being delineated as a mineral resource.

TRU Precious Metals Completes Phase 1 Drill Program at 100%-Owned Twilite Gold Project in Central Newfoundland

Fredericton, New Brunswick – July 07, 2021 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU; OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that, further to its press releases on June 1 and June 8, 2021, the Phase 1 diamond drilling program has been completed at its 100%-owned Twilite Gold Project in Central Newfoundland (“Twilite Gold”). Drilling focused on a previously identified target that the Company has now dubbed the “Fort Knox Gold Zone”.

Highlights

• Phase 1 drilling has been successfully completed on time at the Fort Knox Gold Zone for a total of 2,577 meters in 12 drill holes.

• Drilling has successfully intersected the widest sections of the mineralized shear zone to date.

• Extensive mineralized quartz breccia encountered in multiple drill holes.

• Regionally significant mineralized conglomerate, akin to the Rogerson Lake Conglomerate, has been intersected in multiple holes.

• Core logging and sampling are underway with two core saws. Excellent core recoveries were achieved through mineralized zones, unlike historic drilling by former property owner Fort Knox Gold Resources.

• Receipt and evaluation of complete Phase 1 assay results are expected over approximately the next 6 to 8 weeks, with results to be publicly disclosed in batches on a rolling basis once sufficient volumes of data are available.

Drill Program Preliminary Results

Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and Director of TRU, commented: “The first phase of drilling in 2021 at Twilite Gold has gone exceptionally well. We drilled 2,577 metres of NQ core, more than initially forecast, testing several additional high-potential gold targets. We anticipate a steady flow of drill results from Twilite Gold over the coming weeks and months, with results from these holes pending.”

The drill program consisted of 12 NQ boreholes situated along a deep-seated, multi-kilometer, west-northwest trending structure (see Figure 1). The drilling focused within the Fort Knox Gold Zone, and specifically an approximately 200m strike length section of this structure near the intersection with a northeast trending mineralized structure that is also auriferous in historic drilling. Improving on historic drilling, TRU’s Phase 1 drilling has intersected an extensive shear zone containing areas of moderate to intense sericite and silica alteration and including wide areas of polyphase quartz veining and quartz breccias containing sulphide mineralization including pyrite, arsenopyrite and stibnite. The alteration and mineralization is coincident with a broad portion of the 600m long mineralized structure identified in the detailed magnetic survey completed by TRU and announced on December 8, 2020.

Figure 1: Twilite Gold Phase 1 Drill Program – Drillhole Location Map (on detailed ground magnetics)

TRU has not verified the historical grab sample assay results contained in this press release and is not relying on them as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. Note that grab sample results are select samples and are not necessarily representative of mineralization on Twilite Gold. Readers are cautioned that these potential grades are conceptual in nature; there has been insufficient exploration by the Company or its qualified person at Twilite Gold 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.

It is noteworthy that several holes intersected hematitic and silicified polylithic conglomerate, locally containing sulphide mineralization. Such polylithic conglomerate is texturally similar to, and may represent the strike extension of, the Rogerson Lake Conglomerate (“RLC”).

The RLC has already been mapped in proximity to Twilite Gold and is considered to be an important expression of the regionally extensive Cape Ray - Valentine Lake- Shear Zone. Regionally, the RLC (or its equivalent) is found directly associated with gold mineralization at Matador Mining’s Cape Ray deposit; Marathon Gold’s Valentine Gold deposit; and Canterra Minerals’Wilding Lake project.

TRU Co-Founder and CEO Joel Freudman added: “We are excited to have completed TRU’s first-ever drill program, which we chose to carry out at Twilite Gold a mere seven months after acquiring the project. We are very encouraged that a promising variety of mineralization is evident in the cores, often with good continuity, which supports our belief that Twilite Gold is well-situated along the deposit-bearing Cape Ray – Valentine Lake Shear Zone. We believe that this targeted first round of drilling will indeed be the starting point to help the Company unearth the inherent value we believe exists at Twilite Gold.”

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

All NQ core is sampled, cut by core saw, and split by Company personnel, and put into bags with unique sample tags for identification. 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 1000 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. 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.
