land in the area, allows for surface exploration and drill targeting on the La Noria portion of the La

to engage the local stakeholders to establish and work towards building a mutually beneficial
relationship,” said Mike Romanik president of Silver Dollar. “Covid has added some unique
challenges to this process, but we are fortunate to have an experienced Country Manager in Mark
Malfair as part of the team and signing of this surface agreement paves the way for exploration to
commence for the first time in over seven years. We look forward to working with the local
communities to advance the project in a responsible and respectful manner.”
