Tri Origin Commences Field Program at Sky Lake Gold Project, Ontario

Aurora, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 21, 2015) - Tri Origin Exploration Ltd. (TSXV: TOE) ("Tri Origin" or "The Company") is pleased to announce the commencement of a field program at its Sky Lake gold property located 30 kilometres southwest of Pickle Lake, Ontario. The program is planned to consist of a test program of Induced Polarization ("IP") geophysical surveying followed by geological mapping and geochemical sampling to screen and prioritize IP anomalies.

The target area selected for IP surveying is within the central portion of the property in the vicinity of interesting gold occurrences delineated during the 1950's. Surveying will test for possible eastward extensions of these gold occurrences in previously unexplored sand and muskeg covered areas. Historic work in this area had detected gold mineralization associated with iron formation and alteration of rock units which may be indicative of proximity to as yet, undiscovered gold deposits. Tri Origin's application of modern exploration techniques has been the first work in this area since the 1980's. The intent of this initial test program is to successfully detect geophysical responses that may indicate extensions of known gold zones and thereby substantiate the planning of a larger survey and diamond drill program in the future.

The Sky Lake gold property covers a 23 kilometre long portion of a well-mineralized belt of volcanic and sedimentary rock that lies midway between the past-producing gold deposits of the 2 million ounce Pickle Lake Gold District to the northeast and the Golden Patricia gold mine to the west. The geological environment being investigated by the Company strongly resembles that hosting the important current and past-producing LaRonde, Bousquet and Doyon gold mines in Quebec where over 25 million ounces of gold have been identified and recovered by mining companies including Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd., IAMGold Corp., Barrick Gold Corp. and LAC Minerals Ltd.

Tri Origin is excited about its prospects at Sky Lake. It has assembled a district-scale property and designed an exploration program focused on the systematic evaluation of the area in its search for multi-million ounce gold deposits of the Bousquet/LaRonde type.

The current program will be completed during June. Results of the program will be released following their receipt and review by the Company.
