Justin Reid, CEO of Troilus, commented, “The entire Troilus team is proud to present results that clearly demonstrate the potential for our project to become a major North American copper and gold producer. The FS outlines a generational-scale asset, with a 22-year mine life and compelling economics, both at discounted and current metal prices. The project has reasonable CAPEX and capital intensity, including bottom quartile operating costs among the major Canadian gold mines. With a life-of-mine average payable gold production of nearly 245,000 ounces annually, more than 17 million pounds of copper and nearly 447,000 ounces of silver, Troilus stands not only as a strategically significant project that aligns with the Province of Quebec’s priority on the production of strategic metals but is also positioned to be amongst the largest scale, lowest cost gold and copper projects across Canada. In today’s challenging market, the value of our existing infrastructure has become even more critical, reducing the capital intensity required to build project infrastructure and providing ongoing access to low-cost renewable energy supplied by Hydro-Quebec. The Troilus Project has been designed to minimize the environmental footprint of the future operation including using a cyanide free process, engaging in progressive reclamation, making use of the existing tailings facility and minimizing GHG emissions through reliance on sustainable energy sources. The Study provides a strong foundation to continue building and growing the Company. Our geology team has proven their ability to identify new targets and rapidly add significant ounces, and we believe there is strong potential to further expand the scale of this project and extend the mine life beyond the 22 years presented in this Study with further exploration and drilling. With the FS now complete, Troilus is focused on next steps, namely the finalization of the Environmental & Social Impact Assessment and ongoing exploration of the geological potential of the 435 km² Troilus property. We look forward to working with our partners in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region, including the Cree Nation of Mistissini, the Cree Nation Government and Grand Council of the Crees, the local communities of Chibougamau and Chapais, as well as the governments of the Province of Quebec and Canada, to advance the Troilus Project.” Exploration Upside The Troilus Project is held within a large exploration land package totaling 435 km² within the prospective Frôtet-Evans Greenstone Belt. Numerous targets ranging from grass roots geochemical anomalies to early-stage drill targets are actively being explored and advanced by the Company, both near mine and regionally. In late 2022, the ‘X22 Zone’ was discovered along an oblique structural trend immediately adjacent to the previously mined Z87 pit, and now hosts 1.19M ounces AuEq Indicated mineral resources, highlighting the prospectivity and continued opportunity for discovery at both the mine site and within the belt. X22 remains open, particularly at depth, and has previously not been drill tested below 250 metres from surface. A 25,000m drill program is underway, largely focused across the ‘Gap Zone’ between Z87 and the SW zones, and at depth at the X22 Zone. Using multiple layers of geoscientific data and the latest understanding of the deposit genetics, a spectrum of targets were developed that range from strategic resource expansion to those more conceptual in nature. Next Steps The Company will be focused on the following activities over the next 24 months: Completion and submission of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (“ESIA”) by the end of 2024. Progressing the Federal and Provincial permitting processes, which were initiated in May 2022, and obtaining all final permits to commence construction.

Posted at 22/1/2024 20:42 by stu31 TROILUS PROVIDES A RECAP OF 2023 ACCOMPLISHMENTS & AN OUTLOOK FOR 2024January 9, 2024, Montreal, Quebec – Troilus Gold Corp. (TSX: TLG; OTCQX: CHXMF; FRA: CM5R)(“Troilus To our valued shareholders and stakeholders, As we close another year, it is with pride that I look back on the significant accomplishments Troilus has made in 2023. Despite a turbulent year in the junior mining sector, compounded by the unforeseen challenges of the devastating forest fires in Quebec, our steadfast focus and commitment significantly enhanced the Troilus Project, establishing it as one of the largest undeveloped goldcopper deposits in North America. As a founder and significant shareholder of the Company, I share the sentiment of aspiring for greater returns and am excited about the potential that 2024 holds. This year will see major de-risking milestones that promise to solidify Troilus as a frontrunner among development-stage mining companies, positioning the Company and our valued shareholders for success. Key developments of 2023: Successful Exploration and Expansion: Building on our 2022 drilling success, we continued to focus on the definition and expansion of Zone X22. Our efforts here were instrumental in significantly contributing to the growth of our October 2023 Mineral Resource Estimate(“MRE& Significant Mineral Resource Growth: The 2023 MRE showcased a substantial increase compared to our 2020 estimate – the Indicated category growing 126% in ounces and 127% in tonnes, with nearly all Inferred Resources from the 2020 MRE transitioning to the Indicated category. World-Class Project Scale: The Troilus gold-copper deposit now hosts one of the largest undeveloped gold resources in North America, with a gold equivalent mineral resource of 11.21 Moz* in the Indicated category and 1.80 Moz AuEq* in the Inferred category. Large Copper Resource: Copper represents a meaningful proportion of the Troilus deposit with a total of 729.5 million pounds grading 0.07% in the Indicated category. Permitting and Community Engagement: We've made steady progress with Federal and Provincial permitting processes, conducting successful ongoing public consultations with impacted communities and progressing the completion of our Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (“ESIA”) SUCCESSFUL EXPLORATION PROGRAM 2023 reflected the focused and dedicated efforts of the exploration team, particularly with the success of the drilling program at Zone X22 which has become synonymous with some of the highest,thickest, and most continuous grades at Troilus. ~22,000 metres were drilled at X22, expanding the zone's mineral footprint from 300m to approximately 1km, and confirming a consistent pattern of continuous high-grade nearsurface structures along this strike length. X22 returned among the highest results in Troilus’ history, including 1.80 g/t AuEq over 80m (X22-23-071), 19.9 g/t AuEq over 7m (X22-23-030), 103.8 g/t AuEq over 1m (X22-23-042) and 14.7 g/t AuEq over 7m (X22-23-067). X22 represents a small portion of our total drilling at Troilus, however this zone significantly contributed to our resource growth, and the proximity of this zone to the main mineral corridor made evident the potential impact it could have on the economic modeling of our project in the upcoming Feasibility Study. UPDATED MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE SHOWED GROWTH & SCALE In October, we delivered an updated mineral resource estimate of 11.21 Moz AuEq (508.3Mt with an average grade of 0.69 g/t AuEq*) in the Indicated category and 1.80 Moz AuEq (80.5Mt with an average grade of 0.69 g/t AuEq*), marking an impressive 447% increase in Indicated AuEq ounces since our inception. This updated MRE firmly established Troilus among the largest undeveloped gold-copper deposits in North America. Furthermore, nearly all ounces in the MRE are categorized as 'open pit', and we saw nearly 100% conversion from Inferred to Indicated resources from the previous MRE, setting an excellent foundation for our upcoming Feasibility Study, expected this quarter. PERMITTING ADVANCEMENTS & PRIORITIY ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT In 2023, we reinforced our commitment to responsible project development by implementing a Sustainable Development Policy, which establishes a structured framework that aligns our operation with the highest environmental, social, and ethical standards. This new policy aims to foster prosperity among our employees and their families, support local communities, and encourage collaboration with local service providers. Beyond compliance, our efforts always aim to positively impact all our stakeholders. The environmental permitting process steadily continued at both Federal and Provincial levels in 2023. Public consultations were successfully conducted by the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada and the Cree Nation Government in the local communities of Chibougamau, Mistissini, and Chapais, with insights and feedback from these meetings forming an important part of the ESIA. This report, underway by Stantec, is anticipated for completion by the end of 2024. LOOKING AHEAD TO 2024 With a series of significant milestones on our horizon, 2024 is shaping up to be another transformative year for Troilus as we continue to steadily de-risk and advance our project towards production. Here’s what you can expect from us this year: • Completion of a Feasibility Study expected in Q1 2024, including an inaugural Mineral Reserve estimate. • Approximately 25,000 metres of drilling, including: o Expansion and definition drilling at select targets along the main mineral corridor. o Condemnation drilling to ensure the planned mine infrastructure locations are free of economically significant mineralization. o Continuation of exploration activities, including targeted drilling, at prospective regional targets. • Completion of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment by calendar year-end • Continuous monitoring of the dynamic ESG landscape to identify new opportunities that will ensure the sustainable development of our project. As we forge ahead, we express our sincere gratitude to our shareholders and all stakeholders for their ongoing support. |

It’s very exciting to see the Southwest Zone rapidly evolving from its initial discovery just over 1 year ago. We are eager to continue targeted drilling in this area to better define the potential of what could rapidly become a very large system with multi-million ounce resource potential of a scale we believe could be in-line with the main zone Z87, or potentially larger.” This Southwest Zone is located approximately 2.5 kilometres southwest of the former mine site and main mineral resource area (See Figure 1). It was initially discovered and drilled in late 2019 and early 2020 following some new geologic modelling work by Troilus’ technical team. A minimal 8,500 metres of drilling in this zone has already outlined an estimated Inferred resource of 580,000 oz of gold equivalent ounces (22.6 Mt, at avg. grade of 0.80 g/t AuEq). The Company is working towards an updated mineral resource estimate and Pre-Feasibility Study, expected for completion in the second half of 2021. |

As we define the scale and extent of the Southwest Zone, we are observing a continuity of mineralization from previously undrilled zones within the PEA pit, and continued expansion well beyond it, which could not only enhance the economics of the project by reducing the strip ratio but also provide an opportunity to increase the production profile in the Pre-Feasibility Study planned later this year. The Southwest Zone remains entirely open to further expansion and will continue to be a priority drill target in 2021.” This Southwest Zone is located approximately 2.5 kilometres southwest of the former mine site and main mineral resource area (See Figure 1). It was initially discovered and drilled in late 2019 and early 2020 following some new geologic modelling work by Troilus’ technical team.

Posted at 09/11/2020 22:45 by stu31 Troilus Enters Definitive Agreement to Buy Back 2.5% NSR From First Quantum and Announces C$10.5M Bought Deal Public Offering...TORONTO, Nov. 9, 2020 /CNW/ - Troilus Gold Corp. (TSX: TLG) (OTCQB: CHXMF) ("Troilus" or the "Company") announces that it has entered into a definitive agreement with First Quantum Minerals Ltd. ("FQML") pursuant to which it will buy back the sliding 2.5% Net Smelter Royalty (the "NSR") attached to the 81 mineral claims and one surveyed mining lease known as the Troilus Mine, which were previously acquired from FQML (see press release dated April 12, 2018), thereby cancelling the FQML NSR. In consideration for the repurchase and cancellation of the FQML NSR, Troilus will pay cash consideration of C$20M to FQML from cash on hand. The transaction is expected to close within the next 24 hours. Troilus also announces that it has entered into an agreement with Cormark Securities Inc., on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters (collectively, the "Underwriters"), pursuant to which the Underwriters have agreed to purchase, on a bought deal public offering basis 5,470,000 common shares of the Company that qualify as "flow-through shares" for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and Taxation Act (Quebec) (the "Flow-Through Shares"), at a price of C$1.92 per Flow-Through Share (the "Flow-Through Offering Price") for gross proceeds of C$10,502,400. Pursuant to the agreement, the Underwriters have also agreed to purchase, on a bought deal private placement basis, 9,100,000 common shares (the "Common Shares") of the Company, at a price of C$1.10 per Common Share (the "Common Share Offering Price") for gross proceeds of C$10,010,000. The Common Shares and the Flow-Through Shares are collectively referred to herein as the "Offered Shares". The aggregate gross proceeds of the two offerings will be approximately C$20.5 million. Troilus CEO Justin Reid commented, "We view the buy-back of the FQML NSR as a highly accretive transaction to Troilus shareholders based on the modelling and economics as presented in the recently filed positive preliminary economic assessment (see news releases dated August 31, 2020 and October 15, 2020). When presented with the chance to repurchase and cancel a 2.5% NSR on the Troilus Project, we were eager to take advantage of this opportunity to further improve the economics and value of our project. Subject to completion, the proceeds of the offerings will replenish our balance sheet and enable us to accomplish our exploration and development objectives." The Underwriters also have an option to purchase up to 820,500 additional Flow-Through Shares at the Flow-Through Offering Price, for market stabilization purposes and to cover over-allotments, if any, for a period expiring 30 days after the date of closing for additional proceeds of up to C$1,575,360, assuming the over-allotment is exercised in full. The net proceeds from the offerings will serve to replenish the Company's balance sheet following the utilisation of cash on hand for the buy-back of the FQML NSR. The Company would not have proceeded with the buy-back transaction without entering into the agreement for the offerings and thereby preserve its strong cash position. The proceeds of the sale of the Flow-Through Shares will be used on exploration expenses on the Troilus Gold Project as permitted under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and the Taxation Act (Quebec) to qualify as "Canadian exploration expenses", "flow-through mining expenditures" and, for eligible investors, for the two 10% enhancements under section 726.4.9 and section 726.4.17.1 of the Taxation Act (Quebec). The proceeds of the sale of the Common Shares will be used for the Company's previously planned development program for the Troilus Gold Project and for working capital purposes. The Flow-Through Shares will be offered by way of short form prospectus in each of the provinces of Canada, pursuant to National Instrument 44-101 – Short Form Prospectus Distributions and some may be resold in the United States pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") and in such other jurisdictions outside of Canada and the United States as agreed to by the Company, in each case in accordance with all applicable laws and provided that no prospectus, registration statement or similar document is required to be filed in such jurisdiction. The Common Shares will be offered on a private placement basis solely in the United States pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, and internationally, as permitted. It is intended that the Underwriters will seek to arrange for a large, value focused US institution to acquire all or a significant portion of the Common Shares as a substituted purchaser for the Common Shares. The offerings are scheduled to close on or before December 1, 2020 and are subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, receipt of all applicable regulatory approvals, including the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange and the applicable securities regulatory authorities. The Offered Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, United States persons absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws.

(TSX: TLG) (OTCQB: CHXMF) (“Troilus̶ Highlights from the Testard Zone: 203 g/t (6.53oz/t) gold, 2,440 g/t (78.45 oz/t) silver and 4.37% copper from outcrop (Sample Y939452). Additional Testard outcrop samples: 54.2 g/t gold (Sample Y939451) 34.9 g/t gold (Sample Y939441) 13.55 g/t gold (Sample Y939446) 8.44 g/t gold (Sample Y939444) 8.25 g/t gold (Sample Y939445) 2.35 g/t gold (Sample Y346903) As well as 31.5 g/t and 13.4 g/t silver (Samples Y346903 and Y346902) Mineralization occurs within a 35-45 metre wide zone of brittle deformation and quartz vein swarms, hosted within a broad, undelineated intrusive tonalite package. Similar Testard mineralization has been traced in outcrop on Troilus ground up to 400 metres from the main showing. The silica flooding and brittle features that host gold bearing sulphides at Testard have the same characteristics as the Troilus mine and the newly discovered Southwest Zone. Results from 35 surface samples obtained in the vicinity of the Testard showing are still pending. Extensive mechanical clearing has been completed and channel samples were taken with further results pending. “We are thrilled with the latest insitu results including, the highest grade gold occurrence on our property to date and the highest ever reported in outcrop within the Frotêt-Evans Belt, located only 10 kilometres from our resource and mine site,” said Justin Reid, CEO of Troilus. “What’s particularly exciting about these results is that the geological characteristics of the Testard Zone and host rock are not only the same as our main mineral resource zones, including the newest Southwest Zone discovered earlier this year, but also hold many geological similarities to the recently announced Beyan Gold Zone Discovery (see press release dated September 30, 2020) and the Goldfield Boulder Zone discovery (see press release dated October 8, 2020), located 8 kilometres and 36 kilometres away from the Troilus mine site. To date, gold bearing outcrops displaying the same geological features as these positive Testard results have already been traced over a strike length of 400 metres and we look forward to pending results and further planned work to better define this zone. Results from our regional exploration program continue to validate our revised geologic model and exploration approach. The scale and range of the gold-bearing system at Troilus is very exciting, and continues to strengthen our confidence in the district potential of our project.” During the initial work program, which included outcrop stripping, bedrock mapping and boulder tracing, Troilus’ exploration team identified several mineralized outcrops on the main Testard Block, assaying up to 203 g/t gold with the best results highlighted in Table 1 below. The Testard showing is characterized by quartz veining in a distinct brittle shear zone, cross cutting a large, spatially undefined tonalite, over a distance of 30 metres (see Figure 2). Chalcopyrite is associated locally with veining. Locally the tonalite is strongly deformed and altered. The Testard area is almost entirely till covered with limited outcrop exposure, however local stripping completed to date has traced similar Testard mineralization in outcrop up to 400 metres from the main showing. In light of these positive results, Troilus will be prioritizing additional work at Testard including further clearing, ground geophysics and prospecting through the conclusion of the fall season. |
