Feb. 15, 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
17.18 g/t over 2.00 metres
(SB-2021-
101B
)
and
13.22 g/t Au over 1.80 metres
(SB-2021-095) at its 100% owned flagship Bralorne Gold Project.
Key Points:
The drill holes in this release are located within the Bralorne West block. The principal targets were the 101 and 55 veins.
Hole SB-2021-
101B
intersected
17.18 g/t Au over 2.00 metres
in a new vein.
Hole SB-2021-095 intersected high grade gold on the 101 vein close to surface highlighted by
36.20 g/t Au over 0.5 metres
within 13.22 g/t Au over 1.80 metres,
increasing the total number of intercepts on the 101 vein to 52.
Hole SB-2021-095 intersected
14.03 g/t Au over 1.00 metre
in a new vein.
Hole SB-2021-
101B
intersected the 55 vein highlighted by
9.75 g/t Au over 0.50 metres within 6.81 g/t Au over 1.00 metres
increasing total intercepts on the 55 vein to 49.
All new veins are currently being modelled to understand the strike and dip potential.
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 approach our maiden resource statement, we continue to see
high grade consistent results that highlight the incredible grade continuity of the Bralorne Gold Project. We expect to have the
remaining 2021 assays back in the next few weeks and will continue to update the market with incoming results."
Seven diamond drills are now operating at the Bralorne Gold Project. A total of 113,250 metres (223 holes) has been drilled since
Talisker initiated drilling at the Project in
February 2020
. Currently, there are 3,097 samples at the assay laboratory, which are
expected to be received by the Company shortly.

SB-2021-
101B
Hole Description
Complete preliminary results received
Located in the Bralorne West block and intersected dioritic intrusive
New vein intersected from 335.00 to
337.00 m
55 vein intersected from 610.65 to
611.65 m
with visible gold
Major vein structures intersected are considered classic Bralorne crack-seal quartz-carbonate veins with densely banded sulphide
septae. Crack-seal septae host fine-grained arsenopyrite and pyrite mineralization. Alteration halos consist of strong silica-
sericite±mariposite alteration halos.

Notes: Diamond drill hole SB-2021-095 has collar orientation of Azimuth 208; Dip -45. Diamond drill hole SB-2021-101B has a collar orientation of Azimuth 166; Dip -45. True widths are estimated at 40 - 90% of intercept lengths and are
based on oriented core measurements where available. Method Reported includes the most up-to-date information as of the date of this press release.
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

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
a minimum of 50 cm and a maximum of 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 makeup 9% of the samples submitted to the
lab for holes reported in this release. ALS Global performs sample preparation and analyses 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 analyzed 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 analyzed 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
