Talon Metals Receives an Extension in Respect of Its
Option to Purchase the Tamarack Project
Road Town, British Virgin Islands--(Newsfile Corp. - November 3, 2017) - Talon Metals Corp. (TSX: TLO) (
"Talon"
or the
"Company"
) is pleased to provide an update on the Tamarack Nickel-Copper-PGE project ("
Tamarack Project
"), located in
Minnesota, USA.
The Tamarack Project comprises the Tamarack North Project and the Tamarack South Project.
Talon currently
owns an 18.45% interest in the Tamarack Project.
As previously announced on September 25, 2017, Talon's wholly owned subsidiary, Talon Nickel (USA) LLC (
"Talon Nickel"
),
has received the exclusive option (the
"Purchase Option"
) to purchase Kennecott Exploration Company's (
"KEX"
) 81.55%
interest in the Tamarack Project (which would give Talon Nickel a 100% interest in the Tamarack Project) on the terms and
conditions set forth under the Exploration and Option Agreement between KEX and Talon Nickel (the
"Exploration and Option
Agreement"
).
Previously, Talon Nickel had until November 6, 2017 to make an election as to whether it will exercise the Purchase Option.
However, following a request by Talon for an extension of time to make its election, KEX has agreed to grant Talon Nickel until
December 31, 2017.
In return for this accommodation by KEX, Talon Nickel has agreed to grant KEX a 0.5% NSR in the event
Talon Nickel exercises the Purchase Option.
