FDHC Fidelity Holding Corporation New (CE)

Talisman Holdings, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: TMHO), a diversified holding company, announced that it has entered into a preliminary agreement with Caribbean Peruvian Gold Mines Export S.A. with respect to a joint venture on gold property in Peru.

This agreement signals Talisman's entry into the precious metals field, and is a strategic move to create participation in the dynamic Peruvian gold market. Peru's favorable mining policies produce an encouraging investment climate. This conducive attitude, coupled with Peru's rich gold history and geology, make it an attractive gold exploration opportunity for the Company.

The targeted property is located from 2,300 to 3,800 metres above sea level, in an area of intense and favorable mining activity, and encompasses an area of 400 hectares.

Presently, the property is in limited production, with results to date, coupled with a geological survey, indicating a successful find with a highest quality per ton rating.

The Company will be sending a team to Peru to undertake a further due diligence inspection of the property and review supporting documentation. The Company has up to 60 days to complete its due diligence and enter into a final and definitive joint venture agreement during which period the final terms will be negotiated by the parties.

Detailed announcements with respect to this project and additional gold properties will be made in due course.

David Long, Talisman President, commented: "We are focusing on acquisition, discovery and development of gold and precious metals worldwide. We believe this project, based on all preliminary indications, will be most successful and will serve to drive shareholder value. We are confident we're participating in a fantastic, underdeveloped opportunity."
