1. Trivello Acquires Roy and Porcupine Copper-Gold Showings,
North-Central, British Columbia
August 17, 2010 - Trivello Energy Corp. (TSX-V “TRV”; Frankfurt “T6U1”) (the “Company”) is pleased
to announce that it has entered into two separate agreements to acquire the Roy and Porcupine Copper-
Gold Showings, located in the Toodoggone region of north-central British Columbia. Both showings are
adjacent to the Day Property which the Company acquired and announced August 3, 2010. In addition,
the Company has acquired by staking, 6 additional claims (Erin claims). In total the Company now holds
19 claims, totaling 7,119 hectares, within the Day – Roy – Porcupine area.
Roy Showing
The Roy Copper-Gold Showing was originally discovered in the early 1970’s following Falconbridge’s
discovery of the Day Copper-Gold Occurrence, about 3 km to the southwest, and the Sustut Copper
Deposit, about 10 km to the northeast of the property. Significant highlights based on historic work are
summarized by Fox (1991; Ass. Rpt. 21359):
- quartz-magnetite-chalcopyrite stringer stockwork developed in syenomonzite/monazite, with strong
fracturing and potassic alteration;
- at least 14 trenches completed within the mineralized porphyry,
- based on geophysics and soil geochemistry the zone has dimensions of at least 100 to 300 m width
by more than 400 m length (open along strike);
- all trenches have significant copper and/or gold mineralization, including:
o Trench 1: 5-m grading 0.22% Cu and 1.72 g/t Au;
o Trench 2: 8-m grading 1.30 g/t Au;
o Trench 5: 8-m grading 1.70 g/t Au;
o Trenches 6, 6A, 7: semi-continuous section of about 62-m grading 0.121% Cu and 0.55 g/t Au;
o Trenches 8, 9 and 12: discontinuous section of about 50-m grading 0.085% Cu and 0.65 g/t Au;
- Significant ground geophysical surveys, soil geochemistry surveys, stream sediment sampling,
prospecting, and geologic mapping were undertaken on the showing between the early 1970’s and
early 1990’s. No drilling is known for the showing.
Based on the limited historic exploration the Roy Showing consists of porphyry type Cu-Au mineralization
within a monzonite or syenomonzonite stock. Additional mineralized stocks are evidenced within the
property boundaries by soil geochemical anomalies (>100 ppm Cu or >40 ppb Au), and ground
geophysical surveys (magnetics).
Porcupine Showing (Lake Property Claim)
The Porcupine Showing located to the west-northwest of the Day Showing, consists of stratabound
copper/gold mineralization within intermediate to felsic volcanics. The mineralization was traced
sporadically over a distance of approximately 3,000 m. In 1991, Skeena Resources reported rock
sampling from the exposed margins of the mineralized horizon with 1 to 5 g/t Au and 1.25 to 5.40% Cu.

2. Massive sulfide boulders, located downslope of the occurrence, yielded maximum values of 3.2 g/t Au
and 5% Cu.
During 1992, at least five drill holes were completed at the Porcupine Showing, including:
DDH92-2: 9.60 m grading 0.13% Cu, 0.31 g/t Au and 5.66 g/t Ag.

The Toodoggone Region of north-central British Columbia has seen significant mineral exploration for
copper, gold, and silver deposits. Notable projects include Northgate Minerals Corp’s. (TSX:NGX)
Kemess South Mine and the Kemess North Project. During 2009, Northgate Minerals reported
production from the Kemess South Mine of 173,040 ounces Au and 52.5 Million lbs Cu. The Kemess
North Project is reported to contain Measured and Indicated Resources totaling 719,190,000 tonnes
grading 0.30 g/t Au and 0.15% Cu.
Further south, the Mount Milligan Project of Terrane Metals Corp. is reported to contain Proven and
Probable Reserves of 482.4 Million Tonnes grading 0.388 g/t Au and 0.20% Cu.
The exploration results referred to above are historical in nature and were compiled before NI 43-101.
Trivello has not independently analyzed the results of the previous exploration therefore the historical
results should not be relied upon. Trivello believes these historical results provide an indication of the
potential of the properties and are relevant to ongoing exploration.
According to Jay Roberge, President and CEO, “The acquisition of the Day, Roy and Porcupine
Showings represent a significant milestone for the Company as it marks the evolution of Trivello into a
precious-metal focused exploration company, with high-quality, large tonnage potential projects. The
project area has the same exploration hallmarks of the regionally significant, Kemess and Mount Milligan
Cu-Au Porphyry deposits.”
Under the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, Trivello will acquire a 100% mineral interest in the Roy
Property for $181,000 cash payable over 5 years, and a 100% mineral interest in the Porcupine Property
for $13,000 cash being $3,000 upon signing and $10,000 due and payable on October 31, 2011. Each
property subject to a Net Smelter Royalty of 2% with an option to the Company to purchase half (50%) of
the NSR for $1,000,000. The Porcupine Property is subject to an advance royalty of $50,000 per year and
a one-time payment of 300,000 common shares upon commencement of commercial production. If the
Company exercises the option to acquire 50% of the NSR on the Lake property, then the advance royalty
payment shall be reduced to $25,000 per year, and a one time payment of 150,000 common shares.
The technical information provided above for the Roy and Porcupine Showing was prepared by Jeff
Reeder, P.Geo, a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101.
