Aircore drilling commences at East Peak Hill gold
prospect, NSW
Maiden phase of drilling underway to assess prospective targets located adjacent to the Peak
Hill and Tomingley gold districts
Highlights:
Macquarie Projects, NSW
East Peak Hill
• 5,000m Aircore drilling program commences at Talisman’s East Peak Hill (EPH) Prospect.
• EPH sits adjacent to the 1.36M oz at 2.2g/t Au, Tomingley gold2
and Peak Hill gold district, currently
being mined by Alkane Resources (ASX: ALK).
• The AC drilling is designed to test a 6.0km long trend of interpreted intrusive rocks which lies within the
Junee-Narromine Volcanic Belt – host to several major gold and copper-gold deposits.
• An initial but limited Auger drilling and soil geochemical program conducted by Talisman in 2025
indicated anomalous pathfinder minerals with a similar geochemical signature to the Tomingley
Operations mineralisation.
• Targets include the north-south oriented edges of an interpreted andesitic intrusion.
Talisman Mining (ASX: TLM, ‘Talisman’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to advise that it has commenced a 5,000m
Aircore (AC) drilling program (Figure 1) at its East Peak Hill Project, located approximately 70km south-west of
Dubbo in NSW.
East Peak Hill Project (EL 9395) – Background
The East Peak Hill Project contains an interpreted andesitic intrusion outlined by anomalous magnetic features
interpreted from detailed magnetic imagery, as illustrated in Figure 3.
In 2025, Talisman commenced a limited Auger sampling program to test for pathfinder elements to the targeted
gold mineralisation. At the nearby 1.36M oz at 2.2g/t gold, Tomingley Project, owned by Alkane Resources1,2
,
pathfinder elements are used extensively in exploration to highlight prospective locations for gold
mineralisation.
The Talisman Auger drill program was partially successful. Many of the Auger holes failed to reach the basement
target due to deeper-than-expected barren transported cover. As summarised in Table 1 and illustrated in Figure
3, some of the Auger holes did reach the top of the underlying basement and recorded anomalous pathfinder
minerals – arsenic, antimony, bismuth, copper and molybdenum on both the western side and eastern side of
the interpreted intrusive rocks.
The AC drilling program which has just commenced is designed to test the width of the interpreted intrusive rock
target with broad, regional scale, 400m and 800m line spacing as an initial test of the target prospectivity.

AC Program details
The Aircore drill program will be completed in two parts due to access approval being granted at the current time
for approximately 60% of the target stratigraphy.
The current program consists of up to ten lines of AC drill fences to test the postulated north-south magnetic
feature and intersections of the feature with north-northeast trending structures which are seen as key to the
emplacement of gold mineralisation in the district. This work will be completed with Wallis Drilling’s Mantis100
rig as shown in Figure 1.
The program summary specifications are as follows
- E-W drill grid (orthogonal to stratigraphy & interpreted structure/mineralisation).
- Holes drilled to blade refusal (estimated 60-80m depth).
- Holes inclined at 60 degrees, drilled towards 270o
(grid west).
- Nominal 80m x 800m spaced grid initially with potential to in-fill to 400m spacing as results and
geology dictate, as shown on Figure 3.
- 3m composite samples with 50g fire assay for gold.
- Bottom-of-hole with selected multi-element assays.
- Barren surface cover is expected to average 10-12m down-hole.

Management Comment
Talisman’s Managing Director, Andrew Munckton, said:
“The Aircore drilling program we have just commenced is designed to target an interpreted andesitic intrusion
where limited soil geochemistry has defined anomalous pathfinder minerals at the edges of the interpreted
intrusive body. These intrusions and their sheared and faulted contacts with the surrounding rocks provide the
host to a number of significant gold deposits at the nearby Tomingley Gold Mine, operated by Alkane Resources.

Tomingley Gold Operations – Mineral Resource Statement 30 June 2025
“These broad 400m and 800m spaced lines of AC drilling will provide a regional-scale test of the target. Previous
Auger drilling by Talisman was partially successful at penetrating the barren cover that conceals the deposits of
the area. Where the Auger drilling was successful anomalous pathfinder minerals have been recorded, giving us
confidence that we are in the right environment for the style of orogenic gold mineralisation that we are targeting.
“The East Peak Hill Project has not been systematically tested by drilling and success in this AC program would
provide a strong indicator of the prospectivity of this extensive 10km-long target corridor.
“The initial drilling program is expected to take 3-5 weeks to complete with assays expected a further 2-4 weeks
following the completion of drilling.”

About Talisman Mining
Talisman Mining Limited (ASX: TLM) is an Australian mineral development and exploration company. The
Company’s aim is to maximise shareholder value through exploration, discovery and development of
complementary opportunities in base and precious metals.
Talisman has secured tenements in the Cobar/Mineral Hill region in Central NSW through the grant of its own
Exploration Licenses. The Cobar/Mineral Hill region is a richly mineralised district that hosts several base and
precious metal mines including the CSA, Tritton, and Hera/Nymagee mines. This region contains highly
prospective geology that has produced many long-life, high-grade mineral discoveries. Talisman has identified
several areas within its Lachlan Cu-Au Project tenements that show evidence of base and precious metals
endowment which have had very little modern systematic exploration completed to date.
Talisman also has a significant tenement holding in both the Molong and Junee-Narromine belts within the
Macquarie Arc geological domain. The Macquarie Arc hosts several of Australia’s largest gold and copper-gold
discoveries and operations including, Cadia Valley, North Parkes, Cowal and Tomingley. Talisman believes there
is significant potential for the discovery of substantial copper and gold mineralisation within this land package
and is undertaking active exploration to test a number of these targets.

Appendix 2
JORC Tables Section 1 & 2
Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections)
Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
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 3kg 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.
TLM Auger Drilling
• Auger samples are collected as one or two metre interval
from bottom of hole via a drill rig mounted Auger drill to
obtain Top of Basement sample
• The Top of Basement sample is sieved to 2mm to obtain a
nominal 1.0kg sample which was collected in a pre-
numbered sample bag.
• Auger samples undergo routine pXRF analysis using an
Olympus Vanta M-series to aid in logging and identifying
zones of interest.
• Sampling is controlled by Talisman protocols and QAQC
procedures as per industry standard and a chain of custody
maintained through transfer to ALS Laboratories in
Adelaide, SA.
• Auger samples were dried, crushed (where required), split
and pulverised (total prep) to produce a master pulp. From
this master pulp, a 0.25g sub sample was taken for multi-
element analysis by four acid digest with an ICP-MS finish.
A 50g sub sample was also taken for fire assay for gold
with ICP-AAS 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).
Auger drilling to between 2m and 15m to obtain the top of
Basement sample
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
TLM Auger Drilling
• Auger drill sample recovery is generally moderate to high
with sample recoveries and quality recorded in the
database by the Auger operator.
• Sample recoveries were monitored in real-time by the
presence of Talisman personnel at the drill site.
• No known relationship exists between recovery and grade.
• No known bias exists.

• QAQC protocols for all Auger sampling involved the use of
certified reference materials as assay standards, inserted
at a 1 in 25 sampling rate.
• Blank samples were inserted inserted immediately after
samples that were duplicated using a Certified Reference
Material (CRM) coarse blank.
• All assays are required to conform to the procedural
QAQC guidelines as well as routine laboratory QAQC
guidelines.
• All QAQC controls and measures were routinely reviewed.
• Laboratory checks (repeats) occurred at a frequency of 1
in 25. Field duplicates returned a reasonable level of
precision with some minor variation in Au attributed to
nugget effect of gold mineralisation.

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’).
• NA
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 scales 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.
• All relevant data is reported and provides an appropriate
representation of the 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
