Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 20, 2023) - IMPACT Silver Corp. (TSXV: IPT) (OTC
Pink: ISVLF) (FSE: IKL) ("IMPACT" or the "
Company
") is pleased to announce that it has closed the
Non-Brokered financing previously announced on April 6
th
, and upsized on April 12
th
, 2023 (the
"
Offering
").
The Company received an aggregate proceeds of C$8,343,813.24 from the issuance of 30,903,012
units (the "
Units
") of the Company at C$0.27 per unit. Each Unit is comprised of one common share of
the Company (a "
Common Share
") and one full Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant,
a "
Warrant
"). Each Warrant is exercisable to acquire one Common Share (a "
Warrant Share
") at a
price of C$0.35 per Warrant Share for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Offering.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for exploration, development and
general corporate purposes.
Frederick Davidson, CEO and President of the Company comments, "With global currencies on a near-
term pause from further rate hikes and recent historical highs in precious metal prices - the demand in
gold and silver as fundamental wealth preservation assets is growing and we are motivated to grow
IMPACT's operation and shareholder value with proceeds of this financing."
In consideration for their services, the Company has paid certain registered dealers a cash commission
equal to 6.0% of the gross subscription proceeds raised from certain subscribers in the Offering for total
commissions of $183,295.22.
Additionally, the Company granted an aggregate of 678,871 non-
transferable broker warrants to finders under the Offering.
Each broker warrant entitles the holder to
acquire one common share at a price of $0.35 per common share until April 19, 2025.
The securities issued under the Offering are subject to a standard hold period of four months and one
day, expiring on August 20, 2023, all in accordance with applicable securities laws.
The Offering is
subject to the Company's remaining filing requirements with the TSX Venture Exchange.
A director of the Company participated in the Offering. This participation by an insider in the Offering
constitutes a related-party transaction as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 --
Protection of
Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions
. However, the Company considers such participation
would be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101,
as the fair market value of the Units subscribed for by the insiders, and the consideration for the Units
paid by such insider, do not exceed 25 per cent of the Company's market capitalization.
The Company plans to follow up with a small second tranche for gross proceeds of up to $500,000 or up
to 1,851,851 units.
The units will have the same terms as the units sold under the current Offering and
largely allocated waiting payment and documentation reviews.
The Company expects to close this
second tranche by the end of April.
The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any state securities laws, and
accordingly, may not be offered or sold within the United States except in compliance with the
registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities requirements or

ABOUT IMPACT SILVER
IMPACT Silver Corp. (TSXV: IPT) is a successful producer-explorer with two mining projects in Mexico.
Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver-Gold District
: IMPACT owns 100% of the 211 km
2
Zacualpan
project where four underground silver mines and one open pit mine feed the central 500 tpd Guadalupe
processing plant. To the south, the Capire Project includes a 200 tpd processing pilot plant adjacent to
an open pit silver mine with an NI 43-101 inferred mineral resource of over 4.5 million oz silver, 48 million
lbs zinc and 21 million lbs lead (see IMPACT news release dated January 18, 2016 for details and QP
statement, and footnote
4
for report reference); Company engineers are reviewing Capire for a potential
restart of operations. Over the past 17 years, IMPACT has placed multiple zones into commercial
production and produced over 12 million ounces of silver, generating revenues over $241 million.
Plomosas Zinc-Lead-Silver District:
IMPACT signed a purchase / sale agreement with Consolidated
Zinc Limited (ASX: CZL) of Australia to purchase the Plomosas property and mining operations for
US$6 million (cash and shares) plus a 12% NPI (net profit interest) and a third party 1% NSR royalty.
Plomosas is a high-grade zinc-lead-silver producer with exceptional exploration potential. Upon closing
of the transaction, IMPACT plans to upgrade the mill and mine
with the aim to recommence operations in the near term followed by plans for expanding operations.
Exploration potential at Plomosas is exceptional with only 600m of the 6 kilometre long structure
assessed plus other exploration targets including untested copper-gold targets. Regionally, Plomosas
lies in the same mineral belt as some of the largest carbonate replacement deposits in the world.

interpretation of drill results, future work plans, the timing of closing of the Offering, proceeds received
and use of funds, the potential of the Company's projects, and potential and plans for the Plomosas
project, are forward looking statements. Forward-looking information is often, but not always, identified
by the use of words such as "seek", "anticipate", "plan", "continue", "planned", "expect", "project",
"predict", "potential", "targeting", "intends", "believe", "potential", and similar expressions, or describes

Such forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks and assumptions, including with

IMPACT does not assume the obligation to update any forward-looking statement, except as required by
law.
The Company's decision to place a mine into production, expand a mine, make other production related
decisions or otherwise carry out mining and processing operations, is largely based on internal non-
public Company data and reports based on exploration, development and mining work by the
Company's geologists and engineers. The results of this work are evident in the discovery and building
of multiple mines for the Company and in the track record of mineral production and financial returns of
the Company since 2006. Under NI 43-101 the Company is required to disclose that it has not based its
production decisions on NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource or reserve estimates, preliminary
economic assessments or feasibility studies, and historically such projects have increased uncertainty
and risk of failure.
