TriMetals Mining Inc. Continues to Extend Mineralization to the East and South of the Jumbo Resource Area at the Gold Springs Project in Nevada and Utah

14.12.2016  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - December 14, 2016) - TriMetals Mining Inc. (TSX: TMI) (OTCQX: TMIAF) (the "Company")is pleased to announce the results of the second round of drill holes (6 holes) from the southern end of the present Jumbo resource area (the "Jumbo Main Zone"). The Company believes that these new results, as well as the earlier reported set of results (PR 16-22 of October 26, 2016), clearly demonstrate an extension of the mineralization to the east and south of the southern end of the Jumbo Main Zone which is located towards the northern end of the 5 km long Jumbo Structural Trend gold target.

New Footwall Zone Discovered:

One of the new holes, J-16-009, indicates the existence of a new footwall zone to the west of the presently known mineral system potentially with a 200-metre strike length within the footprint of the presently defined PEA pit design.

Drill Hole Thickness (m) Gold (g/t) Silver (g/t) Gold Equivalent* (g/t)
J-16-009 10.7 1.05 4.91 1.13
And a second zone of mineralization higher in the hole
J-16-009 25.9 0.27 7.94 0.40

* Gold Equivalent ("AuEq") calculated using a 61.9 gold to silver ratio and assumes 100% metallurgical recoveries. True width is approximately 80-90% of Thickness.

Jumbo Main Zone Extended 60 Metres to the South:

RC holes J-16-014 and J-16-015 are located approximately 60 metres further south than the previously reported J-16-003 and show strengthening gold mineralization to the south, including 7.6m@2.38 g/t AuEq in J-16-014 and 9.1m@2.15 g/t AuEq in hole J-16-015. This is the furthest south that we have drilled in this location.

Drill Hole   Thickness (m)   Gold (g/t)   Silver (g/t)   Gold Equivalent* (g/t)

* Gold Equivalent ("AuEq") calculated using a 61.9 gold to silver ratio and assumes 100% metallurgical recoveries. True width is approximately 80-90% of Thickness.

Ralph Fitch, President and CEO of the Company, stated, "Drill results again demonstrate that exploration is continuing to expand the footprint of the mineralization. This extension to the mineralization in the Jumbo Main Zone continues the process of drilling-off the 5 km long Jumbo Structural Trend (geophysical target). The Jumbo Main Zone is near the northern end of the Jumbo Structural Trend ("North Jumbo"), the "State Section" is in the middle of the Trend ("Central Jumbo") and the historic Etna mine is at the southern end of the Trend ("South Jumbo"). We have just completed 8 holes in the South Jumbo. We will release the results from these holes in the next several weeks once they have been received from the laboratory. It is important to remember that our mineral resource estimate in North Jumbo is based on drilling approximately 1.3 km of the eastern boundary of the 5 km long geophysical anomaly. Mineralization is present on both the eastern and western boundaries of the anomaly, providing approximately 10 km of target."

RC hole J-16-016 is located on the same east-west line as J-16-03 but 50 m further east. It intersected the down-dip extension of the mineralization seen in J-16-03 (see table below).

RC hole J-16-017 is located 50 metres north of hole J-16-003 in an east-west area of post-mineral structural disturbance and included low grade mineralization. RC hole J-16-008 located approximately 200 metres north of J-16-017 did not intersect the mineralized zone because it has been down-faulted by a fault that strikes north-south approximately along the Easting 761340 (see map).

The table below shows the details of the drill results obtained.

Drill Hole   From (m)   To (m)   Thickness (m)   Gold (g/t)   Silver (g/t)   Gold Equivalent* (g/t)

Qualified Person

The Qualified Person on the Gold Springs property is Randall Moore, Executive Vice President of Exploration - North America of TriMetals Mining Inc. and he has reviewed and approved the content of this press release. The QP verified the data for its geological reasonableness, checked all the inputs and verified the analytical data through an analysis of the blanks and standards submitted with the drill-chip samples.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control

Approximately 10 kg of RC chips were sent to the laboratory for each 1.52 metre drill interval. Fifteen percent of the samples submitted by the Company are blanks and standards for QA/QC purposes. In addition, the laboratory also includes duplicates of samples, standards and blanks. The results of these check assays are reviewed prior to the release of data. All RC chip sample assays are also reviewed for their geological context and checked against the drill logs.

Assay Method

TMI Assays were performed in Sparks, Nevada by Bureau Veritas Mineral Laboratories, an ISO 9001:2000 Certified laboratory. Gold was analyzed by fire assay of a 30-gram sample with an AAS finish with samples assaying greater than 10 g/t re-assayed using a 30-gram sample and a gravity finish. All other elements were analyzed by a four acid leach ICP method coded MA300.

No known drilling, sampling, recovery or other factors have been observed that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data referred to in this news release.

Gold Equivalent

Gold Equivalent (AuEq) in this press release was calculated using a 61.9 gold to silver ratio and assumes 100% metallurgical recoveries.
