TORONTO, Feb. 1, 2022 /CNW/ - Talisker Resources Ltd.
("Talisker" or the "Company") (TSX: TSK) (OTCQX:
TSKFF) is pleased to announce high-grade results from multiple
drill holes highlighted by 43.48 g/t Au over 1.30 metres
(SB-2021-096) and 12.72 g/t Au over 1.50 metres within 8.43 g/t
Au over 3.25 metres (SB-2021-096) on the 55 and 228 veins
respectively at its 100% owned flagship Bralorne Gold
Project.
Key Points:
- The drill holes disclosed in this release are located
within the Bralorne West block and are focused on the 55 HW and 55
veins.
- Resource drilling completed on the 55 and 55HW veins now totals
48 holes.
- Hole SB-2021-096 and SB-2021-098 both intersected high-grade
gold on the 55 vein highlighted by 43.48 g/t Au over 1.30
metres and 8.64 g/t Au over 1.00 metre, respectively.
- Hole SB-2021-096 also intercepted the 228 vein close to the
surface which graded 12.72 g/t Au over 1.50 metres with a
broader mineralized envelope of 8.43 g/t Au over 3.25 metres.
- SB-2021-098 intersected the 225 vein highlighted by 13.02
g/t Au over 1.00 metre and a new vein which graded 5.65 g/t
over 1.00 metre.
Terry Harbort, CEO of Talisker commented, "With 48
drill holes now intercepting the 55 and 55HW veins, Talisker
anticipates that these two structures will form a major component
of our upcoming 2022 resource. With a large volume of assays
recently received from the laboratory, we expect a steady newsflow
of results as we complete the quality control process and release
the results to market."
Seven diamond drills are now operating at the Bralorne
Gold Project. A total of 109,207 metres (212 holes) has been
drilled since Talisker initiated drilling at the Project in
February 2020. Currently there
are 1,434 samples at the assay laboratory which are expected to be
received by the Company shortly.

Notes:
Diamond drill hole SB-2021-096 has collar
orientation of Azimuth 203; Dip -45. Diamond drill hole
SB-2021-098 has a collar
orientation of Azimuth 189; Dip -45. True widths are estimated at
40 - 90% of intercept lengths and are based on oriented core
measurements where available. 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
relating to the drill results at the Bralorne Gold Project 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.
About Talisker Resources Ltd.
Talisker (taliskerresources.com) is a
junior resource company involved in the exploration of gold
projects in British Columbia,
Canada. Talisker's projects include two advanced-stage
projects, the Bralorne Gold Complex and the Ladner Gold
Project, both advanced-stage projects with significant
exploration potential from historical high-grade producing gold
mines, as well as its Spences Bridge Project where the Company
holds ~85% of the emerging Spences Bridge Gold Belt and several
other early-stage Greenfields projects. With its properties
comprising 296,983 hectares over 346 claims, three leases
and 198 crown grant claims, Talisker is a dominant exploration
player in south-central British
Columbia. The Company is well funded to advance its
aggressive systematic exploration program at its
projects.
Sample Preparation and QAQC
Drill core at the Bralorne Gold 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
3m 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 in
North Vancouver, British Columbia,
Canada and SGS Canada in Burnaby, 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 (ALS code PREP-31 / SGS code
PRP89). Gold in diamond drill core is analysed by fire assay and
atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) of a 50g sample (ALS code
Au-AA26 / SGS code GO_FAA50V10), 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 (ALS code Au-AA26 / SGS code FAA50V10)
has an upper detection limit of 100 ppm. Any sample that produces
an over-limit gold value via the gold assay technique is sent for
gravimetric finish (ALS method Au-GRA22 / SGS method GO_FAG50V)
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 1 ppm Au are
re-analysed with method (ALS code Au-SCR24 / SGS code - 6 - GO_FAS50M) 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
