TRU Precious Metals Advances Phase One Exploration Program at Gander West Property

By: Newsfile

Fredericton, New Brunswick--(Newsfile Corp. - May 25, 2021) - TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV: TRU) (OTCQB: TRUIF) (FSE: 706) ("TRU" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has recently commenced its inaugural mapping, soil sampling, till sampling and prospecting program at its Gander West exploration property in Central Newfoundland (the "Gander West Property" or "Gander West").

The wholly owned Gander West Property consists of 120 claims covering 3,000 hectares of prospective ground. The Grander West Property is located near the Trans-Canada Highway and approximately 16 kilometres (km) from the Keats zone at New Found Gold Corp.'s Queensway Project, where New Found Gold reported drill intercepts on May 21, 2021 of 146.2 grams per tonne gold over 25.6 meters.1

The Gander West Property is mostly unexplored and is located in the midst of a well-known gold belt, along a strong NE-SW structural lineament within a magnetic-low corridor, and immediately south of a prominent magnetic-high anomaly. High-grade gold occurrences (>50g/t Au in grab samples) occur in quartz veins 2.5 km southwest of the Gander West Property.2 Additionally, a high-grade gold occurrence known as Little Joanna occurs approximately 5 km along strike to the northeast. Historic grab sampling from Little Joanna returned values ranging from 40 parts per billion (ppb) Au to 734 g/t Au.3 The local geological features and nearby showings are set out in the two images below.

Vice President of Property Development of TRU, Barry Greene, commented, "After the first week of exploration at Gander West, crews have already collected grab samples of quartz veins containing sulphide mineralization and have noted the presence of structural features consistent with a northeast-southwest trending fault system. This is consistent with our geophysical and topographic interpretation of a regional scale structural linear."

The Gander West Property is already permitted for exploration, including ground geophysics, geochemical surveys, and prospecting.

TRU expects this limited field program to yield valuable geological and geochemical data to aid in defining targets for a more detailed phase two follow-up. The presence of high-grade gold occurrences along strike both northeast and southwest of Gander West, elevated lake sediment geochemistry on the property, and the prominent topographical and geophysical lineament along the full 10 km length of the property, presents a solid model for initial groundwork.

Co-Founder and CEO of TRU, Joel Freudman, added, "We believe that Gander West holds exciting potential. Less than a year ago, we embarked on building a district-scale land package focusing on the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt. Today, we have multiple properties comprising a commanding portfolio all within this prolific gold region, and Gander West is one of these properties. We think the proximity of Gander West to New Found Gold's bonanza discovery hole is a solid case to begin systematic early-stage exploration on the property, which has seen barely any historical work. We are cognizant that an early understanding of structural geology at Gander West and the broader region will only benefit us as we prioritize work on our various projects."
