Talon Metals Receives USD$1 Million from Resource Capital Fund
Road Town, March 29, 2018 - Talon Metals Corp. (TSX: TLO) ("Talon" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an unsecured non-convertible promissory note in the amount of USD$1,000,000 (the "Promissory Note") with Resource Capital Fund VI LP ("RCF"). The Promissory Note matures on November 25, 2018 and carries an interest rate of 12% per annum. No finder's fees or other commissions or fees are payable in connection with the issuance of the Promissory Note. The proceeds of the Promissory Note will be used for general working capital purposes.
RCF is a "related party" of the Company pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101- Take Over bids and Special Transactions ("M1 61-101") and as such, entering into the Promissory Note is a "related party transaction" within the meaning of MI 61-101. The Company is not required to obtain a formal valuation in connection with the Promissory Note and in accordance with section 5.7(f) of MI 61-101, is not required to obtain minority shareholder approval prior to entering into the Promissory Note as the Promissory Note is non-convertible and is on reasonable commercial terms that are not less advantageous to the Company than if the Promissory Note was obtained from an arm's length provider.
The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before entering into the Promissory Note, as the details of the transaction were not finalized until immediately prior to the execution of the Promissory Note and the Company wished to close the transaction as soon as practicable for sound business reasons.
The TSX has accepted notice of the Promissory Note subject to certain standard conditions.

Forward-looking statements are subject to significant risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements, and even if such actual results are realized or substantially realized, there can be no assurance that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on the Company.
Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and, except as may be required by applicable securities laws, the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise.
