About Taranis and Thor
Taranis Resources Inc. is a Canadian mineral exploration company. The Thor Project is in southeast British Columbia. Taranis has completed upwards of 250 drill holes, linking all previously known mines into a single, near-surface epithermal deposit that has been recently updated into an NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate (see Taranis News Release dated April 11, 2024). In the summer of 2024, Taranis initiated deep drilling aimed at finding the source of the 2km long epithermal deposit. This exploration uses modern geological models and state-of-the-art exploration tools including airborne magnetotellurics, magnetics and drill hole alteration geochemistry. The Company's exploration approach in the Silver Cup Mining District is that historic mines in the area are potentially underlain by comparatively large mineral deposits that do not outcrop at surface.
