SiO2, Al 2 O 3, Fe 2 O 3, MgO, +4 more

8 terms

SiO2 technical

"Channel sampling returned 97.68% to 99.43% SiO2 from 45 samples"

Silicon dioxide (SiO2) is a common mineral found in sand and glass used across industries as an insulating material, anti-caking additive, and component in electronics and manufacturing. Investors care because its availability, purity, and price affect costs and production for chipmakers, construction, and pharmaceutical products, so changes in supply or regulation can influence company margins and product reliability—think of it as a basic building block whose quality matters to many supply chains.

Al 2 O 3 technical

"Table 1. Table Mountain Zone - Channel Sampling Summary"

Al 2 O 3 is the chemical formula for aluminum oxide, a hard, ceramic-like compound formed from aluminum and oxygen. Investors should care because it’s a common industrial material used for coatings, abrasives, catalysts, and in electronics and battery components—think of it as a protective, heat-resistant shell many products rely on. Changes in its availability, cost, or regulation can affect manufacturing expenses, product performance, and supply chains.

Fe 2 O 3 technical

"Table 1. Table Mountain Zone - Channel Sampling Summary"

Fe2O3 is the chemical formula for iron(III) oxide, a reddish compound commonly found as the mineral hematite or as rust on iron surfaces. Investors care because it is a primary source of iron used in steel production and in technologies like pigments, catalysts, and battery materials; changes in its price, supply, or regulatory handling can affect costs, profitability, and demand in mining, manufacturing, and industrial sectors. Think of it as the raw red ingredient that steelmakers and certain tech supply chains rely on.

MgO technical

"Table 1. Table Mountain Zone - Channel Sampling Summary"

MgO, short for magnesium oxide, is a white, powdery mineral used in everything from cement and refractory materials to fertilizers and battery components; think of it as a building-block ingredient that helps give products heat resistance and stability. Investors watch MgO content and production because its availability, purity and cost influence margins and demand for companies in mining, chemicals and manufacturing—similar to how the quality of flour affects a bakery’s output and profits.

P 2 O 5 technical

"Table 1. Table Mountain Zone - Channel Sampling Summary"

P2O5 (written p 2 o 5) is the chemical formula for phosphorus pentoxide, a concentrated form of phosphorus oxide commonly used to represent phosphate content in fertilizers and related raw materials. Investors watch P2O5 because it’s a standard way to measure and trade phosphorus supply—like checking the sugar content in fruit—so shifts in P2O5 production, inventories or prices can signal changes in fertilizer availability, agricultural demand and the revenues of companies tied to that supply chain.

TiO 2 technical

"Table 1. Table Mountain Zone - Channel Sampling Summary"

Titanium dioxide (written as TiO2) is a widely used white pigment and coating material found in products from paints and plastics to paper and sunscreens. Investors care because it is a common, high-volume industrial input whose price, availability, or regulatory restrictions can materially affect the costs, revenues and margins of manufacturers across many industries — think of it like flour for bakeries: a basic ingredient that moves the economics for many finished goods.

ppm technical

"Channel | Interval (m) | SiO 2 (%) ... | B (ppm) | LOI (%)"

Parts per million (ppm) is a unit that expresses how many units of a substance exist in one million units of a mixture or material — imagine one drop of dye spread through an Olympic-sized pool to picture a very small concentration. Investors watch ppm readings because regulatory limits, product contamination, pollutant emissions or chemical residues often use this scale; small numeric changes can mean compliance problems, remediation costs, production shutdowns or reputational risk that affect a company’s value.

QA/QC technical

"One duplicate was taken as a QA/QC check and passed validation."

QA/QC stands for Quality Assurance and Quality Control, processes used to ensure products or services meet certain standards. Think of it as a way to check that a product is safe and works properly before reaching consumers, similar to how a chef tastes food before serving it. For investors, strong QA/QC practices indicate a company's commitment to delivering reliable, high-quality offerings, reducing risks and building trust.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / November 26, 2025 / Troy Minerals Inc. ("Troy" or the "Company") (CSE:TROY)(OTCQB:TROYF)(FSE:VJ3) is pleased to announce that it has received results from the 2025 sampling program on its 100% owned Table Mountain Silica Project ("Table Mountain" or the "Project"), located near Golden, British Columbia, Canada (Figure 1).

Key Highlights

• Channel sampling returned 97.68% to 99.43% SiO₂ from 45 samples at Table Mountain Zone, with an average of 98.59% SiO₂.

• Very low deleterious elements identified in all samples, consistent with previous sampling.

President of Troy Minerals Inc., Yannis Tsitos commented: "We are very pleased reporting these analytical sampling results from our summer field program; they confirmed once more the exceptional quality and consistency of surficial silica mineralization across this northwestern part of the Project and collectively with other existing geochemical results, provide the necessary information for Troy to refine the 2026 drilling campaign at Table Mountain."

Channel Sampling Results

Channel sampling was conducted at the Table Mountain Zone, with results consistently similar to the sampling results achieved during 2024. Sampling procedure consisted of continuous chip sampling along a 3-centimetre cut channel. Samples were taken continuously over 1-metre intervals perpendicular to the strike orientation of the outcrop, with the sample sequence starting from the southwest end of the channel. Intervals shorter than 20 centimetres were combined with the previous interval. 45 continuous chip channel samples were collected over 41.35 metres within a 54.50-metre sampling zone, returning a weighted average of 98.59% SiO₂.

One duplicate was taken as a QA/QC check and passed validation. Sample density is sufficient to indicate the accurate representation of the underlying mineralization. (See Figure 2 and Table 1 below).

Discussion

Sampling results were consistently high purity. The favourable grades reflect field observations of a broad zone of white quartzite measuring at least 150 metres wide and a strike length extending from the Trans-Canada Highway to the south and to the north, to the new northern extent of the property, representing a total strike length of at least 4 kilometres. Although the western cliff face of Table Mountain clearly demarcates the western margin of the Mount Wilson Formation quartzite, the eastern margin is obscured by a deep boulder field originating from the extensive, steep quartzite exposure in this area.

To date, channel sampling results have demonstrated a consistency in grade over a wide area within the Table Mountain Zone.

All samples were submitted to ALS Laboratories in North Vancouver, British Columbia for B-MS82L (boron) and ME-XRF26 (all other elements). One duplicate was taken in the channel sampling sequence and passed QA/QC.

About the Table Mountain Project

The Table Mountain Silica Project is located approximately 4 kilometres east of Golden, B.C., Canada, with excellent year-round road access and proximity to the Canadian Pacific Railway's Golden rail yard. The property covers roughly 2,526 hectares, encompassing up to 11 kilometres of regionally mapped strike length of the Mount Wilson Formation quartzite, with widths ranging from 300 to 1,400 metres at surface. Table Mountain is strategically situated near two established high-purity silica operations - the Moberly Silica Mine and the Sinova Quartz Quarry. This advantageous location highlights the project's potential to become a significant source of high-purity silica in a region known for hosting premium-quality silica deposits.
