TRIGON REPORTS 8M OF 6.56% COPPER EXTENDING OPEN PIT
MINERALIZATION , NAMIBIA
TORONTO, November 11, 2021 – Trigon Metals Inc. (TSX-V: TM) (“Trigon” or the “Company”) is
pleased to announce that recent drilling has unexpectedly intercepted high-grade mineralization
that has the potential to increase both the resource tonnes and deposit grade.
Geotechnical drill testing of the rock conditions around the planned open pits was completed to
confirm rock stability for mine design purposes . Core from these holes, outside of the currently
designed pit shells , the core in the holes showed visible mineralization and were sent to be
assayed.
Four of the geotechnical holes contained significant amounts of copper, representing the potential
for an increase of tonnage, of grade and of the life of the open mine.
Highlights of the drill results are as follows:
• Hole (GTBH010): 8m intersection of 6.56% Cu which include s 5m of 9.15% Cu @ (66 -
74m).
• Hole (GTBH010): 3m intersection of 1.36% Cu @(89-92m).
• Hole (GTBH004): 2m intersections of 1.2% Cu @(57-59m) and 1.4 % Cu @(75-77m).
• Hole (GTBH013): 4m intersection of 1.72% Cu which includes 2m of 3.3% Cu @(57-61m).
• Hole (BH21-09): 2m intersection of 1.27% Cu @(52-54m).

The holes were completed in September and confirmed the ground stability conditions, this data
has been used in the design of our planned open pits. Assays for the holes with visible
mineralization have just been received.
Commenting, Jed Richardson, Pres ident and CEO of Trigon, said, “These results illustrate the
additional potential of the Kombat Mine and represent only a fraction of the 30 kilometres of strike
length within the Company’s property.
About Kombat Mine
The Kombat Copper Project is the flagship project of Trigon Metals Inc. , with the Company’s
mining and prospecting licence areas covering an area of more than 7,500 ha in the Otavi
Mountainlands in Namibia. The Kombat Project is comprised of three mining licences, which
produced approximately 12.46 million tonnes of Copper between 1962 and 2008, at a grade of
2.62%. The other two mining licences are within close proximity to Kombat at Gross Otavi and
Harasib, which are believed to be highly prospective for Lead and Zinc. In addition, the Company
also holds an interest in two exclusive prospecting licences, which represent a potential strike
extension of Kombat.
