Talisker Resources Ltd. (“Talisker” or the “Company”) (TSX: TSK, OTCQX: TSKFF) is pleased to report on the advancement of ongoing operational activities at the Company’s 100% owned flagship Bralorne Gold Project located in British Columbia.
The 2025 Mustang Mine Plan has been completed and reviewed with the relevant inspectors from the British Columbia Ministry of Mines and Critical Minerals. The final mine plan will be submitted 10 days before the start of mining operations pursuant to regulatory requirements. Geotechnical mapping of the Mustang decline and historic 980 level was conducted during November and December with submission of the Ground Control Management Plan expected by the end of January. A ventilation audit was also conducted in December and the Mustang Ventilation Plan is expected to be completed by mid-January. Mobilization of the Mining Contractor (as defined below) is underway and is expected to be completed towards the end of January.
February will see pre-construction activities occurring at the portal, including additions to the workshop and storage units, the re-establishment of services (compressed air, water and power), some ground support rehabilitation, and installation of ventilation and safety infrastructure. Training of mine rescue personnel will also take place in February. Development is expected to begin in March at an advance rate of 6 metres per day on the Mustang 1060 Level, to complete the undercut of the first long hole mining stope, and on the 1075L, to access and complete the overcut of first stope and future mining zones. Development is planned to continue at 6 metres per day until August when it is planned to increase to 12 metres per day. Drilling and blasting of the first long hole stope is expected to take place in May with remaining production from development. Development will be undertaken on the Alhambra, BK and BK9870 veins.
Terry Harbort, CEO of Talisker stated, “The onsite team has done a great job in preparing all of the necessary requirements to restart mining activities at the Bralorne Gold Project. We look forward to providing updates as we progress development activities.”
