Silver Range Stakes Two Projects In Arizona And Provides Corporate Update

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / June 22, 2023 / Silver Range Resources Ltd. (TSXV:SNG) ("Silver Range" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on exploration work in Arizona, partner activity and property option developments.

In May, Silver Range staked and conducted preliminary exploration on two targets identified by reconnaissance work in Arizona.

Chloride Property

The Chloride Property is located in Mohave County near the town of Chloride in the Wallapai Mining District. It covers the northwestern extension of the Tennessee Mine, one of the two principal mines in the district. Initial grab sampling by Silver Range returned analyses up to 18.75 g/t Au, 764 g/t Ag, 11.6% Zn and 2.35% Pb from dump material at the Elkhart, Dardanelles and Argyll Mines. These small past producers are found along a 1500 m long structural extension of the Tennessee Mine vein system. At Chloride, a total of 27 samples were collected, 4 of which returned assays greater than 5 g/t Au. Silver Range intends to conduct detailed geological mapping, grid soil sampling and geophysical surveys to identify targets for subsequent trenching and drill testing.

Crosby Property

The Crosby Property is located 67 km west of Prescott in Yavapai County. The property covers the small past producing Crosby Mine, an underground mining operation which saw intermittent production from 1906 to 1931. Known historical development on the property includes a 107 m inclined shaft and systematic development along strike for 100 m to a depth of 50 m. A 10-stamp mill was operated on the property prior to 1931. Preliminary sampling by Silver Range returned dump and chip samples assaying up to 22.8 g/t Au with 5 of 27 samples returning assays greater than 5 g/t Au. Silver Range intends to conduct geochemical and geophysical surveys on the property to locate drill & trenching targets.

South Kitikmeot Gold Property drill results

Silver Range optioned the South Kitikmeot Gold Property ("SKGP") to Viridis Mining & Minerals Limited ("Varidis") in October 2021 (Silver Range News Release dated August 19, 2021). On June 6, 2023, Viridis released results from a 7 hole / 764 m initial drill program at the Esker Lake Property, one of the seven projects in the SKGP . (Viridis Mining & Metals News Release dated June 6, 2023). Viridis reported that 5 of the 7 holes intersected gold greater than 1 g/t Au. The seven properties comprising the SKGP cover the known significant gold occurrences between the Lupin Gold Mine at Contwoyto Lake and the Goose Lake Project, currently under development by B2 Gold Corp.

Option activity

On May 26, Silver Range concluded two amendments to letters of intent ("LOIs") signed with Green Gold LLC ("Green Gold") granting Green Gold options on the East Goldfield and Tule Canyon Properties (Silver Range News Release dated April 28, 2023). These amendments extend the deadline to conclude definitive agreements on both properties to September 30, 2023 in return for consideration of U$20,000 (East Goldfield) and U$11,000 (Tule Canyon), payable by June 30, 2023. All other terms of the original LOIs remain in effect.

Samples were secured and transported under chain of custody to ALS Minerals facilities in Reno, Nevada for sample preparation and analysis. At the laboratory, samples were crushed to progressively to < 2 mm (ALS Code CR-32) and a 1 kg aliquot was pulverized to 85% passing a 75 mm mesh (Code PUL-32). A 50 g subsample was then fire assayed with an atomic absorption finish (Code Au-AA26). In addition, induced coupled plasma analysis for 35 elements was performed on the samples (Code ME-ICP41). Overlimit silver analyses were re-analyzed using a gravimetric method (Code Ag-OG46). Overlimit copper, zinc and lead analyses were re-analyzed using aqua regia digestion and ICP-MS employing procedures appropriate to high grade samples (ALS Codes Cu-OG46, Zn-OG46 and Pb-OG46).

Technical information in this news release pertaining to the Chloride and Crosby Properties has been approved by Mike Power, M.Sc., CPG, President and CEO of Silver Range Resources Ltd. and a Qualified Person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101.
