Bravo Intersects Exceptional Thickness of High-Grade PGMs at Luanga

Highlights include 58.8m @ 2.11g/t PGM+Au, and 19.8m @ 2.68g/t PGM+Au

VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 2, 2022 /CNW/ – Bravo Mining Corp. (TSXV: BRVO) (OTCQX: BRVMF), (“Bravo” or the “Company“) today announced that it has received assay results from an additional nine infill diamond drill holes (“DDH”) from its Luanga palladium + platinum + rhodium + gold + nickel (3PGM+Au+Ni) project (“Luanga” or “Luanga PGM+Au+Ni“), located in the Carajás Mineral Province, state of Pará, Brazil.

“Drill hole DDH22LU029, which intersected 58.8m @ 2.11g/t 3PGM+Au from 9.7m, is one of the broadest zones of 3PGM+Au mineralization intersected at Luanga to date. This drill hole also demonstrates that multiple stacked 3PGM+Au+Ni zones exist stratigraphically above (see section attached) and below the previously defined mineralized horizons. This increases our confidence in both the overall 3PGM+Au+Ni potential of Luanga, and the potential for higher-grade nickel sulphide mineralization given the 39.4m @ 0.16% Ni intersected from 29.1m,” said Luis Azevedo, Chairman and CEO of Bravo. “Furthermore, DDH22LU029 intersected a zone of nickel-rich disseminated sulphides below the main mineralized horizons (see section attached), yet still within the same orthopyroxenite host stratigraphy, again opening the possibility for new as yet unseen styles of nickel sulphide mineralization at depth.”

Highlights

  • The infill drilling campaign continues to advance rapidly, while results compare well with, or exceed, the intercepts in historic drill holes on nearby drill sections, in both tenor and mineralized thicknesses.
  • Highlights of Bravo’s recent intercepts are tabulated below, with details attached:

  • In addition, two diamond drill holes were completed on two drill sections, 50m north and south of DDH22LU047, the hole that intercepted massive sulphides (see August 16th, 2022 news release). All four step out drill holes have intersected varying amounts of semi-massive sulphides. Assay results are pending.
  • Downhole Electromagnetic surveys (“EM”) on these 4 drill holes, and surface fixed loop EM over the Luanga deposit, have commenced.
  • 102 drill holes have been completed, for a total of 17,337 metres (or 68% of Phase 1 Drilling Program), including 6 twin holes and 6 metallurgical holes.
  • 17,689 samples submitted for assay to date including 3,216 re-assay samples from historic drill core.
  • 6 drill rigs operating onsite.

Luanga Drill Program

The Phase 1 diamond drill program continues as planned at Luanga. Six drill rigs are on site, with drilling progressing in various locations along the entire 8.1km strike length of the known Luanga mineralized envelope. To date, 102 drill holes have been completed, for a total of 17,337 metres (or 68%) of the planned 25,500 metre Phase 1 drill program.

Schedule 2: Assay Methodologies and QAQC

Samples follow a chain of custody between collection, processing and delivery to the ALS laboratory in Parauapebas, state of Pará, Brazil. The drill core is delivered to the core shack at Bravo’s Luanga site facilities and processed by geologists who insert certified reference materials, blanks and duplicates into the sampling sequence. Drill core is half cut and placed in secured polyurethane bags, then in security-sealed sacks before being delivered directly from the Luanga site facilities to the Parauapebas ALS laboratory by Bravo staff. Additional information about the methodology can be found on the ALS global website (ALS) in the analytical guides.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control (“QAQC“) is maintained internally at the lab through rigorous use of internal certified reference materials, blanks, and duplicates. An additional QAQC program is administered by Bravo using certified reference materials, duplicate samples and blank samples that are blindly inserted into the sample batch. If a QAQC sample returns an unacceptable value an investigation into the results is triggered and when deemed necessary, the samples that were tested in the batch with the failed QAQC sample are re-tested.

Collective Mining Provides a Drilling Update at Apollo

TORONTO, Nov. 1, 2022 /CNW/ – Collective Mining Ltd. (TSXV: CNL) (OTCQX: CNLMF) (“Collective” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide the following drilling update following the recent closing of its successful $10.7 million bought deal equity financing. The Company is currently advancing on schedule and on budget with its 20,000-metre drill program for 2022.

The Guayabales project is located in the mining-friendly department of Caldas, in the heart of a long-established mining camp with ten fully permitted and operating mines located within three kilometres of the project. As a result, the Guayabales project is blessed with excellent infrastructure with roads and hydroelectric powerlines traversing the project and an abundant labor force located nearby in the townships of Supia and Marmato.

The Company’s Main Breccia discovery at the Apollo target (“Apollo”) has been the primary focus of the current drill program with the discovery hole being announced in June 2022. The Main Breccia discovery is a high-grade and bulk tonnage, copper-silver-gold porphyry-related breccia system characterized by two main yet distinct pulses of mineralized fluids flooding the breccia with metals. The first fluid pulse comes from the porphyry phase of the system and is responsible for impregnating the breccia matrix with most of the copper mineralization as well as some of the silver and gold mineralization. The second fluid pulse comes from the late-stage porphyry related carbonate base metal veins which overprint the breccia and flood the breccia matrix in places with an abundance of silver and gold mineralization and to a lesser extent zinc, lead, and copper mineralization.

There are three drill rigs presently operating at Apollo and to date the Company has completed a total of 25 diamond drill holes with assay results already reported from the first 14 holes. Assay results from holes APC-15 to APC-25 are currently outstanding and are expected to be received throughout the balance of 2022. Also, coring is underway for holes APC-26 and APC-27 with drill hole APC-28 expected to start in the near term. Previously announced intercepts into the Main Breccia discovery at Apollo include:

Silver Bullet Mines Update

Burlington, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – October 28, 2022) – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) on October 21, 2022 announced a financing of Units (the “Financing”), whereby each Unit consisted of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each Unit is priced at $0.20 (twenty cents). Each common share purchase warrant has a 2-year term and is exercisable at $0.30 (thirty cents). SBMI announces the Financing has received conditional stock exchange approval. The Financing will close in tranches as funds are received.

A trading blackout on all Company directors, management and consultants was imposed by the Chair of the board, and such blackout continues. This was because the Company has been provided with a steady stream of data and opinions from third parties with respect to adding a further processing facility to the existing mill in Arizona to be able to extract the recently discovered palladium, platinum, rhodium, osmium and high-grade gold, and at this time the Company is unable to determine which facts are material and which are not. This determination can only be made in the fullness of time as further facts are determined. The trading blackout is the most conservative approach to protecting the integrity of the markets and the reputations of the insiders.

During this period the Company has been working with its auditors in the normal course to prepare the Company’s audited financial statements and MDA for the year ending June 30, 2022 (the “Filings”). The likely imminent determination of which facts are material may impact the subsequent event notes for the Filings. Further, the Company has encountered procedural challenges in completing its first audit as an operating company, including but not limited to cross-border documentation. Some of these challenges were caused by COVID-19 restrictions on travel to the mill and mine sites in Arizona, others by a local lack of familiarity with audit processes. Management sees these challenges as transitory and procedural. There are no items in disagreement, whether material or not, between the auditors and the Company.

As a result, it is likely the Filings will not be filed on Friday, October 28th, 2022. The effect of this will likely be a management cease trade order, which is the same in substance as the blackout already imposed by the Chair. There is no impact upon any shareholder apart from directors, management and consultants. The Company anticipates being able to file the Filings very soon thereafter as the procedural challenges are remedied.

The Company waited as long as possible to disseminate this press release, to obtain as current input as possible from the auditors and the Company’s audit committee as to timing to effect the Filings.

Diamcor Reports Fiscal Second Quarter 2022 Results

Diamcor Mining, Proven and Probable

Continued Growth and Larger Diamonds result in Net Income of $1,016,568

KELOWNA, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 26, 2022 / Diamcor Mining Inc. (TSXV.DMI)(OTCQB:DMIFF)(FRA:DC3A), (“Diamcor” or, the “Company”) today reported its quarterly financial statements and related management discussion and analysis for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Highlights

  1. Operating results improved quarter over quarter with the tender and sale of 3,776.33 carats of rough diamonds for the interim period ended September 30, 2022 (3,061.70 – June 30, 2022), generating increased revenue of (USD) $2,099,951.32 ($557,559.22 – June 30, 2022), resulting in an average price of (USD) $556.08 per carat ($182.11 – June 30, 2022).
  2. The Company recorded a net income of $1,016,568 for the interim period ended September 30, 2022, as compared to a net loss of $918,953 in the previous interim period ended June 30, 2022
  3. The above total revenue and average price per carat was positively affected by the sale of a 59.35 carat gem quality special rough diamond.
  4. The Company’s focus during the period continued to be on managing costs and remaining supply chain delays, the optimization of operational hours to minimize the effects of national load-shedding in South Africa by the state-run national power supplier (Eskom), and continued refinements to processing plants and equipment aimed at sustaining increased processing volumes for the long-term.

“We are very pleased with the continued quarterly growth achieved again for the period ending September 30, 2022, and remain optimistic given the recent announcement of the delivery of 5,833 carats for the first tender and sale of this quarter” stated Mr. Dean Taylor, Diamcor CEO.

The Company’s recently filed financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, and accompanying management discussion and analysis can be viewed by interested parties on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

About Diamcor Mining Inc.
Diamcor Mining Inc. is a fully reporting publicly traded junior diamond mining company which is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol V.DMI, the OTCQB International under the symbol DMIFF, and on the Frankfurt Exchange under the symbol DC3A. The Company has a well-established operation in South Africa with a proven history of supplying rough diamonds to the world market. Diamcor has established a long-term strategic alliance with world famous luxury retailer Tiffany & Co. and is now in the final stages of developing the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project co-located with De Beer’s flagship Venetia mine.

About the Tiffany & Co. Alliance
The Company has established a long-term strategic alliance and first right of refusal with Tiffany & Co. Canada, a subsidiary of world famous New York based Tiffany & Co., to purchase up to 100% of the future production of rough diamonds from the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project at then current prices to be determined by the parties on an ongoing basis. In conjunction with this first right of refusal, Tiffany & Co. Canada also provided the Company with financing to advance the Project. Tiffany & Co. is owned by Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE (LVMH), a publicly traded company which is listed on the Paris Stock Exchange (Euronext) under the symbol LVMH and on the OTC under the symbol LVMHF. For additional information on Tiffany & Co., please visit their website at www.tiffany.com.

About Krone-Endora at Venetia
In February 2011, Diamcor acquired the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project from De Beers Consolidated Mines Limited, consisting of the prospecting rights over the farms Krone 104 and Endora 66, which represent a combined surface area of approximately 5,888 hectares directly adjacent to De Beers’ flagship Venetia Diamond Mine in South Africa. On September 11, 2014, the Company announced that the South African Department of Mineral Resources had granted a Mining Right for the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project encompassing 657.71 hectares of the Project’s total area of 5,888 hectares. The Company has also submitted an application for a mining right over the remaining areas of the Project. The deposits which occur on the properties of Krone and Endora have been identified as a higher-grade “Alluvial” basal deposit which is covered by a lower-grade upper “Eluvial” deposit. The deposits are proposed to be the result of the direct-shift (in respect to the “Eluvial” deposit) and erosion (in respect to the “Alluvial” deposit) of material from the higher grounds of the adjacent Venetia Kimberlite areas. The deposits on Krone-Endora occur in two layers with a maximum total depth of approximately 15.0 metres from surface to bedrock, allowing for a very low-cost mining operation to be employed with the potential for near-term diamond production from a known high-quality source. Krone-Endora also benefits from the significant development of infrastructure and services already in place due to its location directly adjacent to the Venetia Mine.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 25, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Silver Hammer Mining Corp. (CSE: HAMR; OTCQB: HAMRF) (the “Company” or “Silver Hammer”) is pleased to report that soil sampling results at the Eliza Project (“Eliza” or the “Project”) have defined significant anomalies that extend well beyond the small historical mine areas.

A total of 518 soil samples were collected from the northern area of Eliza with results ranging from below detection limit to 26.95 grams per tonne (“g/t”) silver (“Ag”). Thirty-nine samples returned grades higher than 1 g/t silver. Results with over 0.5 g/t Ag are highly anomalous and can be considered a tracer of potential larger systems. The purpose of the soil sampling program was to further define the extent of mineralization within the northern area and examine any geochemical patterns that may exist. The soil sampling program has outlined four distinct target areas, which are now being further evaluated. The historic mining areas include the California, Passynak and Belmont mines; a new fourth area, the Western Anomaly will be added to our focus going forward.

President and CEO, Morgan Lekstrom commented: “Our thesis has always been that a methodical and modern exploration approach in districts with small-scale, high-grade historical production can lead to the discovery of much larger mineralized systems. Soil sampling does not typically return silver results greater than 1 g/t, so we are very encouraged not only by the widespread nature of mineralization, but by the highly anomalous values from this program.” Lekstrom added, “This type of low-cost, high-impact exploration work aligns with our current view towards maintaining a strong treasury during the current market environment and we have initiated preliminary discussions with prospective partners on our Nevada assets as we advance these projects toward a drill-ready stage.”

Soil samples are commonly used as a targeting tool to find major discoveries and these results provide evidence supporting the potential for widespread mineralization well beyond the small historical mines dating back to the1860’s Hamilton Silver Rush.

Eliza North Soil Grid
To date, 518 soil samples have been collected from the Eliza North Grid Area, which includes the Passynak, Belmont and California historical mines. The mines are accessible by road and are situated within 670 m of each other. Each mine has a distinct geochemical anomaly collectively stretching over 700 m.

Passynak
The Passynak area is the strongest multi-element anomaly. Significant soil sample results were found over a broad 200 m diameter area. Twelve soil samples show greater than 1 g/t Ag with anomalous copper, lead, antimony, and zinc. Care and attention were given to eliminate any samples collected from past mine dumps or transported surface debris.

California
The California prospect area is as widespread as Passynak and crosses the Eberhardt Fault on both the north and south. The Eberhardt Fault is considered a main structure and integral to the mineralizing system. Antimony remained fairly consistent; however, gold appeared in minor values in surface soil samples.

Sampling Protocol

Soil samples were collected from the “B Horizon” every 75 metres (“m”) on 75m line spacing and then infilled on a 37.5 m spacing in areas of greater interest. Typical sample depths ranged between 30 and 45 centimetres.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control

Assays were processed by American Assay Laboratories Inc. in Sparks, Nevada. The laboratory has its own QA/QC protocols running standards and blanks with duplicate samples in each batch stream. Silver Hammer geological staff inserted a system of field duplicates, blanks and lab standards into the sample stream every 10 samples to ensure QA/QC of the work. A multi-element assay method was used for silver and all other elements called ICP-5AM48 with an ICP-OES/MS finish and reported in ppm. Gold was assayed by fire assay with an ICP finish and reported down to 3 ppb in method FA-PB30-ICP.

Silver47 Exploration Drills 7.68m of 1577 g/t Ag within 15m of 907 g/t Ag

October 24, 2022

Silver47 Exploration Corp. (Vancouver) (the “Company”) is pleased to report that it has completed 5 shallow diamond drill core holes at the Silver Matt Discovery on its wholly owned Michelle Project located in north-central Yukon, Canada. All 5 holes intersected oxide-sulphide mineralization. Mineralization was first discovered in the Silver Matt area in 2009 by prospecting, where a grab sample returned 4180 g/t Ag and where a 2015 hand trench yielded 2.8m of 894 g/t Ag, 46.9% Pb and 8.09% Zn. The initial drill discovery at the Silver Matt Target was made in 2021 through RC drilling in hole MCH-21-005 as highlighted below.

Highlights

· Discovery RC hole MCH-21-005 graded 19.8m of 556 g/t Ag, 20.3% Pb, 3.16% Zn, including 7.6m of 824ppm Ag, 28.7% Pb, 1.54% Zn.

· Discovery confirmation core hole MCH-22-002 yielded 15m of 907 g/t Ag, 26% Pb, 2.7% Zn including 7.7m of 1577 g/t Ag, 45% Pb, 4% Zn.

Drilling

Holes MCH-22-001 to MCH-22-003 were completed from the same collar as the 2021 RC holes to test potential down-dip and strike extension from the discovery hole MCH21-005. Holes MCH22-004 and MCH22-005 were collared 50m northwest to test strike extension (results pending).

Hosted in Bouvette Formation limestone and dolostone, mineralization occurs primarily as strongly oxidized material with remnant intervals of massive sulphide, primarily galena. The high-grade intervals are typically surrounded by a gradational alteration halo into fresh carbonates. Karst voids above and within the mineralized zones were noted. Mineralization appears to have a shallow northeast dip to flat-lying with a NW/SE strike orientation observed across the 5 holes drilled in 2022, please see Figure 2 below

Assay intervals are unweighted averages and true widths cannot be determined at this time.

Figure 1. General Location Map for the Michelle Project.

MCH-21-005 

Initial drilling at the Silver Matt Zone was completed using a Reverse Circulation drilling in late summer of 2021.  Oriented to drill under the 2015 trench, hole MCH-21-005 intersected a broad zone of oxide mineralization over 19.8m of 556 g/t Ag, 20.3% Pb, 3.16% Zn, including 7.6m of 824ppm Ag, 28.7% Pb, 1.54% Zn 

MCH-21-006 

The second hole drilled at Silver Matt in 2021 was drilled vertically from the same collar and intersected 3.04m of oxide mineralization grading 42.25 g/t Ag, 2.4% Pb, and 2.8% Zn at 13.72m depth. 

MCH-22-001 

The objective of MCH-22-001 was to undercut the RC discovery hole MCH-21-005. MCH-22-001 intercepted high-grade mineralization at a shallower depth than expected, indicating a flat to shallow-dipping lens.  An intensely oxidized interval of 4.40m from 21.65m to 26.05m contained up to 2% blebby galena with fine white crystalline precipitate zinc and lead oxides.   

MCH22-002 was drilled to twin MCH-21-005 to obtain structural data and better-define the mineralized zone, as hole 22-001 produced unexpected results.  The higher resolution data provided by core drilling the RC intercept allowed for readjustment of the following drill hole orientations.  MCH-22-002 resulted in similar mineralized widths, but with significantly higher-grade silver, lead and zinc.  This can be attributed to the better recovery percentage of core drilling compared to RC drilling, as well as more control on sampling intervals in the logging process. Up to 7% metallic sulphides, with lead-zinc precipitates were observed through the 7.68m interval.

MCH-22-003 

MCH-22-003 was oriented to test the NW/SE proposed strike trend, and intersected 9.4m of high-grade mineralization including 1.05m of 1395 g/t Ag, 51.47% Pb (final values pending), 12.25% Zn at 30m – 31.05m.  Hole 3 confirmed the strike orientation and shallow-dip of the mineralized lens.

Geochemical Sampling  

Concurrent to drilling operations, a property-wide surface sample and trenching program was carried out on high-priority targets.  A total of 754 soil samples and 92 rock samples (including trenches) were collected.  All trenches were hand-dug and reclaimed prior to the end of the program.  Notably, a trench dug approximately 500m NW of the Silver Matt drill holes reported two 2-meter contiguous samples grading 423 g/t Ag and 247 g/t Ag, with +10% Pb, indicating a significant potential strike extension of the mineralized trend. 

Silver Matt Target 

Trench TR22-01 was dug approximately 500m northwest, and on strike, to the Silver Matt showing produced two 2m composite samples of 423 g/t Ag, 11.9% Pb, 1.6% Zn; and 247 g/t Ag, 14.5% Pb and 0.76% Zn from 2.3m-4.3m and 4.3m-6.4m, respectively.  A rock grab sample taken 50m north of this trench graded 226 g/t Ag, 15.8% Pb, 2.1% Zn.  Additional samples indicated anomalous zinc concentrations northeast and east of the known mineralization. 

Heeler Target  

Located 10km east of the Silver Matt Zone, 5 trenches were completed at the Heeler showing, following up a 2015 high-grade sample.  Trench TR22-03 contained two samples (1m-1.6m, and 2.85-2.95) with 14.5 g/t Ag, 2.1% Pb, 1.5% Zn; and 22.9 g/t Ag, 1.5% Pb, 1.6% Zn.  Both samples also contained anomalous values of critical minerals returning 303ppm chromium, 3400ppm copper, 208ppm gallium, 1940ppm nickel, 936ppm antimony and 4980ppm vanadium. 

Two anomalous zinc samples were taken while prospecting east of the Heeler Target.  Sample E814060 graded 2.18% Zn and sample E814531 graded 3.6% Zn, 0.6% Pb, and 5.76 g/t Ag. 

Soil/talus-fines sampling in the Heeler area was inconclusive with several point anomalies for silver, lead, and zinc.  Further prospecting of this showing is warranted given the concentration of critical minerals. 

Nanny/Boxer Target 

Historic trenching and prospecting at these showings, 21km northeast from the Silver Matt Zone, produced several anomalies for 2022 follow up.  Soil/talus-fines sampling along contours and ridgelines in this target area resulted in three high-priority anomalies for silver, lead, zinc, barium, gallium, and vanadium.  Trenches TR-22-09 and TR-22-10 contained significant intervals of silver, lead and zinc mineralization.  TR-22-09 exposed two non-continuous intervals (trench filled with talus from 4.8m to 8.5m); 0-4.8m graded 2 g/t Ag, 0.1% Pb and 11.9% Zn over 4.8m and 10.2-16.1m graded 7.8 g/t Ag, 0.62% Pb and 7.9% Zn over 5.9m.  Both intervals contained anomalous values of cadmium and gallium.  TR-22-10 exposed a 9.5m interval of 103 g/t Ag, 8.1% Pb, and 4.2% Zn, including 3mof 355 g/t Ag, 24.5% Pb, 6.2% Zn. Two samples were collected while prospecting the Nanny/Boxer target area with >20% Zn and anomalous silver, lead, cadmium, and antimony concentrations.

Quality assurance and quality control protocols for rock, soil and drill core sampling follow industry standard practices.  Rock and soil samples were delivered directly to ALS Minerals preparation facility in Whitehorse, Yukon. Core samples were taken at 1.0m intervals in mineralized zones, and 3.0m intervals in unaltered, fresh host rock.  Blank, duplicate (coarse and lab pulp), and certified reference materials were inserted into the sample stream every 8th sample.  Core samples were cut in half, bagged, sealed and delivered to ALS Minerals preparation facility in Whitehorse, Yukon.  ALS Minerals Laboratories is registered to ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 17025 accreditations for laboratory procedures.  Rock and core samples were analyzed at ALS Laboratory facilities in North Vancouver using four acid digestion with an ICP-MS finish.  Over limits for Ag, Pb, and Zn were analyzed using Ore Grade four acid digestion.  Silver values >1,500ppm were analyzed using fire assay with gravimetric finish.  Lead >20% and Zinc >30% were analyzed using titration methods.  The standards, certified reference materials were acquired from CDN Resource Laboratories Ltd. of Langley, British Columbia and selected to represent expected mineralization.  Blank material consisted of non-mineralized limestone landscaping rock.

Silver Bullet Mines Continues to Assay for High-Grade Gold and PGMs

Burlington, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – October 18, 2022) – On September 26, 2022, Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) disclosed it had found significant levels of palladium, platinum, rhodium, osmium and gold in its concentrate.

To help identify with greater precision the location of the source of the platinum, palladium, rhodium, osmium and gold, SBMI recently took samples directly from locations around the Buckeye Silver Mine and the Company’s mill site, including from crushed material, directly from the vein, from diabase samples from the wall rock and from tailings from the run of lower grade material. The location from which those samples were taken and their assay results are below:

Samples from all locations above were taken to be as representative of the local mineralized material as possible. Samples taken from the crushed ore are by their nature representative of the source mineralized material.

In management’s opinion, this round of results provides further strong evidence for the conclusion that the Buckeye Silver Mine may host economic amounts of platinum, rhodium, palladium, osmium and gold, in addition to the original silver targets. Management has engaged third party engineers, metallurgists and geologists to assist in creating a new process flow sheet and in determining the nature of the mineralized material at the Buckeye Silver Mine. Without effecting selective disclosure, management has also had positive preliminary discussions with potential financiers, pending the delivery of the flow sheet and a rough budget.

QAQC

For each batch, Lone Pine Analytical of Phoenix, Arizona sampled two distinct samples (approx 200mg), digested, filtered, diluted and analyzed. For the digestion, the lab used [1mL HF: 4.5mL Nitric Acid: 4.5mL HCI]. The samples were digested in a microwave in sealed PTFE tubes where the temperature reached 200C with a total cycle time of 40 minutes. Bismuth (Bi) was used the internal standard. A three-point calibration, plotted through zero was used with excellent linear correlation for each element. Thus, the lab used an internal and external standards (instrument calibration). Chain of custody protocols were strictly observed. Lone Pine Analytical, as of September 11, 2022, is in the process of renewing its ISO /IEC-17025 lab accreditation with a scope for metals in soils and rocks.

Readers are cautioned that although management has made every reasonable effort to ensure the samples are as representative of the local mineralized material as possible, the samples above (apart from the crushed ore samples) are ultimately random by nature and may not be representative of the mineralization throughout the Buckeye Silver Mine.

Mr. Robert G. Komarechka, P.Geo., an independent consultant, has reviewed and verified SBMI’s work referred to herein, and is the Qualified Person for this release.
