Telson Resources Inc. Obtains Two Semarnat Permits, One for
Tailing Facility Reactivation Plus Another for Construction of New
and Expanded Tailing Facility at Tahuehueto
Vancouver, British Columbia, August 22, 2017 – Telson Resources Inc. (“Telson” or the “Company”) (TSX
Venture – TSN.V) is pleased to announce that it has received pe rmits from Semarnat (Secretaria de Medio
Ambiente y Recursos Naturales) (“Semarnat”) for the reactivation of the existing tailings disposal facility and
for the construction of a new larger tailings facility for the Tahuehueto Project, located in northwestern
Durango State, Mexico.
The reactivation of the existing tailing facility will allow dr y stack tailings disposal under the Company’s
current operating plan for Ta huehueto. This tailings facility c overs 3.78 hectares, has an authorized tailing
capacity of 382,622 m3 and is now permitted for construction upgrade to reactivate and will handle the project’s
initial tailing disposal requirements over the first 1 - 2 years of operation.
The permit granted by Semarnat for the construction of a new ta ilings disposal facility allows for the
installation of a new and larger tailings disposal facility that will easily accommodate the mine plan envisioned
within the Company’s December 6, 2016 Pre-Feasibility Study (th e “PFS” - which is available on SEDAR or
Telson’s website). This new permit covers an area of 9.38 hectares and is aut horized under the Semarnat
permit just granted for an initial capacity of 13,255,407 m 3 which will accommodate tailings from the current
3.264 million tonnes of reserves targeted for mining within the PFS.
At a milling rate of 1,000 tonnes per day, planned to be obtain ed within the first year of operation, Telson
expects to operate under the current Semarnat permit for approximately 11 years. The ultimate capacity of the
new tailings disposal facility at Tahuehueto will allow for approximately 38 years of operation at the projected
mill throughput of 350,000 tonnes per year which will allow for possible expansion of the project upon
successful exploration and development of new reserves and resources.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Statements contained in this news release that are not historical facts are “forward-looking information” or
“forward-looking statements” (collectively, “Forw ard-Looking Information”) within the meaning of
applicable Canadian securities laws. Forward Looking Information includes, but is not limited to, disclosure
regarding possible events, conditions or financial perfor mance that is based on assumptions about future
economic conditions and courses of action; the timi ng and costs of future activities on the Company’s
properties; success of exploration, development and bulk sample processing activities; anticipated results of
check assay results; and processing plans at the Atocha Mineral Processing Plant for mineralized material
from the Company’s Tahuehueto project. In certain cases, Forward-Looking Information can be identified by
the use of words and phrases such as “plans”, “expects” , “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”,
“anticipates” or variations of such words and phrases. In preparing the Forward-Looking Information in this
news release, the Company has applied several material assumptions, including, but not limited to, that the
current exploration, development, environmental and other objectives concerning the Tahuehueto Project can
be achieved; that the implementation of the selective mining method will prove feasible based on the results of
the bulk sample; that the mineral processing plant recen tly acquired by the Company will be successfully
installed and commissioned, the con tinuity of the price of gold and other metals, economic and political
conditions and operations. Forward- Looking Information involves know n and unknown risks, uncertainties
and other factors which may cause the actual results, p erformance or achievements of the Company to be
materially different from any future results, perform ance or achievements expressed or implied by the

Cautionary Note Regarding References to Resources and Reserves
This news release uses the terms "measured and indi cated resources" and "inferred resources". We advise
U.S. investors that while these term s are defined in, and permitted by, Canadian regulations, these terms are
not defined terms under SEC Industry Guide 7 and not normally permitted to be used in reports and
registration statements filed with the SEC. "Inferred resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their
existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any
part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgrade d to a higher category. Under Canadian rules,
estimates of inferred mineral resources ma y not form the basis of a feasibility study or prefeasibility studies,
except in rare cases. The SEC normally only permits issuers to report minera lization that does not constitute
SEC Industry Guide 7 compliant "reserves", as in-place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures.
U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any par t or all of mineral deposits in this category will ever
be converted into reserves. U.S. in vestors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of an inferred
resource exists or is economically or legally minable.
