TYE Troymet Exploration Corp.

Troymet Exploration Corp. (TSX VENTURE:TYE) ("Troymet" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce it has signed a formal joint venture agreement with a
subsidiary of HudBay Minerals Inc. ("Hudbay"), in respect of two claims (DYC3606
& DOL78; 252 hectares) that form part of its McClarty Lake project located near
Snow Lake, Manitoba. The participating interests are Hudbay - 60% and Troymet -
40%. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, Hudbay must contribute
$1,151,052 in joint venture expenditures before Troymet is required to fund its
participating interest. Thereafter, Hudbay and Troymet will share all future
exploration and development expenditures pro-rata based on their participating
interests. 


Kieran Downes, President and CEO of Troymet, stated: "We are pleased to have
concluded the formal joint venture agreement and look forward to advancing the
property together with Hudbay. We believe the McClarty Lake project is a
property of substantial merit with excellent discovery potential for a precious
metal rich VMS deposit(s). We also believe Hudbay is the best partner to explore
and develop the project."


The McClarty Lake project lies approx. 45 kilometres south of Hudbay's Chisel
North and Lalor VMS deposits. The zinc-copper-gold Discovery zone found by
Troymet in 2007 exhibits a VMS mineralization style and associated alteration
system that is similar to that associated with the Chisel North and Lalor Lake
deposits. Hudbay's 2011 drilling extended the Discovery zone to 300 metres
vertical depth.


Troymet also owns a 100% interest in three claims (MAC-1, MAC-2 & MAC-3; 344
hectares) that adjoin the joint venture claims. Exploration by Troymet has
identified the northern extension of the horizon that hosts the Discovery zone
on the joint venture claims, indicating the presence of a +2,000 metre long
stratigraphic horizon that carries base metal mineralization in the two locales
where tested. The identification of a productive, base metal mineralized horizon
extending through Troymet's 100% owned claims increases the possibility of a
significant VMS discovery on Troymet's 100% owned ground.
