(TSX: TLO) (\"Talon\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to provide an update on the Tamarack Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project (\"Tamarack Nickel Project\"), located in central Minnesota.Figure 1: 15.08 meters of mixed and massive sulphide nickel and copper mineralization in 21TK0355 beginning at 202.86 meters depthTo view an enhanced version of Figure 1, please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/2443/112233_01756ab52428b9bf_001full.jpg The drilling campaign continues at the Tamarack Nickel Project, with 4 drill rigs currently turning. The Talon team reports an additional 31 new drill holes outside of the Tamarack Nickel Project's resource area, within the CGO West area. The CGO West area lies approximately 100 meters north-north-east of the Tamarack Nickel Project's resource area and extends for an additional 400 meters beyond where past drilling showed the presence of nickel-copper mineralization. All of the new holes reported today have intercepted nickel-copper mineralization, with assays pending. \"Our in-house geology, geophysics and geotechnical teams go from strength to strength with the drill program at the Tamarack Nickel Project. While maintaining a zealous focus on safety in a prolonged pandemic, the team is still able to deploy rigs in the right places, set records for meters drilled per day and add significantly to our understanding of the CGO West area,\" said Henri van Rooyen, CEO of Talon Metals.Of note, drill hole 21TK0355 intercepted 15.08 meters of mixed and massive nickel and copper mineralization, beginning at only 202.86 meters depth. This occurrence is a 50-meter step-out from previous drill hole 21TK0348, which intersected 13.77 meters of massive nickel-copper mineralization and is open along trend. The intercept in drill hole 21TK0355 is deeper than the large sheet of nickel and copper mineralization previously reported nearby, suggesting that another layer of massive mineralization may be present at this location (See Figure 2). Drilling in 2022 will further investigate this potential.Additio...
