Talon Metals Corp. (TSX:TLO) announced an update on its Minnesota-based Tamarack North nickel-copper-PGM project, noting that 2014 exploration is now over. A 2015 exploration program has already begun.
Highlights from 2014 work include:
- Drill hole 14TK0213 intercepted a total of 17.34 meters of massive nickel-copper-PGE sulphide mineralization at 6.17% nickel (‘Ni’), 2.34% copper (‘Cu’), 1.72 g/t PGEs and 0.71 g/t gold (‘Au’), which equates to a 7.56% nickel equivalent (‘NiEq’) grade basis1.
- The massive nickel-copper-PGE sulphide mineralization intercepted in drill hole 14TK0213 represents a meaningful step-out from the current Massive Sulphide Unit Mineral Zone (‘MSU’), being approximately 54 meters from the MSU and 31 meters south of the most recent MSU intercept in drill hole 14TK0211 (reported in the Company’s news release on December 1, 2014 as 15.94 meters of massive nickel-copper-PGE sulphide mineralization at 7.14% Ni, 2.43% Cu, 1.49 g/t PGEs, which equates to a 8.49% NiEq grade basis) (See Figure 2).
- As a result of the positive results from the 2014 exploration program, further follow-up drilling is currently being planned as part of the 2015 winter exploration program.
