The 10,000-metre 2011 Resource Expansion drill program focused
almost exclusively on expanding the down-dip extensions of the
Magistral deposits as well as confirmation drilling on the
formerly-producing Santander Pipe where mineral system analysis and
3D modeling suggested that significant tonnages may be present
(Figure 2).

"Since the initial discovery hole in early 2008, our exploration
team has consistently delivered for the Company and continues to
validate our belief in the significant exploration potential of the
Santander project. We now have one of the larger undeveloped
zinc-rich polymetallic systems in the Tier 1 Central Peruvian
Mineral Belt and we continue to rank the exploration potential
good-to-excellent and low-to-moderate risk - essentially everything
remains open for expansion. We have identified 17 kilometres of
permissive mineral fairway of which only approximately 800-900
metres has been drill tested. Consequently, we feel the odds of
expanding the current upgraded resource and discovering new zones
of mineralization going forward remain high," stated Dr. Mark
Cruise, Trevali's President and CEO. "Furthermore, this dramatic
increase in mineralization forms an excellent foundation for
Trevali's plans to potentially double production in the
short-to-medium term following final construction and commissioning
of our initial 2,000-tonne-per-day processing plant later this
year."
DETAILS
The updated resource estimate is based on 190 drill holes
(42,000.8 metres), 109 sawn-channel samples (1,819.56 metres) and
10,585 geochemical assays in addition to 318 historic drill holes
(18,507.29 metres), 947 historic channel samples (5,245.55 metres)
and 7,812 historic assays for the Santander Pipe deposit. The
resource estimate was conducted by and under the supervision of
Greg Greenough P.Geo., an independent qualified person and Senior
Resource Geologist at Golder Associates Ltd. ("Golder") of
Mississauga, Canada, and utilized a 3% ZnEQ(i) cut-off-grade -
which is the nominal base-case estimated grade of material that can
be mined and processed considering all applicable costs. The
mineral resources identified in Tables 1 and 2 are based on
Ordinary Kriged (OK) capped values.
In detail, Trevali's 2011 drill campaign successfully defined an
additional 3.94 million new inferred tonnes (3% ZnEQ(i) cut-off)
within the Magistral Central-South deposits where drilling
confirmed that the two deposits merge at depth (Figure 3). The new
global estimated inferred tonnage for the Magistral deposits has
now increased to 5.41 million tonnes with an average grade of 4.44%
zinc, 22 g/t silver, 0.47% lead and 0.08% copper at 3% ZnEQ(i)
cut-off - an increase of 269% (Table 2).
To view Figure 3, please visit:
http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/tv705_F3.pdf.
Drilling and reconciliation studies also confirmed the presence
of significant mineralization within the historically-mined
Santander Pipe resulting in the addition of 5.08 million inferred
tonnes at 3% ZnEQ(i) cut-off. Total inferred tonnage defined to
date in the Santander Pipe is 8.4 million tonnes with an average
grade of 4.75% zinc, 20 g/t silver, 0.34% lead, and 0.14% copper at
3% ZnEQ(i) cut-off or an increase of 153% compared with the 2010 NI
43-101 Resource Estimate (Table 2).
The Company believes that there is significant remaining
exploration potential peripheral to and below the currently defined
Santander Pipe resource and future drill programs will seek to
expand upon this newly defined resource.

These statements reflect the Company's current views with
respect to future events and are necessarily based upon a number of
assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by the
company, are inherently subject to significant business, economic,
competitive, political and social uncertainties and contingencies.
Many factors, both known and unknown, could cause actual results,
performance or achievements to be materially different from the
results, performance or achievements that are or may be expressed
or implied by such forward-looking statements contained in this
news release and the company has made assumptions and estimates
based on or related to many of these factors. Such factors include,
without limitation: fluctuations in spot and forward markets for
silver, zinc, base metals and certain other commodities (such as
natural gas, fuel oil and electricity); fluctuations in currency
markets (such as the Peruvian sol versus the U.S. dollar); risks
related to the technological and operational nature of the
Company's business; changes in national and local government,
legislation, taxation, controls or regulations and political or
economic developments in Canada, the United States, Peru or other
countries where the Company may carry on business in the future;
risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral
exploration, development and mining (including environmental
hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected geological or
structural formations, pressures, cave-ins and flooding); risks
relating to the credit worthiness or financial condition of
suppliers, refiners and other parties with whom the Company does
business; inadequate insurance, or inability to obtain insurance,
to cover these risks and hazards; employee relations; relationships
with and claims by local communities and indigenous populations;
availability and increasing costs associated with mining inputs and
labour; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and
development, including the risks of obtaining necessary licenses
and permits and the presence of laws and regulations that may
impose restrictions on mining,; diminishing quantities or grades of
mineral reserves as properties are mined; global financial
conditions; business opportunities that may be presented to, or
pursued by, the Company; the Company's ability to complete and
successfully integrate acquisitions and to mitigate other business
combination risks; challenges to, or difficulty in maintaining, the
Company's title to properties and continued ownership thereof; the
actual results of current exploration activities, conclusions of
economic evaluations, and changes in project parameters to deal
with unanticipated economic or other factors; increased competition
in the mining industry for properties, equipment, qualified
personnel, and their costs. Investors are cautioned against
attributing undue certainty or reliance on forward-looking
statements.
Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be
other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated,
estimated, described or intended. The Company does not intend, and
does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking
statements or information to reflect changes in assumptions or
changes in circumstances or any other events affecting such
statements or information, other than as required by applicable
law.
Trevali's production plans at Halfmile-Stratmat and Santander
are based only on Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources and not
Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.
Inferred Mineral Resources are considered too speculative
geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them
that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves, and
there is therefore no certainty that the conclusions of the
production plans and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) will be
realized. Additionally where Trevali discusses
exploration/expansion potential, any potential quantity and grade
is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration
to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further
exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral
resource.
