Treasury Metals Adds Second Drill at Goliath Gold Project

Treasury Metals (TSX:TML) provided an exploration program update on the Goliath Gold Project in Northwestern Ontario and announced the appointment of Mr. Darryl Boyd as Director of Regulatory and Community Affairs.
The Company has added a second drill rig that will assist in shortening the schedule for the infill drilling of deeper sections of the current underground “Inferred” resource area both in the “Main Zone” central shoot and with supplementary targets located within the western shoots of the main resource within the Main and C Zones (please see press release dated August 18, 2016 for further details). The company is currently awaiting drill assay results from the initial holes and will be releasing these results in due course.
A geological mapping and sampling program has also commenced in an area directly adjacent to and following the easterly extension of the main resource area for another 1.6 kilometres. Condemnation mapping is also underway in areas where the tailings pond and other potential mine infrastructure are being considered. Once the field exploration program is completed, Treasury plans to drill test all significant surface and near surface resource targets as part of a late fall or winter drill program.
In addition, the Company is also pleased to announce Darryl Boyd has been appointed as Director of Regulatory and Community Affairs. Mr. Boyd brings 20 years of mining experience in the Ontario region, with a track record of achieving operating permit approvals for several Ontario-based companies including North American Palladium Ltd., Rubicon Minerals Corporation, FNX Mining Company Inc. and Lake Shore Gold Corp. He has led the permitting process for project start-ups from preliminary exploration through to advanced exploration and commercial production (underground and open pit). Mr. Boyd is a graduate of the University of Guelph with a Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science.
