Endeavour Silver Corp. ("Endeavour" or the "Company") (TSX: EDR, NYSE: EXK) is pleased to report positive drill results from its exploration program at the Bolañitos Mine in Guanajuato State, Mexico. The 20242025 program focused on one key area, drilling the La Luz vein. Surface drilling intersected high-grade gold and silver mineralization and provides opportunities to replace reserves, increase resources and extend mine life.

"For more than 17 years, our exploration success has been integral to the ongoing operations at Bolañitos," said Dan Dickson, Chief Executive Officer. "The latest results highlight our focus on efficient, cost-effective exploration, which continues to extend the mine's life."

Drilling Context

In the last quarter of 2024, a surface diamond drilling program began in the north extension of the La Luz vein, in the area of the San Bernabé Adit and San Rafael Shaft, an area within 500 metres from the Asunción mine, exploited in previous years by the Company.

To date, eight drill holes totaling 2,000 metres has outlined high-grade mineralization over 100 metres in length to a depth of 200 metres. The area remains open to the south and to depth. Drilling will continue in the area for the first half of 2025.
