TYE Troymet Exploration Corp.

Troymet Exploration Corp. (TSX VENTURE:TYE) ("Troymet" or the "Company") reports
the winter phase of the 2011 reconnaissance diamond drilling program on the Key
gold-silver project is complete. In total 1,576.8 metres were drilled with nine
holes completed and three holes abandoned in broken ground and/or thick
overburden. 


Approximately 12.6 kilometres of induced polarization ("IP") survey were also
completed in the area of Good News Lake. The IP survey identified a large
anomaly over 1.2 kilometres in length that is coincident with the gold-in-soil
anomalies along the GN Fault. IP anomalies were also identified along the East
Fault.


Four holes tested targets on the Crag grid on the west side of the property,
including two coincident IP/gold-in-soil/surface gold targets and two VTEM
targets. The VTEM anomalies appear to be associated with fault/breccia zones in
felsic to intermediate volcanics with local vein/disseminated pyrite. The
IP/gold-in-soil/surface gold targets comprise silicified and pyritized (trace to
1%) felsic to intermediate volcanics.


Five widely-spaced holes tested coincident IP/gold-in-soil/structural zones on
the Bluff and Butte grids in the area of Good News Lake. Two holes spaced 200
metres apart tested targets on the GN Fault. A third hole tested a target
approximately 180 metres west of the fault. The fourth hole tested a target on
the East Fault, and the fifth hole tested a target within the intrusive. All
holes intersected varying amounts of disseminated and vein/veinlet controlled
pyrite mineralization. A drill hole location map can be viewed at

The 100% owned Key project is located 125 km southwest of Vanderhoof, British
Columbia and immediately adjoins the Blackwater project of Richfield Ventures
Corp. The recently completed reconnaissance diamond drilling program was the
first ever on this large property (8,854 hectares). 


Troymet plans to expand the prospecting, soil sampling and ground geophysics to
cover the remainder of the property after spring break-up. To-date, less than a
third of the property has been explored in any detail. As well, the Company has
identified drill targets in areas of rugged topography that were not accessible
during the winter program, and will be tested when drilling resumes after
break-up. 


The 2011 winter IP and diamond drilling program was under the management of
Casselman Geological Services Ltd. All samples have been shipped to ALS Chemex,
Vancouver, BC, an ISO 9001:2000 accredited facility. Assays will be released
once received and evaluated.
