## Minestarters Atlas summary

Talon Metals reports new high-grade assay results from step-out drill hole 25TK0563B at its Tamarack Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project in Minnesota, intersecting 8.85 meters grading 9.60% Ni, 12.65% Cu, 0.09% Co, 11.44 g/t Pd+Pt, and 11.12 g/t Au. The results, including a sub-interval of 6.33 meters at 12.91% Ni and 16.55% Cu, confirm massive sulphide continuity and expand mineralization in the Vault Zone. Additional step-out holes 25TK0563C and 25TK0567 also intercepted mineralization with assays pending, further extending the known mineralized footprint.

Reasoning: New high-grade nickel-copper-PGE-gold intercept from step-out drilling confirms continuity and expands mineralization at depth within the Vault Zone. Detailed QA/QC and metal equivalent assumptions are disclosed, though true width is not yet known.

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: The drill intercept in 25TK0563B of 8.85 meters grading 9.60% Ni and 12.65% Cu, including a sub-interval of 6.33 meters at 12.91% Ni and 16.55% Cu, is exceptionally high-grade for nickel and copper, well above typical thresholds for magmatic sulphide deposits.

Evidence · text

> intercepted 8.85 meters of MSU starting at 774.40 meters, which assayed 9.60% Ni, 12.65% Cu

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Drill hole 25TK0563B was drilled 16 meters to the northwest of drill hole 25TK0563, and 25TK0563C was a 16-meter step-out to the southwest, indicating extension of mineralization beyond previously known limits.

Evidence · text

> Talon is pleased to report that drill hole 25TK0563B, drilled 16 meters to the northwest of drill hole 25TK0563

**QA/QC Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).

Why it applies: The release includes a detailed section on QA/QC protocols, mentioning certified reference materials, blanks, duplicate samples, and the use of ALS Minerals as an independent laboratory.

Evidence · text

> QUALITY ASSURANCE, QUALITY CONTROL AND QUALIFIED PERSONS The Talon sample preparation, security, and Quality Assurance \(" QA "\) / Quality Control \(" QC "\) protocols for the Tamarack Nickel-Copper Project are consistent with industry best practices

**QP/CP Signed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience.

Why it applies: Dr. Etienne Dinel, Vice President, Geology of Talon, is stated as a Qualified Person within the meaning of NI 43-101 and has reviewed, approved and verified the technical information.

Evidence · text

> Dr. Etienne Dinel, Vice President, Geology of Talon, is a Qualified Person within the meaning of NI 43-101. Dr. Dinel is satisfied that the analytical and testing procedures used are standard industry operating procedures and methodologies, and he has reviewed, approved and verified the technical information disclosed in this news release, including sampling, analytical and test data underlying the technical information.

**Metal Equivalent Opaque**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Metal equivalent grade reported without disclosing the price, recovery, or payability assumptions used. Requires an actual metal equivalent grade; a combined elemental basket such as PGE is not a metal equivalent.

Why it applies: The release provides detailed formulas for NiEq and CuEq, including specific metal prices and recoveries used in the calculation.

Evidence · text

> Where used in this news release: NiEq% = Ni% + Cu% x $4.00/$8.00 x Cu Recovery/Ni Recovery + Co% x $20.00/$8.00 x Co Recovery/Ni Recovery + Pt \[g/t\]/31.103 x $1,000/$8.00/22.04 x Pt Recovery/Ni Recovery + Pd \[g/t\]/31.103 x $1,000/$8.00/22.04 x Pd Recovery/Ni Recovery + Au \[g/t\]/31.103 x $2,000/$8.00/22.04 x Au Recovery/Ni Recovery + Ag \[g/t\]/31.103 x $20.00/$8.00/22.04 x Ag Recovery/Ni Recovery

**Apparent Width Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states that lengths are drill intersections and not necessarily true widths, and true width is unknown at the time of publication.

Evidence · text

> Length refers to drill hole length and not True Width. True Width is unknown at the time of publication.

#### Tags used in scoring

**QA/QC Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).

Why it applies: qaqc\_disclosed is true

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: proximity is offered as the value premise: "The Tamarack Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project comprises a large land position \(18km of strike length\) with additional high-g"

## How Atlas produces this analysis

Minestarters Atlas uses automated extraction to summarize mining announcements, identify reported measurements, and classify supporting evidence. Sentiment reflects the extracted narrative and classification rules; it is an interpretation, not a reported measurement. Evidence quotes and context are provided where available. Missing data, low-confidence results, and review flags indicate limitations. Check the original publisher announcement before relying on an interpretation.
