(TSXV:TG)(OTCQB:TRRFF) (\"Trifecta\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that crew and equipment have been mobilized to its road accessible Mt. Hinton project, situated within the Keno Hill Mining District of the Tombstone Gold Belt. The Mount Hinton Project is located less than 4 km from Hecla Mining Company's Keno Hill mill.Trifecta has designed a multifaceted exploration program to: 1) further delineate known zones of mineralization through drilling, 2) make additional discoveries by following up on existing soil anomalies with detailed mapping and prospecting, and 3) expand the area of prospectivity by completing additional soil surveys combined with an airborne ZTEM (\"Z-Axis Tipper Electromagnetic\") and magnetic survey.DrillingTrifecta plans to drill 1500 m at the SW Zone and No. 5 Vein. These parallel structures are located 700 m apart and have been traced on surface for 900 m and 420 m of strike, respectively, and over 200 m vertically. The SW Zone was successfully drilled by Strategic Metals in 2020, while the No. 5 was targeted by United Keno Hill Mines (\"UKHM\") in 1980 and Mill City in 2011 by shallow, percussion drill holes. Importantly, despite identifying the presence of visible gold, UKHM did not assay for gold. 3-D modelling by Trifecta demonstrates that the vast majority of the historical drilling at No. 5 did not reach target depth.
