SB-2023-026 Description
- All assays have been received.
- Located in the King block and
hosted in diorite intrusive.
- Intersected the BK-9870 vein from
51.70 – 57.00 m.
SB-2023-030A Description
- All assays have been received.
- Located in the King block and
hosted in diorite intrusive.
- Intersected the BK-9870 vein from
62.90 – 63.50 m.
- Intersected the Alhambra vein from
159.75 – 160.35 m
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-2023-026 has a collar orientation of
Azimuth 112.91; Dip -60.04. Diamond drill hole SB-2023-030A has a
collar orientation of Azimuth 113.02; Dip -69.59. 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
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
