Talisker Resources Ltd. (“
Talisker” or the
“
Company”) (TSX:TSK | OTCQX:TSKFF) is pleased to
announce additional high-grade drill results highlighted by
36.84 g/t Au over 1.00 metres within a broader interval of
3.71 g/t over 12.50 metres at its 100% owned flagship
Bralorne Gold Project.
Key Points:
- Talisker initiated resource
conversion drilling on October 17, 2023 with 15,000 metres of
planned drilling.
- Hole SB-2023-017A intersected
36.84 g/t Au over 1.00 metres within a broader interval of
3.71 g/t Au over 12.50 metres on the BK Vein.
- Hole SB-2023-007 intersected
16.29 g/t Au over 2.10 metres within a broader interval of
8.18 g/t Au over 4.45 metres on the Alhambra Vein.
- Hole SB-2023-006 intersected
10.27 g/t Au over 1.9 metres on the BK-9870
Vein.
- The resource conversion drill
program is focused on increasing confidence in the Alhambra and BK
Vein.
Felipe Castaneda, Vice President, Technical
Services of Talisker, stated, “Our team is very pleased with the
high-grade results we continue to receive from the Mustang Mine
resource conversion drilling campaign. Hole SB-2023-017A confirms
grade continuity within the BK vein’s proposed planned stopes for
2025 and 2026. Hole SB-2023-006 extends the BK-9870 structure up
dip approximately 35m from currently planned stopes, while
SB-2023-007 extends the Alhambra vein laterally to the southeast.
We’re also very excited to see the thickness of the mineralized
halo surrounding the vein structures, which will help to reduce
dilution and improve overall mineability during test mining.”
SB-2023-006 Description
- Complete results received.
- Located in the King block and
intersected dioritic intrusive.
- BK-9870 Vein intersected from 34.55
to 35.55m as a brecciated quartz vein hosting arsenopyrite and
pyrite mineralization with moderate silica alteration.
SB-2023-007 Description
- Complete results received.
- Located in the King block and
intersected dioritic intrusive.
- Alhambra Vein intersected from
146.55 to 147.65m as a banded brecciated quartz vein hosting
visible gold, arsenopyrite and pyrite mineralization.
SB-2023-017A Description
- Complete results received.
- Located in the King block and
intersected dioritic intrusive.
- BK Vein intersected from 309.55 to
310.55m as a banded brecciated quartz vein hosting visible gold,
arsenopyrite and pyrite mineralization.
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.

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 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
