[{"type":"text","content":"Talon Intersects Its Highest Nickel and Copper Grades of the Drill Program at the Tamarack Project: 7.14 Meters (23.4 Feet) Grading 10.15% Nickel Equivalent (Or 27.06% Copper Equivalent)Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands--(Newsfile Corp. - June 3, 2020) - Talon Metals Corp. (TSX: TLO) (\"Talon\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that the Company has received assays from another drill hole from its winter 2020 exploration program at the Tamarack Nickel-Copper-Cobalt project (\"Tamarack Project\"), located in Minnesota, USA - this drill hole represents the highest nickel and copper grades intersected to date during the Company's winter 2020 exploration program. The Tamarack Project comprises the Tamarack North Project and the Tamarack South Project.Drill hole 12TK0153C intersected 7.14 meters (23.4 feet) of mixed and massive sulphides (\"MMS\") grading 8.31% Ni, 3.26% Cu, 0.16% Co, 0.65 g/t Pd, 0.84 g/t Pt and 0.43 g/t Au (10.15% NiEq[1] or 27.06% CuEq[2]), starting at 578.45 meters (see Figure 1 and Annex 1);The above includes 2.5 meters (8.2 feet) of massive sulphides grading 9.65% Ni, 3.99% Cu, 0.18% Co, 0.82 g/t Pd,1.32 g/t Pt and 0.77 g/t Au (12.00% NiEq or 32.00% CuEq) starting at 580 meters.The primary objective of drill hole 12TK0153C was to test continuity of the high-grade Massive Sulphide Unit (\"MSU\") between previous drill holes 12TK153 and 13TK0171, with the distance in between these drill holes being approximately 50 meters (164 feet) (see Figure 1). Drill hole 12TK0153 intersected 12.19 meters (40 feet) of MMS grading 6.85% Ni, 3.02% Cu, 0.12% Co, 0.50 g/t Pd, 0.49 g/t Pt and 0.12 g/t Au (8.38% NiEq or 22.28% CuEq) starting at 555.86 meters;Drill hole 13TK0171 intersected 7.34 meters (24.1 feet) of MMS grading 8.28% Ni, 2.95% Cu, 0.15% Co, 0.55 g/t Pd, 0.39 g/t Pt and 0.19 g/t Au (9.81% NiEq or 26.06% CuEq) starting at 573.3 meters.\"The winter 2020 exploration program (which ran from January to March 2020) at Tamarack continues to deliver outstanding results,\" said Henri van Rooyen, CEO of Talon. \"Of note, the 9.65% Ni that we just intercepted in the resource area is similar to the 9.95% Ni previously intercepted approximately 3 km north of our resource area,[3] and the 9.3% nickel intercepted approximately 1.6 km north-east of our resource area[4].\" (see Annex 2) Mr. van Rooyen continued...
