TSX:TML
TORONTO, Oct. 13, 2015 /CNW/ - Treasury Metals Inc. ("Treasury" or the "Company") (TSX:TML) has filed on SEDAR and Treasury's website a National Instrument 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate (the "2015 Resource Estimate") on its 100% owned Goliath Gold Project located 20 kilometres east of Dryden, Ontario. The 2015 Resource Estimate is an update to the November 2011 NI 43-101 Resource Estimate, and includes results from a database representing an additional 175 diamond drill holes and 27 old re-entered drill holes totaling 55,086 m that were completed between 2012 and 2015.
P&E Mining Consultants Inc., which prepared the 2015 Resource Estimate, concludes that the Goliath Gold Project now totals 1,166,000 gold and gold equivalent silver ounces (AuEq) in the "Indicated" and "Measured" categories. These total ounces in these categories as reported represent a 44 per cent increase over those reported in the Company's Preliminary Economic Assessment released in August of 2012.
Further highlights of the Resource Estimate were outlined in Treasury's press release dated August 28, 2015.
