Talisker Reports Mustang Underground Face Sample Results Defining a 36-metre Strike Length High-grade Shoot Averaging 27.88 g/t on the 1105 Level

TORONTO, Sept. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Talisker Resources Ltd. (“Talisker” or the “Company”) (TSX:TSK | OTCQX:TSKFF) is pleased to report a significant new high-grade gold discovery from underground development on the 1105 Level at the Mustang Mine. Development has exposed a continuous 36-metre strike length of high-grade mineralization along the M1 Vein, comprising a well-defined banded quartz vein averaging 27.88 grams per tonne (g/t) gold across an average true width of 0.61 metres. The mineralization occurs outside the defined Mineral Resource at time of discovery in a zone where high-grade mineralization had not previously been delineated. The M series of veins are third order structure that have a different strike and dip orientation to the main second order veins mined by Talisker such as the BK, BK-9870 and Alhambra. Talisker does not specifically target these veins for resource delineation as they are sub-parallel to the drill orientation required to target the larger second order veins, however the veins can be intersected during lateral development.

The M1 Vein is a relatively shallow, north-dipping vein beyond (north of) the BK-9870 vein, and south of the King vein in Mustang. The vein is characterized abundant by crack-seal textures and a sulphide assemblage dominated by pyrite and arsenopyrite, with trace sphalerite. Results highlight the potential for additional high-grade mineralization beyond the current Mineral Resource. The discovery reinforces the strong exploration upside surrounding existing underground infrastructure at the Bralorne Gold Project, British Columbia, Canada.

Key Highlights:

• 229.0 g/t over 0.63 m within 36.6 g/t over 4.60 m from 1105 M1 Vein, West Face No. 11
• 93.1 g/t over 0.63 m within 51.6 g/t over 1.58 m from 1105 M1 Vein, West Face No. 2
• 75.2 g/t over 0.94 m within 28.5 g/t over 2.95 m from 1105 M1 Vein, West Face No. 12
• 62.4 g/t over 1.19 m within 33.4 g/t over 2.32 m from 1105 M1 Vein, West Face No. 14
• 50.4 g/t over 0.61 m within 28.3 g/t over 2.38 m from 1105 M1 Vein, West Face No. 6
• 46.2 g/t over 0.52 m within 15.0 g/t over 2.73 m from 1105 M1 Vein, West Face No. 10
• 42.8 g/t over 1.09 m within 30.1 g/t over 1.58 m from 1105 M1 Vein, West Face No. 13
  
  

Terry Harbort, CEO of Talisker commented, “These results continue to demonstrate the exceptional exploration potential at Bralorne. Defining a high-grade shoot of this scale outside the Mineral Resource at time of discovery underscores the opportunity to identify additional mineralization and potentially expand the resource near existing underground infrastructure.”

About Talisker Resources Ltd.

Talisker (taliskerresources.com) is a junior resource company involved in the exploration and development of gold projects in British Columbia, Canada. Talisker’s flagship asset is the high-grade, fully permitted Bralorne Gold Project where the Company is producing at the Mustang Mine. Talisker projects also include the Ladner Gold Project, an historic high-grade gold mine near Hope, British Columbia, with significant exploration potential, and the Spences Bridge Project, where the Company has a significant landholding in the emerging Spences Bridge Gold Belt, as well as several other early-stage Greenfields projects.

Sample Preparation and QAQC

Channel sampling of underground ore headings at the Bralorne Gold Project was previously conducted by geologists using a rock saw to cut a horizontal 5 cm × 5 cm × up to 3.0 m groove across the entire face of the drift at a height of approximately 1.2 m above the sill. Following a robust statistical analysis comparing channel and chip sampling methods, Talisker transitioned to chip sampling, having demonstrated that the two methods produce statistically comparable results while improving operational efficiency and reducing sampling time. Under the current protocol, individual chip samples range from 0.35 m to 1.50 m in length and are selected to best represent identified geological structures, sulphide mineralization, or hydrothermal alteration suspected to bracket gold concentrations. Where vein or mineralized zones are wide, consecutive samples are collected across the structure to preserve geological resolution. Lithological breaks are avoided within a single sample wherever possible.

Quality assurance and quality control (QAQC) procedures include regular insertion of certified reference materials, blanks, and field duplicates into the sample stream at a rate of approximately 9% of total samples in this release.

All preparation and analytical work is performed by Activation Laboratories Ltd. (Actlabs) in Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada. Sample preparation follows Actlabs code RX1, involving crushing the entire sample (<7 kg) to at least 80% passing 2 mm, riffle splitting to obtain a 250 g sub-sample, and pulverizing (mild steel) to a minimum of 95% passing 105 µm. Actlabs code RX17 is also completed to determine pulp specific gravity. Crushing and pulverizing quality is monitored through Actlabs’ internal QAQC protocols.

Gold is analyzed by fire assay with an atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) finish (Actlabs code 1A2-50 ORE), in which a 50 g pulp is fused with fire assay fluxes, preheated at 850 °C, heated further at 950 °C, and finished at 1,060 °C over a 60-minute fusion cycle. The resulting lead button is cupelled at 950 °C to produce a doré bead containing Au and Ag, which is then dissolved in aqua regia and analyzed by AAS. This method has a detection range of 0.01 to 100 g/t Au.

Samples returning gold grades of ≥100 g/t Au are re-analyzed by fire assay with gravimetric finish (Actlabs code 1A3-50). In this process, gold is separated from silver in the doré bead by parting with nitric acid, and the gold residue is weighed gravimetrically on a microbalance. The 1A3-50 method has a detection range of 0.02 to 10,000 g/t Au.
