Mining Research Analyst

The drilling results from Silvercorp's LMW mine reveal exceptionally high-grade intercepts that significantly enhance the mine's economic potential. The standout intersection of 34% gold and 4.45% copper over 0.82 meters, combined with impressive silver grades up to 2,705 g/t over 18.02 meters, indicates substantial mineralization expansion. The discovery of new vein structures, particularly the low-angle gold-copper vein LM28 and the high-grade silver-lead veins in the W Zone, materially expands the resource potential. These results suggest potential upside to future production volumes and grades, which could positively impact the company's revenue and profitability outlook.

Geological Expert

The intersection of multiple high-grade vein systems across different zones demonstrates the structural complexity and richness of the deposit. The discovery of subparallel vein structures, such as LM54_1 and LM41E2, indicates the potential for additional mineralized systems beyond the known resource. The combination of high-grade gold-copper and silver-lead-zinc mineralization suggests a complex metallogenic system with multiple mineralizing events. The extensive drilling program, covering 78,980 meters in 678 holes, provides robust data density for resource modeling and mine planning, substantially derisking future development plans.

Technical Analyst

The exploration results significantly strengthen Silvercorp's asset base at LMW. The drilling program's success in identifying new mineralized zones and extending known veins provides clear catalysts for potential resource expansion and mine life extension. The high-grade nature of the intercepts, particularly in precious and base metals, suggests potential for improved economics through higher-grade material in future mining sequences. The extensive tunneling program of 15,694 meters complements the drilling data and provides improved access for future mining operations, indicating strong operational execution.

Assay results for 548 holes have been received and select results are presented in Table 1 below.

This drilling program has been focused on four target areas: 1) expansion drilling of high-grade Ag-Pb and low angle Au-Ag-Cu veins west of the LMW mine (W Zone) at elevations above 900 m to surface (1,250 m); 2) expansion drilling of low angle Au and Ag-Au-Cu veins LM50, LM26, and LM21 (Au Zone); 3) drilling to extend the high-grade LM41E series veins at the eastern side of LMW (E Zone); and 4) infill drilling of Ag-Pb-Zn veins at the Production Zone (P Zone).

1)      Expansion drilling of high-grade Ag-Pb and low angle Au-Ag-Cu veins at the W Zone

Drilling at the W Zone significantly expanded the low angle and high-grade Ag-Au-Cu vein LM28 (Table 1). This quartz-pyrite-chalcopyrite vein strikes between 240 and 250 degrees dipping to the north with a dip angle between 10 and 30 degrees and then to 70 degrees at elevations below 900m El. The drilling and tunneling have defined around 600 m along strike and 500 m down dip for LM28, at elevations between 1,120 m and 750 m. The high-grade assay results include 34.13 g/t Au and 4.45% Cu over 0.82 m from hole ZKX1019, and 5.28 g/t Au and 20.28% Cu over a 0.59 m interval of LM28 from hole ZKX13664.  Tunneling at 988 m El to 1040 m El has demonstrated continuity of LM28.

At the W Zone, drilling also intersected high-grade Ag-Pb veins W1, W18 series and W6 series at elevations between 1,110 m and 800 m, with extension over 800 m along strike.  The high-grade Ag-Pb assay results include 2,705 g/t Ag and 0.67% Pb over 18.02 m (true thickness of 10.02 m) of vein W18W from hole ZKX1613, 1,367 g/t Ag, 8.66% Pb, 1.12% Zn and 0.32% Cu over a 1.80 m interval of vein W6E from hole ZKX13828, and 1,346 g/t Ag, 5.35% Pb, 0.82% Zn and 0.29% Cu over a 3.06 m interval of vein W1 from hole ZKX0825. The drifts from surface at 1040 m and 988 m elevations have traced the high-grade Ag-Pb veins W1, and W18 series for up to 360 m in length in tunnels.  Stopes at levels 1040, 988, 880 and 850 have been developed to mine the high-grade vein W18W.

  • Hole ZKX01X102 intersected 23.6 g/t Au, 261 g/t Ag and 0.29% Pb, and 0.14% Zn over a 0.95 m interval of vein LM50 at the 795 m elevation
  • Hole ZKX00X034 intersected 1.07 g/t Au, 1,542 g/t Ag, 1.80% Pb, 0.72% Zn, 1.15% Cu over a 2.91 m interval of vein LM26 at the 637 m elevation

3)      Infill drilling of high-grade Ag-Pb veins at the E Zone 

At the east side of the resource area (E Zone), infill drilling continued to intersect the high-grade Ag-Pb LM41E series veins, including LM41E and LM41E1. In particular, a new high-grade vein LM41E2 has been discovered subparallel to and around 105 m to the east of LM41E1 at an elevation between 1050 and 950 m. In addition to the LM41E series veins, the drilling program also intersected the northeast part of the LM17 series, including LM17, LM17W1 and LM17W2 at higher elevations between 1,060 and 830 m.

• High-grade Ag-Pb highlights from the E Zone:
  • Hole ZKX10756 intersected 1,582 g/t Ag, 4.36% Pb, 0.51% Zn, 1.66 g/t Au, and 0.15% Cu over a 0.76 m interval of vein LM41E at the 571 m elevation
  • Hole ZKX1754 intersected 807 g/t Ag, 9.80% Pb, and 0.47% Zn over a 1.12 m interval of vein LM41E2 at the 952 m elevation, and

4)      Infill drilling of Ag-Pb-Zn veins at the P Zone

Most holes in this period targeted blocks of known Ag-Pb-Zn veins at the P Zone, including blocks that were previously missed due to limited drilling or tunneling, changes in the strikes and dips, and/or pinch-swelling of the pay-zones in the veins. The high-grade intercepts are mainly associated with the southwest-striking LM7 series, LM12 series and LM17 series of veins, and the northwest-striking LM14, LM19 series and LM20 series, LM30 and LM32E series.

• High-grade intercepts of Ag-Pb-Zn mineralization at the P Zone:
  • Hole ZKX11241 intersected 4,738 g/t Ag, 2.12% Pb, 1.33% Zn, 0.19 g/t Au, and 0.64% Cu over a 1.80 m interval of vein LM32E at the 637 m elevation
  • Hole ZKX07X110 intersected 1,633 g/t Ag, 2.11% Pb, 0.21% Zn, 0.21 g/t Au, and 0.12% Cu over a 4.99 m interval of vein LM12_1 at the 646 m elevation
  • Hole ZKX03X141 intersected 1,834 g/t Ag, 4.96% Pb, 0.96% Zn, 0.18 g/t Au, and 0.10% Cu over a 0.79 m interval of vein LM12E at the 665 m elevation

5)      Tunneling Programs at the LMW Mine      

A total of 15,694 m of exploration tunnels were developed at the LMW mine during this period. The exploration tunneling, comprised of drifting, cross-cutting and raising, was driven along and across major mineralized vein structures to upgrade the drill-defined mineral resources, and to test for new parallel and splay structures.

Quality Control

Drill cores are NQ size. Drill core samples, limited by apparent mineralization contacts or shear/alteration contacts, were split into halves by sawing. The half cores are stored in the Company's core shacks for future reference and checks, and the other half core samples are shipped in securely sealed bags to the Chengde Huakan 514 Geology and Minerals Test and Research Institute in Chengde, Hebei Province, China, 226 km northeast of Beijing, the Zhengzhou Nonferrous Exploration Institute Lab in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, China, and SGS in Tianjin, China. All three labs are ISO9000 certified analytical labs. For analysis, the sample is dried and crushed to minus 1mm and then split into a 200-300 g subsample which is further pulverized to minus 200 mesh. Two subsamples are prepared from the pulverized sample. One is digested with aqua regia for gold analysis with atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), and the other is digested by two-acid digestion for analysis of silver, lead, zinc and copper with AAS.

Channel samples are collected along sample lines perpendicular to the mineralized vein structure in exploration tunnels. Spacing between sampling lines is typically 5 m along strike. Both the mineralized vein and the altered wall rocks are cut by continuous chisel chipping. Sample length ranges from 0.4 m to more than 1 m, depending on the width of the mineralized vein and the mineralization type. Channel samples are prepared and assayed with AAS at Silvercorp's mine laboratory (Ying Lab) located at the mill complex in Luoning County, Henan Province, China. The Ying lab is officially accredited by the Quality and Technology Monitoring Bureau of Henan Province and is qualified to provide analytical services. The channel samples are dried, crushed and pulverized. A 200 g sample of minus 160 mesh is prepared for assay. A duplicate sample of minus 1mm is made and kept in the laboratory archives. Gold is analysed by fire assay with AAS finish, while silver, lead, zinc and copper are assayed by two-acid digestion with AAS finish.

A routine quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) procedure is adopted to monitor the analytical quality at each lab. Certified reference materials (CRMs), pulp duplicates and blanks are inserted into each batch of lab samples. QA/QC data at the lab are attached to the assay certificates for each batch of samples.

The Company maintains its own comprehensive QA/QC program to ensure best practices in sample preparation and analysis of the exploration samples. Project geologists regularly insert CRM, field duplicates and blanks to each batch of 30 core samples to monitor the sample preparation and analysis procedures at the labs. The analytical quality of the labs is further evaluated with external checks by sending approximately 3-5% of the pulp samples to higher level labs to check for lab bias.  Data from both the Company's and the labs' QA/QC programs are reviewed on a timely basis by project geologists.

Guoliang Ma, P. Geo., Manager of Exploration and Resource of the Company, is the Qualified Person for Silvercorp for the purposes of   National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (''NI 43-101'') and has reviewed and approved the technical information contained in this news release.

CAUTIONARY NOTE TO US INVESTORS

The technical and scientific information contained herein has been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum classification system, which differs significantly from the standards adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Accordingly, the technical and scientific information contained herein, including any estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources, may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies subject to the disclosure requirements of the SEC.  In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this news release uses the terms "measured resources," "indicated resources" and "inferred resources" as defined in accordance with NI 43-101 and the CIM Standards.

Further to recent amendments, mineral property disclosure requirements in the United States (the "U.S. Rules") are governed by subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") which differ from the CIM Standards. As a foreign private issuer that is eligible to file reports with the SEC pursuant to the multi-jurisdictional disclosure system (the "MJDS"), the Company is not required to provide disclosure on its mineral properties under the U.S. Rules and will continue to provide disclosure under NI 43-101 and the CIM Standards. If the Company ceases to be a foreign private issuer or loses its eligibility to file its annual report on Form 40-F pursuant to the MJDS, then the Company will be subject to the U.S. Rules, which differ from the requirements of NI 43-101 and the CIM Standards.

Pursuant to the new U.S. Rules, the SEC recognizes estimates of "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" and "inferred mineral resources." In addition, the definitions of "proven mineral reserves" and "probable mineral reserves" under the U.S. Rules are now "substantially similar" to the corresponding standards under NI 43-101. Mineralization described using these terms has a greater amount of uncertainty as to its existence and feasibility than mineralization that has been characterized as reserves. Accordingly, U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any measured mineral resources, indicated mineral resources, or inferred mineral resources that the Company reports are or will be economically or legally mineable. Further, "inferred mineral resources" have a greater amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. Under Canadian securities laws, estimates of "inferred mineral resources" may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. While the above terms under the U.S. Rules are "substantially similar" to the standards under NI 43-101 and CIM Standards, there are differences in the definitions under the U.S. Rules and CIM Standards. Accordingly, there is no assurance any mineral reserves or mineral resources that the Company may report as "proven mineral reserves", "probable mineral reserves", "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" and "inferred mineral resources" under NI 43-101 would be the same had the Company prepared the reserve or resource estimates under the standards adopted under the U.S. Rules.
