Troymet Exploration Corp. (TSX VENTURE:TYE) ("Troymet" or the "Company") is
pleased to update progress on the diamond drilling programs at the Key project
(gold-silver) and the McClarty Lake project (copper-zinc-gold).


Key Project, British Columbia

The 100% owned Key project is located 125 km southwest of Vanderhoof, British
Columbia. The property immediately adjoins the Blackwater project of Richfield
Ventures Corp. The first ever diamond drilling to be conducted on this large
property is underway, and a variety of targets have been selected for initial
testing. Project maps can be viewed at: www.troymet.com/s/Key-Images.asp.


A number of targets have been drilled on the Crag grid on the west side of the
property. The drill has now been moved to the area of Good News Lake on the
Bluff grid to test coincident elevated to anomalous gold-silver-zinc bedrock
anomalies, gold-in-soil anomalies, induced polarization anomalies and the GN
Fault. The targets appear to be associated with the GN Fault, a buried intrusive
body and possible diatremes or breccia pipes interpreted from the magnetic data.


Concurrent with the drilling, an induced polarization ("IP") survey is underway
on the Bluff and Butte grids with the objective of identifying additional IP
anomalies for drill testing, with or without coincident soil or rock anomalies.


A significant number of drill targets have been identified in areas of rugged
topography. These will be advanced through IP surveys and will be drilled after
spring break up.


Assay results will be released once received and evaluated. 

McClarty Lake Project, Manitoba

The McClarty Lake property is located near Snow Lake, Manitoba and lies
approx.45 km south of HudBay Minerals Inc.'s Chisel Lake and Lalor Lake
volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposits. The property comprises three
claims (MAC-1, MAC-2 & MAC-3; 344 hectares) owned 100% by Troymet and two claims
(DYC3606 & DOL78; 252 hectares) owned 60% by Troymet and 40% by HudBay ("option
claims"). HudBay is currently earning an additional 20% interest in the option
claims by spending $750,000 on exploration by June 5, 2011. Project maps can be
viewed at: www.troymet.com/s/McClartyLake-Images.asp.


MAC Claims (100% Owned)

Diamond drilling is now underway on the Mac electromagnetic ("EM") conductor
which is believed to lie on the same stratigraphic horizon as the Discovery
zone, identified by Troymet in 2007 (see under Option Claims). The conductor has
not been drilled previously. Major volcanogenic massive sulphide ("VMS")
deposits, such as HudBay's Lalor and Chisel Lake deposits at Snow Lake, occur in
association with such EM conductors. The stratigraphic horizon on which the
Discovery zone and the Mac conductor occur has now been traced intermittently by
Troymet over approx.2,000 metres, and is highly prospective for the discovery of
additional zones of VMS mineralization. 


Assay results will be released once received and evaluated.

Option Claims (60% Owned)

HudBay has advised Troymet that it has begun the preparation of drill sites on
McClarty Lake and plans to conduct a drilling program on the option claims, to
complete its earn-back of a 20% interest from Troymet. Troymet identified a
gold-bearing VMS system (Discovery zone) on the option claims in 2007.


Troymet is well financed and holds an exciting portfolio of precious metals and
base metals exploration properties, all of which it plans to drill in 2011.
