M
ajor 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

Qualified Person
T
he 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

About Talisker Resources Ltd.
Talisker (taliskerresources.com) is a junior resource company involved in the exploration and
development of gold projects in British Columbia, Canada. Talisker’s flagship asset is the high-grade, fully
permitted Bralorne Gold Project where the Company is currently transitioning into underground
production at the Mustang Mine. Talisker projects also include the Ladner Gold Project, an advanced
stage project with significant exploration potential from an historical high-grade producing gold mine and
the Spences Bridge Project where the Company holds ~85% of the emerging Spences Bridge Gold Belt,
and several other early-stage Greenfields 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.
