Talisker Announces Further High Grade Results from Bralorne East and the Pioneer Blocks
Talisker Announces Further High Grade
Results from Bralorne East and the
Pioneer Blocks
TORONTO, Feb. 8, 2022 /CNW/ - Talisker Resources Ltd. ("Talisker"
or the "Company") (TSX: TSK) (OTCQX: TSKFF) is pleased to
announce further high grade results from multiple drill holes
highlighted by 22.41 g/t Au over 1.50 metres (SB-2021-094) and
10.39 g/t Au over 2.70 metres (SB-2021-092) on the 77 and 51BFW
veins respectively at its 100% owned flagship Bralorne Gold Project.
Key Points:
• The holes in this release are located within the Bralorne East
and Pioneer blocks. Principal targets were the 77, 51BFW and
Main veins.
• Hole SB-2021-094 intercepted the 77 vein close to surface which
graded 22.41 g/t Au over 1.50 metres increasing the total
number of intercepts on the 77 vein to 47.
• Hole SB-2021-099 and 099A both intersected high grade gold on
the Main vein highlighted by 14.57 g/t Au over 1.45 metres
within 4.60 g/t Au over 5.10 metres and 12.34 g/t Au over
1.15 metres respectively increasing total intercepts on the Main
vein to 30.
• SB-2021-092 intersected the 51BFW vein highlighted by 10.39
g/t Au over 2.70 metres increasing the total intercepts on the
51BFW vein to 18.
• Talisker drilling to date at the Bralorne Gold Project has
produced 278 vein intersections with a combined weighted
average diluted grade of 8.35 g/t over an average intersection
length of 1.87 metres.
Terry Harbort, President and CEO of Talisker commented, "As we
receive the final assays from the 2021 resource drill campaign, we
continue to deliver high grade intersects that are consistent with what
we expect from historical averages. It is this consistency and grade
continuity that sets the Bralorne Gold Project apart."
Seven diamond drills are now operating at the Bralorne Gold Project.
A total of 111,017 metres (218 holes) has been drilled since Talisker
initiated drilling at the Bralorne Gold Project in February 2020.
Currently there are 2,578 samples at the assay laboratory which are
expected to be received by the Company shortly.

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.
