KOOTENAY SILVER INTERCEPTS 809 GPT SILVER OVER 2.63 METERS WITHIN 354 GPT SILVER OVER 9 METERS IN THE F VEIN AT COLUMBA PROJECT, MEXICO

May 25, 2021

Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSXV: KTN; OTC: KOOYF) (the “Company” or “Kootenay”) is pleased to announce additional high-grade silver results from the Company’s 5,000 meter core drill program currently underway at its Columba silver project (the “Property”) located in Chihuahua State, Mexico.

James McDonald, President & CEO reports, “CDH-21-94 and 96 continue to hit consistent and high-grade results in the F Vein and are particularly important. They encountered excellent grades to 985 gpt and 425 gpt silver, respectively, within wide zones of high and moderate grades in a large area of the vein with no previous drilling.”

Augmenting the high-grade, in some areas, are thick zones of mineralization coming into the high-grade such as hole CDH-21-96 where over 30 meters of continuous mineralization averaged 86 gpt silver. A number of other areas within the F Vein show similar thick intervals coming into the high-grade such as holes CDH-20-41 (39.9 meters of 159 gpt silver), CDH-20-47 (15.65 meters of 166 gpt silver), CDH-20-51 (36 meters of 72 gpt silver), CDH-20-52 (42.43 meters of 61 gpt silver), CDH-20-53 (34 meters of 116 gpt silver) and CDH-21-89 (70.5 meters of 112 gpt silver). These thick zones of silver mineralization preceding the high grade have the potential to add significantly to the amount of silver within the F Vein.

Drill Highlights - Holes CDH-21-091 to 096:

CDH-21-091
* 271 gpt silver over 0.85 meters within 189 gpt silver over 1.55 meters in the F Vein

CDH-21-092
* 368 gpt silver over 0.94 meters within 217 gpt silver over 2.44 meters in the Hanging-wall structure
* 439 gpt silver over 1.14 meters within 321 gpt silver over 2.94 meters in in the F Vein
* 255 gpt silver over 2.9 meters within 130 gpt silver over 8.0 meters in the Footwall
* Hit 3 different Vein sets in the Hanging-Wall Vein, F Vein and a Footwall Vein.
* 425 gpt silver over 2.37 meters within 230 gpt silver over 9 meters and 86 gpt silver over 30 meters in the F Vein System.

CDH-21-094
* 985 gpt silver over 1.5 meters and 809 gpt silver over 2.63 meters within 354 gpt silver over 9 meters in the F Vein
* CDH-21-94 tested an area about 200 meters from the old shaft in a large undrilled segment.

* CDH-21-95 hit a fault and thus missed the F Vein.

CDH-21-096
* 425 gpt silver over 2.37 meters within 230 gpt silver over 9 meters and 86 gpt silver over 30 meters in the F Vein System.
* Hole CDH-21-096 is about 50 meters along strike and 30 meters deeper than CDH-21-94 and also tested a large area with no drilling.
* CDH-21-95 hit a fault and thus missed the F Vein.

Dollar Debasement Makes Gold and Silver Shine – Craig Hemke

By Greg Hunter
May 15, 2021



Financial writer, market analyst and precious metals expert Craig Hemke predicted last year (about this time) that silver was headed way up. It was up more than 45% for 2020 and was one of the best performing assets of the year. Now, Hemke is predicting “another 45% rise for silver” and a nice ride up for gold, too. Hemke explains, “Look at all of the commodities here. Lumber is up five times. Iron ore is at new all-time highs. Soybeans are at new multi-decade highs. Corn, which goes into everything . . . and all these commodities are taking off, which is, in large part, a dollar debasement story. . . . The idea that ‘inflation is transitory’ is bogus. . . . We just got news that McDonald’s and Amazon are raising their minimum wage to attract workers. That’s just more dollars being pushed out. You have more dollars pushed out chasing a finite or decreasing amount of goods because of the supply chain problems around the world. This is a double edged sword and why inflation is not ‘transitory.’ This is why rates are going to stay higher, and that’s why these negative real rates are going to get even deeper. The markets are going to figure this out, and the prices of precious metals are going to surge in the back half of the year–again.”

Hemke says the Fed is stuck and is fearful of rising rates with massive U.S. debt. Hemke contends, “The Fed cannot allow the bond market to sell off because that would translate to higher interest rates. We are already at $30 trillion in a federal budget deficit . . . and they are averaging 1.5%. So, they are paying $450 billion in interest alone. If that goes to 3%, they are paying $900 billion. If that goes to 4.5%, they are paying $1.3 trillion. The whole budget deficit has already exploded, and there is no turning back. . . . You saw the CPI at 4.25 %. Who in their right mind is going to buy a Treasury note at 1.65%? They will guarantee themselves a loss of purchasing power of 2.5%. . . . The Fed is promising that the inflation rate is going to come down, and it will be ‘transitory.’ I say it’s not ‘transitory.’ We have $3 trillion in deficit spending this year already, and it’s only going to get worse. We are on the path of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), and the Treasury issues the bonds and the Fed just buys the bonds. . . . This creates a very favorable environment for owning physical gold and physical silver even with the phony baloney pricing scheme of futures contracts.”

Above all, owning physical anything is protection from inflation that is already here. Hemke says, “We talk about owning physical precious metals for protection against all this madness. . . .They are constantly debasing the dollar, and I don’t want to save in dollars anymore. I’d rather save in an actual physical asset. . . . Even if it does nothing, this still beats an asset that is being inflated . . . . All these pieces are coming together again, and it’s pretty clear we’re going to have a heck of a summer and a heck of a rest of the year. I said silver is going to $36 or $38 per ounce this year, and from $26.50 is going to be 50 some odd percent. We are going to get there.”

KOOTENAY SILVER INTERCEPTS 2,176 GPT SILVER EQUIVALENT OVER 1.18 METERS WITHIN A WIDER INTERVAL OF 399 GPT SILVER EQUIVALENT OVER 10.5 METERS AT COPALITO SILVER-GOLD PROJECT, MEXICO

May 13, 2021

Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSXV: KTN; OTC: KOOYF) (the "Company" or "Kootenay") is pleased to announce results for the first four holes completed from the 2021 drill program at the Copalito silver-gold project (the "Property"), located in Sinaloa State, Mexico.

James McDonald, President and CEO, states "We continue to see good grade and width potential at Copalito with the 5 Señores vein returning grades up to 2,176 gpt silver equivalent. These results complement high grade drill holes previously intercepted in 5 Señores Vein, which returned 2,830 gpt silver and 0.145 gpt gold over 1 meter. There are 9 more holes to report from this vein the results of which will start to define the scope and continuity of high grade and where follow up drilling will be focused. Drilling has moved on to testing good results on the Cobriza, Aguilar and Pilar veins."

Highlights from Holes BDH-21-041 to BDH-21-044 include:

BDH-20-041 in the 5 Señores Vein
* 325.52 gpt silver equivalent ("silver Eq") over 1 meter consisting of 303 gpt silver, 0.09 gpt gold and 0.58% lead plus zinc within 86.28 gpt silver Eq over 5.75 meters consisting of 0.049 gpt gold, 75.3 gpt silver and 0.27% lead plus zinc;
* 101.33 silver Eq over 2 meters consisting of 1.10 gpt gold, 13 gpt silver and 0.30% lead plus zinc within 55.37 gpt silver Eq over 8.61 meters consisting of 0.456 gpt gold, 11.70 gpt silver and 0.38% lead plus zinc.
* This hole tested about 40° down dip of the high-grade intercept in hole BDH-20-040.

BDH-20-042 in the 5 Señores Vein
* 2,176.84 gpt silver Eq over 1.18 meters consisting of 1,965 gpt silver, 0.575 gpt gold, and 6.35% lead plus zinc within 213.68 gpt silver Eq over 21 meters consisting of 178.30 gpt silver, 0.187 gpt gold, and 0.81% lead plus zinc.
* BDH-21-042 filled an approximate 100-meter gap in drilling.

These results are showing potential for a mineralized "shoot" in the southern part of the 5 Señores vein. The zone remains open in several directions. Once assays from the remaining holes are received a clearer picture on the shape and size of these zones will begin to emerge and shape follow up drilling.

The 5 Señores vein is comprised of a mineralized structure with two parallel veins. These veins are comprised of both silicified breccia and classic banded quartz, quartz-calcite and calcite veining. The polymetallic veins are hosted in a volcanic andesite sequence with weak propylic alteration within faults and contact with a dioritic intrusive to the southwest. The veins are mainly quartz, with massive and crustiform textures and quartz-chalcedony bands. Dark gray bands indicate the presence of sulfides in these textures. Also local zones of carbonates mainly calcite can also carry very high grades of precious metals.

Mineralization is comprised of disseminated pyrite of 1% or less with varying amounts of sphalerite (< 1 to 5%), galena (< 1 to 3%) and probable acanthite.

Aurcana Silver Provides Construction Update And Production Outlook For Its Revenue Virginius Mine For The Remainder Of 2021

Vancouver, BC – May 4, 2021 – Aurcana SILVER Corporation ("Aurcana" or the "Company") (TSXV: AUN, OTCQX: AUNFF) is pleased to provide a construction update and a production outlook for the remainder of 2021 for its Revenue Virginius Mine, (RV) located near Ouray, Colorado.

Mine Development

* Underground mine development is proceeding on schedule with three raises being driven vertically from the 2000 main haulage level 800 feet to the 1200 level (See Figure 1 below).

* The #1 Alimak Raise is advancing vertically at an average rate exceeding 16 feet per day and is scheduled to be complete by late May, after which the hoist and shaft timber will be installed for permanent men and material access.

* The #2 Alimak Raise has progressed up to the 1500 Level and is temporarily being used for men and materials transport from the 2000 level to the 1800 and 1500 level pending completion of #1 Alimak Raise.

* The #3 Alimak Raise vertical development began in May and is scheduled to reach the 1800 level by the third week of May.

* On completion of #1 Alimak Raise, the #2 and # 3 Alimak raises will be dedicated ore and waste raises.

* Level (horizontal) development has commenced on the 1800 level to intersect the Virginius vein, which is scheduled to occur during the third week of May. Following this, development will continue by driving drifts both north and south on vein for over 1000 feet to prepare for stope development.

* Stope development on the 1800 level is estimated to begin in late June with first ore to the mill in early July.

* Ore development on 1800 level is on schedule to deliver initial ore to the processing plant in July. Two stopes (mining blocks) on the 1800 level will provide the initial ore supply while stopes on the 1500 level are developed.

* It is anticipated that four stopes will be available by year end 2021 (two stopes per level) to supply the processing plant.

However only two stopes are required to provide the 270 tons per day as specified in the 2018 feasibility study (the “2018 FS”) prepared in accordance with National Instrument NI 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”). A copy of the 2018 FS is posted on the Company’s website www.aurcana.com and is also available on the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Processing Plant Preparation

* All processing plant upgrades including installing additional flotation capacity, replacing cyclones with sizing screens, installing a rod mill, installing crushers and conveyors along with a new instrument control system will be completed by mid-June. Processing plant commissioning with water is scheduled for the last week of June with first ore through the processing plant in the second week of July.

* Final work on the transition chute from the coarse ore bin to the new primary pan feeder is scheduled to be completed by July 10th, 2021 and will enable full processing plant operation.

* Throughput will be ramped up over the course of July to reach 111 ton per day (tpd) during August, and then to the full production level of 270 tpd during September.

* Concentrate shipments will be in 100 ton lots and are anticipated to begin in early August. Trafigura Trading LLC is the off-taker for 100% of the concentrates and will pay the value of 95% of the contained metals based on the mine site concentrate assays at the time of shipment, with final settlement based on smelter returns.

* Payable silver equivalent1 production for the period between August to December 2021 is anticipated to be 1,300,000-1,600,000 ounces at an estimated cash operating costs of between USD10.00 to USD12.00/oz silver after by-product credits2.

Shareholders who have already submitted a proxy do not need to vote again for the postponed Meeting rescheduled for Monday, April 19, 2021 at 10:00 a.m. Pacific time at the Company’s offices at 777 Dunsmuir Street, Suite 1610, Vancouver, British Columbia, as the proxies submitted will remain valid.

Of particular importance, the Company’s board of directors strongly recommends that all shareholders to vote “FOR” the proposal to increase the number of authorized shares. In the absence of an affirmative vote to increase the number of authorized shares of Silver Bull common stock, the Company will have virtually no shares available for issuance to raise funds to fund general corporate overhead or cover the costs associated with maintaining its mining interests, including in the Sierra Mojada project in Mexico.

[basserdan]

My personal plea to ALL fellow Silver Bull shareholders (TSX:SVB, OTCQB:SVBL):

Please vote "YES" on the provision to increase the number of shares from 37.5 million to 150 million!
All bets are off if shareholders choose not to increase the share capital of Silver Bull. No company can run itself without access to the capital markets - Silver Bull will be no different


Silver Bull Reminds Shareholders Of The Annual Meeting Of Shareholders On April 12, 2021

VANCOUVER, BC – (April 6, 2021) – Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (TSX:SVB, OTCQB:SVBL) (“Silver Bull” or the “Company”) reminds all shareholders to vote in advance of the annual meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”) on Monday, April 12, 2021 at 10:00 a.m. PT.

The Company’s board of directors STRONGLY RECOMMENDS that all shareholders vote “FOR” all proposals, particularly the proposal to increase the number of authorized shares.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT – PLEASE VOTE TODAY
The proxy voting deadline is 11:59 p.m. ET on April 11, 2021.
We encourage you to vote well in advance of the deadline.
For any questions or assistance with voting, please contact management by email at [e-mail].

President and CEO Tim Barry states,

We have recently announced the private placement into our British Columbia incorporated subsidiary “Arras Minerals Corp.” which holds the option agreement for the Beskauga Project, and the Stepnoe and Ekidos mineral licenses in Kazakhstan. This structure allows us to move forward and finance the Kazakhstan projects. We still need to be able to fund the costs of the Sierra Mojada Project. To do this we need to increase the Company’s authorized share capital. To ensure the Company can continue the development of the Sierra Mojada project, and ensure shareholders continue to have exposure to silver and zinc, it is vital that the Company has access to capital.

Without shareholder approval, the Company will have virtually no shares available for issuance to cover the costs of maintaining its interest in the Sierra Mojada project or cover the costs of its general corporate overhead. (basser's bolding for emphasis) Management would need to immediately investigate all available options, including, but not limited to, seeking to dispose of the Company’s assets or engage in a business combination. Any such transaction may not be on terms that are favorable to the Company. Continuing in business with virtually no shares available for issuance is not a sustainable path for the Company.

On behalf of Silver Bull’s management and board, we thank you for your support on this very important matter.”

Authorized Share Increase Proposal

By increasing the number of authorized shares of Silver Bull common stock now, the Company will be able to act in a timely manner when the need to raise equity capital arises or when the Company’s board of directors believes it is in the best interests of the Company and shareholders to take action, without the delay and expense that would be required at that time to obtain shareholder approval to increase the authorized shares. Business purposes for which the Company could seek to raise additional capital include furthering the development of the Sierra Mojada project in Mexico. Virtually all junior exploration companies like the Company remain as viable companies and conduct their mineral exploration activities by raising funds by issuing shares from time to time. In the absence of an affirmative vote to increase the number of authorized shares of Silver Bull common stock, the Company will have an insufficient number of authorized shares to raise funds to fund general corporate overhead or cover the costs associated with maintaining its interests in the Sierra Mojada project in Mexico.

Silver Bull Annual Meeting of Shareholders

The Meeting is scheduled for 10:00 a.m. PT on Monday, April 12, 2021, at the Company’s offices at 777 Dunsmuir Street, Suite 1610, Vancouver, British Columbia.

The board of directors of Silver Bull unanimously recommends that Silver Bull shareholders vote FOR all proposals.

Additional information concerning the proposals can be found in the definitive proxy statement dated February 23, 2021. An electronic copy of the definitive proxy statement is available on the Company’s website at www.silverbullresources.com, on the Company’s EDGAR profile at www.sec.gov, and on its SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.

Silver Bull Announces Private Placement of C$2,517,500 in Newly Incorporated Subsidiary Arras Minerals Corp. And Transfer of Kazakh Exploration Projects

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 01, 2021 -- Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (OTCQB: SVBL, TSX: SVB) (“Silver Bull” or the “Company”), a mineral exploration company with assets in Kazakhstan and Mexico, is pleased to announce the completion of a C$2,517,500 private placement (the “Private Placement”) into its newly incorporated British Columbia subsidiary, Arras Minerals Corp. (“Arras Minerals”).

Pursuant to the Private Placement, investors purchased 5.035 million shares of Arras Minerals at a price of C$0.50 each for gross proceeds of C$2,517,500, with management and directors (and their affiliates) taking approximately C$200,000 of the offering. No placement agent or finder’s fees were paid in connection with the Private Placement.

Silver Bull’s assets in Kazakhstan, including the Beskauga Option Agreement and the Ekidos and Stepnoe mineral licences, have been transferred to Arras Minerals. In return, Silver Bull has received 36 million shares of Arras Minerals and owns approximately 88% of the company, with the remaining 12% owned by the individuals who participated in the Private Placement.

The net proceeds from the Private Placement will be used to fund exploration activities, technical studies and permitting on the Company’s projects in Kazakhstan and for general and working capital purposes in managing the Kazakhstan projects.

Beskauga Deposit, Kazakhstan: The Beskauga deposit is an open pittable gold-copper-silver deposit with a NI 43-101 compliant “Indicated Mineral Resource” of 207 million tonnes grading 0.35 g/t gold, 0.23% copper and 1.09 g/t silver for 2.33 million contained ounces of gold, 476.1 thousand contained tonnes of copper and 7.25 million contained ounces of silver and an “Inferred Mineral Resource” of 147 million tonnes grading 0.33 g/t gold, 0.15% copper and 1.02 g/t silver for 1.56 million contained ounces of gold, 220.5 thousand contained tonnes of copper and 4.82 million contained ounces of silver.

The constraining pit was optimised and calculated using a net smelter return (“NSR”) cut-off based on prices of: $1,500/oz for gold, $2.80/lb for copper, $17.25/oz for silver, and with an average recovery of 81.7% for copper and 51.8% for both gold and silver. Mineralization remains open in all directions as well as at depth.

Table 1. Pit-constrained Mineral Resource estimate for the Beskauga copper-gold project:
(Click on link below to view Table 1.)

Notes:
* An NSR $/t cut-off of $5.70/t was used, and the NSR formula is: NSR $/t = (38.137+11.612 x Cu%) x Cu% + (19.18 + 12.322 x Au g/t) x Au g/t + (0.07 + 0.0517 x Ag g/t) x Ag g/t
* The NSR formula incorporates variable recovery formulae. Average copper recovery was 81.7% copper and 51.8% for both gold and silver.
* Metal prices considered were $2.80/lb copper, $1,500/oz gold and $17.25/oz silver.
* The Resource is stated within a pit shell that considers a 1.25 factor above the metal prices.
* Mineral Resources are estimated and reported in accordance with the CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves adopted 10 May 2014.
* The Mineral Resource is not believed to be materially affected by any known environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-economic, marketing, political or other relevant factors
* These Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves as they do not have demonstrated economic viability.
* The quantity and grade of reported Inferred Resources in this mineral resource estimate (MRE) are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define these Inferred Resources as Indicated or Measured; however, it is reasonably expected that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration.

For additional details, please refer to the Beskauga Copper-Gold Project NI 43-101 Technical Report prepared by CSA Global Mining Industry Consultants dated February 8, 2021, which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

The technical information of this news release has been reviewed and approved by Tim Barry, a Chartered Professional Geologist (CPAusIMM), and a qualified person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101.

Silver Bull Resources Wins Lawsuit in Mexico

Vancouver, British Columbia March 31, 2021 – Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (TSX: SVB, OTCQB: SVBL) ("Silver Bull" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has won a definitive and conclusive decision in its favor in a lawsuit filed by a local mining co-operative called Minera Norteños. The decision was made by the unanimous vote of three Judges in the third Federal Circuit Court of Chihuahua.

Tim Barry, President, CEO and director of Silver Bull states, "This ruling is welcome, but not unanticipated. This is the fourth time that the courts have ruled in our favor on this issue. Unfortunately, we believe the plaintiff, Minera Norteños was manipulated and ill advised by legal and other advisers. Our legal team in Mexico is to be commended for patiently making progress in the face of numerous tactics to delay a judgement on the merits of the case.

Despite the fact that the Company has at all times proceeded in accordance with the law, the project remains under an illegal blockade manned by a small group of radical members from within Minera Norteños. We believe their actions do not represent the view of the vast majority of the Minera Norteños members and wider local community, and we are working with authorities to resolve the situation in a safe, fair, and timely manner. We remain committed to good faith dialogue with reasonable members from Minera Norteños, many of whom have worked for Silver Bull, to find a solution that facilitates the resumption of the drilling program halted by the blockade more than one year ago.

It is unfortunate shareholders have had to put up with this type of action over the recent years, however we are optimistic we will find a solution to the blockade and look forward to continuing our exploration program with our joint venture partner, South32. Sierra Mojada remains one of the largest undeveloped silver-zinc projects in Mexico. The silver-zinc mineralization sits largely at surface and is open pittable and has excellent infrastructure close by. These types of deposits are rare."

South32 Joint Venture Option: In June 2018 Silver Bull signed an agreement with a wholly owned subsidiary of South32 whereby Silver Bull has granted South32 an option to form a 70/30 joint venture with respect to the Sierra Mojada Project. To maintain the option in good standing, South32 must contribute minimum exploration funding of US$10 million ("Initial Funding") during a 4-year option period with minimum aggregate exploration funding of US$3 million, US$6 million and US$8 million to be made by the end of years 1, 2 and 3 of the option period respectively. South32 may exercise its option to subscribe for 70% of the shares of Minera Metalin S.A. De C.V. ("Metalin"), the wholly owned subsidiary of Silver Bull which holds the claims in respect of the Sierra Mojada Project, by contributing US$100 million to Metalin for Project funding, less the amount of the Initial Funding contributed by South32 during the option period.

Despite the blockade, the joint venture option with South32 remains in good standing but under a force majeure pause.

About Silver Bull: Silver Bull is a Vancouver-based mineral exploration company whose shares are listed on the TSX and trade on the OTCQB in the United States. In addition to the Sierra Mojada project, Silver Bull recently signed an Option Agreement to acquire the Beskauga Copper-Gold Project, located in North Eastern Kazakhstan. The Beskauga deposit is an open pittable gold-copper-silver deposit with a NI 43-101 compliant "Indicated Mineral Resource" of 207 million tonnes grading 0.35 g/t gold, 0.23% copper and 1.09 g/t silver for 2.33 million contained ounces of gold, 476.1 thousand contained tonnes of copper & 7.25 million contained ounces of silver and an "Inferred Mineral Resource" of 147 million tonnes grading 0.33 g/t gold, 0.15% copper and 1.02 g/t silver for 1.56 million contained ounces of gold, 220.5 thousand contained tonnes of copper & 4.82 million contained ounces of silver.

For additional details, please refer to the Beskauga Copper-Gold Project NI 43-101 Technical Report prepared by CSA Global Mining Industry Consultants dated February 8, 2021, which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on the Company's website at www.silverbullresources.com.

Complete drill results for Copalito can be found on our company website. AgEq. calculated above are based on $24/oz silver, $1900/oz gold, $1/lb zinc, $0.8/lb lead. Estimated true widths range from 65 to 90% of drilled widths depending on dip of the vein and inclination of the hole. All AgEq. and silver composites rounded to the nearest whole number. See news releases dated July 22 2020, October 27, 2020 and November 12, 2020 for further detail.

James McDonald, CEO and President Stated: "This program is aimed at establishing if we have continuity and size in zones already identified and to test those areas, we did not test in 2020. We are excited to get going again and are looking forward to the results of the drill program.”

The Company has contracted GlobeXplore, S.A. de C.V. of Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico to conduct the HQ core drilling at Copalito.Results of the drill program will be announced as soon as the assays are received and interpreted by the Company.

About the Copalito Property
The Copalito Project is a classic low sulphidation epithermal vein system which has numerous small old workings and no evidence or reports of historic exploration drilling. The Property consists of seven concessions totaling approximately 3,700 hectares and is located 35 kilometers east of McEwen Mining’s “El Gallo Mine” complex in Sinaloa State, along the western fringes of the Sierra Madre Occidental in northwestern Mexico. The Copalito Project has good access, topography and infrastructure.

Copalito Geology
Mineralization is hosted within classic low sulfidation epithermal quartz and rare calcite veins. Multiple mineral events are evidenced by banded mineralized textures, multiple cross cutting veins/veinlets, laminated banding of chalcedonic and crystalline quartz, sulfide replacement and infillings of breccia matrix. Sulfide content is generally low but does range to 20% or more in hand samples. Sulfides and their oxide equivalents include fine grained pyrite, black and yellow sphalerite, galena, chalcopyrite and silver sulphosalts. Some zonation is becoming apparent with veins in the northeast being higher in gold and base metals and those in the south being high in silver and low in base metals.

Sampling and QA/QC at Copalito
All technical information for the Copalito exploration program is obtained and reported under a formal quality assurance and quality control (“QA/QC”) program. Samples are taken from core cut in half with a diamond saw under the direction of qualified geologists and engineers. Samples are then labeled, placed in plastic bags, sealed and with interval and sample numbers recorded. Samples are delivered by the Company to ALS Minerals (“ALS”) in Hermosillo, Sonora. The samples are dried, crushed and pulverized with the pulps being sent airfreight for analysis by ALS in North Vancouver, B.C. Systematic assaying of standards, blanks and duplicates is performed for precision and accuracy. Analysis for silver, zinc, lead and copper and related trace elements was done by ICP four acid digestion, with gold analysis by 30-gram fire assay with an AA finish.

KOOTENAY SILVER TRENCHES 33.0 METERS OF 2.67 GPT GOLD INCLUDING 9.0 METERS OF 5.29 GPT GOLD AT MALE GOLD PROJECT, MEXICO

March 17, 2021

Kootenay Silver Inc.(TSXV: KTN, OTC: KOOYF) (the “Company” or “Kootenay”) is pleased to announce the discovery of significant gold on its 100% owned Maria Elena gold project (“Male” or the “Property”), located approximately 100 kilometers south east of the city of Hermosillo in Sonora State, Mexico.

Trenching conducted at the Property has exposed several exciting gold results.This program included a total of 8 trenches completed over four areas of the Property.Of the eight trenches, positive results from five (trenches 0,2,4,5,6) were received with results for the remaining trenches (1, 3 and 7) not encountering any significant veining or values.Highlights from the results received to date are as follows:

Trench 6
* 33 meters averaging 2.67 gpt gold
Includes 9 meters of 5.29 gpt gold
Includes 1 meter of 23.7 gpt gold

Trench 4
* 24 meters averaging 1.81 gpt gold
Includes 8 meters of 3.98 gpt gold
Includes 1 meter of 17.25. gpt gold

Trench 2
* 9 meters averaging 2.01 gpt gold
Includes 1 meter of 15.45 gpt gold

Initial trenching was completed by an excavator with chip samples taken across one-meter lengths. Trench 0 returned narrow anomalous gold values to 0.38 gpt gold over one meter.

Gold mineralization is hosted by stock works of quartz and quartz carbonate veins formed by conjugate sets of veins striking northeast and northwest. These stock working veins form zones that range in apparent width, from a scale of one meter to over 30 meters. The zones form mineralized “structures” or trends that can be traced individually for hundreds of meters (generally 200 to 1000 meters).Further trenching is required to better determine true widths and continuity along strike.

The mineralized stock works are made of multiple veins that individually range from tens of centimeters to 1.7 meters in width.Numerous conjugate vein sets and associated stock work zones occur within a 1.5 by 1.5-kilometer area hosted within a diorite intrusion and are the source of the placer gold historically mined on the property.

Prior to trenching, earlier prospecting work by Kootenay indicated very anomalous gold in the quartz veins.Out of 426 select (prospector) grab samples and soils, 47% of the tests returned greater than 0.5 gpt gold, whereas 36% returned greater than 1 gpt gold and 16% retuned greater than 5 gpt gold. Individual gold values included highs of 260 gpt, 85 gpt, 81 gpt, 53 gpt and 51 gpt.

Historic activity at Male includes hundreds of dry placer pits that often tested into the gold bearing quartz veins in bedrock. The area is extensively covered by overburden and thus holds the possibility of hiding a potentially large gold deposit.

The gold is associated with irregular silver values exceeding 900 gpt however silver is generally low. Copper, lead and zinc is also anomalous with highs to 0.56%, 2.6% and 3.9%, respectively.Molybdenum and tungsten occur as well.

A 36-line kilometer ground magnetic survey has been conducted. Preliminary interpretation shows some association with magnetic trends striking northwest, north-south and northeast with the primary stock work trends. Interpretation of the mag data continues. Two IP lines which range about 2 kilometers each have also been run. These results are also being compiled.

Follow up steps involve interpretation of the geophysics to determine its usefulness in mapping the gold zones in covered zones, more trenching and then a decision on whether to drill or option the project.

The geophysical and trenching was conducted and paid for by a third-party with Kootenay submitting the trench samples for assay.

Sampling and QA/QC at Male
All technical information for the Columba exploration program is obtained and reported under a formal quality assurance and quality control ("QA/QC") program. Samples reported were all taken in one meter long intervals and are chip samples. Samples were delivered by the Company to ALS Minerals ("ALS") in Hermosillo.

Silver Bull Files Maiden NI 43-101 Resource of 2.33 Million Ounces of Gold & 476 Thousand Tonnes of Copper in the “Indicated” Category, and 1.56 Million Ounces of Gold & 220 Thousand Tonnes of Copper in the “Inferred” Category on the Beskauga Copper-Gold Project in Northeastern Kazakhstan (OTCQB:SVBL; TSX:SVB)

February 16, 2021

An excerpt:

Tim Barry, President, CEO and director of Silver Bull states, "This is a great first step in development of the Beskauga project and wider regional potential. Kazakhstan is fast emerging as one of the premium mining jurisdictions on the planet. The prospectivity of the geology, coupled with the recently revised mining law and strong government support for the mining sector makes it a standout in the mining world. Furthermore, the outstanding infrastructure and access to the project adds significantly to Beskauga's potential viability"

https://www.silverbullresources.com/news/silver-bull-files-maiden-ni-43-101-resource-of-2.33-million-ounces-of-gold-476-thousand-tonnes-of-copper-in-the-indicated/

[basserdan]

Silver Bull Announces Maiden NI 43-101 Resource of 2.33 Million Ounces of Gold & 476 Thousand Tonnes of Copper in the “Indicated” Category, and 1.56 Million Ounces of Gold & 220 Thousand Tonnes of Copper in the “Inferred” Category at the Beskauga Copper-Gold Project in Northeastern Kazakhstan

Vancouver, British Columbia Jan. 28, 2021 – Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (OTCQB: SVBL, TSX: SVB) (“Silver Bull”) is pleased to announce its maiden Mineral Resource estimate on the Beskauga copper-gold project completed by CSA Global Consultants Canada Ltd (“CSA Global”).

Highlights of the Mineral Resource report include:

* An open pit-constrained Indicated Mineral Resource of 207 million tonnes grading 0.35 g/t gold, 0.23% copper and 1.09 g/t silver for 2.33 million ounces of gold, 476.1 thousand tonnes of copper, & 7.25 million ounces of silver.

* An open pit-constrained Inferred Mineral Resource of 147 million tonnes grading 0.33 g/t gold, 0.15% copper and 1.02 g/t silver for 1.56 million ounces of gold, 220.5 thousand tonnes of copper, & 4.82 million ounces of silver.

* The constraining pit was optimised and calculated using a NSR cut-off based on a price of: $1,500/oz for gold, $2.80/lb for copper, $17.25/oz for silver, and with an average recovery of 81.7% for copper and 51.8% for both gold and silver.

Beskauga Resource: The Beskauga resource was estimated from 118 diamond drill holes, totalling 45,605.8 meters drilled between 2007 and 2017 by the private Swiss company, Copperbelt AG. Holes were drilled from surface using an HQ or NQ sized core diameter and varied in depth between 150m to 815m. The estimated Mineral Resource is shown in the table below.


Table 1. Pit-constrained Mineral Resource estimate for the Beskauga copper-gold project

Notes:
* An NSR $/t cut-off of $5.70/t was used, and the NSR formula is: NSR $/t = (38.137+11.612 x Cu%) x Cu% + (19.18 + 12.322 x Au g/t) x Au g/t + (0.07 + 0.0517 x Ag g/t) x Ag g/t
* The NSR formula incorporates variable recovery formulae. Average copper recovery was 81.7% copper and 51.8% for both gold and silver.
* Metal prices considered were $2.80/lb copper, $1,500/oz gold and $17.25/oz silver.
* The Resource is stated within a pit shell that considers a 1.25 factor above the metal prices.
* Mineral Resources are estimated and reported in accordance with the CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves adopted 10 May 2014.
* The Mineral Resource is not believed to be materially affected by any known environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-economic, marketing, political or other relevant factors
* These Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves as they do not have demonstrated economic viability.
* The quantity and grade of reported Inferred Resources in this MRE are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define these Inferred Resources as Indicated or Measured; however, it is reasonably expected that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration.

In order to address the potential for eventual economic extraction in an open pit context, the reported Mineral Resources fall within an optimized Lerch-Grossman pit shell that uses a gold price of US$1,500/oz, a copper price of US$2.80, and a silver price of US$17.25 with an average recovery of copper at 81.7% and gold and silver of 51.8%.

Pit walls are set at 42 degrees in the overburden and 45 degrees in the hard rock. Mining costs were assumed to be US$1.00 in overburden and US$1.50/tonne in the hard rock and processing costs were assumed to be US$5.70/tonne. To determine the $/t value of the rock the following calculation was made:

NSR $/t = (38.137+11.612 x Cu%) x Cu% + (19.18 + 12.322 x Au g/t) x Au g/t + (0.07 + 0.0517 x Ag g/t) x Ag p/t

Mineral resources were estimated by Ordinary Kriging using Micromine modeling software in multiple passes using 20 meter X 20 meter X 20 meter blocks as the SMU size. Blocks have been classified as Indicated or Inferred Mineral Resources.

The Mineral Resource was estimated by Serik Urbisinov, a Principal Resource Geologist for CSA Global, who is an independent Qualified Persons as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The full Technical Report will be filed onto the SEDAR website within the next 45 days.

Mineralization and geology: The Beskauga deposit is interpreted to be a copper-gold porphyry. Pyrite, chalcopyrite and tennantite are the dominant sulphide minerals at Beskauga, with smaller amounts of bornite, chalcocite, enargite, and molybdenite, with magnetite and hematite, also described. Sulphides occur as fine-grained disseminations as well as in stockwork veins and veinlets, associated with an elongated granodiorite porphyry intrusion. The grade of the copper and gold are highly correlated.

At surface, the deposit is covered by a 30 to 40 meter thick layer of recent sediments and remains open in all directions including at depth, with many of the drill holes terminating in mineralization. The chemistry and mineralogy of the mineralization defined thus far suggests the present resource is still in the upper part of the mineralizing system. The deposit has not benefited from detailed geological study and modelling which presents an opportunity to optimize extension targeting and definition of additional resources.


Figure 1. Surface projection of the Beskauga deposit showing the gold and the copper cut-offs. Also shown is the outline of the Lerch-Grossman conceptual pit.

Infrastructure: The Beskauga deposit has excellent infrastructure. All operations are based out of the nearby mining town of Ekibastuz, which services the largest coal mine in Kazakhstan and provides a highly trained workforce for Silver Bull to draw upon. Paved road access, 1100 KVA power lines and heavy rail all lie within a 25 kilometer radius of the project. The capital city of Nur-Sultan, located approximately 300 kilometers along a double lane highway from the project, has a major international airport allowing for easy access and administration of the Beskauga project.

Tim Barry, President, CEO and director of Silver Bull states, “We are extremely pleased with this first NI 43-101 resource estimate at Beskauga. We believe the Beskauga project represents one of the best exploration opportunities in the world and we see significant opportunity to expand the current resource. We also believe there is considerable exploration potential in the wider region for both copper and gold and expect to have a pipeline of projects and associated news coming in from both the Beskauga Project and the wider area during 2021.

This year is shaping up to be an exciting one for Silver Bull. Presently, we are compiling the significant Soviet-era historical information in the region as well as building a team in-country. We expect to commence our on the ground exploration program at the beginning of the second quarter of this year.”

About Kazakhstan

Size: Kazakhstan is the ninth largest country in the world, covering 2,717,300 square kilometers, and has a population of 18.2 million people.

Capital City: The capital city is Nur-Sultan which is located 300 kilometers from the project. Nur-Sultan has a major international airport allowing for easy access and administration of the Beskauga Project.

Mining Law: Kazakhstan adopted a new mining code titled “Code on Surface and Subsoil Use” (the "SSU Code") on December 27, 2017, and became effective on June 29, 2018. The SSU Code is based on the Western Australian model where Kazakhstan moved from a contractual regime to a licensing regime for solid minerals (except for uranium). Coincident with the updated SSU law, the Kazakhstan government also reduced a considerable amount of the administrative burdens for subsoil users.

Tax: A summary of pertinent taxes related to exploration in Kazakhstan is as follows:
* 20% corporate tax
* 12% value-added tax (VAT) is refundable for exploration companies
* 4.7% royalty for copper
* 5% royalty for gold and silver

Geological Prospectivity: Kazakhstan is one of the most prospective countries in the world for a number of metals. According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Kazakhstan is:
* 1st in the world for uranium production (41% of world output)
* 2nd in the world for chromite production (18% of world output)
& 4th in the world for titanium production (6% of world output)
* 10th in the world for copper production

In addition, Kazakhstan has significant proven reserves (as yet unmined) of gold, silver, lead, zinc, tin, iron ore, nickel, cobalt, and bauxite.

The Fraser Institute Annual Survey of Mining Companies in 2017, ranked Kazakhstan the 24th best mining jurisdiction in the world.

About Silver Bull: Silver Bull is a mineral exploration company whose shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and trade on the OTCQB in the United States, and is based out of Vancouver, Canada. In addition to the Beskauga deposit, Silver Bull also owns the Sierra Mojada Project in Northern Mexico which is currently under a joint Venture with South32 Ltd.

About the Sierra Mojada deposit: Sierra Mojada is an open-pittable oxide deposit with a NI 43-101 compliant Measured and Indicated "global" Mineral Resource of 70.4 million tonnes grading 3.4% zinc and 38.6 g/t silver at a $13.50 NSR cutoff giving 5.35 billion pounds of zinc and 87.4 million ounces of silver. Included within the "global" Mineral Resource is a Measured and Indicated "high grade zinc zone" of 13.5 million tonnes with an average grade of 11.2% zinc at a 6% cutoff, giving 3.336 billion pounds of zinc, and a Measured and Indicated "high grade silver zone" of 15.2 million tonnes with an average grade of 114.9 g/t silver at a 50 g/t cutoff giving 56.3 million ounces of silver. Mineralization remains open in the east, west, and northerly directions. Approximately 60% of the current 3.2 kilometer mineralized body is at or near surface before dipping at around 6 degrees to the east.

The technical information of this news release has been reviewed and approved by Tim Barry, a Chartered Professional Geologist (CPAusIMM), and a qualified person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101.

* After completing US$15 million in cumulative exploration expenditures Silver Bull can acquire the Beskauga property for a US$15 million cash payment.

* Copperbelt may receive a bonus payment of up to US$32 million should Silver Bull publish a Bankable Feasibility Study (“BFS”) with a resource of up to 10 million gold equivalent ounces on the main Beskauga prospect and 5 million gold equivalent ounces on an additional prospect. 20% of the bonus is payable 60 days after publishing a BFS, with the remaining 80% payable on the commencement of mine construction. Up to 50% of the bonus is payable in common stock of Silver Bull at Silver Bull’s election.

* Silver Bull will pay a finder’s fee to a third party upon the satisfaction of certain conditions.

Tim Barry, President, CEO and director of Silver Bull states, “We are extremely pleased to close this agreement with Copperbelt. We believe the Beskauga copper-gold project represents one of the best exploration opportunities in the world. The high quality work that has been completed on the project to date indicates that Beskauga is a huge mineralizing system that has considerable upside that has yet to be explored. We will be working closely with our partners from Copperbelt to quickly and efficiently explore these areas. In addition to the exploration potential at Beskauga, the project has excellent infrastructure.

Paved road access and, 1100 KVA power lines, heavy rail, and a highly trained workforce all lie within a 10 kilometer radius. The capital city of Nur-Sultan, located approximately 300 kilometers from the project, has a major international airport allowing for easy access and administration of the Beskauga project.

As a mining jurisdiction Kazakhstan is fast becoming a “go to” place due to its recently updated mining law and incredible geological prospectivity. In June 2018 the Kazakhstan government implemented a new mining code based on the mining code used in Western Australia and has reduced a considerable amount of the administrative burdens for subsoil users. Unlike many governments around the world today, the Kazakh government is very supportive of the mining sector, a view which is highlighted by the fact that numerous major mining companies have recently set up an office in the country and acquired exploration licenses. We expect to provide more details about the Beskauga project itself in the coming months.”

About Kazakhstan

Size: Kazakhstan is the ninth largest country in the world, covering 2,717,300 km2, and has a population of 18.2 million people.

Capital City: The capital city is Nur-Sultan which is located 300 kilometers from the project. Nur-Sultan has a major international airport allowing for easy access and administration of the Beskauga project.

Mining Law: Kazakhstan adopted a new mining code titled “Code on Surface and Subsoil Use” (the "SSU Code") on December 27, 2017, that became effective on June 29, 2018. The SSU Code is based on the Western Australian model where Kazakhstan moved from a contractual regime to a licensing regime for solid minerals (except for uranium). Coincident with the updated SSU law, the Kazakhstan government also reduced a considerable amount of the administrative burdens for subsoil users.

Tax: A summary of pertinent taxes related to exploration in Kazakhstan is as follows:

* 20% corporate tax
* 12% value-added tax (VAT) is refundable for exploration companies
* 4.7% royalty for copper
* 5% royalty for gold and silver

Geological Prospectivity: Kazakhstan is one of the most prospective countries in the world for a number of metals. According the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Kazakhstan is;

* 1st in the world for uranium production (41% of world output)
* 2nd in the world for chromite production (18% of world output)
* 4th in the world for titanium production (6% of world output)
* 10th in the world for copper production

In addition, Kazakhstan has significant proven reserves (as yet unmined) of gold, silver, lead, zinc tin, iron ore, nickel, cobalt, and bauxite

The Fraser Institute Annual Survey of Mining Companies in 2017, ranked Kazakhstan the 24th best mining jurisdiction in the world.

Sierra Mojada Update

Silver Bull’s Sierra Mojada project remains under an illegal blockade organized by a Cooperative of local Miners called Sociedad Cooperativa de Exploración Minera Mineros Norteños, S.C.L. (“Mineros Norteños”).

Due to COVID-19 the Mexican court system remains closed and the timing of reopening is uncertain. In an attempt to force Silver Bull into making a settlement, Mineros Norteños has blocked access to the project since September 2019. To ensure the safety of all involved, Silver Bull has elected to halt all operations on the project until a resolution can be found.

The joint venture option with South32 remains in good standing but under a force majeure pause.

About Silver Bull: Silver Bull is a mineral exploration company whose shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and trade on the OTCQB in the United States. Silver Bull owns the Sierra Mojada project which is located 150 kilometers north of the city of Torreon in Coahuila, Mexico, and is highly prospective for silver and zinc. Sierra Mojada is currently under a joint venture option with South32 International Investment Holdings Pty Ltd.

KOOTENAY SILVER REPORTS ON 2020 MILESTONES AND OUTLINES STRATEGIC PLANS FOR 2021

January 12, 2021

Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSXV: KTN; OTC: KOOYF) (the “Company” or “Kootenay”) recaps a busy 2020 and provides a general look ahead for an exciting 2021 exploration season. Details related to the Company’s plans for 2021, will be announced in the coming weeks in addition to assay results received from the remaining 17 holes drilled at the Columba high grade silver project. During the past year, the Company completed two large drill programs totaling over 13,000 meters, collectively on the Columba and Copalito properties. Based on the results seen to date, both projects hold great promise for the discovery and development of a classic high-grade silver or silver and gold vein deposits, respectively.

Milestones Achieved in 2020

Columba Project, Chihuahua

* Initiated and completed the second drill program comprised of 43 holes, totaling over 9,114 meters designed as a follow up the initial 41 holes completed in 2019.
* Targeted infill and step out drilling within the high-grade F vein at the site of historical mining
* Further drill tested higher grade intercepts encountered in 2019 on other veins (such as the J & Z Veins) and tested previously undrilled veins mapped by the Kootenay geologic team.
* Discovered the J-Z vein - an area that hosts a different geological structure composed of veins and breccia as opposed to the classic epithermal veins present in the F vein.
* Intercepted additional high-grade silver mineralization within the F vein, which included an impressive hanging wall structure parallel to the F vein that was not apparent from surface.
* Drill highlights included:
- CDH-20-045: 0.5 meters of 974 gpt silver; F Vein

Complete drill results for both Columba and Copalito can be found on our company website. AgEq. based $24/oz silver $1900/oz gold, $1/lb zinc, $0.8/lb lead. Estimated true widths range from 65 to 90% of drilled widths depending on dip of the vein and inclination of the hole. All AgEq. And silver composites rounded to the nearest whole number.

Cervantes Project, Sonora

* Completed a joint venture (“JV”) agreement with Aztec Minerals Corp. in respect of the Cervantes porphyry gold-copper project in Sonora, Mexico.
* Aztec Minerals completed the earn-in to acquire 65% interest in Cervantes with Kootenay retaining the remaining 35%. Both companies will hold interests in the Property indirectly through share ownership in the JV company, Aztec Minerals (Mexico) JV Corp.

La Cigarra Project, Chihuahua

* Initiated the relogging of drill core from within the resource to work conducted in 2015, to create a new geological model better fitting the geology of the resource to potentially optimize grade and increase economic favourability.

Financings

* Closed a major financing in August with leader broker Mackie Research Capital Corporation for gross proceeds of $7 million. Each $0.40 unit was comprised of one share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant exercisable at $0.55 until August 25, 2022. Eric Sprott, through 21764123 Ontario Ltd. maintained his proportionate equity interest in Kootenay.
* Received cash proceeds of $2.5 million during Q4, 2020 from the exercise of 8,478,150 warrants exercised at $0.30.

Strategic Plans Developing for 2021

Columba and Copalito

Significant drilling is planned at both Columba and Copalito. Planning meetings are being held in the next two weeks after which details of these programs will be finalized. An announcement outlining the programs will be issued thereafter.

La Cigarra

Continued geologic modeling will be completed with modeling to date tested to see if mineralization within the deposit may possibly exist within a more constrained area resulting in a higher-grade resource. Upon positive findings, a small drill program will be conducted to confirm the model is predictive (reliable and accurate) after which a decision will be made on if a new resource update is supportable or required. The over-arching objective is to optimize the resource and advance it to a PEA study.

La Negra, Sonora

Examination of the extensive drill data is underway to determine if a resource calculation is warranted. Following a positive outcome, a NI43-101 maiden resource estimate will be prepared on the project.

Cervantes

Once a budget has been approved by the JV committee, details of an exploration program will be provided in a news release. Cervantes is host to gold-copper porphyry type mineralization and has promise for both open pit heap leach gold and a larger gold-copper porphyry deposit.

Other

Introducing the Top 25th Percentile Search

In addition to the extensive drilling in 2020 Kootenay continued its grass roots exploration efforts with the initiation of two programs aimed specifically at the discovery of large silver-base metal deposits in the top 25 percentile of size. One such program is focused in the famous Purcell Basin in southeastern B.C. that is host to billions of ounces of silver in the Coeur D’Alene, Montana Copper-Silver and Sullivan mining districts. The second is focussed on the discovery of Carbonate Replacement Deposits (“CRD”) deposits in northern Mexico which make up some of the biggest and longest producing silver-base metal deposits in Mexico.

Moyie Anticline Program – Southeast B.C.

* This program was stimulated by the alignment of several fortuitous events. Firstly, for the first time in over 50 years a large land package of prospective geology was open and available for staking; secondly the advancement of deep penetrating geophysical methods to see buried ore bodies and Kootenay’s long-term association with the Kennedy Exploration Group and their deep knowledge and understanding in the area has resulted in identifying targets based on geology/mineralization.
* The program was kicked off in 2020 with the acquisition of nearly 35,000 hectares at an up -front cost of less than $60,000. The Company’s next steps will involve detailed geologic mapping and prospecting combined with deep seeing geophysics and then drilling.

CRD Program – Northern Mexico

* CRD’s in Mexico are well known for being some of the biggest and longest-lived silver and base metal producers in the world’s largest silver producing country. In the last quarter of 2020 Kootenay designated a team dedicated to the identification and acquisition of projects with CRD discovery potential. An extensive database has been compiled and priorities identified with numerous prospects visited. This will be an ongoing concentrated effort that will take time but given the target size, the Company believes it is worth the effort.
Kootenay’s technical team will continue to advance our grass roots projects, look for new acquisitions and seek partners to advance the properties we currently own.

Qualified Persons

Aurcana Silver Corp: Resurrecting The Revenue-Virginius Mine (OTCQX:AUNFF)

By Taylor Dart
Seeking Alpha.com
Jan. 07, 2021 8:49 PM ET

Aurcana Silver Corporation (AUNFF)

Summary

* Aurcana was one of the top-performing silver developers last year, up nearly 300% vs. its benchmark which returned 30%.

* The company recently secured a loan to restart its Revenue-Virginius Mine in Colorado, with an expected start date of Q3 2021.

* While the transition from developer to producer typically leads to a significant re-rating, some of this re-rating is now priced in at a market cap of $274 million.

* A rising silver price will lift all miners, but at a valuation of nearly $12.92/oz, I see no reason to chase Aurcana above C$1.15.

It's been an exciting year and a half for Aurcana Silver (OTCQX:AUNFF), given that the company has risen from the dead after years of lifeless performance since the Shafter Mine was placed on care and maintenance in 2013. Outside of Rubicon Minerals, which was decimated at the tail-end of the previous bull market, Aurcana was one of the worst performers, sliding 99% from its 2012 highs. However, a higher silver (SLV) price and a new mine, Revenue-Virginius [RV], has breathed new life into the stock, with Aurcana being one of the top performers last year. However, with a near 700% rise since the March lows, I don't see much of a margin of safety for new investors. Therefore, I see no reason to pay more than C$1.15 for the stock.


(Source: TC2000.com)

As noted above, Aurcana Silver has had a spotty history in the junior mining sector, and few names performed worse in the gruesome 2012-2016 metals bear market. However, the 2018 acquisition of Ouray Silver Mines and its RV Mine in Colorado has led to a significant improvement in sentiment, with Aurcana up over 1200% from its bear market lows. Over the past two years, the company had added new names to its management team, raised a significant amount of capital, and is now getting ready to restart the past-producing mine which originally operated until 1915 when the mill burnt down. Since then, the mine has had a spotty track record and two separate companies investing significantly in the project but not making much headway. Let's take a closer look at the past-producing mine below:


(Source: Company Website)

As pictured above, the RV Mine benefits from significant infrastructure with a new underground mill that was built in 2011. In addition to storage buildings and a tailings storage area, the project also benefits from a crusher and concentrator already in place, allowing Aurcana to restart operations with relatively modest capex. Based on the 2018 Feasibility Study [FS] completed by Ouray Silver Mines, upfront capex was estimated at less than C$45 million, which is very reasonable given that the average small-scale project takes a minimum of US$100 million to head into production. It's also worth noting that the mill at RV has a nameplate capacity of 400 tonnes per day, but the Feasibility Study used a conservative estimate of 267~ tonnes per day. This suggests there's a relatively easy path to increasing annual silver production.

Why Is The Silver Price Still 50% Below Its 1980 High (While Gold Has More Than Doubled)

A lot of investors have been confused as to why silver still sits 50% below its 1980 and 2011 highs, while just about every other asset class on the planet is at or near record levels.

Fortunately, Steve Cope of Silver Viper joined me on the show to discuss how he thinks this will be resolved, and also some of the costly mistakes mining stock investors can avoid.

Silver Bull Announces Independent Proxy Advisory Firms ISS And Glass Lewis Recommendations “For” Both Proposals At Upcoming Special Meeting Of Shareholders

VANCOUVER, BC – (November 30, 2020) – Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (TSX: SVB, OTCQB: SVBL) (“Silver Bull” or the “Company”) is pleased to report that, in respect of its upcoming special meeting of shareholders, both Institutional Shareholder Services (“ISS”) and Glass, Lewis & Co. (“Glass Lewis”), the leading independent proxy advisor firms who provide voting recommendations to institutional investors, have recommended that the Company’s shareholders vote FOR the proposals to increase the number of authorized shares of Silver Bull common stock and to change the Company’s name to MaxMetals Corp. (collectively, the “proposals”).

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT – PLEASE VOTE TODAY

The proxy voting deadline is 11:59 p.m. ET on December 15, 2020.
We encourage you to vote well in advance of the deadline.

In their recommendations to shareholders on voting FOR the increase in the number of authorized shares, both ISS and Glass Lewis agreed with the Company’s board of directors on the need for additional shares to enable the Company to raise additional capital for furthering the development of the Sierra Mojada Project in Mexico and the Beskauga property in Kazakhstan. Glass Lewis further noted that “it would be in shareholders’ best interest to provide the board with flexibility to obtain additional capital—including through participation in private placement transactions—going forward.”

Authorized Share Increase Proposal
By increasing the number of authorized shares of Silver Bull common stock now, the Company will be able to act in a timely manner when the need to raise equity capital arises or when the Company’s board of directors believes it is in the best interests of the Company and shareholders to take action, without the delay and expense that would be required at that time to obtain shareholder approval to increase the authorized shares. Business purposes for which the Company could seek to raise additional capital including furthering the development of the Sierra Mojada project in Mexico and the Beskauga property (and other properties) located in Kazakhstan. Virtually all junior exploration companies like the Company remain as viable companies and conduct their mineral exploration activities by raising funds by issuing shares from time to time. In the absence of an affirmative vote to increase the number of authorized shares of Silver Bull common stock, the Company will have an insufficient number of authorized shares to raise funds to fund general corporate overhead or cover the costs associated with maintaining its interests in the Sierra Mojada project in Mexico or its potential mineral interests in Kazakhstan.

Name Change Proposal
The board of directors of Silver Bull unanimously recommends that Silver Bull shareholders vote FOR both proposals.

The Company’s board of directors believes that the proposed name change from Silver Bull Resources, Inc. to MaxMetals Corp. is appropriate to better describe the Company’s focus and anticipated exploration activities.

Silver Bull Special Meeting of Shareholders
The special meeting of shareholders of Silver Bull is scheduled for 10:00 a.m. PT on Wednesday, December 16, 2020, at the Company’s offices at 777 Dunsmuir Street, Suite 1610, Vancouver, British Columbia.

Additional information concerning the proposals can be found in the definitive proxy statement dated November 6, 2020. An electronic copy of the definitive proxy statement is available on the Company’s website at www.silverbullresources.com , on the Company’s EDGAR profile at www.sec.gov, and on its SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.

How to Vote Your Shares

Kootenay Announces Results from 29 Holes of the First Ever Drill Program at the Copalito Silver-Gold Project, Mexico

VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 27, 2020 /CNW/ - Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSXV: KTN; OTC: KOOYF) (the "Company" or "Kootenay") is pleased to announce results from the first ever drill program (the "Program") completed at the Copalito Silver-Gold Project in Sinaloa, Mexico. A total of 4,153 meters, increased from the originally planned 3,000 meter Program, over 40 drill holes. Reported in this release are holes 5 to 33 with holes 1 to 4 previously announced in July 2020, highlighted by hole BDH-20-004 intercepting 3.2 meters of 1,297 gpt silver and 0.285 gpt gold (see news release dated July 22, 2020).

The objective of the first Program was to drill a number of holes into each of the known vein structures to determine grade, continuity potential and build a prioritized inventory of veins. The Program successfully verified the existence and continuity of mineralized gold and silver veins at the project, where there is no evidence of modern exploration. Results demonstrate several areas having potential to host high grade deposits that will be the focus of follow up drilling.

Results of forty short holes, averaging approximately 100 meters a hole, targeting a range from 50 to 184 meters in depth, confirm that gold and silver mineralization continue at depth. This mineralization is associated with a significant percent of other elements including lead, zinc and copper, which provide an important addition to the precious metals. The best intersections are related to dilation zones, "mineralized shoots", within the veins of the low sulphidation system.

Luis Moya, Chief Exploration Geologist for Kootenay, states "The mineral is related to tabular shaped veins with high-grade bodies or mineralized shoots inside the veins. The location, geometry, trend, and plunge of those bodies is key. Several holes have already hit what we hope are high-grade mineralized bodies. The follow up drill program aided by detailed mapping and structural mapping will help determine continuity, grade and size of these areas."

James McDonald, President and CEO of Kootenay, adds "These holes set the stage for an exciting follow up drill program testing the extension and continuity of the high-grade areas. In addition to silver significant gold values up to 7 gpt have now been hit in drilling along with lead plus zinc of over 13% and copper to 1.2%. As we look forward to results from the remaining 7 holes detailed mapping is underway to efficiently target the high-grade zones in the follow up program."

Highlights of assays completed from holes BDH-20-005 to BDH-20-033 are reported below:

BDH-20-009
* 95.4 gpt silver Equivalent ("AgEq"); 63 gpt silver, 0.15 gpt gold and 0.47% lead + zinc ("Pb+Zn") over 18.0 meters includes:
1,047 gpt AgEq; 936 gpt silver, 0.29 gpt gold and 3.31% Pb+Zn over 1 meter.

BDH-20-015
* 110.60 gpt AgEq over 7.0 meters with 1.2% Pb+Zn, includes:
- 394 AgEq.; 51 gpt silver, 2.28 gpt gold, 6.18 % Pb+Zn over 1.2 meters.

BDH-20-022, with copper mineralization
* 431.43 gpt AgEq; 307 gpt silver, 0.154 gpt gold, 0.15% Pb+Zn and 1.27% Cu over 0.7 meters

BDH-20-025
* 24.8 gpt AgEq over 11.3 meters with 0.15 %Pb+Zn, includes:
- 242 gpt AgEq, 209 gpt silver, 0.196 gpt gold and 0.67 % Pb+Zn over 0.4 meters.

BDH-20-031
* 205.25 gpt AgEq; 45 gpt silver, 0.86 gpt gold 3.46 % Pb+Zn over 1.2 meters.

Drilling Discussion

Drilling tested 7 of 9 known veins along a cumulative strike length of 2,500 meters of an estimated 10,000 meters of vein length. Mineralized vein widths in drill hole varied from less than one meter to 56 meters. The deepest intercept was 123 meters below surface and graded 0.689 gpt gold, 101 gpt silver, and 2.28% lead plus zinc over 2.7 meters including 7.0 gpt gold, 59 gpt silver and 13.55% lead plus zinc over 0.2 meters.

Although there is continuity laterally and to depth, the grade is variable and the structural complexity requires closer holes to delineate the geometry and continuity of high-grade bodies.

Sampling in old mine dumps (Agua Vein) with discarded material, grades of up to 7.2 gpt gold and 303 gpt silver were observed, which shows the presence of mineral areas with better grades. Similar values were intersected in other veins (Pilar vein) with 7.05 gpt gold, 59 gpt silver and 13.55 % lead + zinc.

The presence of lead and zinc sulfides (up to 6.18%) and copper (up to 1.27%) increases the silver equivalent values obtained on the property.

Some of the higher-grade shoots detected with the drill program are related to changes in the direction of the veins that create a dilational open space to host mineralization.

Geologic Description

The project is located in a regional graben NW-SE called the "San Jose Fault" that extends more than 30 kilometers. The veins are hosted in the west border of the graben in the "lower cretaceous aged" volcanic sequence of andesites against a Jurassic-lower cretaceous unit of volcanic-sediment with shales-hornsfel beds.

The quartz-chalcedony veins with crustiform-colloform texture, calcite veins, weak alteration of the host rock, barite and areas of bladed calcite indicate the upper part of the epithermal system. The occurrence of multiples veins and breccias with cross cutting relationships show the evolution of a hydrothermal system, with a long history of multiple events. The mineralization is hosted mainly in the formal tabular shape veins and leaking to areas of stock works in weak permeable rocks.

About Copalito Silver-Gold Project

The Copalito Project is a classic low sulphidation epithermal vein system which has numerous small old workings and no evidence or reports of historic exploration drilling. The Property consists of seven concessions totaling approximately 3,700 hectares and is located 35 kilometers east of McEwen Mining's "El Gallo Mine" complex in Sinaloa State, along the western fringes of the Sierra Madre Occidental in northwestern Mexico. The Copalito Project has good access, topography and infrastructure.

Silver Bull Provides Update On The Sierra Mojada Project

August 31, 2020

Vancouver, British Columbia – Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (OTCQB: SVBL, TSX: SVB) (“Silver Bull”) announces Sociedad Cooperativa de Exploración Minera Mineros Norteños, S.C.L. (“Mineros Norteños”), the group which is illegally blocking the Sierra Mojada Project, has filed an appeal in the recently reopened Mexican courts to try and overturn a favourable ruling for Silver Bull on their lawsuit against the Company filed in 2014.

Silver Bull expects a final ruling on the case, which cannot be appealed by Mineros Norteños if won by Silver Bull, to be handed down from the courts within the next 6 months.

Tim Barry, President, CEO and director of Silver Bull states, “We are extremely disappointed to see Mineros Norteños have filed an appeal against the third favorable ruling the Company has received on the frivolous law suit they filed back in 2014. The last favorable ruling was delivered to us in March of this year, but unfortunately due to the rapid spread of the Corona Virus in Mexico, the court system in Mexico has been shut down until very recently, which has caused a significant delay in potentially settling this case once and for all. Should Mineros Norteños lose this appeal then Silver Bull will win the case outright. We strongly believe the law suit filed by Mineros Norteños is without merit and is largely being driven by their lawyer, who stands to gain a considerable contingency payment if successful, and a small radical group of approximately 10 Mineros Norteños members who do not accurately reflect the sentiment of the much larger Mineros Norteños group. According to our employees who live in the community, the illegal blockade on the Sierra Mojada project is manned by this small group and is an attempt to try and force the Company into making a settlement on a lawsuit that is frivolous. We remain committed to good faith dialogue with the Mineros Norteños group, many of whom have worked for Silver Bull, to find a solution, but to date any proposal put forward by Silver Bull has been rejected, and any counter proposals from Mineros Norteños have been completely unrealistic.

Whilst working on trying to find a settlement at Sierra Mojada, Silver Bull continues its due diligence on the Beskauga Project announced on 17 August 2020. The next step in the due diligence process will be a visit to site when travel safely allows.”

Summary of the law suit filed by Mineros Norteños: Silver Bull has an agreement with Mineros Norteños on two small mineral licences which cover the eastern part of the Sierra Mojada deposit. These licences are subject to a 2% production royalty to Mineros Norteños capped at US$6.875 million (the “Royalty”) should a mine go into production.

Since 2014, Silver Bull has been fighting a law suit by Mineros Norteños seeking payment of the Royalty, including interest at a rate of 6% per annum since August 30, 2004, even though no revenue has been produced from the applicable mining concessions. Mineros Norteños also sought payment of wages to the Mineros Norteños members since August 30, 2004 under this agreement, even though a mineral processing plant was never built and none of the individuals were hired or performed work for Silver Bull under this agreement and Silver Bull did not commit to hiring them. On October 4, 2017, the court ruled that Mineros Norteños was time barred from bringing the case. On October 19, 2017, Mineros Norteños appealed this ruling. On July 31, 2019, the Federal Appeal Court upheld the original ruling. This ruling was subsequently challenged by Mineros Norteños and in March 2020 the Federal Appeals Court upheld the original ruling. Mineros Norteños may challenge the ruling for a final time at the Federal Circuit Court. In an attempt to force Silver Bull into making a settlement, Mineros Norteños has undertaken to illegally block access to the project since September 2019. To ensure the safety of all involved, Silver Bull has elected to halt all operations on the project until a resolution can be found.

The joint venture option with South32 remains in good standing but under a force majeure pause.

South32 Joint Venture Option
In June 2018 Silver Bull signed an agreement with a wholly owned subsidiary of South32 whereby Silver Bull has granted South32 an option to form a 70/30 joint venture with respect to the Sierra Mojada Project. To maintain the option in good standing, South32 must contribute minimum exploration funding of US$10 million ("Initial Funding") during a 4 year option period with minimum aggregate exploration funding of US$3 million, US$6 million and US$8 million to be made by the end of years 1, 2 and 3 of the option period respectively. South32 may exercise its option to subscribe for 70% of the shares of Minera Metalin S.A. De C.V. ("Metalin"), the wholly owned subsidiary of Silver Bull which holds the claims in respect of the Sierra Mojada Project, by contributing US$100 million to Metalin for Project funding, less the amount of the Initial Funding contributed by South32 during the option period. During the period of force majeure the year 2 completion date has been extended by the period of force majeure.

About Silver Bull: Silver Bull is a mineral exploration company whose shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and trade on the OTCQB in the United States, and is based out of Vancouver, Canada. Silver Bull owns the Sierra Mojada Project which is located 150 kilometers north of the city of Torreon in Coahuila, Mexico, and is highly prospective for silver and zinc.

About the Sierra Mojada deposit: Sierra Mojada is an open pittable oxide deposit with a NI43-101 compliant measured and indicated "global" resource of 70.4 million tonnes grading 3.4% zinc and 38.6g/t silver at a $13.50 NSR cutoff giving 5.35 billion pounds of zinc and 87.4 million ounces of silver. Included within the "global" resource is a measured and indicated "high grade zinc zone" of 13.5 million tonnes with an average grade of 11.2% zinc at a 6% cutoff, giving 3.336 billion pounds of zinc, and a measured and indicated "high grade silver zone" of 15.2 million tonnes with an average grade of 114.9g/t silver at a 50g/t cutoff giving 56.3 million ounces of silver. Mineralization remains open in the east, west, and northerly directions. Approximately 60% of the current 3.2 kilometer mineralized body is at or near surface before dipping at around 6 degrees to the east.

Silver Bull Enters Into An Option Agreement To Acquire The Beskauga Copper-Gold Project In Kazakhstan

August 17, 2020

Vancouver, British Columbia – Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (OTCQB: SVBL, TSX: SVB) (“Silver Bull”) is pleased to announce it has entered into an option to purchase agreement with Copperbelt AG (“Copperbelt”), a private mineral exploration company registered in Zug, Switzerland, to acquire a 100% interest in their Beskauga copper-gold project located in North Eastern Kazakhstan.

Highlights of the Agreement
* On execution of the agreement Silver Bull paid Copperbelt US$30,000. An additional US$40,000 will be paid to Copperbelt after due diligence on the Beskauga property is completed to Silver Bull’s satisfaction. Silver Bull will have a 60 day due diligence period which will commence after the Company has been able to access the Beskauga property in a matter that complies with governmental recommendations and advisories with respect to the global COVID-19 pandemic, among other conditions.

* Silver Bull will then have 4 years to conduct exploration on the property. Exploration expenditures on Beskauga and certain other licenses required to keep the option in good standing are US$2 million in year one, US$3 million in year two, US$5 million in year three and US$5 million in year four, for a total exploration spend of US$15 million over four years.

* After completing US$15 million in cumulative exploration expenditures Silver Bull can acquire the Beskauga property for a US$15 million cash payment.

* In addition Copperbelt may receive a bonus payment of up to US$32 million should Silver Bull publish a Bankable Feasibility Study (“BFS”) with a resource of up to 10 million gold equivalent ounces on the main Beskauga prospect and 5 million gold equivalent ounces on an additional prospect. 20% of the bonus is payable 60 days after publishing a BFS, with the remaining 80% payable on the commencement of mine construction. Up to 50% of the bonus is payable in common shares of Silver Bull at Silver Bull’s election.

* Silver Bull will pay a finders fee to a third party upon the satisfaction of certain conditions.

Tim Barry, President, CEO and director of Silver Bull states, “We are extremely pleased to enter into this agreement with Copperbelt. We believe the Beskauga copper-gold Project represents one of the best exploration opportunities in the world. The high quality work that has been completed on the project to date indicates Beskauga is a huge mineralizing system that has considerable upside that has yet to be explored. We will be working closely with our partners from Copperbelt to quickly and efficiently explore these areas. In addition to the exploration potential at Beskauga, the project has excellent infrastructure. Paved road access and, 1100 KVA power lines, heavy rail, and a highly trained workforce all lie within a 10 kilometer radius. As a mining jurisdiction Kazakhstan is fast becoming a “go to” place due to its recently updated mining law and incredible geological prospectivity. In June 2018 the Kazakhstan government implemented a new mining code based on the mining code used in Western Australia. Unlike many Governments around the world today, the Kazakh Government is very supportive of the mining sector, a view which is highlighted by the fact that numerous major mining companies have recently set up an office in the country and acquired exploration licenses. We expect to provide more details about the Beskauga project itself as soon as we complete our due diligence on the project.”

About Kazakhstan

Size: Kazakhstan is the ninth largest country in the world, covering 2,717,300 km2, and has a population of 18.2 million people.

Capital City: The capital city is Nur-Sultan which is located 300 kilometers from the project. Nur-Sultan has a major international airport allowing for easy access and administration of the Beskauga Project.

Mining Law: Kazakhstan adopted a new mining code titled “Code on Surface and Subsoil Use” (the "SSU Code") on 27 December 2017, and became effective on 29 June 2018. The SSU Code is based on the Western Australian model where Kazakhstan moved from a contractual regime to a licensing regime for solid minerals (except for uranium). Coincident with the updated SSU law, the Kazakhstan government also reduced a considerable amount of the administrative burdens for subsoil users.

Tax: Summary of pertinent taxes related to exploration in Kazakhstan are as follows;
* 20% corporate tax
* 12% VAT is refundable for exploration companies
* 4.7% royalty for Copper
* 5% royalty for gold and silver

Geological Prospectivity: Kazakhstan is one of the most prospective countries in the world for a number of metals. According the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Kazakhstan is;
1st in the world for Uranium production (41% of world output)
2nd in the world for chromite production (18% of world output)
4th in the world for titanium production (6% of world output)
10th in the world for copper production

In addition, Kazakhstan has also has significant proven reserves (as yet unmined) of gold, silver, lead, zinc tin, iron ore, nickel, cobalt, and bauxite

The Fraser Institute Annual Survey of Mining Companies in 2017, ranked Kazakhstan 24th best mining jurisdiction in the world.

Sierra Mojada Update
Silver Bull’s Sierra Mojada project remains under an illegal blockade organized by a Cooperative of local Miners called Sociedad Cooperativa de Exploración Minera Mineros Norteños, S.C.L. (“Mineros Norteños”).

Silver Bull has an agreement with Mineros Norteños on two small mineral licences which cover the eastern part of the Sierra Mojada deposit. These licences are subject to a 2% production royalty to Mineros Norteños capped at US$6.875 million (the “Royalty”) should a mine go into production.

On July 31, 2019, the Federal Appeal Court held the original ruling. This ruling was subsequently challenged by Mineros Norteños and in March 2020 the Federal Appeals Court held the original ruling. Mineros Norteños may challenge the ruling for a final time at the Federal Circuit Court. Due to COVID-19 the Mexican court system remains closed and the timing of reopening is uncertain. In an attempt to force Silver Bull into making a settlement, Mineros Norteños has undertaken to illegally block access to the project since September 2019. To ensure the safety of all involved, Silver Bull has elected to halt all operations on the project until a resolution can be found.

Silver Bull remains committed to good faith dialogue with Mineros Norteños, many of whom have worked for Silver Bull, to find a solution that is acceptable to both parties.

The joint venture option with South32 remains in good standing but under a force majeure pause.

KOOTENAY SILVER INTERCEPTS 608 GPT SILVER OVER 5 METERS WITHIN 229 GPT SILVER OVER 22 METERS AT COLUMBA PROJECT, MEXICO

August 13, 2020

Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSXV: KTN, OTC: KOOYF) (the "Company" or "Kootenay") is pleased to announce results from an additional 4 holes from its 7,000 meter drill program, at the Columba high-grade silver project (the "Property") located in Chihuahua State, Mexico.

Among the 4 holes reported in the release, CDH-20-057 to CDH-20-059 tested along the F-Vein. Hole CDH-20-60 intercepted the J and Z Vein system and encountered a well mineralized breccia and quartz vein stockwork zone located approximately 700 meters east from the F-Vein.

Highlights from J and Z Vein system include:

CDH-20-060
* 132 gpt silver over 64 meters including two notable intervals:
* 1,025 gpt silver over 1.0 meters within 226 gpt silver over 9.0 meters.
* 361 gpt silver over 11 meters including 608 gpt silver over 5.0 meters, and 1,160 gpt silver over 1.0 meters all within 229 gpt silver over 22 meters.

Hole CDH-20-060 is about 40 meters deeper and 20 meters along strike from previously announced hole CDH-19-030 (see news release dated December 12, 2019). This Phase I drill hole hosted the following high-grade mineralization:

CDH-19-030
* 200 gpt silver over 25.85 meters which included;
* 415 gpt silver over 11.15 meters, including
* 982 gpt silver over 1.9 meters within 721 gpt silver over 4.07 meters.

The silver mineralization in the J and Z Vein system is related to silicified breccias and thin quartz vein stock works following classic banded quartz vein structures more characteristic of the F-Vein.

Kootenay President & CEO, James McDonald, stated "This area of the J and Z Vein has become very exciting and prospective following this second considerable intercept of high silver grades. Finding silver hosted in breccias and stock works in this area indicates the potential to discover large mineralized zones along shorter strike lengths than typically seen in the veins themselves."

The geometry of the relatively untested J and Z Vein system is not known at this time. More holes are needed to determine the geometry (strike and dip), extent of continuity and size of the zone.

Detailed Drill Results (click on link below to view)

F Vein Results

CDH-20-57 is one of the deeper intercepts along the F-Vein hitting 4.56 meters of quartz vein grading 103gpt silver including. 1.81 meters of 163 gpt silver at a depth of 208 meters from surface. The nearest hole CDH-20-051 is located approximately 57 meters up dip and 60 meters along strike. CDH-20-051 hit 317 gpt silver over 4.36 meter including 769 gpt silver over 1.1 meters in the F Vein and 865 gpt silver over 2 meters in a hanging-wall structure (see news release dated May 26, 2020).

CDH-20-058 hit an old mine working at target depth.

CDH-20-059 hit 4.1 meters of F-Vein at the northwestern most extent of the drill tested area. The F Vein at this location was occupied by massive calcite which did not carry any significant results.

Click to view the plan map ( https://tinyurl.com/yyxdu8hb ), long section ( https://tinyurl.com/yyns4zrb ), and cross sections. ( https://tinyurl.com/yxf3jahg )

Sufficient drilling has been conducted along the F-Vein to establish good continuity for about 700 meters of strike to depths of 230 meters. Drilling is currently focused on the veins not yet tested and will follow up on intercepts encountered in various other veins during the 2019, Phase I drill campaign.

Drilling is ongoing and more results will be released once holes are completed and assays are received, compiled, and interpreted.

KOOTENAY REPORTS HIGH GRADE SILVER INTERCEPTS INCLUDING 601 GPT OVER 1.23 METERS WITHIN 279 GPT OVER 4.08 METERS & 753 GPT OVER 0.95 METERS WITHIN 620 GPT OVER 2 METERS AT COLUMBA PROJECT, MEXICO
July 16, 2020
Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSXV: KTN; OTC: KOOYF) (the “Company” or “Kootenay”) is pleased to report results from an additional 5 drill holes from the high-grade Columba Property (the “Property”) located in Chihuahua State, Mexico. These holes are step outs along strike and to depth from high-grade intercepts previously reported in the Phase-II drill campaign (the “Program”).

Kootenay President and CEO James McDonald stated: “These results show excellent continuity and grade along the F Vein for 700 meters of strike length and depths to 240 meters. Having established at least one well mineralized shoot within the F Vein over a substantial area we will now focus on testing other veins on the Property. Priority areas include the J-Z vein area where last year hole CDH-19-030 returned a 25.85 meter intercept grading 200 gpt silver and included highs of 982 gpt silver over 1.8 meters, 415 gpt silver over 11 meters and 721 gpt silver over 4 meters!”

Mineralization on the F Vein remains open along strike and to depth and continues to be a promising target for further investigation after other veins have been explored. To date the spacing of drill holes along the F Vein has varied from 50 meters to over 200 meters thus more drilling is required.Currently, sufficient drilling of the F Vein has been completed to establish a well mineralized shoot so drilling will move onto the other veins.

Holes CDH-20-052 and CDH-20-053 fill in a 140 meter gap between previous holes CDH-20-046, which reported 1585 gpt silver over 0.6 meters within 553 gpt silver over 2.9 meters, and CDH-19-035 with 494 gpt silver over 1.35 meters.

Highlights from the additional 5 holes include:

CDH-20-052

* 601 gpt silver over 1.23 meters within a wider intercept of 279 gpt silver over 4.08 meters and 199 gpt silver over 7.53 meters within the F Vein.
CDH-20-053

* 753 gpt Ag over 0.95 meters within 620 gpt silver over 2 meters, 496 gpt silver over 3 meters and 116 gpt silver over 34 meters within the F Vein.
* CDH-20-053 is about 53 meters down dip and 15 meters north of CDH-20-052
CDH-20-054

* 319 gpt silver over 1.8 meters within 158 gpt silver over 5 meters within the F Vein.
* CDH-20-054 is 20 meters south of CDH-19-035 and approximately 20 meters further down dip.
CDH-20-055

* Returned two lower grade intervals within the F Vein approximately 100 meters and 125 meters down dip of holes CDH-19-035 and CDH-20-054 respectively.
Hole CDH-20-056 was abandoned due to bad ground about 150 meters before reaching target depth.

From the Silver Bull board at Stockhouse... (TSX: SVB, OTCQB SVBL)

by LondonInvest
July 06, 2020 12:07pm

Hi,
I have been accumulating SVBL for years and have a VERY sizeable position.

South32 being on board is very significant. As for the resource, they already have a NI43-101 with Measured and Indicated being:
Ag - 90.8 Million Oz
Zn - 4.67 Billion Lbs

Assumptions were for $18/oz Ag and $1.00/lb Zn

As the surface resource is oxides recoveries are lower, but they factored in 75% recovery for Ag and 41% for Zn.

This gives following
Ag - 90.8 Million Oz x 0.75 x $18 = $1.22 Bn Ag value
Zn - 4.67 Billion Lbs x 0.41 x $1.00 = $1.92 Bn Zn value
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total known M&I resource is $3.14 Bn with ~60% Zn and ~40% Ag split.

The total market cap of this company is <$20 Million USD. This could easily trade at 10% of resource in ground, $300 Million or a 15x return.

This company is valued as an explorer looking for a resource, not a company with a resource and exploring for the main ore body to make it a bonanza company. It has alot similar to Arizona Mining's Taylor deposit which South32 bought for $1.6 Bn. This is why South32 is involved, looking for another Arizona Mining. They are had been drilling and hitting sulfides honing in on main ore body.

Here is resource IRR at different ore prices:

KOOTENAY SILVER REPORTS PRIORITY TARGETS ON THE CERVANTES PORPHYRY GOLD-COPPER PROJECT IN SONORA, MEXICO

June 25, 2020

Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSXV: KTN; OTC: KOOYF) (the “Company” or “Kootenay”) announces its partner on the Cervantes porphyry gold-copper property in Sonora, Mexico (the “Project”), Aztec Minerals Corp. (“Aztec”), reports final interpretation of a 3-Dimensional IP-Resistivity survey identifying multiple chargeability anomalies over a 5 kilometer (km) long corridor. (view IP chargeability map here) on the Project. https://tinyurl.com/y7je38fu

Numerous IP anomalies are associated with the previously mapped and sampled porphyry corridor (view geological map here https://tinyurl.com/y9c7mynm ) that extends at least 5 km long and up to 2 km wide from the California zone southwest through the Jasper, Estrella, Purisima East and Purisima West targets.

Six porphyry prospects along the corridor exhibit strong porphyry alteration and gold (copper) mineralization (view geochemical map here https://tinyurl.com/y8l24b7b ) within and adjacent to outcropping quartz-feldspar porphyry intrusions and diatreme breccias. The Jacobo target not covered by this 3-D IP survey may add an additional 2 km of length to the porphyry corridor to the southwest. Because the IP anomalies are closely associated with the mapped porphyry style mineralization it is interpreted they may reflect buried sulfides (potentially gold and copper bearing) typical of porphyry-type mineralization.

The 3-D survey encompassed 23.1 line km to cover the Purisima West, Purisima East and Estrella targets as well as an additional 4.5 line km of 2-D IP to tie into the 2-D IP survey conducted in 2016 (view 2016 IP chargeability map here https://tinyurl.com/yct7ovdc ). The benefit of 3-D IP surveys is to provide better definition of the size and shape of conductive or resistive bodies at depth.

KOOTENAY REPORTS PRIORITY TARGETS ON THE CERVANTES PORPHYRY GOLD-COPPER PROJECT IN SONORA, MEXICO

Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSXV: KTN; OTC: KOOYF) (the “Company” or “Kootenay”) announces its partner on the Cervantes project, Aztec Minerals Corp. (“Aztec”), has provided an updated review in anticipation of signing the joint venture agreement and developing the first joint venture exploration program. Aztec reports that an ‘integrated review of the geological, geochemical, and geophysical data on Cervantes has identified 11 targets in total of which 7 are ready for drilling.’

Drilling conducted during 2017 successfully discovered and partially outlined an oxide gold cap to a significant new porphyry gold-copper discovery at the California Zone. Mineralization within the California Zone remains open in all directions. Highlights from the 2017 drilling program include the following intercepts:

* 160m @ 0.77 gpt gold incl 80m @ 1.04 gpt gold, 0.11% copper in 18CER010
* 139m @ 0.71 gpt gold incl 20m @ 2.10 gpt gold, 0.16% copper in 17CER005
* 118m @ 0.63 gpt gold incl 43m @ 1.18 gpt gold, 0.16% copper in 17CER003
* 122m @ 0.60 gpt gold incl 62m @ 0.88 gpt gold, 0.06% copper in 18CER007
* 170m @ 0.42 gpt gold incl 32m @ 0.87 gpt gold, 0.06% copper in 18CER006
Preliminary metallurgical tests on California drill cores show very promising recoveries for heap leach gold. Testing was conducted on drill core samples grouped into 4 separate types of mineralization: Oxide 1, Oxide 2, Mixed Oxide/Sulfide and Sulfide. Results of bottle roll tests showed excellent potential for heap leach gold recovery, as follows:

* 85.1% recovery on 2.0mm material and 94.3% on 75-micron material in sample Oxide 1
* 87.7% recovery on 2.0mm material and 94.2% on 75-micron material in sample Oxide 2
* 77.9% recovery on 2.0mm material and 89.0% on 75-micron material in sample Mixed Oxide/Sulphide
* 51.2% recovery on 2.0mm material and 78.7% on 75-micron material in sample Sulphide
Additional Target Highlights

Purisima East – outcropping gossans, altered and mineralized diatreme breccias and porphyry intrusions marked by a 700m by 600m geochemical soil anomaly in 193 samples that average 0.25 gpt gold, a small historic ‘glory hole’ mine where rock chip sampling returned high-grade mineralization up to 44.6 gpt gold.

Estrella - outcrops of gossan and sulfides in silicified Paleozoic sediments near quartz porphyry dikes with rock chip samples up to 3.9 gpt gold and 2,010ppm copper.

Purisima West - a mirror image of Purisima East in size and type of gossans, altered and mineralized breccias and intrusions in association with gold and copper soil anomalies.

Jasper – 2017 trenching returned skarn/replacement-type mineralization up to 0.52% copper and 0.62 gpt gold over a 92.4 m length.

These holes continue to show good continuity across the area of the F Vein tested to date. They also returned some of the highest grades reported to date with two of the best holes, CDH-20-046 and 047, expanding the tested area toward previously reported CDH-19-035, which encountered 494 gpt silver over 1.35 meters in the F Vein and sits about 140 meters to the southeast of CDH-20-046 and 047.

All widths are drilled widths. At this time, it is estimated true widths will range from 60 to 80% of drilled widths depending on dip of the vein and inclination of the hole. All silver composites rounded to the nearest whole number.

The 2020 drill program at Columba was designed to follow up on the results of the 2019 drill campaign. Numerous priority areas identified and additional structures that remain untested will continue to be the focus of the current program once drilling recommences.

The 2019 drill program totaled 6,853 meters in 41 holes. Detailed results for all drill holes can be viewed by clicking the following link: Columba Drill Results.
