M&I Conversion Program Drilling Continues to Expand and Confirm Continuity of High-Grade Gold and Silver Mineralization in the Shallowest Portion of the M&I Conversion Area

HIGHLIGHTS:

• TXC25-138 returned multiple broad zones of high-grade silver and gold mineralization spanning from 230.4 metres to 241.86 metres down hole, including:
  • 4.24 metres grading 700 grams per tonne (g/t) silver equivalent (AgEq) (Ag/Au ratio 90:1) (378.5 g/t silver (Ag) and 3.57 g/t gold (Au)) from 230 metres down hole, including 0.31 metres grading 3,182 g/t AgEq (1,805.0 g/t Ag and 15.27 g/t Au); and
  • 5.18 metres grading 556 gt/ AgEq (328.2 g/t Ag and 2.53 g/t Au) from 236.68 metres, which included intervals of 3,340 g/t AgEq (1,987 g/t Ag and15.0 g/t Au) over 0.31 metres and 1,714 g/t AgEq (1,037.0 g/t Ag and 7.51 g/t Au) over 0.61 metres respectively.
• There are ten drillholes with pending assays from the M&I Conversion Program, and seven drillholes are pending assays from the Resource Expansion program.
• Modelling of the M&I Conversion Program drillholes is now underway, with an updated mineral resource estimate on track for Q3, 2025.

Blackrock Silver Corp. (TSXV: BRC) (OTCQX: BKRRF) (FSE: AHZ0) ("Blackrock" or the "Company") announces additional high-grade silver and gold drill intercepts from the M&I Conversion Program (as defined herein) at its 100% owned Tonopah West project ("Tonopah West") located in Nye and Esmeralda Counties, Nevada, United States.

The Company is currently in the process of completing its in-fill drilling program at Tonopah West which commenced in mid-July 2024 and consists of 62 drillholes within the shallow southern portion of the Bermuda-Merten vein group ("DPB South") resource area (the "M&I Conversion Area") with a goal to convert up to 1.0-million tonnes of material from inferred mineral resources to measured and indicated mineral resources (the "M&I Conversion Program"). The M&I Conversion Area represents the initial years of production based on the mine plan laid out in the Company's Preliminary Economic Assessment on Tonopah West (see September 4, 2024 news release).

Andrew Pollard, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated: "Additional results from our M&I Conversion Program continue to validate our model, supporting mineral continuity as we track and define the geometry of the high-grade shoots within the vein system. Today's results, coupled with results previously announced from this same program, highlight that broader intercepts are associated with higher-than-average grades which should be beneficial in delineating high-grade tonnes. The broad zones of high-grade mineralization encountered in drillhole TXC-138 are a standout for us, as at a composite of 11.46 metres of 514 g/t AgEq (290 g/t Ag & 2.48 g/t Au), this is thickest (composite) zone we've drilled throughout the district outside of the historic Victor mine. As we await the final assays from the M&I Conversion Program, modelling has begun for our upcoming mineral resource update on Tonopah West, currently on track for Q3, 2025."

As is evident from Table 1, the highest-grade results are associated with thicker intercepts of quartz vein material. This is similar to previous results seen from the M&I Conversion Program where broader intercepts were encountered, such as: TXC24-095 which returned 5.03 metres of 774.5 g/t AgEq (461.5 g/t Ag and 3.47 g/t Au),¹ TXC24-119 which returned 4.69 metres of 714 g/t AgEq (379.0 g/t Ag and 3.72 g/t Au),² and TXC24-122 which cut 5.21 metres of 563 g/t AgEq (3.02 g/t Au and 292 g/t Ag)³ .This combination of high grade and thickness should have a positive impact on the proposed development of the M&I Conversion Area and the scheduled mineral resource update. Modelling of the M&I Conversion Program drillholes has started and an updated mineral resource estimate on Tonopah West is currently scheduled for Q3 2025.

The geometry of the high-grade silver and gold is sizable with high-grade shoots plunging to the northwest within the M&I Conversion Area. These shoots are open to the northwest, east and open down plunge. TXC25-138 shows high-grade shoots have thicker vein intercepts along the axis of the shoot and multiple high-grade intercepts are being returned under the M&I Conversion Program. Allowing for the 3 metres of internal waste, TXC25-138 would have a drill interval of 11.46 metres grading 290.2 g/t Ag and 2.48 g/t Au or 514.3 g/t AgEq. The thickness of this mineralized shoot is approaching those seen in the historic mining at the Victor and Ohio mines where the Victor vein area was 24 metres thick and the Ohio vein area was 15 metres thick⁴.

Drillholes TXC25-133, -134, -135, and TXC25-136 returned silver and gold assays below the cutoff grade for Table 1. The drillholes returned silver equivalent grades ranging between 100 and 144 g/t AgEq with silver values ranging between 6 to 71 g/t and gold values between 0.51 and 1.34 g/t. There are ten drillholes (TXC25-137, -139, -141, -142, and TXC25-146 to -TXC25-151) with pending assays from the M&I Conversion Program. In addition, seven drillholes are pending assays from the Company's exploration drill program that is targeting expansion potential across a one kilometre trend of vein corridor linking the Denver-Paymaster and Bermuda-Merten vein groups and the Northwest step out resource area at Tonopah West (the "Resource Expansion Program") (see February 24, 2025 news release).

Quality Assurance/ Quality Control

All sampling is conducted under the supervision of the Company's project geologists, and a strict chain of custody from the project to the sample preparation facility is implemented and monitored. The RC and core samples are hauled from the project site to a secure and fenced facility in Tonopah, Nevada, where they are loaded on to American Assay Laboratory's (AAL) flat-bed truck and delivered to AAL's facility in Sparks, Nevada. A sample submittal sheet is delivered to AAL personnel who organize and process the sample intervals pursuant to the Company's instructions.

The RC samples are lined out at the lab and logged in to AAL's system. The core samples are cut using core saws and personnel at AAL's facility in Sparks, Nevada according to the Company's instructions delivered with each core hole.

All samples are dried, crushed to 85% passing 10 mesh (2mm) and a 250-gram sub-sample split is collected and pulverized to 200 mesh (74 micron) in a ring and puck pulverizer. Then the pulverized material is digested and analyzed for gold using fire assay fusion and an Induced Coupled Plasma (ICP) finish on a 30-gram assay split (FA-PB30-ICP). Silver is determined using five-acid digestion and ICP analysis (ICP-5AM48). Over limits for gold and silver are determined using a gravimetric finish (GRAVAU30 and GRAVAG30). Data verification of the assay and analytical results are completed to ensure accurate and verifiable results. Blackrock personnel insert a blind prep blank, lab blank or a certified reference material approximately every 15th to 20th sample.
