Monty Drilling Update
Step out Diamond drill-holes intersect massive sulphide mineralisation in multiple zones
Talisman Mining Limited (ASX: TLM "Talisman") is pleased to announce that Sandfire Resources NL (ASX: SFR; "Sandfire") has provided an update on ongoing Diamond drilling being undertaken at the Monty copper-gold discovery within Talisman's Springfield Project located approximately 10km east of the DeGrussa Copper-Gold Mine (see Figure 1).
The Springfield Project is subject to an exploration farm -in joint venture between Sandfire and Talisman where Sandfire has the right to earn up to a 70% interest in Talisman's Doolgunna Projects by the expenditure of $15 million on exploration at the Projects.
Two Diamond step-out holes being drilled concurrently to test for mineralised extensions in the areas up-dip of known massive sulphide intersections have intersected multiple zones of massive sulphide mineralisation.
Diamond drill hole TLDD0009 has intersected two zones of mineralisation approximately
55 metres up-dip of the previously reported intersection in TLDD0005 (9.2m at 11.8% Cu and 2.9g/t Au from 417.0m) (see TLM ASX Release 21 July 2015):
7.5 metres of massive sulphides from 363.1m to 370.6m down-hole
(true width unknown at this time, top of intercept is 320 metres vertically below surface); and
3.1 metres of massive sulphides from 386.5m to 389.6m down-hole including
0.5m of laminated siltstone with disseminated chalcopyrite from 387.1m to 387.5m. (true width unknown at this time, top of intercept is 339 metres vertically below surface).
Diamond drill hole TLDD0010, another step-out hole currently being drilled to test the prospective horizon approximately 70 metres up-dip of TLDD0006, has intersected three zones of mineralisation including:
10.5 metres of massive sulphides from 359.6m to 370.1m down-hole
(true width unknown at this time, top of intercept is 314 metres vertically below surface);
1.6 metres of massive sulphides from 374.6m to 376.2m down-hole
(true width unknown at this time, top of intercept is 327 metres vertically below surface); and
0.6 metres of massive sulphides from 377.6m to 378.2m down-hole
(true width unknown at this time, top of intercept is 329 metres vertically below surface).
Based on field observations by Sandfire, the massive sulphides intersected in TLDD0009 and TLDD0010 contain visible chalcopyrite, as has been observed in previous drilling at Monty. Both holes will be dispatched for assaying when completed. See Figure 2 for location of TLDD0009 and TLDD0010 and relation to other massive sulphide intercepts .
Monty Drilling Update
Talisman is highly encouraged by these latest results which provide further support for the emerging potential at Monty. The latest intercepts, which are up -dip of mineralisation evidenced in TLDD0005 and the interpreted fault zone identified in TLDD0006, represent the potential to increase the footprint of known mineralisation at Monty. Talisman looks forward to assay results for TLDD0009 and TLDD010 and the outcome of additional Diamond drilling which will further develop the understanding of this excitin g discovery.
Sandfire have also advised that down-dip Diamond drill holes TLDD0008 and TLDD0011 have also been drilled to support 3D geological modelling of the Monty host horizon (see Figure 2 for location of TLDD008 and TLDD0011). Although these holes did not intersect significant massive sulphide mineralisation in positions down-dip of TLDD0006 and TLRC0004 respectively, they have demonstrated the continuity of the prospective sediment horizon.
TLDD0011 was drilled approximately 80 metres down-dip of the intersection in TLRC0004 (18.0m at 5.7% Cu and 2.4g/t Au from 107m and 4.0m @ 4.2% Cu and 0.7g/t Au from 158m) (see TLM ASX Release 13
August 2015). No mineralisation was seen in the down-dip position of this intersection. The hole continued
on and intersected a minor band of massive pyrite and chalcopyrite from 370.9m to 371.3m with semi - massive and disseminated pyrite from 372.2m to 373.6m. Sandfire have advised that the sediments contained in the footwall of TLDD0011 are indicative of a position distal to the main orebody, containing a package of haematitic magnetite-bearing chemogenic (exhalative) sediments.
TLDD0008, which was drilled approximately 80 metres down-dip of TLDD0006, intersected a minor interval of blebby sulphides from 549.2m to 550.6m in association with pervasively chlorite -altered sediments. Minor pyrite and chalcopyrite was present throughout the prospective sediment h orizon as fine disseminations, fine bands along bedding and partial clast replacements, which Sandfire have advised is indicative of a position peripheral to the main mineralisation.
Sandfire have informed Talisman that drilling is continuing at Monty with two Diamond rigs currently drilling holes designed to test for extensions of the mineralisation up -dip and down-dip and along strike. Additional down-hole electromagnetic (DHEM) surveys will be undertaken in the near future to help in advancing the understanding of the geological setting, orientation and scale of the mineralisation. An RC rig is being utilised to drill pre-collars for Diamond drilling.

Sampling techniques
|
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down-hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used.
Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report.
In cases where 'industry standard' work has been done this would be relatively simple (e.g. 'reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a
30 g charge for fire assay'). In other
cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems.
Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information.
|
The sampling method employed by Sandfire i s h a l f -core sampling of NQ2 core from Diamond drilling (DD)
Sandfire collect RC samples by cone splitter for single metre samples or a sampling spear for first pass composite samples using a face sampling hammer with a nominal hole diameter of 140mm
Sampling is guided by Sandfire protocols as per industry standard.
Diamond drill core sample size reduction is through a Jaques jaw crusher to -10mm and all samples are Boyd crushed to -4mm.Representitive sub samples are split and pulverised via an LM5 mill.
RC samples are crushed to -4mm through a Boyd
crusher and representative sub samples are split and pulverised through an LM5 mill.
Pulverising is to nominal 90% passing -75µm and is checked using wet sieving technique.
Samples are assayed using Mixed 4 Acid Digest (MAD) 0.3g charge and MAD Hotbox 0.15g charge methods with ICPOES or ICPMS.
Fire Assay is completed by firing 40g portion of the sample with ICPMS finish.
|
Drilling techniques
|
Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (e.g. core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of Diamond tails, face- sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc).
|
Sandfire Diamond drilling is completed using NQ2 size coring equipment.
RC drilling is with a face sampling hammer of a nominal 140mm hole diameter.
All drill collars are surveyed using RTK GPS.
All core, where possible is oriented using a Reflex
ACT II RD orientation tool.
Downhole surveying is undertaken using a gyroscopic survey instrument.

Monty Drilling Update
Drill sample recovery
|
Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed.
Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples.
Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.
|
Sandfire Diamond core recovery is logged and captured into the database. Core recoveries are measured by drillers for every drill run. The core length recovered is physically measured for each run and recorded and used to calculate the core recovery as a percentage of core recovered.
Appropriate measures are taken to maximise
sample recovery and ensure the representative nature of the samples. This includes Diamond core being reconstructed into continuous intervals on angle iron racks for orientation, metre marking and reconciled against core block markers.
RC sample recovery is good with almost no wet sampling in the project area
Samples are routinely weighed and the information captured into the central secured database.
No sample recovery issues have impacted on potential sample bias
|
Logging
|
Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies.
Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography.
The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged.
|
Sandfire Geological logging is completed for all
holes and is representative across the orebody. The lithology, alteration and structural characteristics of core are logged directly to a digital format following procedures, and using Sandfire NL geologic codes. Data is imported into Sandfire NL's central database after validation in LogChief™.
Logging is both qualitative and quantitative depending on field being logged.
All cores are photographed.
All drill holes are fully logged.
|
Sub- sampling techniques and
sample preparation
|
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken.
If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry.
For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique.
Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples.
Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in situ material collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second-half sampling.
Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled.
|
Sandfire complete Diamond core orientation where possible and all core is marked prior to sampling. Half core samples are produced using an Almonte Core Saw. Samples are weighed and recorded.
RC samples are split using a cone or riffle splitter.
The majority of samples collected are dry. On occasion that wet samples are encountered they are dried prior to splitting with a riffle splitter.
All samples are sorted, dried at 80° for up to 24 hours and weighed. Samples are then crushed through a Jaques crusher to nominal -10mm. A second stage crushing is through a Boyd crusher to nominal -4mm.
Sample splits are weighed at a frequency of 1:20 and entered into the job results file. Pulverising is completed using LM5 mill to 90% passing 75%µm using wet sieving technique.
1:20 grind quality checks are completed for 90% passing 75%µm criteria to ensure representativeness of sub-samples.

Monty Drilling Update
Sub- sampling techniques and
sample preparation (Continued)
|
|
Sampling is carried out in accordance with Sandfire
protocols as per industry best practice.
No field duplicates have been taken.
The sample sizes are considered appropriate for
VHMS and Gold mineralisation types.
|
Quality of assay data and laboratory tests
|
The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered partial or total.
For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in determining the analysis including instrument make and model, reading times, calibrations factors applied and their derivation, etc.
Nature of quality control procedures adopted (e.g. standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (i.e. lack of bias) and precision have been established.
|
Samples are assayed using Mixed 4 Acid Digest
(MAD) 0.3g charge and MAD Hotbox 0.15g charge methods with ICPOES or ICPMS. The samples are digested and refluxed with a mixture of acids including Hydrofluoric, Nitric, Hydrochloric and Perchloric acids and analysis conducted for multi elements including Cu, Pb, Zn, Ag, As, Fe, S, Sb, Bi, Mo, Re, Mn, Co, Cd, Cr, Ni, Se, Te, Ti, Zr, V, Sn, W and Ba. The MAD Hotbox method is an extended digest method that approaches a total digest for many elements however some refractory minerals are not completely attacked. The
elements S, Cu, Zn, Co, Fe, Ca, Mg, Mn, Ni, Cr, Ti, K, Na, V are determined by ICPOES, and Ag, Pb, As, Sb, Bi, Cd, Se, Te, Mo, Re, Zr, Ba, Sn, W are determined by ICPMS. Samples are analysed for Au, Pd and Pt by firing a 40g of sample with ICP AES/MS finish. Lower sample weights are employed where samples have very high S contents. This is a classical FA process and results in total separation of Au, Pt and Pd in the samples.
The analytical methods are considered appropriate
for this mineralisation styles.
No geophysical tools are used in the analysis.
Sandfire DeGrussa QAQC protocol is considered industry standard with standard reference material (SRM) submitted on regular basis with routine samples. SRMs and blanks are inserted at a minimum of 5% frequency rate.

and assaying
|
The verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative company personnel.
The use of twinned holes.
Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures, data verification, data storage (physical and electronic) protocols.
Discuss any adjustment to assay data.
|
Significant intersections have been verified by
alternate Sandfire personnel.
No twinned holes have been drilled as part of this programme.
Primary data is captured on field Toughbook laptops using Logchief™ Software. The software has validation routines and data is then imported into a secure central database.
The primary data is always kept and is never replaced by adjusted or interpreted data.

Monty Drilling Update
Location of data points
|
Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes (collar and down- hole surveys), trenches, mine workings and other locations used in Mineral Resource estimation.
Specification of the grid system used.
Quality and adequacy of topographic control.
|
The Sandfire Survey team undertakes survey
works under the guidelines of best industry practice.
All drill collars are accurately surveyed using RTK
GPS system within +/-50mm of accuracy (X, Y, Z).
Coordinates are based on control previously established by MHR Surveyors which was derived by ties into the Government SSM/BM network.
Downhole surveys are completed by gyroscopic downhole methods at regular intervals.
Coordinate and azimuth are reported in MGA 94 Zone
50.
Topographic control was established from LiDar laser imagery technology
|
Data spacing and distribution
|
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration
Results.
Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s)
and classifications applied.
Whether sample compositing has been applied.
|
Exploration drilling at Monty is preliminary and
spacing and distribution of exploration results is not sufficient to support Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves.
No sample compositing has been applied to these exploration results.
|
Orientation of data in relation to geological structure
|
Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased sampling of possible structures and the extent to which this is known, considering the deposit type.
If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the orientation of key mineralised structures is considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this should be assessed and reported if material.
|
No significant orientation based sampling bias is
known at this time.
The drill holes may not necessarily be perpendicular to the orientation of the intersected mineralisation. All reported intervals are downhole intervals, not true widths.
|
Sample security
|
The measures taken to ensure sample security.
|
Sandfire ensures appropriate security measures
are taken to dispatch samples to the laboratory. Chain of custody of samples is being managed by Sandfire Resources NL. Samples are stored onsite and transported to laboratory by a licence transport company in sealed bulka bags. The laboratory receipts received samples against the sample dispatch documents and issues a reconciliation report for every sample batch.
|
Audits or reviews
|
The results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data.

Drill hole
Information
|
A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes:
o easting and northing of the drill hole collar
o elevation or RL (Reduced Level - elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar
o dip and azimuth of the hole
o down hole length and interception depth
o hole length.
If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case.
|
Refer to Table 1 of this document - Drillhole
Information Summary, Springfield Project.
|
Data aggregation methods
|
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g. cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail.
The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated.
|
Significant intersections are based on greater than
0.5% Cu and may include up to a maximum of
3.0m of internal dilution, with a minimum composite grade of 1.0% Cu.
Cu grades used for calculating significant
intersections are uncut.
Minimum and maximum Diamond core sample intervals used for intersection calculation are 0.3m and 1.2m respectively subject to location of geological boundaries.
Reported intersections from RC drilling are based on regular 1 metre sample intervals.
No metal equivalents are used in the intersection calculation.
Where core loss occurs; the average length- weighted grade of the two adjacent samples are attributed to the interval for the purpose of calculating the intersection. The maximum interval of missing core which can be incorporated with the reported intersection is 1m.

Monty Drilling Update
Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths
|
These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results.
If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill-hole angle is known, its nature should be reported.
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (e.g.
'down hole length, true width not known').
|
Downhole intercepts of mineralisation reported in
this release are from a drill hole orientated perpendicular to a modelled EM plate. The drill hole may not necessarily be perpendicular to the
mineralised zone. All widths reported are downhole intervals.
The geometry of the mineralisation, relative to the
drill hole, is unknown at this stage.
All intersections reported in this release are downhole intervals. True widths are not known.
|
Diagrams
|
Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views.
|
Appropriate maps with scale are included within the body of the accompanying document.
|
Balanced reporting
|
Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results.
|
The accompanying document is considered to represent a balanced report.
|
Other substantive exploration data
|
Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples - size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results;
bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances.
|
Other exploration data collected is not considered as material to this document at this stage. Further data collection will be reviewed and reported when considered material.
|
Further work
|
The nature and scale of planned further work (e.g. tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step- out drilling).
Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive.
|
Sandfire advise that step-out drilling for along strike and dip extensions of mineralisation continue on
160m x 80m x 80m nominal grid pattern subject to geological control
