(together with its subsidiaries, “Talon” or the “Company”) (TSX:TLO/OTC:TLOFF) is pleased to announce the completion of its previously announced transaction with Lundin Mining Corporation (“Lundin Mining”) (TSX: LUN; Nasdaq Stockholm: LUMI) pursuant to which it acquired the producing Eagle Mine and associated Humboldt Mill (the “Transaction”). On closing of the Transaction, Lundin Mining was issued 275,152,232 common shares (“Talon Shares”) and granted a production payment royalty on ore from sources other than the Eagle Mine that is processed through the Humboldt Mill at a rate of US$1.00 per tonne, up to a maximum aggregate payment of US$20.0 million (representing 20 million tonnes of ore).

“The completion of the Eagle Mine and Humboldt Mill acquisition is a defining moment for Talon. I am pleased to welcome Darby Stacey as Chief Executive Officer, along with the Eagle and Humboldt mining and processing team, to Talon. This transaction has brought together the positive cash-flow-generating Eagle Mine and Humboldt Mill, the proven operating experience of the Eagle and Humboldt teams, and Talon’s in-house exploration, environmental and permitting capabilities to create the only operating primary nickel-copper company in the United States with meaningful expansion potential. With the transaction now complete, our combined team is positioned to advance our four strategic priorities in parallel - materially extending the Eagle Mine life, accelerating exploration in Michigan and Minnesota, advancing permitting at the Tamarack Nickel-Copper Project and the Beulah Battery Minerals Processing Facility, and progressing engineering toward feasibility study and construction - at a time when it is vitally important to drive decisively toward U.S. critical minerals self-sufficiency”, said Henri van Rooyen, Executive Chairman of Talon.
