Talisker Intersects 57.8 g/t Au over 1.5 m

TORONTO, June 9, 2020 /CNW/ - Talisker Resources Ltd. ("Talisker" or the "Company") (CSE: TSK) (OTCQB: TSKFF) is pleased to announce results from holes SB-2020-003 and SB-2020-004 as wells as partial results for hole SB-2020-005A from the Company's 11,200m drill program targeting high-grade veins at the Bralorne Gold Project located in British Columbia.

Highlights include:

SB-2020-003/004/005A (CNW Group/Talisker Resources Ltd)

SB-2020-003/004 (CNW Group/Talisker Resources Ltd)

SB-2020-005A (CNW Group/Talisker Resources Ltd)

• SB-2020-004 – Pioneer Area
• 27.60 g/t Au over 0.50m from 320.50m to 321.00m
• 12.65 g/t Au over 0.50m from 374.40m to 374.90m
  
  
• SB-2020-005A – Bralorne Area
• 19.97 g/t Au over 5.10m from 102.70m to 107.80m
• Including 20.8 g/t over 0.6m from 102.7m to 103.3m
• And 57.8 g/t over 1.5m from 106.3m to 107.8m
• 5.81 g/t Au over 0.97m from 563.03m to 564.00m

"Hole 5A returned our highest grade and widest mineralised intercept to date," commented Terry Harbort, President & CEO of Talisker, who added, "We are also very pleased to be encountering numerous previously unknown mineralised structures, with these additional veins highlighting the growing potential of the Bralorne Gold Project."

Hole SB-2020-003 targeted a near surface portion of the P Main Vein Splay in the Pioneer area but terminated in a void before the target was reached and did not produce any significant assays. This void intersection has assisted in repositioning the underground mine as-built model at Pioneer.

Hole SB-2020-004 targeted the down-dip continuation of the P Main Vein Splay targeted in hole 3. The hole intersected 27.6 g/t gold over 0.5m in the P Main Vein Splay. The hole subsequently intersected 12.65 g/t gold over 0.5m at the P Main Vein.

Hole SB-2020-005A marked the beginning of Stage 2 of the drilling plan, which is designed to target known structures proximal to historic workings, guided by historic underground exploration drift assay data. Stage 2 targets are at depths between 750 and 1,500m below surface near the historic Bralorne Mine.

Hole SB-2020-005A targeted the 59, 51 and 73 veins. This hole intersected a previously unknown, close to surface mineralized structure at 102.7m returning a four-sample composite of 19.97 g/t gold over 5.1m including 57.8 g/t over 1.5m from 106.3m to 107.8m. The hole was suspended at a depth of 737.4m late in March in response to the COVID-19 crisis. SB-2020-005A was resumed late May, after the Company returned to site under new health protocols and was drilled to a depth of 1,013.10m. The results for hole 5A in this release represent the upper portion of the hole drilled prior to the COVID-19 crisis shut-down. Assay results from the lower portion are pending.

Similar to holes SB-2020-001 and SB-2020-002 (press releases dated April 1^st and May 5^th), significant gold mineralization was also identified in the altered halos proximal to the veins and associated with intense silica-sericite alteration. Select results from drill holes SB-2020-004 and partial results of hole SB-2020-005A are listed in the following table and a map and cross section displaying the location of drill holes SB-2020-003, SB-2020-004, and SB-2020-005A, and significant mineralized intercepts is attached to this press release.

Notes:  Diamond drill hole SB-2020-004 was collared at an azimuth of 149 degrees, and a downward dip of 56 degrees. SB-2020-005A was collared at an azimuth of 154 degrees and, and a downward dip of 55 degrees. Hole SB-2020-005 ddeviated off the planned trajectory and was shut down before encountering any targets. SB-2020-005A was the recollar of SB-2020-005. No significant intercepts were received from hole SB-2020-003. True widths are estimated at 65 - 90% of intercept lengths and are based on oriented core measurements where available.

Qualified Person

The technical information contained in this news release has been approved by Leonardo de Souza (BSc, AusIMM (CP) Membership 224827), Talisker's Vice President, Exploration and Resource Development, who is a "qualified person" within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

Sample Preparation and QAQC

Drill core at the Bralorne project is drilled in HQ to NQ size ranges (63.5mm and 47.6mm respectively). Drill core samples are minimum 50 cm and maximum 160 cm long along the core axis. Samples are focused on an interval of interest such as a vein or zone of mineralization.  Shoulder samples bracket the interval of interest such that a total sampled core length of not less than 3 m both above and below the interval of interest must be assigned. Sample QAQC measures of unmarked certified reference materials (CRMs), blanks, and duplicates are inserted into the sample sequence and make up 9% of the samples submitted to the lab for holes reported in this release.

Sample preparation and analyses is carried out by ALS Global, at their laboratory in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Drill core sample preparation includes drying in an oven at a maximum temperature of 60°C, fine crushing of the sample to at least 70% passing less than 2 mm, sample splitting using a riffle splitter, and pulverizing a 250 g split to at least 85% passing 75 microns (code PREP-31).

Gold and in diamond drill core is analysed by fire assay and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) of a 50g sample (code Au-AA24), while multi-element chemistry is analysed by 4-Acid digestion of a 0.25 g sample split with detection by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) for 48 elements (Ag, Al, As, Ba, Be, Bi, Ca, Cd, Ce, Co, Cr, Cs, Cu, Fe, Ga, Ge, Hf, In, K, La, Li, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Nb, Ni, P, Pb, Rb, Re, S, Sb, Sc, Se, Sn, Sr, Ta, Te, Th, Ti, Tl, U, V, W, Y, Zn, Zr).

Gold assay technique Au-AA24 has an upper detection limit of 10ppm. Any sample that produces an over-limit gold value via the Au-AA24 technique is sent for gravimetric finish via method Au-GRA22 which has an upper detection limit of 1,000 ppm Au. Samples where visible gold was observed are sent directly to screen metallics analysis and all samples that fire assay above 3 ppm Au are re-analysed with method Au-SCR24 which employs a 1kg pulp screened to 100 microns with assay of the entire oversize fraction and duplicate 50g assays on the undersize fraction. Where possible all samples initially sent to screen metallics processing will also be re-run through the fire assay with gravimetric finish provided there is enough material left for further processing.
