TriMetals Mining Inc. Intercepts 30.5 Metres at 1.31 g/t AuEq* at South Jumbo (Etna)
March 2, 2017, Vancouver, British Columbia-TriMetals Mining Inc. (TSX: TMI, OTCQX: TMIAF), (the Company), is pleased to announce the results from the final drill holes of the 2016 program on the Gold Springs project located in Utah and Nevada.

Two additional holes were completed in the South Jumbo on the Etna target and three within Central Jumbo. Highlights from the final holes include 1.1 g/t Au and 15.61 g/t Ag, equating to 1.31 g/t AuEq* over 30.5 metres in hole E-16-008 which was drilled from the same location as E-16-004 (24.4 metres at 2.04 g/t Au, 11.49 g/t Ag, PR January 11, 2017) but at a steeper angle to test the down dip continuity of the system.

Three holes were drilled within the central portion of the Jumbo trend, the State Section target, returning 12.2 metres at 0.79 g/t Au and 5.79 g/t Ag in hole SS-16-001. This hole is located 500 metres south of the Jumbo resource area and 1,100 metres from the 2016 Etna holes. The other two holes located in Central Jumbo were reconnaissance holes drilled into areas of structural complexity to better understand the geology and did not intersect any significant gold mineralization.
Ralph Fitch, President and CEO of the Company stated The final drill results from the 2016 program continue to demonstrate the size and strength of the mineralizing systems at Gold Springs. From an exploration standpoint it is very significant that hole SS-16-001, located between the two known blocks of mineralization on the Jumbo Trend, and drilling into a partially covered area, intersected a portion of the Jumbo mineral system. This hole located in the central portion of the Jumbo Trend, between the North Jumbo and South Jumbo (Etna) targets, intersected the mineralized system, again confirming the continuity of the mineralization flanking the 5.5 km long Jumbo Structural Trend resistivity high. All this new mineralization discovered in the Jumbo Trend and at Thor is presently being incorporated in our updated resource estimate which is expected to be published in Q1.
The final Thor hole T-16-011, was drilled to offset T-16-001 and intersected 4.0 g/t Au and 55.7 g/t Ag over 3.1 metres. Another 375 metres south, two additional scouting holes (SH-16-001 and 002) also intersected mineralization indicating that the system continues to the south.
