Airborne Geophysics and Ground Exploration Completed by USGS On Troy Minerals Lake Owen Project

About this update from Meta Critical Minerals Inc.

[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / November 14, 2023 / Troy Minerals Inc. (\"Troy\" or the \"Company\") (CSE:TROY) (OTCQB:TROYF) is pleased to announce that the USGS (United States Geologic Survey) has completed an airborne magnetics and radiometric survey in Wyoming which included the Company's Lake Owen Project in Wyoming, USA, located approximately 50km southwest of Laramie, Wyoming. As part of the US Government's Critical Metals strategy and their accompanying Earth MRI program, the USGS has shown great interest in the region which has led to the completion of an airborne geophysical survey over the Lake Owen Complex that included flight lines of 100-metre line spacing over the Company's Lake Owen Project area - all at no cost to the Company. The Lake Owen Project, formerly known as SW2, is a Proterozoic layered mafic intrusion complex with a long history of exploration for platinum group elements and is similar in style to the Stillwater Complex and the Merensky Reef of South Africa. The USGS' focus, and Troy's, is to support and explore the layered mafic intrusive at Lake Owen for critical metals including Titanium, Vanadium, and Platinum Group Elements (PGE). In addition to the airborne program, USGS geologists visited the Lake Owen project and performed \"boots on the outcrop\" field work. Five days were spent on the project by the USGS, sampling a few transects perpendicular to the layering, focusing on the Lower Zone. Magnetic susceptibility measurements were collected along the way and targeted sampling of the more magnetic outcrops. Also sampled was the contact between the Lower and Upper zones, the chill margin at the base of the complex Proterozoic-Archean contact, and some of the felsic units (the quartz diorite and orthogneiss) in the footwall. Forty-two (42) rock samples were collected for thin section and major/trace element geochemistry. This will include vanadium and titanium concentrations. Analysis will also include PGE geochemistry, Sm-Nd isotopes, and Re-Os isotopes. Project data and reports from this airborne and ground survey are expected to be shared with the Company in the coming weeks.
