Zones
Vancouver, B.C. – February 6, 2025 - Troy Minerals Inc. ("Troy" or the "Company") (CSE:
TROY;
OTCQB:
TROYF;
FSE:
VJ3)
is
pleased
to
announce
that
it
has
received
results
from
a
sampling
and
mapping
program
on
its
100%
owned
Table
Mountain
Silica
Project,
located
near
Golden,
British
Columbia,
Canada.
Key Highlights
●
Three
distinct
zones
of
high-purity
silica
mineralization
identified
within
the
Mount
Wilson
Quartzite
Formation.
●
98.86%
SiO₂
over
a
total
of
62.11
metres
of
channel
sampling
in
five
channels
at
the
main
Table
Mountain
Zone.
●
Outcrop
sampling
returned
98.18%
to
99.74%
SiO
2
from
45
samples
at
Table
Mountain
Zone,
97.83%
to
99.49%
SiO₂
from
13
samples
at
South
Zone,
and
95.82%
to
99.82%
SiO₂
from
29
samples
at
Southeast
Zone.
*
●
Very
low
deleterious
elements
identified
in
all
samples.
President of Troy Minerals Inc., Yannis Tsitos commented: "These comprehensive maiden
assay
results
validate
the
potential
of
Table
Mountain
as
a
key
high-purity
silica
asset.
Sampling
confirmed
the
exceptional
quality
and
consistency
of
silica
mineralization
across
the
Project.
With
grades
reaching
98
to
99%
SiO₂
across
multiple
zones
of
extensive
outcrop
exposure,
and
sampling
ranging
from
98.18%
to
99.74%
SiO₂
at
the
main
Table
Mountain
Zone,
we
are
rapidly
advancing
our
understanding
of
this
strategic
asset.
The
Project's
infrastructure
advantages
and
proximity
to
existing
silica
operations
further
enhance
its
potential
as
we
work
to
establish
Troy
as
a
significant
player
in
the
North
American
high-purity
silica
market,
positioning
the
Company
for
long-term
growth."
The sampling program consisted of both systematic grab samples and channel samples, with
a
total
of
110
grab
samples
(107
outcrop
and
3
float)
taken
within
the
property
area
and
70
channel
samples
collected
from
62.11
metres
within
74.16
metres
of
channels.

Outcrop Sampling Results
Three main areas returned significant high-purity silica results: the Table Mountain Zone,
located
at
the
north
end
of
the
Property,
the
South
Zone,
and
the
Southeast
Zone.
The most extensively sampled zone was the Table Mountain Zone, which returned an
average
grade
of
98.90%
SiO₂
from
45
grab
samples
(42
outcrop,
3
float),
with
values
ranging
from
98.18%
to
99.74%
SiO₂.
Additionally,
from
these
samples
the
following
average
values
were
returned:
0.31%
Fe₂O₃,
0.01%
CaO,
0.14%
Al₂O₃,
0.02%
MgO,
0.01%
TiO₂,
0.01%

,
and
14ppm

The remainder of samples were either taken near the contacts of the adjacent units or from
non-quartzite
outcrops
of
the
adjacent
Glenogle
shale
(east
contact)
and
Beaverfoot
dolomite
(west
contact)
and
were
not
included
in
the
statistical
summary
of
the
quartzite
samples
taken.
Channel Sampling Results
Channel sampling was conducted at the Table Mountain Zone, with results consistently
similar
to
the
outcrop
sampling
results.
Sampling
procedure
consisted
of
continuous
chip
sampling
along
a
3-centimetre
cut
channel.
Samples
were
taken
continuously
over
1-metre
intervals
perpendicular
to
the
strike
orientation
of
the
outcrop,
with
the
sample
sequence
starting
from
the
southwest
end
of
the
channel.
Intervals
shorter
than
20
centimetres
were
combined
with
the
previous
interval.
66
continuous
chip
channel
samples
were
collected
over
62.11
metres
within
74.16
metres
in
five
channels,
returning
a
weighted
average
of
98.86%
SiO₂.
Four additional duplicates were taken as QA/QC checks and passed validation. Sample
density
is
sufficient
to
indicate
the
accurate
representation
of
the
underlying
mineralization.
