Tortola - Talon Metals Corp. ('Talon' or the 'Company') (TSX: TLO) is pleased to provide an update on the Tamarack Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project ('Tamarack Nickel Project'), located in Minnesota, USA.
The Tamarack Nickel Project comprises the Tamarack North Project and the Tamarack South Project.
HIGHLIGHTS
Drill hole 20TK0278 intersected 21.73 meters (71.2 feet) of mixed massive sulphide mineralization, starting at 459.72 meters. Assays remain pending.
This drill hole sets a new record at the Tamarack Nickel Project, as it represents the longest intersection of mixed massive sulphides at the Tamarack Nickel Project to date.
The drill hole was a 27 meter step out into an area with very limited information (as the area has previously not been explored).
'We are thrilled to report that we have set a new record at the Tamarack Nickel Project - an intercept of 21.73 meters (71.2 feet) of nickel-copper mineralization' said Brian Goldner, Head of Exploration. 'Of note, this new drill hole is in an area that to date, has been largely underexplored. The hole will likely have the meaningful impact of extending our western high-grade Massive Sulphide Unit (MSU). This news continues to motivate the entire Talon team and going forward, we plan to continue to follow this new trend of high-grade nickel-copper mineralization towards the south, with the potential to find more nickel-copper mineralization'.

These forward-looking statements reflect the current expectations or beliefs of the Company based on information currently available to the Company. Such forward-looking statements include statements relating to the timing and results of the exploration program, including assay results, grades, geophysical potential and results, and drilling plans; the likelihood that drill hole 20TK0278 will extend the western high-grade MSU; the potential to extend mineralization, including towards the south; the potential to expand the Tamarack Nickel Project's resource area; the potential to bring the Tamarack Nickel Project's resource area into the indicated resource category and the completion of feasibility studies. Forward-looking statements are subject to significant risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements, and even if such actual results are realized or substantially realized, there can be no assurance that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on the Company.
