Taranis Acquires Riikonkoski Copper-Gold Deposit in Finland
Lakewood, Colorado, October 22nd, 2014 - Taranis Resources Inc. ("Taranis") [TSX.V: TRO] is pleased to announce that i
--->t has been granted the Riikonkoski 1-7 Exploration Licenses that cover the Historic Riikonkoski Copper-gold deposit th
--->at was extensively explored by the Geological Survey of Finland ("GTK") in the early 1970's. The deposit is now owned
--->100% by Taranis.
The table below summarizes the Historic Resource at Riikonkoski, but does not include any gold content that was system
--->atically analyzed by Taranis.

The deposit was discovered and explored in the 1960's and 70's by the GTK as potential feed for the Outokumpu Mine in
--->southeast Finland when copper was trading at US$0.59/lb, and the Outokumpu deposit was almost exhausted. Unfortunately
--->, only grades in excess of 3% copper were economic at the time, and exploration was not continued at Riikonkoski. Adva
--->nces in mining, particularly block panel caving and higher copper prices make Riikonkoski very attractive, not to ment
--->ion its proximity (6.5 km to the southeast) to Naakenavaara that lies in the same geological formation. 16,326 meters
--->in 72 holes were completed by the GTK (1970 to 1974) and identified four bodies of copper and gold mineralization, NI
--->43-101 spacing compliant. These bodies are hosted by altered sediments and tuffaceous rocks very similar to Naakenavaa
--->ra. The presence of gold at Riikonkoski was not investigated by the previous operator, although selected sampling of o
--->nly 2% of the core by the GTK did yield values greater than two grams gold/tonne, the best interval being 2.13 meters
--->grading 10.97 grams gold/tonne.
John Gardiner, President and CEO of Taranis states "The addition of Riikonkoski to the existing Naakenavaara and Kettu
--->kuusikko projects now consolidates three large copper and gold Resources in the area around Kittila, Finland. With the
---> addition of Riikonkoski, Taranis is planning to Joint Venture or sell the properties outright to an experienced, capa
--->ble operator and feels they have the ability to develop into a major copper-gold mining district".
