Silver Elephant Reports Assay Results Up To 34 g/t Gallium, 266 g/t Indium At the Pulacayo-Paca Silver Project in Bolivia

Rhea-AI Summary

Silver Elephant Mining Corp. reported significant gallium and indium assay results from its Pulacayo-Paca silver-lead-zinc project in Bolivia. The results, based on 199 core samples from 12 drill holes, revealed substantial occurrences of gallium (up to 34 g/t) and indium (up to 266 g/t), correlated with high zinc levels. The assay was conducted by ALS Laboratory. The Pulacayo-Paca project has a total indicated resource of 106.7 million ounces of silver, 1.4 billion pounds of zinc, and 690 million pounds of lead. These elements could potentially enhance the value of the final concentrate produced from mining and processing activities.

Positive

• Significant gallium and indium occurrences with values up to 34 g/t and 266 g/t respectively.
• Assay results from 199 core samples over 12 drill holes indicate a strong correlation with high zinc levels.
• Pulacayo-Paca project's total indicated resources include 106.7 million ounces of silver, 1.4 billion pounds of zinc, and 690 million pounds of lead.

Negative

• Initial discovery test only included selected intervals, possibly omitting broader resource data.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 2, 2024) - Silver Elephant Mining Corp. (TSX: ELEF) (OTC Pink: SILEF) (FSE: 1P2) ("Silver Elephant" or the "Company") is pleased to report gallium and indium assay results from the selected drill core at its flagship Pulacayo-Paca silver-lead-zinc project ("Pulacayo-Paca Project") in Potosi department, Bolivia.

The results show extensive occurrences of gallium and indium in the assayed samples over a strike-length of approximately 750 meters that appear to be correlated to zinc. The Company is highly encouraged by the gallium and indium results and will continue to evaluate this potential. These elements could add significant value to any final concentrate produced from mining and processing activities.

A total of 199 core samples from 12 diamond drill holes were collected from the Pulacayo-Paca project and submitted to ALS Laboratory in Bolivia to assay for gallium and indium. The samples were selected because of their proximity to drill holes PUD 028, PUD 029, PUD 030 and PUD 031, whose samples were assayed by the previous operator for gallium and indium. Results from those drill holes included 99 meters of 27.8 g/t gallium and 9.7 g/t indium. (refer to Company News Release dated May 21, 2024).

The drill holes reported in the following tables were previously assayed for silver, lead and zinc only. It should be noted that only selected intervals were assayed for gallium and indium in this initial discovery test.

*Combined Indicated Mineral Resources includes Pulacayo pit-constrained and out-of-pit plus only Paca pit-constrained resources. Oxide resources use a 50 g/t Ag cutoff. Sulfide resources use a 100 g/t Ag Eq cutoff. Ag Eq = Silver Equivalent (Recovered) = (Ag g/t*89.2%)+((Pb%*(US$0.95/lb. Pb/14.583 Troy oz./lb./US$17 per Troy oz. Ag)*(10,000*91.9%))+((Zn%*(US$1.16/lb. Zn/14.583 Troy oz./lb./US$17 per Troy oz. Ag)*(10,000*82.9%)). Sulphide zone metal recoveries of 89.2% for Ag, 91.9% for Pb, and 82.9% for Zn were used in the Silver Equivalent (Recovered) equation and reflect metallurgical testing results disclosed previously for the Pulacayo Deposit. Matthew Harrington P. Geo., Michael Cullen, P. Geo. and Osvaldo Arce, P. Geo are the independent Qualified Persons for the mineral resource estimate ("N.I. 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate Technical Report for the Pulacayo Project Effectve Date October 13, 2020"). They have verified all data and the QA/QC methodology. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

QA/QC

An industry standard Quality Assurance/Quality Control program was used during the various drill campaigns. All core and other samples were split with half being bagged, labelled and shipped directly to the laboratory. The other 50% split is retained in a secure facility. Both standards and blanks were inserted at regular intervals within each sample batch prior to shipment to the laboratory. These comprised 3-5% (depending on the phase of the drill campaign) of analyzed material. For further details, the reader is referred to the N.I. 43-101 cited above.
