Eagle Plains Reports up to 76.30 g/t Gold at Snowstorm Project and Significantly Increases Land Package
Eagle Plains Resources has announced results from its 2024 field program at the 100%-owned Snowstorm Property in British Columbia. The program confirmed high-grade, vein-hosted Au-Ag-Pb mineralization over a 1.7km strike length. Notable findings include Pine Tree vein sample returning 76.30 g/t Au, 56.30 g/t Ag, and 30.30% Pb, and Snowstorm trench sample yielding 2.64 g/t Au, 174.00 g/t Ag, 13.55% Pb. The company has expanded its property package to 2084 ha through additional claim staking. The property, located within the historic Slocan Mining Camp, contains 8 BC Minfile occurrences and shows potential for both high-grade veins and bulk-tonnage mineralization.

Snowstorm Geology and Project History
The Snowstorm Property is located within the historic Slocan Mining Camp where active exploration began in the mid-1860s. The camp and surrounding areas contain 173 past producing mines with reported total production in excess of 1,000,000kg of silver (BCGS General File 1997-02 / Klondike Silver Website). The Snowstorm Property is underlain by 8 BC Minfile occurrences, one of which, the White Eagle (Minfile 082KSW126), is covered by an historical Crown Grant.
Mineralization at the Property is associated with quartz-calcite veins hosted in siliciclastic sediments of the Broadview Formation (Lardeau Group). Veins are closely associated with well-defined property scale thrust faults and are subparallel to cleavage. Results from historic data review and observations from the 2024 program have identified multiple meter-scale subparallel mineralized quartz-carbonate veins.
The 2024 Snowstorm exploration program consisted of a single day of mapping/prospecting and geochemical surveying and was successful in locating historical workings and assessing the reported high-grade nature of the showings. The Snowstorm project has potential for both high-grade veins and bulk-tonnage mineralization. No historical drilling has been reported on the property.
Snowstorm (MinFile 082KSW086):
The Snowstorm occurrence is marked by a series of 26 hand dug trenches dating back to 1930-1931. The trenches were positioned to explore for mineralized quartz float and were successful in exposing a 1.5m wide quartz vein in two locations, approximately ~300m NW of the Silver Sparrow adit. Field crews noted thin, mineralized quartz veins that are discordant to the main Snowstorm vein orientation and warrants further investigation and structural interpretation to determine economic significance. Sample KBSWR004 (grab) was collected from a 1.5m wide quartz vein exposed in a 15m long trench returned 9.87 g/t Ag,
Silver Sparrow (Snowstorm Shaft) (MinFile 082KSW146)
Historical reports indicate a 6.1m inclined shaft into the Silver Sparrow Vein was developed between 1930-1931. The quartz vein is 1.0m wide at surface with historical results reported as
Silver Sparrow (Pine Tree Vein)
The 0.5-1.0m wide Pine Tree quartz vein was discovered in 1988 and is exposed in 3 historical trenches. The vein is interpreted to represent the strike length extension of the Silver Sparrow Vein ~70m to the east. Sample KBSWR012 (grab) returned 2.96 g/t Au, 11.30 g/t Ag and
White Eagle (MinFile 082KSW126)
The White Eagle Showing is covered by active crown grants and was not sampled during the 2024 program. Historical reports indicate up to 7 surface trenches and 2 adits were developed between 1928-1930 exposing 2 mineralized veins hosting sulphide ore shoots up to 0.6m in diameter. Historical sampling reported up to 74.8 g/t (2.2 oz/ton) Au, 1141.7 g/t (33.3 oz/ton) Ag and 33.80 % Pb.
Lakeview Trenches (MinFile 082KSW198)
Discovered in 1988 the Lakeview showing includes 2 small hand dug trenches exposing massive galena-sphalerite-pyrite mineralization hosted in 0.2m wide quartz veins. Rock sample MMSWR003 (float) collected downslope of the trenches returned 3.40 g/t Au, 17.20 g/t Ag,
West Ridge (MinFile 082KSW197)
Historic workings developed between 1928-1930 includes 7 trenches and a 15.2m shaft from the ridgetop and a 150m long adit. The mineralized quartz vein is up to 1.0m wide and hosts pyrite-galena-sphalerite-stibnite-tetrahedrite. Sample MKSWR001 (float) was collected downslope of a historic trench and returned 47.00 g/t Ag and
Juno (MinFile 082KSW197)
The 2024 field work did not include the Juno showings. Developed around 1928 the vein was explored in multiple trenches and an adit. Reported grades include 1.4 g/t Au, 600.0 g/t Ag,
Rock grab samples and float samples are selective samples by nature and as such are not necessarily representative of the mineralization hosted across the property. The above historical results were taken directly from MINFILE descriptions and assessment reports (ARIS) filed with the BC government as well as results from the 2024 exploration program by Eagle Plains. Management cautions that historical results were collected and reported by past operators and have not been verified nor confirmed by a Qualified Person but form a basis for ongoing work on the subject properties. Management cautions that past results or discoveries on proximate land are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved on the subject properties Management cautions that rock grab samples are selective samples by nature and as such are not necessarily representative of the mineralization hosted across the property.
