Talon Metals said it has successfully intercepted new high-grade nickel-copper mineralization at its Tamarack project in Minnesota, nearly 3.2 kilometers outside of the current nickel-copper resource area.
The base metals company said the high-grade nickel mineralization will be called the ‘Raptor Zone’, with its exploration team intersecting high-grade nickel in first six out of nine holes, and Talon believes it has confirmed a brand new ‘system’ of high-grade nickel-copper mineralization within the Tamarack Intrusive Complex.
“New drilling shows us that the Tamarack Intrusive Complex can be a district-scale nickel-copper resource right here in the United States,” Talon Metals Chief Exploration and Operations Officer Brian Goldner said in a statement.
“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 added.
“The prospect that the United States may host more high-grade nickel mineralization within its domestic mineral endowment is very timely. In the last year, more than $30 billion in investment has been committed for new nickel battery manufacturing in the U.S.,” Talon Metals Chief External Affairs Officer and Head of Climate Strategy Todd Malan said in a statement.
“We have more exploration drilling to undertake with our in-house team to understand if these new areas have a resource that is of the size and quality to represent an economic and mineable resource, but these results show where we need to target our drilling teams,” added Malan.
