Tartisan Resources Corp. Provides “next steps” For Nickel Assets

• Third, the Company has initiated discussions with environmental consultants on starting the long-term baseline environmental surveys that would be required for any developmental solution for the Kenbridge Project in the future.

“We are accelerating the understanding of the Kenbridge Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project”, said Tartisan CEO Mark Appleby, “because we believe that the PEA filed in 2008 mitigates the bulk of discovery risk and much of the developmental risk such that we want to ensure that a fast- track to development is in place for both technical endeavor and regulatory permitting.”

“For the Alexo-Kelex Nickel Project, Tartisan is assimilating the geological and geophysical data to determine whether a continuation of the small volume bulk sample mining of the Alexo Sector and the Kelex Sector, started by Canadian Arrow Mines Limited is feasible technically, and within relevant regulations as regards to bulk sampling and environmental remediation of past works”.

Canadian Arrow Mines Limited shipped about 30,000 tonnes of 1.3% nickel to a local mill for metallurgical analysis and processing in 2004 to 2005 from the Alexo-Kelex Nickel Project.

Additionally, at the Don Pancho Zinc-Lead-Silver-Manganese Project in Peru, negotiations are ongoing with consultants that specialize in community relations and environmental compliance as the Company gears up for a bulk sample and surface drilling program at Don Pancho.
