Trio Gold Corp

David W. Bassett (CMA) has replaced Mr. Harry Stech as Secretary and Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation. Mr. Stech remains a director of the Corporation and a member of the audit committee.

Mr. Ian Berzins was appointed to the board of directors to fill the vacancy left by the resignation of Mr. Robert Sibthorpe. Mr. Berzins graduated from Queens University in Kingston, Ontario, with a Bachelor of Science degree in Mining Engineering. His well rounded expertise in mine design, mine supervision and senior mine management will be assets to the company. Mr. Berzins was the mine manager for Harmony Gold (Canada) Inc.'s Bissett Gold Mine in Manitoba and mine manager for Echo Bay's Lupin Gold Mine in the Northwest Territories. His experience will be invaluable to the planning and development of the company's Empire Mine property. The mine contains copper, gold, silver and zinc. Mr. Sibthorpe resigned due to other business commitments.

On the San Ramon property in Chile, a total of ten core holes have been completed on this 35 sq km property located 45 km west of Copiapo. The drill holes test the lateral extension of the Carmen vein, previously defined by two holes drilled 250m apart by American Canyon Mining Chile Ltda. (ACM) in 2003. ACM's holes averaged 5.3% Cu, 2.1 gm/T Au and 0.12% Co, over an average width of 5 meters. Trio's drill program has extended the Carmen vein system for more than 650m. Assay results are pending.

A minimum of 10 mineralized structures have been identified by old workings and drilling at San Ramon. The vein widths vary between 2 and 20 meters and are visible in lengths between 500 and 2,000 meters before extending under sandy overburden. Iron-Oxide-Copper-Gold (IOCG) mineralization potential exists as indicated by two geophysical anomalies located beyond the northern and southern extents of the Carmen vein.

The company is reviewing several third party proposals interested in funding the advancement of the Empire Mine in Idaho to final feasibility and to continue exploration of its Chilean San Ramon property. In anticipation that an agreement may be reached with one or more of the interested parties the company will not proceed with the private placement announced on March 7, 2005. Any financing would require approval of the regulatory authorities.

Philip van Angeren P.Geol., director of Trio Gold Corp., a ¡°qualified person¡± under National Instrument 43-101 guidelines is the project supervisor for the San Ramon project.
