June 9, 2020
/CNW/ - Talisker Resources Ltd. ("Talisker" or the "Company") (CSE:
TSK) (OTCQB: TSKFF) is pleased to announce results from holes SB-2020-003 and SB-2020-004
as wells as partial results for hole SB-2020-005A from the Company's
11,200m
drill program
targeting high-grade veins at the Bralorne Gold Project located in
British Columbia
.
Highlights include:
SB-2020-004 – Pioneer Area
27.60 g/t Au over
0.50m
from
320.50m
to
321.00m
12.65 g/t Au over
0.50m
from
374.40m
to
374.90m
SB-2020-005A – Bralorne Area
19.97 g/t Au over
5.10m
from
102.70m
to
107.80m
Including 20.8 g/t over
0.6m
from
102.7m
to
103.3m
And 57.8 g/t over
1.5m
from
106.3m
to
107.8m
5.81 g/t Au over
0.97m
from
563.03m
to
564.00m
"Hole 5A returned our highest grade and widest mineralised intercept to date," commented
Terry
Harbort
, President & CEO of Talisker, who added, "We are also very pleased to be encountering
numerous previously unknown mineralised structures, with these additional veins highlighting the
growing potential of the Bralorne Gold Project."
Hole SB-2020-003 targeted a near surface portion of the P Main Vein Splay in the Pioneer area but
terminated in a void before the target was reached and did not produce any significant assays. This
void intersection has assisted in repositioning the underground mine as-built model at Pioneer.
Hole SB-2020-004 targeted the down-dip continuation of the P Main Vein Splay targeted in hole 3.
The hole intersected 27.6 g/t gold over
0.5m
in the P Main Vein Splay. The hole subsequently
intersected 12.65 g/t gold over
0.5m
at the P Main Vein.
Hole SB-2020-005A marked the beginning of Stage 2 of the drilling plan, which is designed to target
known structures proximal to historic workings, guided by historic underground exploration drift
assay data. Stage 2 targets are at depths between 750 and
1,500m
below surface near the historic
Bralorne Mine.
Hole SB-2020-005A targeted the 59, 51 and 73 veins. This hole intersected a previously unknown,
close to surface mineralized structure at
102.7m
returning a four-sample composite of 19.97 g/t gold
over
5.1m
including 57.8 g/t over
1.5m
from
106.3m
to
107.8m
. The hole was suspended at a depth
of
737.4m
late in March in response to the COVID-19 crisis. SB-2020-005A was resumed late May,
after the Company returned to site under new health protocols and was drilled to a depth of
1,013.10m
. The results for hole 5A in this release represent the upper portion of the hole drilled prior
to the COVID-19 crisis shut-down. Assay results from the lower portion are pending.
Similar to holes SB-2020-001 and SB-2020-002 (press releases dated
April 1
st
and
May 5
th
),
significant gold mineralization was also identified in the altered halos proximal to the veins and
associated with intense silica-sericite alteration. Select results from drill holes SB-2020-004 and
partial results of hole SB-2020-005A are listed in the following table and a map and cross section
displaying the location of drill holes SB-2020-003, SB-2020-004, and SB-2020-005A, and significant
mineralized intercepts is attached to this press release.

Notes: Diamond drill hole SB-2020-004 was collared at an azimuth of 149 degrees, and a downward dip of 56 degrees. SB-2020-005A was collared at an azimuth of 154
degrees and, and a downward dip of 55 degrees. Hole SB-2020-005 ddeviated off the planned trajectory and was shut down before encountering any targets. SB-2020-
005A was the recollar of SB-2020-005. No significant intercepts were received from hole SB-2020-003. True widths are estimated at 65 - 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.

The technical information contained in this news release has been approved by
Leonardo de Souza

Sample Preparation and QAQC
Drill core at the Bralorne 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
3 m
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, at their laboratory in
North
Vancouver, 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 (code PREP-31).
Gold and in diamond drill core is analysed by fire assay and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS)
of a 50g sample (code Au-AA24), 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 Au-AA24 has an upper detection limit of 10ppm. Any sample that produces an
over-limit gold value via the Au-AA24 technique is sent for gravimetric finish via method Au-GRA22
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 3 ppm Au are re-
analysed with method Au-
SCR24
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.
