Troy Minerals' Drill Program Underway at Lake Owen Project
TROY MINERALS' DRILL PROGRAM
UNDERWAY AT LAKE OWEN PROJECT
August 22, 2024 – Vancouver, B.C., Troy Minerals Inc. (“Troy” or the “Company”) (CSE: TROY;
OTCQB: TROYF; FSE: VJ3) is pleased to announce that core drilling is underway on the Company’s
Lake Owen project. The Lake Owen Project is in Wyoming, USA, located approximately 50 km southwest
of Laramie, Wyoming (Figure 1).
Figure 1: Project Location Map
Troy’s drill program targets TiO2 and V2O5 mineralization associated with magnetite in gabbro. Two pad
locations were selected for this first phase of drilling with at least one drill hole planned at each pad (Figure
2). Interpretative cross sections based on historical exploration (surface mapping, geophysical surveys, and
drilling) at the selected pad locations are shown in Figure 3.
The drill holes will target the Lake Owen Intrusive with planned end of hole in the basement rocks.

Other potential mineralization styles include “Reef”-style platinum group element (PGE) horizons, as well
as base metal mineralization at the base of the Lake Owen Complex.
The Lake Owen Complex is a Proterozoic layered mafic intrusion complex with a long history of
exploration for PGEs. Similar in style to the Stillwater Complex in Montana, USA and the Merensky Reef
of South Africa, the Lake Owen Complex is a highly prospective North American-based target for critical
metals like vanadium and titanium but also has strong potential for PGE enrichment and basal base metal
mineralization.

About Troy Minerals Inc.
Troy Minerals is a mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition, exploration, and development
of mineral properties. The Company currently holds interest in three assets.
The Lake Owen project (formerly SW2) is a highly prospective Vanadium, Titanium and Iron ore rich
project that consists of 100 mineral claims located approximately 50km southwest of Laramie, Wyoming
USA. The property target is a Proterozoic Layered Mafic Intrusive host with strong magnetite -rich
cumulates and accompanying V/Ti and Pt/Pd/Au/Rh-bearing sulfide horizons.
The Lac Jacques project is a drive-to project with close infrastructure located approximately 250km north
of Montreal Quebec, Canada and is comprised of 17 claims totaling 994 ha. The Property hosts high grade
REE mineralization at the surface in a structurally controlled and steeply dipping carbonatite dike up to 25
meters thick with multi-kilometer potential.
The Ticktock project, a 1,065-hectare property located within the prolific Golden Triangle region of British
Columbia, Canada, lies 23km northwest of the historic Eskay Creek Mine and sits between the Enduro
Metals Newmont Lake property and the Aben Resources Forrest-Kerr property.
