Silver Dollar Extends Curlew Vein Strike Length to 700 Metres with Near Surface Intercepts at Ranger-Page

Silver Dollar Extends Curlew Vein Strike Length to 700 Metres with Near Surface Intercepts at Ranger-Page

Previously reported intercept of 162 g/t Ag, 15.5% Pb and 4.1% Zn over 3 metres interpreted to be the extension of the Curlew Vein from the Blackhawk Mine

Silver Dollar Resources Inc. (CSE: SLV) (OTCQX: SLVDF) (FSE: 4YW) ("Silver Dollar" or the "Company") is pleased to report geologic modeling results correlating to the recently reported near-surface drilling discoveries at the Ranger-Page Project located in northern Idaho's prolific Coeur d'Alene Mining District.

Curlew Vein Extension

Geologic modeling of Silver Dollar's phase-1 exploration drilling results indicate that the Curlew Vein extends east from the Blackhawk Mine into the vicinity of the Wyoming Complex (Figure 1). The structural complexity of the area was likely the reason the Wyoming Complex proved to be a challenge for past producers on the property. Phase-1 drilling discovered mineralization in the footwall of the 96 Fault, which was the primary structure worked at the Wyoming Complex. Silver Dollar believes this footwall mineralization is the Curlew Vein and demonstrated its continuity between the Wyoming Complex and the Blackhawk Mine during Phase-1 exploration drilling (Figure 2).

The planning of near-term exploration activities is ongoing and includes:

Blackhawk (Curlew Vein)

Drill planning is underway to expand the Curlew Vein along strike, up and down dip of the known extent of the Blackhawk Mine. Upper Curlew exploration is relatively inexpensive and can be done from drill pads requiring minimal effort to establish. Further success exploring the uppermost Curlew Vein could justify deep exploration below the Blackhawk mine, which can be done via deep surface drilling programs, or underground drill pad development. The next phase of drilling should focus on expanding mineral continuity between the Phase-1 drilling (Figure-2) and the Blackhawk mine to the west.

West Buckeye

The West Buckeye target is a prominent polarization anomaly identified during the ground IP survey completed in 2022 (Figure 3). The anomaly is significant because it has a 260-metre dip extension, and the same polarization and resistivity response as the Curlew Vein discovery between the Blackhawk Mine and the Wyoming Complex. To validate West Buckeye for drilling, Silver Dollar plans to complete a geochemical survey over the anomaly, update geologic mapping and develop a budget to drill the target. West Buckeye exploration efforts can begin later this spring when the snow has melted from the target area and access is re-established.

Crown Point

Phase-1 Exploration drilling at Crown Point extended mineralization west of the historic mine workings by 100 metres (See news release of March 11, 2025). Geologic modeling, drilling, and trenching results indicate there are up to three veins present at Crown Point (Crown Point 1, 2 and 3 Veins) (Figure 4). Phase-1 drilling identified two of the three veins at Crown Point. To drill the third vein (Crown Point 3), a drilling platform to the south would be necessary. Exploration planning at Crown Point will focus on expanding the Crown Point veins down dip to the west, where the mineralization remains open for exploration drilling.

Omega and 85 Veins

The Omega and 85 Veins sit in the footwall of the Tony Vein, which was the primary ore host for the Page Mine. The Omega and 85 Veins were discovered below the 2,770 level of the Page Mine, and the up-dip extension of the veins have not been properly explored. Ongoing geologic modeling is expected to improve the vein projections of the Omega and 85 Veins, allowing Silver Dollar to prospect for the surface expression of the veins. If exploration work on this target is promising, Silver Dollar will include the Omega and 85 Veins in future exploration drill planning.

"Geologic modeling is providing a clearer understanding of our Phase-1 exploration drilling results at Ranger-Page and how they fit within the broader scope of the project," said Greg Lytle, president of Silver Dollar. "We are focused on carefully evaluating our targets to scale the project through continued success at the drill bit and delivering the best possible returns for our shareholders."

About the Ranger-Page Project

Located in a world-class silver district, the Ranger-Page land package covers six historic mines and is ideally situated near Interstate 90 with year-round access to power, water, local infrastructure and a workforce in the Silver Valley skilled in exploration and mining. The primary target areas are up and down plunge from historic underground mining, along strike where ground IP surveys have identified anomalies, and where surface trenching identified near surface mineralization. Additional exploration targets have also been identified away from historic mine infrastructure, using soil geochemical data, mapping, and ground IP survey data.

Overview

Eric Sprott is a billionaire investor who has committed a major portion of his investments to the mining industry. This amounts to around $200 to $300 million of his wealth. In 2019, Sprott announced that he prefers to invest in junior mining companies as opposed to major mining companies given their potential for making new discoveries and higher growth.

As investors seek entrance into the mining industry, they will likely find Mr. Sprott’s recent investments to be of particular interest given his successful track record. Coattail investing is an increasingly popular and simple investment strategy in which an investor mimics the investments of a renowned investor like Eric Sprott.

Editor's Picks: Silver Price Hits 13 Year High, Gold Takes a Breather

Gold was on the decline this week, closing just below US$3,370 per ounce, after tensions in the Middle East pushed it past the US$3,430 level toward the end of last week.

All eyes were on the US Federal Reserve, which in a widely expected move left interest rates unchanged on Wednesday (June 18) following its two day meeting. The central bank cut rates in December 2024, but has kept them steady for its last four gatherings.

US President Donald Trump wasn't pleased, calling Powell "too late" in a Thursday (June 19) post on Truth Social. While speculation that Trump will fire Powell has died down, the president did recently say he intends to announce his next pick for the Fed leader position "very soon."

10 Silver ETFs for Every Investing Style in 2025

Investors looking for exposure to the silver price and silver-mining companies should consider silver exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Spurred by moves in the gold market, safe-haven buying as well as increasing demand from industrial sectors, silver saw strong price movements in the first half of 2025, breaching US$37 per ounce for the first time since 2011.

While silver has often been seen as a more approachable precious metal owing to its lower per ounce price, its performance has lagged gains seen in the gold price over the past few years. However, silver stole some of the spotlight in the second quarter of 2025 as it saw significant gains on the back of geopolitical tension and economic uncertainty from the US trade and tariff policy.

Silver Price Surges to US$37, Highest Value Since May 2011

After being overshadowed by gold early in the year, silver has been in the spotlight in recent weeks.

The white metal broke through the US$37 per ounce mark on Tuesday (June 17) for the first time since May 2011.

Recent economic and geopolitical events have raised analysts’ expectations of a September rate cut from the US Federal Reserve, helping to fuel safe-haven buying of silver and gold.
