Talisker Announces Assay Results for Second Drill Hole at Bralorne Gold Project – Intersects 32.2 g/t Au over 0.97 m –

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / May 5, 2020 / Talisker Resources Ltd. ("Talisker" or the "Company") (CSE:TSK)(OTCQB:TSKFF) is pleased to announce results from the second drill hole at the Bralorne Gold Project located in British Columbia. Talisker is undertaking a 11,200m drill program targeting high-grade veins at the Project (see press release of February 12, 2020). Results from hole SB-2020-002 follow the announcement of 27.3 g/t Au over 0.60 m in hole one (SB-2020-001) on April 1, 2020. SB-2020-002 targeted the down dip continuity of the same structures intersected in hole SB-2020-001; the PHW, P Main, and the J Veins. Additional results from the remaining three drilled in the first quarter will be released when received.

Highlights include:

17.35 g/t Au over 0.80m from 247.40m to 248.20m intersecting the PHW Vein
32.20 g/t Au over 0.97m from 414.40m to 415.37m intersecting the P Main Vein

Similar to hole one, significant gold mineralization was also identified in the altered halos surrounding the veins in both footwall and hanging wall locations associated with intense silica-sericite alteration. Highlights of non-vein mineralization include:

Hanging wall to the PHW Vein

2.31 g/t Au over 1m from 245.4m to 246.4m
0.54 g/t Au over 1m from 246.4m to 247.4m

Footwall to the PHW Vein

0.67 g/t Au over 1m from 248.2m to 249.2m
0.44 g/t Au over 1m from 249.2m to 250.2m

Hanging wall to the P Main Vein

2.19 g/t Au over 1.4m from 413.0m to 413.4m

Select results from the second drill hole are listed in the following table and a map and cross section displaying the location of the drill hole and mineralized intercepts is attached to this press release.

"Hole 2 gives us a good indication of down dip structural continuity extending intercepts from hole 1; 87m for the P Main, 60m for the J vein and 30m for the PHW vein," commented Terry Harbort, President and CEO of Talisker, who added, "We are encouraged again by the high-grade gold results and the persistence of the mineralised halo adjacent to the veins."

Talisker will be providing the opportunity for shareholders and other interested parties to participate in a Webinar to be held at 4 pm ET on Thursday, May 7th. To join, please click on the following link – https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83109137095.

Notes: Diamond drill hole SB-2020-002 was collared at an azimuth of 203 degrees, and a downward dip of 67 degrees. True widths are estimated at 70 – 90% of intercept lengths and are based on oriented core measurements. Method Reported includes the most up to date information as of the date of this press release.

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 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 8% of the samples submitted to the lab for hole SB-2020-002.

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.
