Talmora Diamond Announces Closing of $100,493 Private Placement

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - March 21, 2014) - Talmora Diamond Inc. (CSE:TAI) is pleased to announce the closing of a non-brokered private placement of 3,307,333 Units, comprised of 3,180,053 Hard Dollar Units at $0.03 per unit and 127,280 Flow-Through Units at $0.04 per Unit, for gross proceeds of $100,493.

Each Unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each common share purchase warrant ("Warrant") entitles the holder to acquire one common share for $0.05 until March 21, 2015. If after four months and one day following the closing date the common shares of Talmora trade at or above Can. $0.10 for a period of 20 consecutive trading days, the Company may notify the warrant holder to exercise the Warrants at a date no later than 30 calendar days after this notification date or forfeit any unexercised Warrants at that time. All securities issued pursuant to the financing are subject to a four month hold period which expires on July 21, 2014.

The Company now has 60,948,801 common shares outstanding. On a fully-diluted basis after giving effect to the exercise of all outstanding share purchase warrants and incentive stock options granted under its stock option plan the Company would have 72,027,923 common shares outstanding.

The proceeds of the financing will be applied to exploration expenses related to the Company's property in the Northwest Territories and to the administration of the Company as a going concern. The Company is now focused on funding of a major drill program to test the Company's many kimberlite targets. Work done in 2012-13 was most encouraging and should facilitate the financing of a drill program as the market improves.

Pricing of the units below $0.05 was permitted for a limited period because of weak market conditions.

Project Summary

Talmora holds 211 mineral claims (68,784 acres) straddling the 68^th parallel on the east side of the Lena West diamond area of the Northwest Territories. Most of the claims are in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region with the remainder in the Sahtu Settlemment Region.

Over $75 million has been spent in the Lena West area by other companies with the recovery of numerous kimberlite indicator minerals (KIMs) and an unprecedented 18 diamonds in field samples. No kimberlites have been found except for the Darnley Bay and the Dharma kimberlites on a well-defined favourable structure that includes the Talmora property.

Sampling on the Talmora property shows a strong correlation between KIMs in till samples and magnetic anomalies with characteristics of kimberlite pipes. The majority of Lena West KIMs (those west of Talmora) are very similar to those from the Talmora property but differ from those of the Darnley Bay and Dharma properties. There is every reason to believe that the Talmora property may be the source of the abundant KIMs and diamonds of the Lena West area.

The 2012 field program included the use of a small Packsack drill which in 3 holes penetrated the glacial till and ended in clay. The clay has characteristics of weathered kimberlite and 14 anomalous spinel grains from one hole lie on a relatively narrow crystallization trend line indicating a single population with a nearby source. The same hole contained 1 picro-ilmenite and 12 Mn-ilmenites (or altered Mn-ilmenites) including 6 with diamond inclusion compositions.

The Talmora property must now be tested with a proper drill in order to obtain fresh kimberlite for microdiamond analysis.
