BLENDE SILVER CORP PROVIDES UPDATE FOR THE BLENDE ZINC-LEAD-SILVER PROPERTY
September 9, 2025
Vancouver, Canada – Blende Silver Corp. (the “Company”) (TSX:BAG) announces an update for its 5,434
hectare Blende zinc-lead-silver property (the ”Property”) located within the Traditional Territory of the First
Nation of Na-Cho Nyӓk Dun and 65 km northeast of Keno City, Yukon.
The Company completed its proposal for a Class 4 Quartz Mining Land Use Approval (the “Application”) in
January 2025. The Company has been actively engaged with regulatory authorities to facilitate the approval
process for the Class 4 Quartz Mining Permit which is essential for advancing exploration and development
at the Property. Proposed activities at the Property include the upgrade of up to 5 km of existing trails,
construction of up to 2 km of new trail, one new heli-pad, a 1 km air strip, a new camp facility located about
200 m up valley from the previously permitted camp, all in support of a 25,000 m drill program whic h
proposes up to 50 surface diamond drill holes per year.
The Yukon Environmental and Socio-economic Assessment Board (YESAB) has extended its timeline for
collecting public comments on the project until September 18, 2025. Stakeholders are encouraged to view
the Application and participate in the assessment process by submitting their feedback through the YESAB
Online Registry. Additionally, while the Class 4 Application is under review, the Company is moving forward
this week, with a smaller Class 1 Exploration Notification which will initially see the installation of a smaller
scale camp at the existing site to support a surface drill program over a period of less than 250 person days
per camp.
The Company’s director, Andrew H Rees, stated “We are excited to continue exploration on the Blende
Property which, in 1995, was reported to be the largest strata- bound, carbonate-hosted, zinc-lead deposit
in the Yukon as described in Economic Geology, Vol.90, 1995”.
The Property covers a Proterozoic-aged carbonate-hosted massive sulphide deposit with characteristics of
both Irish- type and clastic -dominated zinc -lead deposits. The mineralization is hosted within Lower
Proterozoic Gillespie Group dolomite, forming a >6 km mineralized corridor on the southern edge of the
Mackenzie Platform. An NI 43 -101 compliant Mineral Resource Estimate was completed for the Property
by Moose Mountain Technical Services, Effective Date March 15, 2021 reporting an Indicated Mineral
Resource of 4.6 million tonnes grading 1.82% Zn, 1.63% Pb and 30.3 g/t Ag (187 million pounds of zinc,
167 million pounds of lead and 4.5 million ounces of silver), along with an Inferred Mineral Resource of 42.2
million tonnes grading 1.83% Zn, 1.62% Pb and 27.5 g/t Ag (1.7 billion pounds of zinc, 1.5 billion pounds of
lead and 37.3 million ounces of silver) (see Company website and SEDAR+).

Notes to Table:
1. The Mineral Resource Estimate has been prepared by Sue Bird, P.Eng., an independent Qualified Person.
2. Resources are reported using the 2014 CIM Definition Standards and were estimated using the 2019 CIM Best Practices
Guidelines.
3. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
4. The Mineral Resource has been confined by a “reasonable prospects of eventual economic extraction” pit using the following
assumptions: US $1.3/lb Zn, US $1.0/lb Pb and US$26/oz Ag at a currency exchange rate of 0.77 US$ per $CDN; Recoveries of
70% Zn, 85% Pb and 90% Ag, a 3% NSR royalty and Payable of 88% payable Zn, 83% payable Pb, 73% payable Ag.
5. The resulting ZnEq is: ZnEq = Zn% + (Pb% ∗ $1.0 ∗ 0.85 ∗ 0.95)/(Zn% ∗ $1.3 ∗ 0.70 ∗ 0.85) + Ag gpt/ 31.1034 ∗ $26 ∗ 0.90
∗ 0.80) / (Zn% ∗ 1.3 ∗ 0.70 ∗ 0.85 ∗ 22.0462)
6. The specific gravity of the deposit has been determined by correlation with Zn and Pb grades. sg= (Zn%+Pb%)*0.015+2.8
7. Pit slope angles are assumed at 45º
8. Numbers may not add due to rounding.
