NEVADA SILVER CORPORATION DRILLS WIDE INTERSECTIONS OF
MINERALIZATION AT ITS CORCORAN SILVER-GOLD PROJECT, NEVADA, USA
NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR THROUGH U.S. NEWS WIRES
Toronto, Ontario, 14th December 2021: Nevada Silver Corporation (“NSC” or the “Company”) (TSXV: NSC) is
pleased to provide an update on assay results from the 2021 diamond drill program at its 100% owned
Corcoran Silver-Gold project (“Corcoran” or the “Project”) in Nevada, USA.
NSC has received analytical results from two diamond drill holes (CC21-04 and CC21-05) of the company’s
maiden drill campaign. Highlights include:
CC21-04
• 142.15 meters from 29.85 meters @ 42g/t AgEq (13g/t Ag, 0.38g/t Au)
Including:
o 14.65 meters @51g/t AgEq (4g/t Ag, 0.62g/t Au)
o 16.00 meters @63g/t AgEq (16g/t Ag, 0.63g/t Au)
o 16.50 meters @88g/t AgEq (57g/t Ag, 0.41g/t Au)
CC21-05
• 34.5 meters from 57.00 meters @101g/t AgEq (86g/t Ag, 0.20g/t Au)
Including:
o 1.50 meters @1137g/t AgEq (1120g/t Ag, 0.23g/t Au)
Mineralized intervals from the first hole (CC21-01) were reported on 10th November 2021 and include:
- 96 meters from surface @ 35g/t AgEq (19g/t Ag, 0.21g/t Au),
- 2.67 meters from 233.7 meters @ 1336g/t AgEq ((1219g/t Ag, 1.82g/t Au including 1.33 meters @
2466g/t AgEq (2310g/t Ag, 2.6g/t Au))
- 6.09 meters from 245.7m @ 277g/t AgEq (253g/t Ag, 0.38g/t Au).
Drill holes CC21-01, 04 and 05 are the first three holes released in NSC’s recently completed 3,040-meter
drilling program at the outcropping epithermal Corcoran Silver-Gold deposit (Figure 1).
The collar of drill hole CC21-04 is located 200 meters north of CC21-01 and the hole was drilled towards
the south east at a 47.5 degree dip. The 142 meter Ag-Au intersection in CC21-04 confirms the
considerable extent and thickness of the Corcoran deposit and consistently elevated gold grades
indicate that gold to silver ratios are variable within the deposit.
CC21-05 is located 300 meters north east of CC21-01. Like CC21-01, this vertical hole intersected
narrow zones of high grade silver (e.g. 1120g/t Ag between 70.00-71.50 meters). Partial oxidation
extends to considerable depth in both CC21-04 and CC21-05 and this is typically prominent in
structural zones, fractures and veinlets (Figure 2).
Assay results for the remaining 14 holes (CC21-02, 03, 06-17) are expected during coming weeks.

Assay highlights are summarized in Table 1 and drill hole location details are listed in Table 2.
NSC CEO Gary Lewis commented, “CC21-04 and 5 have both intersected thick zones of near-surface silver and
gold representing the potential for a very large deposit. The high-grade silver intersections in both CC21-01
and CC21-05 are particularly encouraging because these holes are 300 meters apart and there appears to be
continuity of high grades along this trend. Importantly, the CC21-05 results show that Corcoran is likely to
extend further to the north east, beyond the current drill program.”

Intervals are core length. True width of mineralization is unknown until more drill data is available.
Drill location, altitude, azimuth and dip of drill holes are provided in Table 2.
Quality control, Assay laboratory and analytical methods are detailed in the text of this report.
A cut-off grade of 20g/t silver equivalent (AgEq) has been applied to calculate the length-weighted
intercepts.
Numbers are rounded.
† Silver equivalent values (AgEq) - Metal prices follow the NI 43-101 Resource report on the Corcoran
Canyon Project by Mosher and Smith (October, 2020) which used USD1460/ounce gold and
USD17/ounce silver as well as a cut-off grade of 20g/t AgEq which has been applied to these results.
Precious metal recoveries off 98.2% Ag and 88.6% Au were determined by laboratory tests by ALS
(USA) in December 2018 (reference RE18305962), the most recent metal recovery data available. AgEq
has been calculated as follows: AgEq = (gold price/silver price) x (gold assay x 0.886) + (silver assay x
0.982).

Quality Assurance, Sampling and Assay Determinations
The diamond drilling was undertaken by Falcon Drilling, Inc, Nevada, using industry standard equipment and
procedures. All drill core was HQ size. Drilling supervision and drill core logging and sampling was carried out
by Ethos Geological, Inc under the direction of Mr Scott Close (President and Chief Geologist, Ethos
Geological).
Drill hole orientation, down-hole survey data and collar coordinates were routinely gathered and drill core
was logged (geological and geotechnical) and photographed prior to sampling. Drill core samples were
collected at variable lengths (averaging 1 meter) and saw-sampled on-site prior to storage in a secure
compound.
Collected intervals including quality control samples (duplicates, blanks and international standards) were
forwarded by secure freight to ALS Chemex Labs, Inc in Reno, NV. Analytical procedures used four acid ICP-
AES (code ME-ICP61) for silver and 32 elements and additional assays for ore-grade samples (Ag-OG62, ME-
OG62). High silver grades (over 1500g/t Ag) were determined using fire assay method Ag-GRA21.
