Silver47 Highlights Expansive High-Grade Gold and Silver System at the Kennedy Project, Nevada

Samples up to 44.5 g/t Gold, 3,037 g/t Silver, and 8.56% Copper

Silver47 Exploration Corp. (TSXV: AGA,OTC:AAGAF) (OTCQB: AAGAF) (‘Silver47’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to provide assay results from a recently completed rock sampling program at its high-grade Kennedy gold-silver Project in Nevada (the ‘Kennedy Project’). Results demonstrate strong prospectivity for high-grade gold and silver mineralization across the under-explored project.

Highlights:

High-Grade Assay Results: Select rock samples returned exceptional grades, including:

21.9 g/t Au, 2,336 g/t Ag, 8.56% Cu (Borlasca Vein)
6.2 g/t Au, 3,037 g/t Ag (Fourth of July Vein)
40.4 g/t Au, 232 g/t Ag (Gold Note Vein)
39.4 g/t Au, 370 g/t Ag (Cricket Vein)
12.7 g/t Au, 305 g/t Ag (Accident Vein)
15.9 g/t Au, 323 g/t Ag (Coyote Vein)
19.5 g/t Au, 273 g/t Ag (Danneburg Vein)
30.4 g/t Au, 148 g/t Ag (Imperial Vein)
3.1 g/t Au, 583 g/t Ag (Trail/Senator Vein)
44.5 g/t Au (Hidden Treasure Vein)

Expanded Land Holdings: Silver47 has staked substantial additional land around the mineralized vein system covering all prospective open ground around the Kennedy district, which is not shown on Figure 1.

Large High-Grade Vein Footprint: Sampling across a 3 km x 2 km area reveals widespread gold and silver mineralization, establishing the Kennedy Project as a high-potential precious metal district in Nevada.

Undrilled Nevada Vein Field: Approximately 22 km of near-surface veins, largely untouched by modern exploration, present a compelling opportunity for significant discoveries.

Robust Exploration Program Planned: A multidisciplinary program including geological mapping, rock chip sampling, ground geophysics, and soil-geochemical surveys is panned for this fall to pinpoint high-priority drill targets.

Red Mountain Project Drill Program Progress: 12 holes have been completed at the Dry Creek and West Tundra Flats deposits where zones of massive, semi-massive and disseminated sulfides have been intersected in step-out and infill holes. Assays are pending and drilling continues.

Galen McNamara, CEO, stated: ‘Our exploration at the Kennedy Project is revealing high-grade gold and silver targets across a 22 km network of largely untested veins. Having acquired this project by claim staking last year, it is also royalty free. These initial results validate our acquisition strategy and position the district as a unique discovery opportunity in Nevada. Concurrently, drilling at our Red Mountain project in Alaska is progressing well, with drilling intersecting promising massive sulfide zones. We look forward to sharing assay results as they become available to showcase the strength of our American project portfolio.’

Defining Widespread High-Grade Gold-Silver Mineralization

A reconnaissance-style prospecting and sampling program was recently completed by Silver47’s exploration team on unpatented mining claims of the Kennedy Project. The purpose of the program was to confirm the presence of high-grade gold-silver-base metal mineralization across eleven targets (Figure 1). Areas of historic surface workings (e.g., blast pits and mine dumps) as well as outcrop, subcrop and float were sampled. In total, 109 samples were collected (see April 24th, 2025 news release for first batch of results). Data from over 40 historic rock samples were also compiled and combined with the new data creating a rock geochemical database of over 150 samples (Figure 1).

Selective sampling across the eleven targets (Figure 1) demonstrates the scale and high-grade potential of vein-systems typical of the Kennedy Project. Highlights from recent and historical sampling include:

Gold Note: Most of the historic gold production in the Kennedy district was from the Gold Note mine. The mine was centered on a series of high-angle, broadly east-west striking quartz veins hosted in volcanic and sedimentary rocks and traced for over 350 m. Waste material from the mine has been stacked in dumps near the main Union and No. 2 adits (Figure 1). Sampling of these dumps returned grades up to 40.4 g/t Au with 232 g/t Ag and 11.1 g/t Au with 1,020 g/t Ag (Table 1) and the 14 new and compiled samples average 7.9 g/t Au with 193 g/t Ag. These results agree with historic mine grades which were reportedly as high as 15.5 g/t Au with 311 g/t Ag¹.

Borlasca: The east-west trending Borlasca target comprises a series of northwest to west striking structures centered approximately 900 m east of the Gold Note mine. Veins and oxidized vein-breccias are hosted in porphyritic rhyolite associated with strong silicification. Samples of dump and outcrop from across the three main Borlasca veins have returned up to 21.9 g/t Au with 2,336 g/t Ag with 8.56% Cu. The strong copper mineralization in many of the Borlasca samples suggest strong prospectivity for copper mineralization across this part of the Kennedy district.

Coyote: The northwest-striking Coyote vein system is centered approximately 600 m north of the Gold Note mine. Veins and quartz-cemented breccias of the Coyote target are hosted primarily in granite and quartz-phyric rhyolite. Samples of dump material, subcrop and float from the main Coyote target returned grades up to 15.9 g/t Au with 323 g/t Ag and 2.9 g/t Au with 759 g/t Ag (Table 1). Sampling 600 m along strike to the northwest returned 5.7 g/t Au with 20.8 g/t Ag (sample 350121, Table 1).

Cricket-Accident trend: The north-northwest striking Cricket target is centered approximately 2.2 km northeast of the Gold Note mine (Figure 1). The vein-system is hosted near a contact between andesite and monzonite and consists of brecciated and drusy quartz veins and veinlets. The Cricket vein has been sampled (outcrop and dumps) for over 200 m along strike with grades up to 39.4 g/t Au and 370 g/t Ag (15 samples average 12.3 g/t Au and 132 g/t Ag). High-grade gold and silver mineralization at Cricket is locally associated with strong lead and antimony mineralization (up to 3.0% Pb and 3,540 ppm Sb). The Accident vein, 300 m along strike to the south of Cricket, is interpreted to be part of the same 800 m north-trending vein-system. Sampling at Accident returned up to 12.7 g/t Au with 305 g/t Ag (Table 1). Further sampling along trend north of Cricket towards the historic Wall Street mine and along trend south of Accident is warranted.

Fourth of July: The Fourth of July vein sets are hosted in strongly oxidized granite/monzonite and comprise quartz-rich breccias and veins. Sampling of outcrop, subcrop, dump and float along a 200 m trend at Fourth of July returned up to 6.2 g/t Au with 3,037 g/t Ag and 9.6 g/t Au with 2,360 g/t Ag. The veins may represent a possible southern offset of the Cricket-Accident trend of veins and supports the strong prospectivity for high-grade gold-silver mineralization in broadly north-trending structural corridors.

Trail-Imperial trend: The historic Trail/Senator mine represents the southern extent of the broadly north-trending Trail-Imperial corridor. The high-grade Imperial Mine represents the northern extent of the 1.0 km long corridor. The Trail/Senator target comprises quartz-rich veins and breccias with associated wall rock hosted quartz-stringers and veinlets. Sampling of dumps and outcrop returned up to 8.61 g/t Au with 133 g/t Ag and 6.4 g/t Au with 43.1 g/t Ag. At Imperial, primarily hosted in quartz monzonite sampling returned up to 30.4 g/t Au with 148 g/t Ag and 16.8 g/t Au with 17.2 g/t Ag. Similar to the parallel Cricket-Accident trend, the Trail-Imperial corridor demonstrated strong prospectivity for high-grade gold and silver mineralization along north-trending structural corridors.

Hidden Treasure-Chromo trend: The Hidden Treasure set of mineralized veins are centered 800 m north of the Gold Note mine and hosted primarily in volcanics and breccias near the contact with granite. Together with the Chromo target (Figure 1), 300 m along strike to the north, the mineralized Hidden Treasure-Chromo trend comprises high-grade gold-bearing breccias with samples up to 44.5 g/t Au and 27.6 g/t Au (7 samples at Hidden Treasure average 15.6 g/t Au and 31 g/t Ag).

Danneburg: The Danneburg group of mineralized vein occurrences, covering a 200 by 150 m area, is centered approximately 3.0 km northeast of the Gold Note mine. Drusy and oxidized veins hosted in silicified and oxidized granite returned up 19.5 g/t Au with 273 g/t Ag and 3.8 g/t Au with 554 g/t Ag in dump material. Further work is required at Danneburg to define the strike-extent of the dominant north- and northwest-striking vein-sets.

Based on the results from the preliminary sampling and prospecting program, an additional 4,000 acres of unpatented mining claims have been acquired through staking. The strategic claims cover all prospective open ground around the Kennedy district.

Next Steps

The extensive mineralized corridors across the Kennedy Project with multiple high-grade targets have not yet seen any systematic modern exploration. A multidisciplinary program consisting of geological mapping, ground geophysics (magnetics and induced polarization) and soil and rock geochemical surveys are planned to refine existing targets and define new drill targets. Follow-up exploration is set to commence this fall.

Analytical and Quality Assurance and Quality Control Procedures

Rock samples were sent to Paragon Geochemical Laboratories in Sparks, Nevada for preparation and analysis. Paragon meets all requirements of International Standards ISO/IEC 17025:2005 and ISO 9001:2015 for analytical procedures. Samples were analyzed for gold via fire assay with an MS finish (‘AU-FA30′), and for silver via inductively-coupled plasma, mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS) after four-acid digestion (’48MA-MS’). Samples assaying over 8 ppm Au were re-run via fire assay for Au with a gravimetric finish (‘AU-GR30’). Samples that assayed over 100 ppm Ag (0.01%), 1,000 ppm Cu (1%), Zn (1%) and Pb (1%) were re-run via inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (‘OLMA-OES’).

Historical data referenced herein (e.g., rock samples2), including but not limited to assay results and geological interpretations from previous exploration activities, have been sourced from publicly available records, archived reports, and third-party databases believed to be reliable. However, Silver47 has not independently verified this historical data through resampling, re-assaying, or other confirmatory methods. As such, the Company cautions that this historical information has not been verified by a Qualified Person. The Company is not treating historical information as current and it is being used to guide exploration only.
