Exploration Potential At El Tigre
The El Tigre silver and gold deposit is related to a series of high-grade epithermal veins controlled by a north-south trending structure cutting across the andesitic and rhyolitic tuffs of the Sierra Madre Volcanic Complex within a broad silver and gold mineralized prophylitic alteration zone developed in the El Tigre Formation that can be upto 150 meters wide. The veins dip steeply to the west and are typically 0.5meter wide but locally can be up to 5 meters in width. The veins, structures and mineralized zones outcrop on surface and have been traced for 5.3kilometers along strike in our brownfield exploration area.
Historical mining and exploration activities focused on a 1.5 kilometer portion of the southern end of the deposits, principally on the El Tigre, Seitz Kelly and Sooy veins. The under explored Caleigh, Benjamin, Protectora and the Fundadora exposed veins continue north for more than 3 kilometers. Silver Tiger has delivered its maiden 43-101 compliant resource estimate and is currently drilling the Sooy, Benjamin, Seitz Kelly and El Tigre high grade quartz silver veins and the emerging high grade black shale horizon that surrounds these veins. Silver Tiger’s exploration at El Tigre has identified four mineralization styles. The first is the epithermal veins, the second is the stock work zone, the third is the black shale zone and the fourth is the sulphide zone.

Silver Tiger has begun underground rehabilitation of the Historic El Tigre Mine. Under ground rehabilitation is being conducted on the Level 7 main portal to access the historic workings on the Sooy, El Tigre and Seitz Kelly veins. This under ground development will allow Silver Tiger to begin drilling from underground drill stations.

Estimation of Resources at El Tigre
After acquiring El Tigre, Silver Tiger drilled 12,500 meters to define the halo of near surface gold mineralization around the mined high-grade veins of the historic El Tigre Mine. This allowed Silver Tiger to deliver a maiden resource estimate for the El Tigre Property to a depth of 150 meters containing indicated resources of 661,000 gold equivalent ounces at0.77 g/t (21 g/t silver and 0.51 g/t gold) and inferred resources of 341,000 gold equivalent ounces at 1.59g/t (88 g/t silver and 0.52 g/t gold). The complete National Instrument 43-101technical report is available on the company’s website below under Mineral Resource Estimate and Technical Report and on SEDAR under the company’s profile.
