Troymet Exploration Corp. (TSX VENTURE:TYE) ("Troymet" or the "Company") reports
the diamond drilling program (6 holes - 867.15 meters) on the North prospect of
its 100% owned Golden Eagle project in British Columbia, has been successfully
completed. 


A 10.5 km pole-dipole induced polarization survey was completed over the West
Gully grid, in September-October 2011. The west Gully target comprises a
granitic intrusive with structurally hosted gold mineralization. Several
chargeability targets were identified including anomalies that occur along
strike of hole N0901 (0.11 g/t gold over 86.84 metres including 0.33 g/t over
15.24 meters (News Release of February 17, 2010)). Three holes tested
chargeability targets over a distance of approximately 500 meters along strike
of hole N0901. The chargeability targets are partly aligned along a drainage
with anomalous gold-in-silt values. One hole was drilled at 180 degrees to N090;
this hole was lost in a cave associated with old workings with the result that
the depth extension of the mineralization was not tested. One hole tested a
chargeability target along the northeast faulted contact of the intrusive.
Drainages rising in this area contain anomalous gold-in-silt values.


One hole was drilled in the Skarn zone before weather conditions forced the
termination of the program. A more extensive helicopter supported drill program
had been planned. This program has now been deferred to 2012. The Skarn zone
comprises an approximately 2.0 km long target. Historic drilling was confined to
approximately 260 meters and intersections ranged from 1.28 g/t gold over 6.0
metres to 7.64 g/t gold over 3.45 metres (News Release - June 25, 2009).
Significant areas of the Skarn zone remain to be drill tested in 2012.


The induced polarization survey was conducted by Aurora Geosciences Ltd. On-site
supervision of the diamond drill program was also provided by Aurora.


The 8,178-hectare Golden Eagle project is located in northwestern British
Columbia, just south of the BC-Yukon border. The South Klondike Highway runs
through the centre of the property, providing excellent access from Whitehorse,
Yukon, 90 kilometres to the north. The project is situated at the southern end
of the Tintina Gold Belt, which contains many intrusion-related gold deposits
such as Pogo (Alaska), Fort Knox (Alaska), Dublin Gulch (Yukon) and the White
Gold property near Dawson City (Yukon). 


The northern portion of the Golden Eagle property is shown by the British
Columbia Geological Survey's stream sediment sampling to contain exceptionally
anomalous values in gold (to 1,080 ppb), gold indicator metals (arsenic,
antimony and mercury) and base metals (BCGS Bulletin 105). Multiple zones of
gold-silver-arsenic-antimony mineralization, including the West Gully and Skarn,
and gold-in-soil anomalies occur in this approx. 5 x 5 kilometre area, known as
the North prospect


Drill core samples are being analyzed by ALS Chemex Labs Ltd. an ISO 9001:2000
certified laboratory. Troymet maintains a QAQC program whereby standard samples
and blanks are inserted into each batch of samples to ensure quality control.
Results will be reported once received, interpreted and validated.
