Haywood Securities Analyst Stefan Ioannou that Talon Metals Corp. (TLO) is one of three very good high-grade nickel explorers. Through Talon’s JV with Rio Tinto plc (RIO), the company has a project in Minnesota called Tamarack, where they are drilling a high-grade deposit.
“It is shaped like a tadpole, and all the drilling right now is focused on the high-grade tail,” Ioannou says. “But there is the large head of the tadpole that hasn’t been tested yet. I think that’s why Rio Tinto is interested in it.”

Even if the head doesn’t work out, Ioannou says the tail on its own has already demonstrated grade and size potential that’s significant enough to attract a small- to mid-tier producer.
“If the head of the tadpole works out, we are talking about something like a Voisey’s Bay-type target,” Ioannou says.
