Endeavour Silver Continues to Intersect High-Grade Mineralization at the Guanacevi Mine including 3.43 g/t Gold and 1,265 g/t Silver for 1,540 g/t Silver Equivalents over 2.2 metres

 Endeavour Silver Corp. (TSX: EDR, NYSE: EXK) ("Endeavour" or the "Company") is pleased to report positive drill results from its ongoing drill program at the Guanacevi Mine in Durango state, Mexico. Drilling continues along the prolific Santa Cruz vein in two areas (view Santa Cruz vein longitudinal section ), with the objective to convert, expand, and discover new resources.

The 2023 drill program has continued to focus on the El Curso - Alondra properties, establishing lateral and vertical extensions of the mineralized zone towards Porvenir Cuatro and continued testing the deep northwest extension of the Porvenir Dos orebody. The exploration and exploitation rights to the El Curso and Alondra properties were obtained in 2019 and 2021, respectively from Ocampo Mining S.A. de CV. and have become an integral contributor to the operation.

"These encouraging drill results expand our knowledge as we continue to push the boundaries of the mineralized horizons along the Santa Cruz vein. Given the widths and grades of the intersections near existing development, this work is expected continue Guanacevi's history of growth and reserve replacement," stated Dan Dickson, Chief Executive Officer. "We've been mining in this area for nearly 20 years, and the prolific Santa Cruz region remains prospective and is expected to contribute to our strong production profile for years to come."

Drilling Context

Within the El Curso concessions, 18 new holes have been completed totaling 3,162 metres. The program targeted two areas. Underground drilling along strike in the Porvenir Cuatro area targeted the southeast edge of and outside mineral resources. Underground drilling to the north end of El Curso (UCM124-127) located proximal to existing development, returned very high intercepts. Most of the holes had grades and widths that are above the resource cut off assumptions and are expected to convert to reserves.

Near Porvenir Dos, on the Alondra concessions, 19 new holes have been completed totalling 5,854 metres. While not currently included in the Company's Mineral Resources, Porvenir Dos is a former underground mine that we closed in 2013. Drilling has returned high grade intercepts and represents another opportunity to grow our resource base. The deposit is extending down dip on the northwest edge of the mineralized horizon. Endeavour plans to continue drilling towards the northwest to test continuity with the objective to access ore from development advancing between the El Curso and Porvenir Dos areas that would eventually be connected.
