Bayhorse Silver Renews Silver Concentrate Offtake Agreement with Ocean Partners,
Increases Proposed Shipping Volume To 400 Tons.
Bayhorse Silver Inc, (BHS: TSX -V, BHSIF: OTCQB, 7KXN: FRANKFURT) ( “Bayhorse”
or the “Company”) is pleased to report that it has renewed its silver/copper concentrate
Offtake Agreement with Ocean Partners UK Ltd and increased the proposed concentrate
shipping volume under the Agreement to a minimum 400 tons of silver/copper concentrate.
As the Agreement can be filled with third party material , the Company, will now source third
party mineralized material for processing at its permitted 50 ton/day flotation facility in nearby
Payette, Idaho. Prior testing shows the flotation silver concentrate produced from the facility
(BHS2020-12). is expected to be a minimum 2 tons per day, containing up to 10% copper,
12% antimony, 18% zinc along with the silver.
Bayhorse CEO Graeme O’Neill comments that, “the Bayhorse Silver Mine is planned for an
up to 200 tons/day mining rate. D epending on mined grade, the Company’s KSS100 Ore -
Sorter (“sorter”) can upgrade the mined tonnage silver content a minimum 4 times by
removing over 75% of non- mineralized waste from the mining stream to produce a
preconcentrate of between 20 to 50 tons/day , for shipping to its flotation mill. There is
significant amount of copper, antimony, zinc and lead mined along with the silver, plus minor
amounts of gold ( BHS2204-04) in the Bayhorse mineralization. A 5 kg Ore- Sorter select
sample with a head grade of 985 g/t (28.8 oz/t) silver, 1.16% copper and 1.87% zinc, was
derived from a 200 kg mined sample that was passed through the Ore- Sorter, that reduces
the volume of lower grade mineralization by between 8 0% to 95%. The testing achieved
flotation silver concentrate recoveries of 86.7%, resulting in a silver grade of 9,700 g/t.
(BHS2020-12). The dominant mineralization at the Bayhorse mine is Tetrahedrite..”
The discovery of the new, highly prospective, mineralized zones below the current workings
has prompted a review of the current mine plan and permit application, to take into account
access to the new mineralized zones. A new up to 65 feet long decline is planned underneath
the existing mine road to intersect the approximately 140 ft long west to east zone with an
estimated width of 70-80 foot and a 35 ft thickness where recent assays have shown a 3 m
(10 foot intersection averaging 1103 g/t ( 35.46 oz/t) silver and 0.61% copper (BHS2025-16)
over 1.5 m (5 ft) and 23.12 silver over 1.5m (5 ft) for an average grade of 911 g/t (29.29 opt)
over 3 m (10ft)
The planned decline will then allow a decline access to two other highly prospective IP targets
that extend another 76 m ( 250 feet) to the north of this new zone. Along with the existing
underground development, the new zone(s) will permit up to three working faces to achieve
the planned 200 tpd operation. The Company updates mining costs every three months by
comparing it to other mines costs to ensure its mine planning can be realized.

Cautionary statement
The Company is not basing any decision to produce on a feasibility study of mineral reserves
demonstrating economic and technical viability and advises there is an increased uncertainty
and specific economic and technical risk of failure with any production decision. These risks
include, but are not limited to, (i) a drop in price of commodities produced, namely silver,
copper, lead and zinc, from the pricing used to make a production decision; (ii) failure of
grades of the produced material to fall within the parameters used to make the production
decision; (iii) an increase in mining costs due to changes within the mine during development
and mining procedures; and (iv) metallurgical recovery changes that cannot be anticipated at
the time of production.

plans for and intentions with respect to the Company’s capitalization, preparation of technical
reports, proposed work programs, budgets and proposed expenditur es, permitting,
