Trelawney Intersects 155.00 Metres of 1.31 g/t Gold and 115.90 Metres of 1.48 g/t Gold from Infill Drilling at Cote Lake
May 15 2012 - 9:56AM
Marketwired Canada
Trelawney Mining and Exploration Inc. (the "Company" or "Trelawney") (TSX
VENTURE:TRR)(FRANKFURT:RTW) announces the results from 26 additional holes
drilled on the Cote Lake Deposit on the Chester Project located halfway between
Timmins and Sudbury in Northern Ontario. The results are from the ongoing infill
and expansion drilling on the Cote Lake Deposit. Drilling continues to intersect
significant widths of low to moderate grade gold mineralization from the infill
drilling at the Cote Lake Deposit.
The Cote Lake Deposit currently hosts an indicated resource of 35 million tonnes
averaging 0.82 g/t for contained gold of 0.93 million ounces and an inferred
resource of 204 million tonnes averaging 0.91 g/t for 5.94 million ounces of
contained gold. A cut-off grade of 0.3 g/t Au was used for the estimate as
reported in Trelawney's press release dated February 24, 2012. To date,
mineralization of the Cote Lake Deposit has been intersected over a
strike-length of 1,200 metres and remains open in several directions along
strike and at depth. The Cote Lake Deposit consists of low to moderate grade
gold +/- copper mineralization which is associated with brecciated intermediate
to felsic, and locally mafic intrusive rocks. The nature of the alteration,
style of mineralization and age-dating all indicate the deposit is an Archean
porphyry system.
The Company continues to explore its considerable land holdings in the Swayze
greenstone belt. The current drill program on the Cote Lake Deposit consists of
eleven drill rigs, five focusing on expansion drilling and six drills on infill
drilling. An additional drill rig is conducting regional exploration and
condemnation drilling.
Greg Gibson, Trelawney's President and CEO commented, "We are very pleased that
the ongoing infill drilling continues to confirm the significant widths and
grades of mineralization similar to our original wider-spaced drilling."

Notes:
- True widths of intersections are unknown at this time.
- (i)Only intervals with assays cut to 25 g/t gold are shown.
- Intervals are graded with a lower cut of 0.30 g/t with internal waste and
low grade material within graded zones of up to 20 metres in length.
Trelawney has implemented a quality-control, quality assurance program to ensure
best practice principles are being applied in the sampling and analysis of the
drill core. Samples are crushed to -8 mesh then a 1,000 gram subset of each
sample is pulverized to 90% passing -150 mesh. Assays have been completed using
a standard fire assay with a 30 gram aliquot and an AA finish. For samples that
return values of between two to five grams per tonne gold, another pulp is taken
and fire assayed with a gravimetric finish. Samples returning values greater
than 5 grams per tonne are re-analyzed by pulp metallic analysis, NQ size drill
core is saw cut, and half the drill core is sampled in standard intervals. The
remaining half of the core is stored in a secure location. The drill core is
transported in security-sealed bags to the Accurassay prep lab in Sudbury,
Ontario by Trelawney personnel. Accurassay is an ISO/IEC 17025 certified
Laboratory by the Standards Council of Canada. In addition to quality assurance
controls at the laboratory, blanks and certified standards have been inserted
into the sample stream at random intervals.
David Beilhartz, Vice-President, Exploration of Trelawney, a Qualified Person
under National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101"), has prepared or supervised the
scientific and/or technical information for the property and verified and
approved the data disclosed in this press release.
For complete disclosure of the mineral resource estimate discussed in this press
release, please refer to the Technical Report on the Cote Lake Resource Update,
Chester Property, Ontario, Canada reported in accordance with NI 43-101
requirements, signed by W. Roscoe and B. Cook, Roscoe Postle Associates Inc.,
effective February 24, 2012. Investors are cautioned that mineral resources are
not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.
On April 27, 2012, Trelawney announced that they entered into a definitive
agreement with IAMGOLD Corporation ("IAMGOLD") pursuant to which IAMGOLD,
through a wholly-owned subsidiary, has agreed to acquire all of the issued and
outstanding common shares of Trelawney. Under the terms of the Agreement, each
Trelawney shareholder will receive $3.30 in cash for each Trelawney share held.
The transaction price represents a 36.6% premium based on Trelawney's 20-day
volume weighted average price ("VWAP") for the period ending April 26, 2012. The
transaction will be carried out pursuant to a statutory plan of arrangement.
Completion of the transaction is subject to customary conditions, including
court and shareholder approvals and the receipt of all necessary regulatory
approvals. Assuming Trelawney shareholders approve the transaction at the
special meeting of shareholders and final court approvals are obtained, the
transaction is expected to close by the end of June.
Trelawney is a Canadian junior mining and exploration company with a focus on
Archean gold deposits. The Company's current focus is directed towards the
continued exploration and development of the Cote Lake Deposit, located in
Chester Township, 20 kilometres southwest of Gogama, Ontario.
