Trillium Acquires Land in Beardmore-Geraldton Gold Belt

Trillium North Minerals Ltd.("Trillium")(TSX VENTURE:TNM) is pleased to announce
that it has secured a land position in the Beardmore-Geraldton greenstone belt
in north-central Ontario. Following on Kodiak's discoveries at its Hercules
property, Trillium initiated a review of the belt and has staked in excess of
4800 hectares approximately 50 kilometres north-northeast of the Kodiak's
Hercules discovery.


The Beardmore-Geraldton mineral belt has produced 4.1 million ounces of gold
from several deposits located along its 84 kilometre east-west extent, and is up
to 21 kilometres wide. Favourable Archean metasedimentary and metavolcanic
formations within the belt have been intruded by younger igneous stocks that are
thought to have remobilized metals into favourable greenstone and intrusive
hosted shear zones and associated quartz veins. Kodiak's Hercules project,
located near the center of the belt, has concentrated on one of these intrusive
centers. The Trillium exploration team has identified what it believes to be a
similar setting to Kodiak's Hercules project and has acquired it through
staking.


Trillium believes this entire area is under-explored and contains favourable
geologic potential for the discovery of economic gold and base metal deposits.
Trillium has initiated an extensive review of all available data for the area in
preparation for future exploration programs and in aiding in Trillium's pursuit
of further acquisitions, to increase its land holdings in the belt.


Michael Thompson, P.Geo, a qualified person under National Instrument 43-101,
has approved the technical content of this news release and will supervise the
exploration on the project.


Elliot Strashin, CEO, is quoted, "With this acquisition Trillium is now actively
exploring in three Ontario Gold Camps, Beardmore-Geraldton, Timmins and Pickle
Lake."


In other news, the drilling on the West Porcupine property has been completed
and all assays have been received. A total of 1029 meters were drilled in 8
holes. Results include 1.06 g/T Au over 1.00 meters in hole WPP-07-001, 2.20 g/T
Au over 1.00 meters and 4.06 g/T Au over 0.80 meters, both in hole WPP-07-002.
Although no economic grade intersections were encountered, management is
encouraged by the results which are being incorporated into the geological model
in preparation for future programs.
