Aeri Geophysics Defines Significant Anomaly at San Acacio
AERI GEOPHYSICS DEFINES SIGNIFICANT ANOMALY AT
SAN ACACIO
FOR RELEASE: June 18, 2018 TSXV: DEF
OTC: DNCVF
Defiance Silver Corp. (“Defiance”) is pleased to announce the results from a recently completed
geophysics program employing Atomic Energy Resona nce Imaging (“AERI”) technology. This
cutting-edge technology recently completed its proof-of-concept testing resulting in multiple new
discoveries in North America. At the San Acacio project, it identified a significant anomaly at
depth, coincident with the recently delineated Induced Polarization (“IP”) target (see Defiance
News Release dated February 28, 2018). The AERI defined the anomaly starting at a depth of
200m and continuing past the detection limit of the technology at 1000m depth. The pipe shaped
anomaly measures 400m in width, 300m in length, and is open at depth. The shape, size and
mineral zonation of the AERI anomaly compares favourably with geophysical images generated
by Capstone Mining on their nearby Cozamin Mine.
“We are excited to have identified a massive target at depth that is coincident with our recently
identified IP anomaly. By employing both IP and revolutionary technologies such as Atomic
Electron Resonance Imaging (AERI), we have begun identifying targets along the un -mined
4.4km extension of the Veta Grande vein. In addition, the use of these technologies allows us to
more cost effectively drill the vein,” stated Peter J. Hawley, President and CEO. “We anticipate
drilling the anomaly in the near future as the size and depth of the anomaly have the potential to
be a game changer for Defiance.”

The Atomic Electron Resonance Imaging technology is a newly developed and recently proven
exploration tool that builds on high-precision 3D mineralization maps that penetrate up to 1000
meters deep. The surveys detect and different iate between precious and ba se metals
mineralization only and w ill not detect tectonic structures, faults or a ny other non -mineralized
zones. The AERI survey increases drilling efficiency by providing 3- Dimensional GPS location
and depth to the target within the accuracy of 5 meters.
Defiance has also accepted Mr. Roger Scammel’s resignation as director of the Company,
effective immediately. The company wishes to thank Mr. Scammel for his service and
dedication to the company and its shareholders and wishes him well in his future endeavors.
