Vancouver, Canada – TheNewswire - March 22nd, 2022 - Trench Metals Corp. (the “Company”) (TSXV:TMC), (FWB:33H2), (OTC:NVTQF) announces that the Company has completed its evaluation of its sampling and radiometric survey at the Gorilla Lake Uranium Project. The drill and sampling program produced a total of 65 samples which were analysed. Of those samples, 18 displayed strong radioactivity, over 1000 cps (counts per second), with a total of 63 samples measuring over 300 cps. The highest sample was taken from a granitic boulder and measured 4635 cps, with other highly anomalous samples from a drillhole measuring 3400cps and a granitic boulder measuring 2852cps.

The majority of the samples were located on the eastern shore of X-Ray Lake and at an outcrop located 2.5km to the northeast. The X-Ray Lake samples closely parallel a northeast trending subsurface conductor, with an extent of roughly 2km. The anomalies identified in this survey are considered significant as they may represent an additional mineralization trend.

The radioactive readings were taken with RS-120 and RS-125 scintillometers, both of which are industry standard.

The Company is very pleased with the results of this program, which confirms the presence of radioactive anomalies on surface, and with similar values to what was encountered at the nearby Cluff Lake Mine. The Company will be adding this data to the significant historic database to guide future exploration.
