TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / May 11, 2021 / Tartisan Nickel Corp. (CSE:TN)(OTC PINK:TTSRF)(FSE:A2D) ("Tartisan", or the "Company") is pleased to announce that a Technical NI 43-101 Report was prepared for Tartisan Nickel Corp. by SMX International Corporation (SMX), Sean C. Muller, P.Geo. and John Rae, P.Geo. principal authors, as an update to work previously done by Chemrox Technologies LLC from 2008-2010. The Sill Lake Property as described in the NI43-101 Technical Report and dated May 09, 2021 was visited by John Rae, P.Geo. in December 2020. There has been no new field work done excepting site examination and an SMX drone flight to observe any physical changes on the site since 2010. The NI43-101 Report is essentially the validation and reinterpretation of the work previously done by Chemrox Technologies LLC, documentation of the current claims package held by Tartisan, plus an examination of an airborne spectrographic report prepared by Steele and Associates. Detailed geological interpretations and modelling sources of resources are limited solely from the work done by Chemrox Technologies LLC. Chemrox Technologies LLC is the predecessor company of SMX International Corporation, so the principal Qualified Persons of both reports are the same. The NI43-101 Technical Report will be filed on Sedar.
The Sill Lake Lead-Silver property consists of 47 unpatented mining claims in Van Koughnet Township, about 30 kms north of Sault Saint Marie, Ontario. The Property is approximately 933.57 hectares. SMX validated the model and resource numbers generated by Chemrox Technologies
LLC, and updated the market values in USD for the respective commodity prices as follows:
