TORONTO, ONTARIO--(CCNMatthews - Oct. 2, 2006) - Western Troy Capital Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:WRY) announced today that the Grand Council of the Crees (Eeyou Istchee) passed a resolution of support for the Otish Mountain Road Project. This action was taken at the recently held Annual General Assembly of the Grand Council of the Crees.
Rex Loesby, President of Western Troy, commented, "The Otish Mountain Road Project would be of immense economic benefit for our MacLeod Lake Molybdenum/Copper project. Currently, our project is 165 kilometers from the nearest all-weather road. If the new road is built on the current winter road right-of-way to the past producing Eastmain Mine, it would come to within approximately 40 kilometers of the MacLeod Lake project, thus substantially reducing estimated capital and operating costs for a mining operation at MacLeod Lake. We are very fortunate to have support for the Otish Mountain Road Project from the local communities and the Grand Council of the Crees."
