Arizona Silver Exploration Moves Core Rig to the Philadelphia Project, Arizona

Vancouver, British Columbia, August 12, 2020 – Arizona Silver Exploration. (TSXV:

AZS) (OTCQB: AZASF) has mobilized a core rig to our 100% owned Philadelphia property.

The Company has moved a core rig to the Philadelphia property. The current drilling program

will consist of up to four core holes that will test continuity of the high -grade gold and silver

zone on the west side of the Philadelphia vein system encountered in RC and co re drilling

previously and announced on November 13, 2019 http://arizonasilverexploration.com/home-

page/arizona-silver-announces-new-high-grade-gold-silver-intercepts-in-mohave-county-

arizona/ . The RC drilling completed earlier this year to test the down-dip of the vein structure

encountered a very high-water flow, and only marginal grades in the samples recovered. The

conclusion is we believe there is a feeder structure on the west end of the vein that accounts for

the high gold grades and silver values and high beryllium values encountered there previously.

The down-dip portion of the vein had very low silver and beryllium values suggesting we were

moving away from the feeder structure which we believe to be closer to the west side of the

vein.

Core drilling at the Ramsey project was suspended as a r esult of excessive fragmented rock,

resulting in inconsistent core recovery and poor quality of the core. The decision was made to

return with an RC rig , which has demonstrated better efficiency to drill the broken ground

encountered, while getting good recovery and much better productivity. We are pleased the bottom

of the core hole that was aborted demonstrated increased alteration (both hematite and silica). An

increase in silica and carbonate veining in the core that was recovered , indicat es the hole was

approaching our target of stockwork and disseminated silver above the detachment fault structure.

Returning with a RC rig will save costs and will more efficiently drill this target.
