[{"type":"text","content":"\nWestern Troy Drills 2.14% copper and 21.32 g/t silver over 3 meters in new zone at MacLeod Lake\n\n(via Thenewswire.ca)\n\n \nJanuary 25, 2012, Toronto, Ontario - Western Troy Capital Resources\n(TSX Venture: WRY, US-OTC: WTCRF) (Western Troy or the Company)\nannounced today the assay results of holes it drilled at its MacLeod\nLake Copper/Molybdenum Project in November of 2011. Three holes were\ndrilled on geophysical anomalies near the Main Zone. Two holes did\nnot intersect significant mineralization, but Hole 228, drilled on an\nanomaly between the Main Zone and the South Zone intersected 2.14%\ncopper and 21.32 g/t silver over an interval of 3 meters from 63 to 66\nmeters depth. This interval includes 1.0 meter of 5.93% copper and\n50.6 g/t silver. These widths are believed to be close to true widths\ndue to the sub-horizontal attitude of the mineralized zone.\n\n\n \nThe map below shows the location of Hole 228 relative to the Main and\nSouth Zones along with geophysical anomalies in the area.\n\n\n \nTo View Map Image, please copy and paste URL below into a new browser:\n\n\n \nhttp://thenewswire.ca/client_files/2012-01-25-0.pdf\n\n\n \nHole 228 was drilled on Rocky Point to intersect a conductive zone\nsouth of the Main Zone. Past work in this area uncovered high grade,\ncopper mineralized boulders with assays of 6 to 9 percent copper as\nwell as mineralized outcrop in granodiorite and biotite gneisses. The\nmineralized outcrop is likely the up-plunge extension of the new Rocky\nPoint Zone. Hole 228 is located approximately 450 meters down plunge\nfrom the mineralized outcrop and at the centre of the conductive zone\nthat appears to represent the outline of the new Rocky Point Zone.\n\n\n \nThe Main Zone is the focus of the currently underway final feasibility\nstudy for the MacLeod Lake Project. The South Zone resource, as\npublished in the 43-101 report for the MacLeod Lake Project in 2007,\nis estimated at 1.25 million tonnes (indicated) grading 0.75% Cu,\n0.19% Mo, 0.57 g/t gold and 20 g/t silver. The South Zone geometry\nlooks to be amenable to underground mining methods. Initial work to\ndetermine whether the South Zone could be included in the feasibility\nwork resulted in the opinion of the consulting engineers that the\nSouth Zone resource would need to be larger to become economic. With\nthis new drill interc...
