(TSX: TLO) (\"Talon\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the discovery of new geophysical anomalies that highlight the potential for a 1 km extension of nickel-copper sulphide mineralization at the Tamarack Nickel-Copper-Cobalt project (\"Tamarack Project\"), located in Minnesota, USA. The Tamarack Project comprises the Tamarack North Project and the Tamarack South Project. SummaryAs part of the Company's Winter 2020 Exploration Program, the Company completed a Surface Electro-Magnetic (\"Surface EM\") geophysical survey over (i) the Company's existing resource area as a control survey; and (ii) an area extending 1 km south of the Company's resource area to identify new exploration targets.Within the existing resource area, the Surface EM confirmed a long linear target at a depth of 400 meters to 500 meters, which corresponds with the depth of the existing high-grade mineralization.The Surface EM survey south of the Company's resource area identified a continuous string of anomalies along a 1 km path at a depth that is consistent with mineralization found in the Company's resource area (Figure 1 - L8200, L8000, L7800, L7600 and L7400). These Surface EM anomalies connect the resource area's massive sulphides to other massive sulphides previously discovered 1 km to the south of the resource area. This indicates that larger connected resources may exist within this region of limited drilling. \"We have always hoped that Surface EM would be able to help identify mineralization at the Tamarack Project,\" said Brian Bengert, Talon's Geophysicist. \"Historically, this project area has been hamstrung by near surface conductive features that have shielded the targets below. Using the combined knowledge gained over the years on this project, we created a low-frequency, large loop survey design, and novel time series processing methods that allowed us to penetrate these shielding conductors and identify the EM signatures of the Tamarack sulphides at depth. This robust methodology could prove to be a very cost-effective way to make new discoveries along the 18-kilometer Tamarack Intrusive Complex. As part of the next program...
