TORONTO, Sept. 13, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As announced in July, Talmora Diamond Inc. (CSE-TAI) (“Talmora”) signed an Option Agreement granting Olivut Resources Ltd. (“Olivut”) the right to earn a 50% interest in part of Talmora’s Horton Project, namely the Seahorse Project, located in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region of Canada’s Northwest Territories, by spending $1,200,000 over two years and making a $200,000 payment to Talmora.
During August, Olivut, as the operator, mobilized crews and equipment to initiate a detailed airborne geophysical survey program on the Seahorse Project. To date, unseasonable, extremely poor weather conditions continue to severely hamper field progress with the helimag survey since flying is not possible. Reconnaissance work to assist with the planned drill program has been carried out. If these adverse weather conditions persist, the work that cannot be completed this season will be rescheduled to be conducted during the spring when crews can benefit from lengthening daylight hours and hopefully, more stable air masses. The project must be supplied by small aircraft and helicopter.
The Seahorse Project includes magnetic targets previously sampled by Talmora and a newly acquired Prospecting Permit covering a large magnetic anomaly at the focus of a kimberlite indicator mineral and ICP pathfinder element train recently identified in government assessment report records.
Talmora will retain a 100% interest and will independently explore two adjoining Prospecting Permits and a number of claims on which very little work has been done.

Davies, P.Eng., P.G., who is the Vice-President of Exploration for Talmora Diamond Inc., a "qualified person" as defined by National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
