Canadian Silver Hunter Inc. (TSXV: AGH.H) ("Canadian Silver Hunter", "CSH" or the "Company") announces that the Company has entered into binding stockpile access agreements (please see press release dated January 06, 2026) on the EC1 and ES1 properties, pursuant to which the Company's subsidiary Cazadores Minerales S.A. de C.V. ("Cazadores") has the exclusive right to access the properties to remove any and all surface stockpiled material for a period of five years in consideration of a payment per tonne of material removed.
The Company is also pleased to announce recent grab sample results taken from the EC2, a separate above ground stockpile location to the previously released assays reported on the EC1 property. The EC2 samples returned positive assay results from this previously unknown area for development and is located within the EC1 property. The EC2 stockpile is similar to the EC1 stockpile and represents an additional polymetallic stockpile located in Michoacan, Mexico (Figure 1). The EC2 location is covered under the stockpile access agreements, and potentially further increases the amount of above ground material available to the Company, as part of the Company's silver recovery plan as announced earlier this year (please see press release dated March 18, 2026). All samples were delivered to the Ensayes Y Representaciones S.A DE CV (ERSA) lab in Miguel Aleman Torreon Coah., Mexico for multi-element and fire assays. The assay results are listed below:
| Sample | Au (g/t | Ag (g/t) | Cu (ppm) |
| EC2-001 | 0.20 | 196.00 | 5,990.00 |
| EC2-002 | 0.15 | 350.00 | 5,850.00 |
| EC2-003 | 4.10 | 4,172.00 | 18,000.00 |
At the EC2 location the stockpile is comprised of material from the nearby mine which consisted of "low sulfidation-type" mineralization in veins cutting andesitic volcanic rock. Mineralization in the veins consists of sulfides of acanthite, chalcopyrite, pyrite, galena, sphalerite and gold.
CSH has determined that there is a reasonably high potential that these stockpiles contain silver, gold, copper, lead and zinc and that reprocessing of these stockpiles could offer the Company an opportunity to potentially unlock substantial metal value from these stockpiles.
The EC2 sampling was performed by taking vertical cuts of 1 m along various parts of the muck pile, located at UTM 0271886E, 2063972N. Sampling was done directly by taking the material and placing it into a sample bag which was then tagged and tied up. Grab samples are selective in nature, are not representative of the overall mineralization, and should not be relied upon as indicative of average grades or the continuity of mineralization across the property.
Sampling and QA/QC Procedures
Each sample was dried and then crushed to 70% passing -2mm and a representative 1kg split was taken by riffle splitting. The split was then pulverized to 85% passing -75 micron and approximately 150g was bagged and labelled, with the remainder being returned to CSH. Gold analyses were performed by 50g fire assay with an atomic absorption finish (method Man-Tec-002). Silver and copper analyses were performed by 4-acid Aqua Regia total dissolution with ICP-OES finish (method Man-Tec-002) performed at the Ensayes Y Representaciones S.A DE CV (ERSA) lab in Miguel Aleman Torreon Coah., Mexico. ERSA Global is independent of CSH and is an accredited PJLA testing Accreditatión #6474 (ISO/IEC 17025:2005).
