TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / January 25, 2022 / Talisker Resources Ltd. ("Talisker" or the "Company") (TSX:TSK)(OTCQX:TSKFF) is pleased to announce high-grade results from multiple drill holes highlighted by 55.25 g/t Au over 1.3 metres (SB-2021-090) and 23.58 g/t Au over 1.80 metres within 5.26 g/t Au over 8.90 metres (SB-2021-087) on the 52 Vein at its 100% owned flagship Bralorne Gold Project.
Key Points:
- The drill holes in this release are located within the Bralorne East Complex.
- All three drill holes in this release intersected the 52 vein over a 660-metre strike length.
- Hole SB-2021-090 intersected the 52 vein highlighted by 55.25 g/t Au over 1.30 metres and the J vein which intersected 10.10 g/t Au over 0.55 metres.
- SB-2021-087 intersected the 52 vein highlighted by 23.85 g/t Au over 1.80 metres within 5.26 g/t Au over 8.90 metres.
- Hole SB-2021-085 intersected the 52 vein highlighted by 14.13 g/t Au over 2.50 metres and a New vein highlighted by 7.59 g/t Au over 1.45 metres.
- The previous drilling on the 52 vein returned high-grade assays highlighted by hole SB-2021-069 which returned 10.09 g/t Au over 4.35 metres and SB-2021-030 which returned 19.95g/t Au over 1.00 metres.
Terry Harbort, CEO of Talisker, commented, "These three holes confirm high grade mineralization over a significant strike length, highlighting the extensive vein continunity known as one of the defining characteristics of the Bralorne deposit. We are very pleased with the consistency of the gold mineralization intercepted in this structure and see the 52 vein building to one of the important ore bodies of our upcoming resource."
Six diamond drills and 1 RC drill are currently operating at Bralorne. A total of 104,162 metres (197 holes) has been completed since Talisker initiated drilling at the Project in February 2020. 26,365 samples are currently at the assay laboratory and are expected to be received by the Company shortly.

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 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 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 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 analysed 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 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 (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.
