Toronto, Ontario, October 27, 2020 – Talisker Resources Ltd. (“Talisker” or the “Company”) (TSX:TSK) (OTCQX:TSKFF) is pleased to provide an update on its Greenfield’s exploration program at its Spences Bridge, Remington and Golden Hornet projects, all located in British Columbia (see Figure 1 – Location Map).  Collectively, the projects comprise 188 claims over a 2,406 square kilometre area (240,602 ha). Over the course of the 2020 summer field season, a team of 20 geologists executed a comprehensive geochemical program collecting soil (6,020), stream (273), rock (529) and talus fine (23) samples and 1:5000 scale geological and reconnaissance mapping across all three project areas.  This included the completion of the Company’s Phase 1 program over the entirety of the Spences Bridge Gold Project area, where 13 prospects have been generated. Talisker has initiated permitting for the purpose of diamond drilling on the Golden Hornet Project and Dora target and anticipates receiving approval in early 2021.
 
Highlights for this year’s Greenfield’s exploration field season included the discovery of outcropping, epithermal-style quartz veins at its Nova and Cyclone prospects (see Figure 1) located on its Spences Bridge Gold Project where no historic work has been reported at either prospect previously. Work at the Golden Hornet Project followed up on historic trench sample assays (up to 30 g/t gold) with rock chip samples from outcrop yielding gold values up to 26 g/t (see Figure 1).  Follow-up work also brought the Falcon, Cobra and Dora prospects closer to drill ready status. Talisker notes that receipt of assay results has been hindered due to the large volume of samples currently backlogged at analytical laboratories in British Columbia, Canada.
 
Terry Harbort, President and CEO of Talisker stated, “We are extremely pleased with the progress we have made on our Spences Bridge, Remington and Golden Hornet projects this year, particularly the discovery of epithermal-style quartz veins within some of our key prospects.  Some of the veins encountered in outcrop at our Nova prospect in particular exhibit classic colloform and opalized silica vein textures characteristic of classic high-level epithermal environments.  We are currently preparing geophysical surveys over key areas and soil geochemical surveys at Golden Hornet and the Nova and Cyclone prospects are well advanced. We look forward to advancing these exciting new discoveries alongside our continued drilling campaign at our Bralorne Gold Project.”
 
The Company anticipates receipt of its soil geochemical survey at Golden Hornet in the near term, while more assay results from the Company’s drilling program at the Bralorne Gold Project are expected in the coming weeks.  Meanwhile, the mobilization of two additional drill rigs announced on October 19, 2020 is proceeding on schedule, with the transport of additional office and accommodation space currently underway.
 

 
Highlights from Talisker’s 2020 Greenfields exploration program include the following:
 
Spences Bridge Project
 
Cyclone and Nova
 
The Cyclone and Nova prospects were discovered through follow-up work on Phase 1 exploration from the 2019 field season. Both prospects are highlighted by two newly discovered low-sulphidation epithermal systems associated with anomalous stream-sediment samples.  The Company notes that no previous work has been reported at either prospect. Scale mapping (1:5000) with upper-level epithermal rock textures identified and preliminary assays returning pathfinder and rock-chip samples are currently awaiting assaying at the lab (see Figure 2a).  While the extent of these vein systems is not yet fully understood, Talisker notes that only 5 kilometres separates the Nova and Cyclone target areas, illustrating the potential for an extensive epithermal system. These prospects will be the focus of Phase 2 exploration in 2020 and early 2021.
 
Falcon, Cobra and Dora
 
Results from the 3,382 soil samples collected earlier in the 2020 field season at the Falcon and Cobra prospects both yielded gold-in-soil geochemical anomalies that were followed up with mapping and prospecting. The Falcon soil geochemistry survey yielded a robust 1500m x 600m, northwest trending coincident gold (including pathfinder elements) anomaly associated with a silica-clay altered rhyolite dome hosting colloform and chalcedonic quartz veins consistent with low-sulphidation epithermal systems (Figure 2A, 2B). Mapping was completed at the Dora prospect, where several linear-trending gold-in-soil anomalies coincident with gold mineralized rhyolitic dykes of 1 to 6 g/t gold were defined and identified last year. Meanwhile, results from the soil survey at Cobra defined an 1,800m x 600m multi-element anomaly including gold and pathfinder elements consistent with skarn systems. Given epithermal and skarn-type systems require different approaches to exploration, Talisker is assessing its exploration strategy for all three prospects which will be drill ready once geophysical surveys have been completed.
 
Golden Hornet
 
Work commenced at the Golden Hornet property, which is under an option agreement signed by Talisker late January 2020 and included a soil geochemical survey, geological mapping and rock-chip sampling. Preliminary rock-chip assay results from outcropping quartz veins returned values up to 26 g/t gold (Figure 2C), reflecting the historic trench samples of up to 30 g/t gold associated with massive sulphide and sheeted quartz veins.  Phase 2 soil geochemistry and detailed geological mapping is complete, however, results from the soil survey are pending the backlog of samples at the assay lab in British Columbia.
 
Remington
 
Phase 1 exploration work continued at the Remington project, with 149 stream sediment samples collected, adding to the 227 samples collected last year. A total of 609 first order stream drainages have been investigated at Remington.  Samples were submitted and remain at the lab awaiting analysis.
