Treasury Metals Inc. ("Treasury" or the "Company") (TSX:TML) today released its
report for the first quarter ending March 31, 2010. The Company is also pleased
to provide an update from its exploration program on the Goliath Gold Project,
located approximately 20 km east of the City of Dryden in northwestern Ontario.


Goliath Gold Project Update (January to May 2010)



--  Continued to advance the Preliminary Economic Assessment (Scoping Study)
    being completed by consultants A.C.A. Howe International Limited. 
--  Reported high-grade gold assay results from its 31 hole, 4,500 metre
    diamond drilling program (October to December) aimed at testing the
    western extension of the Main Zone of the Thunder Lake gold deposit. 
--  Confirmed gold mineralization for over 650 metres west of the Thunder
    Lake Gold Deposit including the identification of at least one high-
    grade ore shoot at the western edge of the mineral resource. Significant
    high-grade gold intersections included: 
    --  TL09-75: 3.56 g/t Au over 1.10 m (from 48.00 to 49.10 metres) 
    --  TL09-76: 21.32 g/t Au over 0.20 m (from 130.00 130.20 metres) 
    --  TL09-77: 24.45 g/t Au over 1.10 m (from 24.90 to 26.00 metres) 
    --  TL09-81: 19.34 g/t Au over 1.50 m (from 60.50 to 62.00 metres) 
--  Completed an 8 hole, 5,206 metre diamond drilling program (February-
    March 2010) aimed at testing deeper (+400 metre vertical) high-grade
    structures within the Main Zone of the Thunder Lake gold deposit. 
--  Confirmed continuity of Main Zone mineralization and high-grade gold
    structures at +725 metres vertically. Significant high-grade gold
    intersections included: 
    --  TL10-87: 13.85 g/t Au over 1.00 m (from 508.0 to 509.0 metres) 
    --  TL10-88: 20.03 g/t Au over 1.00 m (from 477.0 to 478.0 metres) 
    --  TL10-90: 8.36 g/t Au over 1.00 m (from 501.5 to 502.5 metres) 
    --  TL10-93: 16.12 g/t Au over 0.50 m (from 733.05 to 733.55 metres) 
--  Initiated a geophysical program of surface and borehole induced-
    polarization (IP) surveys in order to characterize high-grade gold
    structures, target areas of potential mineralization between drill
    holes, generate new off-hole targets and to gain an overall better
    understanding of the Main Zone mineralization. 
--  Announced a further +5,000 metres of diamond drilling (2 rigs), aimed at
    testing shallow and deep targets in the Main Zone and confirming
    geophysical targets being generated by surface and borehole induced-
    polarization surveys. 



"We are looking forward to the results of our Preliminary Economic Assessment
which is due out before the end of the second quarter," commented Scott
Jobin-Bevans, President & CEO. "It will include an updated NI 43-101 mineral
resource estimate which will be used to consider a combination of open pit and
underground mining scenarios. The goal of this study is to provide us with an
economic model on the Thunder Lake gold deposit that will dictate our approach
to developing this deposit and serve as a guide in future exploration and
development on the Goliath Gold Project."


The Company continues to advance the Goliath Gold Project through expansion of
the current resources (Thunder Lake Gold Deposit) and property-wide exploration
programs planned for the remainder of 2010. In addition, Treasury will continue
to actively seek new acquisition opportunities in the Kenora Gold District that
are accretive to its existing gold property portfolio.




Financings                                                                  

--  Subsequent to the quarter received financing of $637,875 through the
    exercise of 2,033,750 warrants and 67,500 options year-to-date. 



Three Months Ended March 31, 2010

During the first quarter ended March 31, 2010 Treasury invested $536,031 on
mineral properties as compared to $63,359 during the same period in 2009. These
expenditures are expected to remain consistent during the next quarter.


For the three months ended March 31, 2010, Treasury incurred a net loss of
$8,935 ($0.00/share) compared to a net loss of $70,298 ($0.00/share) in 2009.
The Company's net NSR revenue in this period was $162,136 (a record quarter) as
compared with $113,300 in 2009. The increase is mainly a result of higher
production and higher gold prices. 


At March 31, 2010, working capital totalled $442,504, compared to ($74,019) at
the same time last year. The Company also had investment holdings of $1,976,972
as compared to $1,190,272 as at March 31, 2009. 


Outlook 2010

Looking into the second quarter the Company will primarily focus on exploration
and development of the Goliath Gold Project by increasing and improving the
current mineral resources and concurrently investigating the sensitivities to
develop these resources toward feasibility. Treasury will also aggressively
target, review and, if desirable, acquire and develop advanced gold assets in
northwestern Ontario in order to augment and strengthen its current mineral
property portfolio.


About Treasury Metals

Treasury Metals Inc. is a mineral exploration company that is actively
developing its 100% owned flagship Goliath Gold Project. The Goliath Gold
Project contains the Thunder Lake Gold Deposit that has more than 1.0 million
estimated ounces of gold, consisting of 130,000 indicated ounces (820,000 tonnes
at 4.8 g/t Au; Main Zone) and 920,000 inferred ounces (7,000,000 tonnes at 4.1
g/t Au; All Zones), using a cut-off grade of 2.0 g/t Au (see NI 43-101 report -
"Report on the Goliath Project, Kenora Mining Division, Northwestern Ontario,
Canada" dated December 19, 2008 - filed on SEDAR). Mineral resources are not
mineral reserves and by definition do not demonstrate economic viability.
Drilling of the Thunder Lake Gold Deposit to date has intersected the Main Zone
over a strike length of about 1,700 metres, with thicknesses of 0.5 to 30 metres
(average width of 7.6 metres at 0.5 g/t Au cut-off) and a high-grade core with
an average width of 1.9 metres (3.0 g/t Au cut-off).


Treasury Metals has royalty revenue from Goldgroup Resources' Cerro Colorado
Mine in Mexico along with other monetizable assets. Treasury Metals has a strong
shareholder base and its management team and board are seasoned mining industry
veterans with proven track records.
