This News Release\npertains to Broadview South, which hosts several interesting\ngeophysical anomalies that occur in close proximity to areas of known\nmineralization; Broadview South is the first of three important areas\nwhich will be discussed in upcoming News Releases.

The South Tusk is a\nsubsurface conductivity high that trends northwesterly through the\nBroadview Mine area. The depth of this feature is approximately 500 m\nbelow surface; it is a feature of great interest to Taranis because of\nits proximity and connection to the Broadview deposit. Taranis\nconducted exploration work in this area in the summer of 2022,\nincluding magnetic and VLF surveying, NIR/SWIR scans, geological\nmapping, and petrology/geochemistry studies.\n \n \n \n Overview\n \n \n \n In 2022, a boulder field of intrusive rocks (diorite-monzonite\ncomposition) was uncovered west of the Broadview Mine. The majority of\nthe large boulders were buried in soil and attempts to find the source\nof the boulders failed. Since the intrusive rocks have extremely low\nmagnetic susceptibility (similar to the Max Mine porphyry) the source\nof these boulders could not be located with magnetic surveys. There is\nother evidence to support the interpretation that these intrusive\nrocks came from this area, including a VLF survey that identified a\nsizeable subsurface conductive anomaly, and distinct hornfels\nalteration of the Broadview Formati...
