Grade Epithermal Silver System. SMS25-09

GR Silver Mining Ltd.
("
GR Silver Mining
" or the
"
Company
") (TSXV: GRSL) (OTCQB: GRSLF) (DEU: GPE) is pleased to announce a 75 metre
wide (down-hole) silver intercept, including multiple high-grade (>1,000 g/t Ag) intervals, from the
current Step-Out Drilling Program. Drill hole SMS25-09 returned a
75 m
wide intercept at 293 g/t
AgEq,
including high-grade silver interval up to
6.4 m
at 1,915 g/t AgEq
. This excellent result has
expanded the mineralized footprint, extending high-grade mineralization by an
additional 100 metres
below the previous resource outline
("Resource Area") at the San Marcial Area of the Plomosas
Project in
Sinaloa, Mexico
.
Highlights of Step-Out Drilling at SE Deep Extension Target, San Marcial
SMS25-09 intersected
75 m
@ 293 g/t AgEq, including multiple intervals exceeding 1,000
g/t AgEq.
The hole tested 3D geophysical anomalies and successfully confirmed continuity of the
main high-grade mineralized structures at least
100 m
beyond the Resource Area.
Drilling returned a broad,
75 m
wide, silver-dominant zone with frequent boiling textures,
multiple phases of silver mineralization, and selective gold mineralization.
High-grade gold values were encountered in several intervals, confirming the presence
of both silver and gold mineralization at depth.
SMS25-09 also intersected a wide chlorite–hematite hydrothermal breccia within a
favorable structural setting formed by intersecting NW–NE regional structures. This
configuration may host sizeable geological traps in porous volcanoclastic rocks,
significantly enhancing the potential for resource expansion at San Marcial.
The high-grade silver mineralization remains open down-dip.
Drilling at the SE Extension target (Figure 1) has confirmed the continuation of wide, high-grade
silver mineralization, extending 100 metres horizontally beyond the current Resource Area.
Compelling geological and geochemical studies point to the presence of a large, well-preserved
silver-rich system linked to a recently identified regional porphyry intrusive setting, underscoring the
potential for significant future resource growth. Hole SMS25-09 (
75 m
@ 293 g/t AgEq) continues to
demonstrate the continuity of this significant silver-mineralized system, which was discovered in hole
SMS22-10 (
101.6 m
@ 308 g/t Ag) located 250 metres to the northwest (Figure 2-Geological Map
and 3-Longitudinal Section).
Successful drilling at the SE Extension is also confirming the continuity of wide, high-grade silver
zones at depth, with results pointing to a potential extension of mineralization for at least 450 metres
vertically from surface. Favorable alteration and mineralogical indicators support this growth
potential, with hole SMS25-09 notably displaying epithermal boiling textures (Figure 4), indicating a
well-preserved silver system that remains open at depth.
GR Silver Mining's President and CEO,
Marcio Fonseca
, commented,
"Step-Out drilling at San
Marcial has delivered strong results, confirming wide zones of high-grade, silver-dominant
mineralization 450 metres below surface. Guided by advanced geological work and 3D modelling,
this first-ever step-out drilling campaign has successfully tested extensions of the San Marcial
epithermal silver rich system. The transition of mineralization with depth, highlighted by changes in
alteration and lithology, supports our interpretation of a robust epithermal system hosted along the
northern edge of a large, regional porphyry intrusive setting. The results demonstrate significant
potential for future resource growth, marking a key milestone that opens the door for continued
expansion beyond current boundaries. We congratulate our geological team for this achievement,
which provides encouragement for substantial exploration success in upcoming San Marcial
drilling."

Successful drilling at the SE Deep Extension target has confirmed the continuity of mineralization 100
metres beyond the Resource Area, intersecting wide, predominantly chlorite–hematite-rich
hydrothermal breccia with notable epithermal features, including:
Boiling textures with calcite and high-grade silver (argentite and acanthite) hosted within
hydrothermal breccia zones (Figure 4), indicating possible proximity to the high-grade core of an
epithermal system that remains open both down dip and down plunge (Figure 3).
Geochemical modelling suggests that the Resource Area represents the upper portion of a
much larger epithermal system, hosted along the edge of a regional porphyry intrusive setting.
Continuous calcite, barite, and fluorite concentrations indicate that this zone lies near the top of
a well-preserved system, controlled by intersecting NW- and NE-trending regional faults.
The recently updated geological map (Figure 2) highlights three areas currently under investigation
by the Step-Out Drilling Program. The success of drill hole SMS25-09 at the SE Deep Extension
target strongly supports continued testing of extensions of the wide, high-grade silver mineralization.
Follow-up drilling aims to test the system an additional 100 metres down plunge. Drill hole SMS25-
11, currently in progress, along with the planned SMS25-12 (Figures 1, 2 and 3), are designed to
test further extensions, supporting the potential for future resource expansion.

About the Plomosas Project
The Plomosas Project, including the recent high-grade silver discovery in the San Marcial SE Area,
is progressing in 2025 as an emerging high-grade silver district located in southwestern edge of the
Sierra Madre Occidental,
Sinaloa, Mexico
. The Plomosas Project, covering 43,187 ha, including the
historical Plomosas Underground mine. benefits from mine infrastructure, road access and existing
permits associated with past-producing mining sites. The district contains intermediate to low-
sulfidation epithermal silver and gold mineralization, hosted in hydrothermal breccias and veins.
Recent success in exploration and drilling has delineated wide, high-grade, shallow hydrothermal
breccias in the San Marcial Area, including the SE Area discovery, where step-out drilling is
underway in 2025, aiming for continuous resource growth. At the historical Plomosas Mine, where
Grupo Mexico operated the underground mine from 1985 to 2000, exploration, underground
sampling and metallurgical programs are being conducted to support future decisions regarding the
implementation of a Bulk Sampling Test Mining Program
