Silver47 Drills 2.48m of 14.95 g/t Gold, 249.50 g/t Silver, 21.97% Zinc, 7.03% Lead, 0.42% Copper at Its Red Mountain Project, Alaska

Silver47 Drills 2.48m of 14.95 g/t Gold, 249.50 g/t Silver, 21.97% Zinc, 7.03% Lead, 0.42% Copper at Its Red Mountain Project, Alaska

Within 24.51m of 486.30 g/t AgEq

Silver47 Exploration Corp. (TSXV: AGA) ("Silver47" or the "Company), is pleased to announce the first results from the 2024 drill program at the Company's wholly-owned flagship Red Mountain Project in Alaska, USA. The results for the first of 6 holes drilled on the property in 2024 indicate strong potential for increased high-grade infill drilling within the Dry Creek resource area. A total of 1,039 metres of drilling was completed in 6 holes at the Dry Creek, West Tundra Flats, and Kiwi prospects combined.

Highlights from hole DC24-106:

  • Drilling cut several massive sulphide horizons within a 24.5m semi-massive mineralized section at the Dry Creek Zone with the highest gold grade interval intercepted to date on the project and remains open
  • From a depth of 128.29m, hole 106 cut 2.48 m of 61.44% ZnEq or 2,938.5 g/t AgEq
    (14.95 g/t gold 249.50 g/t silver, 21.97% zinc, 7.03% lead, 0.42% copper)
  • From a depth of 133.87m, hole 106 cut 0.91 m of 46.74% ZnEq or 2,235 g/t AgEq
    (8.08 g/t gold, 225.00 g/t silver, 21.20% zinc, 6.68% lead, 0.42% copper)
  • From 126.40 m-150.91m a 24.51 m interval graded 10.17% ZnEq or 486.3 g/t AgEq
    (1.99 g/t gold, 55.50 g/t silver, 4.08% zinc 1.32% lead, 0.10% copper)

Mr. Alex Walls, P.Geo., Vice President of Exploration, stated: "We are extremely excited to report these kinds of high-grade polymetallic intercepts in our first drill program on the Project. This drill intercept supports our thesis that Red Mountain Project hosts significant precious metal enrichment in addition to the base metal endowment."

Dry Creek Target Area

The Dry Creek mineralization consists of multiple horizons of semi-massive to massive sulfides within the metavolcanics and metasediments of the Totatlanika Schist which can be traced for 4,500m and dips steeply to the north. The Fosters and Discovery lenses of VMS mineralization make up the central 1,400m of the Dry Creek North Horizon occurring as massive to semi-massive silver-zinc-lead-gold-copper sulfides. The lenses pinch and swell along strike and down-dip, as is typical of VMS deposits. True width intersections are up to 40 m at Fosters where there is evidence of growth faults, showing potential proximity to a VMS feeder zone.

Technical Discussion on Hole DC24-106

Hole DC24-106 was planned to step 60m down-dip from near-surface mineralized intercepts in DC97-03, DC97-04, DC97-07, and DC97-08. Additionally, the hole was intended to test continuity of high-grade mineralization between the 1997 holes and the deep, down-dip intercept in DC18-79. DC24-106 passes through regionally metamorphosed metasediments and metavolcanics of the Totatlanika Schist. The 24.51m mineralized intercept is hosted in a metarhyolite unit, with increasing intervals of semi-massive sulfides from 126.40m, massive sulfides from 128.3m, and finishing with semi-massive sulfides from 143.45 to 150.91m. The sulfides are comprised of aphanitic to coarse pyrite, sphalerite, galena, and chalcopyrite. The mineralized widths are consistent with the historical results, and the 2.48m of 14.95 g/t gold is the highest-grade gold interval drilled to date on the Red Mountain Project.

This successful infill hole in the centre of the Dry Creek resource indicates a strong potential for rapid resource upgrade and growth extending down-dip. The wide spacing of the historical drilling provides ample opportunity to increase the resource, which remains open at depth and along strike.

About the Red Mountain VMS-SEDEX Project - Alaska, USA

Silver47's flagship Red Mountain property covers 633 square kilometres of Alaska State-managed land 100km south of Fairbanks, Alaska. The project is well situated for infrastructure, 30km east of the community of Healy which has power, rail and state highway access to Alaska Route 3, providing a valuable connection to Anchorage and tide water. The Company has an approved permit to conduct advanced exploration, including drilling, across the property.

Red Mountain hosts a NI 43-101 inferred mineral resource estimate of 15.6Mt at 7% ZnEq for 1Mt of ZnEq or 335.7 g/t AgEq for 168.6 Moz AgEq at the Dry Creek (DC) and West Tundra Flats (WTF) resource areas as combined open pit and underground. DC and WTF are the two most advanced mineralized zones at Red Mountain, with at least 20 additional mineralized prospects discovered on the property to date over the 60 kilometres of highly prospective geology.

For more information, see the Red Mountain NI 43-101 technical report titled "Technical Report on the Red Mountain VMS Property, Bonnifield Mining District, Alaska, USA" dated January 12, 2024, prepared by Apex Geoscience Ltd., can be found on the Company's website https://silver47.ca/ and SEDAR+.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control

Quality assurance and quality control (QAQC) protocols for drill core sampling at Red Mountain project followed industry standard practices. Core samples were typically taken at 1.0m intervals in mineralized zones, and 3.0m intervals outside of mineralized zones. Sample lengths were adjusted as necessary so as not to cross lithologic and mineralogic boundaries. QAQC check samples were inserted into the sample stream with one blank, one duplicate (coarse), and one certified reference material (CRM) occurring within every 20 samples. Drill core was cut in half, bagged, sealed and delivered directly to ALS Minerals Fairbanks, Alaska for transport to the ALS Minerals Laboratories labs in North Vancouver, British Columbia. ALS Minerals Laboratories are registered to ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 17025 accreditations for laboratory procedures. Core samples were analyzed at ALS Laboratory facilities in North Vancouver using four-acid digestion with an ICP-MS finish. Gold analysis was by fire assay with atomic absorption finish, or gravimetric finish for over-limit samples. Over-limits for silver, zinc, copper, and lead were analyzed using Ore Grade four-acid digestion. The standards, certified reference materials, were acquired from CDN Resource Laboratories Ltd. of Langley, British Columbia and selected to represent expected mineralization.
