(TSX: TLO) (OTC Pink: TLOFF) (\"Talon\" or the \"Company\"), the majority owner and operator of the Tamarack Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project (\"Tamarack Nickel Project\") in central Minnesota, has successfully intercepted new high-grade nickel-copper mineralization nearly 2 miles (3.2 km) outside of the current nickel-copper resource area. Talon believes it has confirmed a brand new \"system\" of high-grade nickel-copper mineralization within the Tamarack Intrusive Complex.  Figure 1: High-grade nickel massive sulphide intersected in 3 new holes all within the Raptor Zone (assays pending) To view an enhanced version of Figure 1, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2443/151822_458fe2ffa461da83_001full.jpgBrian Goldner, Chief Exploration and Operations Officer of Talon, said: \"New drilling shows us that the Tamarack Intrusive Complex can be a district-scale nickel-copper resource right here in the United States. We've moved nearly 2 miles outside of the Company's current nickel-copper resource area and successfully intercepted high-grade nickel-copper in a different intrusion (new system) as compared to the current resource area. While still early in the process, these preliminary results provide definitive evidence that the Tamarack Intrusive Complex has district-scale potential, and as a consequence of these exciting initial results, we intend to make further exploration along the Tamarack Intrusive Complex a priority in 2023.\" Goldner continued: \"Last year's discovery of the shallow high-grade nickel mineralization in the CGO West area started with only a small 1.3-meter intercept of high-grade nickel massive sulphide - that mineralization ultimately grew to nearly 14 meters thick only 25 meters away. I expect this same thickening could occur in the new area called the \"Raptor Zone\", especially with the amount of unexplored space we have to work with.\"Todd Malan, Chief Extern...
