AIRBORNE GEOPHYSICS AND GROUND
EXPLORATION COMPLETED BY USGS ON
TROY MINERALS LAKE OWEN PROJECT
November 14, 2023 – Vancouver, B.C., Troy Minerals Inc. (“Troy” or the “Company”)
(CSE: TROY; OTCQB: TROYF) is pleased to announce that the USGS (United States Geologic
Survey) has completed an airborne magnetics and radiometric survey in Wyoming which included
the Company’s Lake Owen Project in Wyoming, USA, located approximately 50km southwest of
Laramie, Wyoming.
As part of the US Government’s Critical Metals strategy and their accompanying Earth MRI program,
the USGS has shown great interest in the region which has led to the completion of an airborne
geophysical survey over the Lake Owen Complex that included flight lines of 100- metre line spacing
over the Company’s Lake Owen Project area - all at no cost to the Company.
The Lake Owen Project, formerly known as SW2, is a Proterozoic layered mafic intrusion complex
with a long history of exploration for platinum group elements and is similar in style to the Stillwater
Complex and the Merensky Reef of South Africa.
The USGS’ focus, and Troy’s, is to support and explore the layered mafic intrusive at Lake Owen for
critical metals including Titanium, Vanadium, and Platinum Group Elements (PGE).
In addition to the airborne program, USGS geologists visited the Lake Owen project and performed
“boots on the outcrop” field work.
Five days were spent on the project by the USGS, sampling a few transects perpendicular to the
layering, focusing on the Lower Zone. Magnetic susceptibility measurements were collected along
the way and targeted sampling of the more magnetic outcrops. Also sampled was the contact between
the Lower and Upper zones, the chill margin at the base of the complex Proterozoic-Archean contact,
and some of the felsic units (the quartz diorite and orthogneiss) in the footwall.
Forty-two (42) rock samples were collected for thin section and major/trace element geochemistry.
This will include vanadium and titanium concentrations. Analysis will also include PGE
geochemistry, Sm-Nd isotopes, and Re-Os isotopes.
Project data and reports from this airborne and ground survey are expected to be shared with the
Company in the coming weeks.
