Toronto, Canada, February 17, 2021 – Tartisan Nickel Corp. (CSE: TN; US-OTC: TTSRF;
FSE: A2D ) (“Tartisan”, or the “Company” ) is pleased t o announce that the Company has
purchased a 100% interest in certain claims in the Sault Ste. Marie Mining District in Ontario to
complete the Sill Lake lead-silver property package.
The mining claims purchased are located in Van Koughnet Township, about 30 km north of
Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario . A cash payment of $ 75,000; the issuance of 100,000 common shares
in the capital of Tartisan Nickel Corp. and a 2% net smelter return royalty (subject to a 1% buy -
back provision for $250,000) has been paid and assigned in consideration to the vendors . The
Company additionally reports that 17 single cell mining claims contiguous to the Sill Lake land
package have been staked. The Sill Lake lead-silver project now consists of 47 single cell mining
claims which represents 933.57 hectares.
Lead-silver mineralization was originally discovered at Sill Lake in 1892, when a 30m adit was
driven to a 17m internal shaft, with app roximately 40m of lateral development to exploit a lead -
silver vein. The Sill Lake lead-silver property was later defined by explorers who conducted a
3750m of diamond drill program along a defined steeply dipping mineralized trend some 850m
in length, wi th mineralized widths varying between 1.5m and 4.5m. The Sill Lake Lead -Silver
Project has seen two distinct periods of underground development and production and it is
estimated that 7,000 tonnes of ore containing lead and silver were mined. In 20 10, a historical NI
43-101 Technical Report gave a measured and indicated mineral resource of 112,751 tonnes at
134 g/t silver; 0.62% lead, and 0.21% zinc. The historical resource estimate used a silver cutoff
grade of 60 g/t; but no cutoff grade for the base metal content was used. Tartisan Nickel Corp.
announced on November 18, 2020 that SMX International Corp. was retained to update the Sill
Lake Lead-Silver Property historical NI 43-101 Resource Report. The Technical Report should
be available in the first quarter of 2021.
Tartisan CEO Mark Appleby stated, “The purchase of th ese Sill Lake lead-silver claims
enhances the Sill Lake property package . Tartisan believes the Sill Lake Lead-Silver Project
should generate shareholder value in the short term”.
