Trelawney Intersects 316.00 Metres of 1.38 g/t Gold and 312.00 Metres of 1.17 g/t Gold from Infill Drilling at Cote Lake

Trelawney Mining and Exploration Inc. (the "Company" or "Trelawney") (TSX
VENTURE:TRR)(FRANKFURT:RTW) announces the results from 13 additional holes
drilled on the Cote Lake Deposit on the Chester Project located halfway between
Timmins and Sudbury in Northern Ontario. The results are from the ongoing infill
and expansion drilling on the Cote Lake Deposit. Drilling continues to intersect
significant widths of low to moderate grade gold mineralization from the infill
drilling at the Cote Lake deposit. Infill drilling has been conducted in various
orientations and angles to aid in confirmation of continuity and assist in
geological modeling.
The Cote Lake Deposit currently hosts an indicated resource of 35 million tonnes
averaging 0.82 g/t for contained gold of 0.93 million ounces and an inferred
resource of 204 million tonnes averaging 0.91 g/t for 5.94 million ounces of
contained gold. A cut-off grade of 0.3 g/t Au was used for the estimate as
reported in Trelawney's press release dated February 24, 2012. To date,
mineralization of the Cote Lake Deposit has been intersected over a
strike-length of 1,200 metres and remains open in several directions along
strike and at depth. The Cote Lake Deposit consists of low to moderate grade
gold +/- copper mineralization which is associated with brecciated intermediate
to felsic, and locally mafic intrusive rocks. The nature of the alteration,
style of mineralization and age-dating all indicate the deposit is an Archean
porphyry system.
The Company continues to explore its considerable land holdings in the Swayze
greenstone belt. The current drill program on the Cote Lake Deposit continues
with eleven drill rigs, four focusing on expansion drilling and seven drills on
infill drilling. An additional drill rig is conducting regional exploration and
condemnation drilling.
Greg Gibson, Trelawney's President and CEO commented, "We are very pleased that
the ongoing infill drilling continues to confirm the significant widths and
grades of mineralization similar to our original wider-spaced drilling."

Notes:
- True widths of intersections are unknown at this time.
- (i)Only intervals with assays cut to 25 g/t gold are shown.
- Intervals are graded with a lower cut of 0.30 g/t with internal
waste and low grade material within graded zones of up to 20 metres
in length.
Trelawney has implemented a quality-control, quality assurance program to ensure
best practice principles are being applied in the sampling and analysis of the
drill core. Samples are crushed to -8 mesh then a 1,000 gram subset of each
sample is pulverized to 90% passing -150 mesh. Assays have been completed using
a standard fire assay with a 30 gram aliquot and an AA finish. For samples that
return values of between two to five grams per tonne gold, another pulp is taken
and fire assayed with a gravimetric finish. Samples returning values greater
than 5 grams per tonne are re-analyzed by pulp metallic analysis. Occasionally
holes or partial holes are reported with only the original fire assay. Drill
core is saw cut and half the drill core is sampled in standard intervals. The
remaining half of the core is stored in a secure location. The drill core is
transported in security-sealed bags to the Accurassay prep lab in Sudbury,
Ontario by Trelawney personnel. Accurassay is an ISO/IEC 17025 certified
Laboratory by the Standards Council of Canada. In addition to quality assurance
controls at the laboratory, blanks and certified standards have been inserted
into the sample stream at random intervals. David Beilhartz, Vice-President,
Exploration of Trelawney, a Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101,
has prepared or supervised the scientific and/or technical information for the
property and verified and approved the data disclosed in this press release.
For complete disclosure of the mineral resource estimate discussed in this press
release, please refer to the Technical Report on the Cote Lake Resource Update,
Chester Property, Ontario, Canada reported in accordance with NI 43-101
requirements, signed by W. Roscoe and B. Cook, Roscoe Postle Associates Inc.,
effective February 24, 2012. Investors are cautioned that mineral resources are
not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.
On April 27, 2012, Trelawney announced that it had entered into a definitive
agreement with IAMGOLD Corporation ("IAMGOLD") pursuant to which IAMGOLD,
through a wholly-owned subsidiary, has agreed to acquire all of the issued and
outstanding common shares of Trelawney. Under the terms of the agreement, each
Trelawney shareholder will receive $3.30 in cash for each Trelawney share held.
The transaction will be carried out pursuant to a statutory plan of arrangement
(the "Arrangement"). A special meeting of Trelawney shareholders to consider the
Arrangement is scheduled to be held on June 15, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. (Toronto
time) at the Toronto Board of Trade, 1 First Canadian Place, 3rd Floor, Toronto,
Ontario. Completion of the proposed Arrangement is subject to a number of
customary conditions, including approval of the Ontario Superior Court of
Justice and the receipt of shareholder approval. Assuming Trelawney shareholders
approve the Arrangement at the special meeting of shareholders, final court
approvals are obtained and all other conditions to the Arrangement are satisfied
or waived, the Arrangement is expected to close by the end of June. Questions
with respect to the Arrangement can be directed to the Company's proxy
solicitor, Laurel Hill Advisory Group, toll-free at 1-877-452-7184 or at
416-304-0211 or by email at assistance@laurelhill.com.

volatility of prices of gold; the timing of the receipt of regulatory and
governmental approvals for the Company's projects; the availability of financing
for the Company's development of its properties on reasonable terms; the ability
to procure equipment and operating supplies in sufficient quantities and on a
timely basis; the ability to attract and retain skilled staff; exploration
timetables; market competition; the accuracy of the Company's mineral resource
estimate (including with respect to size, grade and recoverability) and the
geological, operational and price assumptions on which it is based; and such
other assumptions and factors as are set out herein. Although the Company has
attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements, there may
be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or
