Two target types are currently recognized on the property.

The first target type is high-grade gold and silver hosted in veins in their boiling zones. Some of these targets in Nevada are known to host significant high-grade gold systems. Twin mineralized rhyolite domes on the Silver Bow property contain swarms of banded veins that are mineralized but untested in their boiling zones. A historic hole east of the target domes cut a vein that historically assayed 3.2 meters of 1.46g/t gold and 403.2g/t silver at a depth that may have been close to the vein’s projected boiling zone. Two kilometers to the east, a dump sample that visually appeared to represent boiling zone veining assayed 293 g/t gold, suggesting gold in the boiling zones can also be enriched.

The second target type at Silver Bow is near-surface bulk-tonnage deposits, which are the dominant deposits in Nevada. Silver Bow has at least three of these targets that are currently identified and only slightly explored. The very limited exploration to date yielded encouraging results. For example, a key bulk target is the Breccia Ridge on the north face of the northern of the twin rhyolite flow domes. Anomalous to multigram gold samples were assayed across the entire surface extent of the breccia zone. Rock chip sampling of the Breccia Ridge target returned gold assays ranging from 0.1 g/t gold to 3.7 g/t gold over an extensive area. A second very extensive bulk tonnage target is on the south dome. It is less understood as exposures are limited.

A third bulk tonnage target found 2 kilometers east of the domes may already have been “tagged” by Provenance’s drilling. The two northernmost drill holes contained thick intervals of gold and silver mineralization. Starting at surface, the two holes contained 46.7m of 0.34g/t gold and 10.6g/t silver and 80.6m of 0.246g/t gold and 14.6g/t silver. Another hole intercepted 1.5m of 3.92g/t gold and 58.9g/t silver. This appears to project northeastward into an area that is mostly covered with a thin veneer of colluvium but still has multigram gold and silver bearing outcrops.

Provenance believes the Silver Bow property has exceptional exploration potential. However, the Company recognizes its limited resources are best spent on its two more advanced properties, White Rock and Eldorado. These are already established gold systems with respectively 100 and 242 holes that only need infill and step-out drilling.

With this consideration, Provenance is entertaining potential joint-venture partners for its promising Silver Bow property.

Rauno Perttu, Provenance CEO said, “I think Silver Bow is a discovery waiting to happen, but as a small company we have to put our exploration effort into the immediate opportunity that the Eldorado and White Rock projects allow.”

Provenance will be releasing a NI 43-101 technical report on the Silver Bow property in the coming weeks which will include substantially more detailed information.
