TRU Precious Metals Confirms Second District-Scale Gold Trend Through Soil Sampling Program at Golden Rose Project
TRU Precious Metals Confirms Second District-Scale Gold Trend
Through Soil Sampling Program at Golden Rose Project
Fredericton, New Brunswick – November 24, 2021 –TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU;
OTCQB:TRUIF; FSE:706) (“TRU” or the “Company”) is pleased to report recently-received soil sampling results
from its flagship Golden Rose Project (“Golden Rose”) in Newfoundland, Canada.
Golden Rose is a regional-scale land package covering approximately 236 square kilometres (km2) in the Central
Newfoundland Gold Belt, including approximately 45 km of strike length along the deposit-bearing Cape Ray -
Valentine Lake Shear Zone between Marathon Gold Corp.’s Valentine Gold Project to the northeast and Matador
Mining Ltd.’s (“Matador”) Cape Ray Gold Project to the southwest.
Highlights
• Confirmation of a district-scale gold anomalous trend over approximately 20 kilometres associated with
a district-scale shear zone , which extends onto King George IV area of Golden Rose where TRU is
currently drilling
• Delineation of several discrete clusters of highly anomalous gold values
• Multiple trenching targets have been identified and gold anomalies are open for expansion
• Polymetallic signatures in gold/copper indicated in both rocks and soils along this structure
Barry Greene, VP of Property Development and a Director of TRU, commented: “As soon as we plotted the data
and looked at it in the context of the regional magnetic geophysical signatures, I couldn’t help but think back to
the early days at the Valentine Lake project. The scale and scope of this newly identified soil anomalous trend on
Golden Rose reminded me of the regional scale soil anomalous trend I saw when I first started working on the
Valentine Lake project in 1988, in the early discovery days. As we were trenching at Valentine Lake and
uncovering gold mineralized veins, we were following the soil anomalies along the Valentine Lake regional
structural break. It’s like looking at the Valentine Lake soils data from 33 years ago.”
Sampling Results
TRU has received almost all of the soils and rock analytical data collected during the 2021 field season , which
has confirmed a new district-scale anomalous gold trend at Golden Rose over approximately 20 km of strike
length. This data further solidifies the Company’s belief in the exploration potential of the shear zone/thrust fault
contact between the Windsor Point Group and the King George IV ophiolite and the Rainy Lake complex gabbro
along the northwest side of Golden Rose. TRU also believes that the data confirms it has opened a new, previously
unrecognized area for exploration.
As the shear zone wraps around the ophiolites (Figure 1), the ophiolites appear to be structurally dissected, creating
a distinct series of likely brittle second and third order structures. The structural architecture can be imaged in the
aerial magnetic data (Figure 2). This will be a priority for expansion of future soil sampling to fully delineate the
anomalous trend.
At the north end of this newly identified regional trend, rock sampling from bedrock and from local float confirms
a gold-copper signature at the Jacob’s Pond gold prospect. Following along the Jacob’s Pond trend to the
southwest, in association with this anomalous soils data, TRU’s field crews have collected several heavily copper
mineralized samples including one sample which assayed 14.3 grams per tonne (g/t) gold, 11.0% copper, 368 g/t
silver and 0.12% antimony (Figure 3).

Joel Freudman, Co-Founder and CEO of TRU, added: “I am very pleased that our Exploration team has identified
a significant and highly-prospective new district-scale structure at Golden Rose . As this is in addition to the 45
km section of the Valentine Lake Shear Zone transecting Golden Rose, we now have much more high-priority
real estate for exploration along this structural corridor, which we think may correlate with the Cape Ray Shear
Zone running up from Matador’s Cape Ray deposits . As an added bonus, early indications in our soil and rock
samples suggest this structure could have polymetallic potential. We remain hard at work in our efforts to unlock
value for our shareholders from our flagship Golden Rose Project.”
The Company is considering an expansion of its regional exploration program in early 2022 along this newly-
recognized regional structure, which may include an IP survey over the winter ice, in order to lay the groundwork
for a spring 2022 trenching and/or drilling program on newly-advanced targets.
National Instrument 43-101 Disclaimers
Note that soil, rock and float samples are selective by nature, and values reported may not represent the true grade
or style of mineralization at Golden Rose . Readers are cautioned that these potential grades are conceptual in
nature; there has been insufficient exploration by the Company or its qualified person at Golden Rose to define a
mineral resource or mineral reserve; and it is uncertain whether further e xploration will result in these targets
being delineated as a mineral resource or mineral reserve.
