Western Troy Announces Genivar Litigation Verdict Expected Before November 1, 2016, Sale of Its MacLeod Lake Project, and a Board of Directors Change

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Oct. 3, 2016) - Western Troy Capital Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:WRY) ("Western Troy" or the "Company") announces that in the Western Troy v. Genivar litigation, the court has advised that the decision should be released on or before November 1, 2016, the Company has sold its MacLeod Lake Prospect, and Milton Klyman resigned as a Director of the Company early in 2015.

By letter from the Court, Western Troy's counsel in the Western Troy v. Genivar case have been advised that the judgment will be completed on or before November 1, 2016.

Western Troy has sold its MacLeod Lake Project to a Quebec-based corporation. While there may be potential for discovery of economic mineral deposits at MacLeod Lake, Western Troy has determined that, given its management expertise and direction, better opportunities exist in other parts of the world.

Mr. Milton Klyman resigned from the Western Troy Board of Directors early in 2015 due to health reasons. In an oversight, Western Troy neglected to announce his resignation when it occurred. Western Troy would like to take this opportunity to thank Milt for his many years of support and counsel. We wish him the best.
