NEWS RELEASE
SILVER TIGER INTERSECTS 3,083.4 g/t AgEq OVER 0.5 METERS WITHIN A BROADER
INTERVAL OF 6.6 METERS GRADING 345.1 g/t AgEq IN THE SOOY VEIN
HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA – January 25, 2022 – Silver Tiger Metals Inc. (TSXV:SLVR and
OTCQX:SLVTF) ("Silver Tiger" or the “Corporation”) has intersected 3,083.4 g/t silver equivalent over
0.5 meters in the Sooy Vein in Drill Hole ET-21-287 from 105.2 meters to 105.7 meters within a broader
mineralized interval of 6.6 meters 345.1 g/t silver equivalent from 104.6 meters to 111.2 meters.
Highlights from the on-going drilling program include the following:
● Hole ET-21-287: 0.5 meters grading 3,083.4 g/t silver equivalent from 105.2 meters to 105.7
meters, consisting of 2,393.0 g/t silver, 0.03 g/t gold, 1.81% copper, 7.54% lead and 10.09% zinc
within 6.6 meters grading 345.1 g/t silver equivalent from 104.6 meters to 111.2 meters,
consisting of 272.8 g/t silver, 0.06 g/t gold, 0.21% copper, 0.68% lead and 0.96% zinc
● Hole ET-21-263: 3.0 meters grading 939.9 g/t silver equivalent from 292.9 meters to 295.9
meters, consisting of 702.0 g/t silver, 1.05 g/t gold, 0.54% copper, 1.84% lead and 1.91 % zinc
within 22.6 meters grading 241.6 g/t silver equivalent from 291.6 meters to 314.2 meters,
consisting of 179.7 g/t silver, 0.21 g/t gold, 0.13% copper, 0.57% lead and 0.62% zinc
Additional results are presented in the Drill Hole Results table below along with the details for the
calculation of the silver equivalent grades.
Attached is El Tigre Cross Section 5075N detailing Drill Hole ET-21-287. Also attached is a Plan Map of
the El Tigre Veins and Drill Holes. A Plan Map of the 600 meter central portion of the Sooy Vein is also
attached.
Silver Tiger’s CEO, Glenn Jessome, stated, “Hole 287 delivered high grade mineralization in the black
shale horizon 175 meters north of Discovery Hole 202 and a full 75 meters north of where historic mining
ended on the Sooy Vein. Drill intercepts on the Sooy, El Tigre and Seitz Kelley Veins continue to pierce
quartz veins in the black shale horizon that hosts high grade s ilver and gold mineralization . Our
understanding of these 2 geological units and how they control high grade mineralization allows our drilling
to be more focused and predictive.”

El Tigre Resource Estimate
After acquiring El Tigre, Silver Tiger drilled 12,500 meters to define the wide halo of near surface gold
mineralization around the mined high-grade veins of the historic El Tigre Mine. This allowed Silver Tiger
to deliver a maiden resource estimate for the El Tigre Property to a depth of 150 meters containing indicated
resources of 661,000 gold equivalent ounces at 0.77 g/t (21 g/t silver and 0.51 g/t gold) and inferred
resources of 341,000 gold equivalent ounces at 1.59 g/t (88 g/t silver and 0.52 g/t gol d). The National
Instrument 43-101 Technical Report titled “NI 43 -101 Technical Report and Updated Mineral Resource
Estimate on the El Tigre Project, Sonora, México” effective as of September 7, 2017 and dated October 26,
2017 prepared by David Burga, P.Geo., Yungang Wu, P.Geo., Fred Brown, P.Geo., Jarita Barry, P.Geo.,

About the El Tigre Historic Mine District
Silver Tiger Metals Inc. is a Canadian company whose management has more than 25 years’ experience
discovering, financing and building large hydrothermal silver projects in Mexico. Silver Tiger’s 100%
owned 28,414 hectare Historic El Tigre Mining District is located in Sonora, Mexico. Principled
environmental, social and governance practices are core priorities at Silver Tiger.
The El Tigre historic mine district is located in Sonora, Mexico and lies at the north ern end of the Sierra
Madre silver and gold belt which hosts many epithermal silver and gold deposits, including Dolores, Santa
Elena and Las Chispas at the northern end. In 1896, gold was first discovered on the property in the Gold
Hill area and mining started with the Brown Shaft in 1903. The focus soon changed to mining high-grade
silver veins in the area with production coming from 3 parallel veins the El Tigre Vein, the Seitz Kelley
Vein and the Sooy Vein. Underground mining on the middle El Tigre vein extended 1,450 meters along
strike and was mined on 14 levels to a depth of approximately 450 meters. The Seitz Kelley Vein was
mined along strike for 1 kilometer to a depth of approximately 200 meters. The Sooy Vein was only mined
along strike for 250 meters to a depth of approximately 150 meters. Mining abruptly stopped on all 3 of
these veins when the price of silver collapsed to less than 20¢ per ounce with the onset of the Great
Depression. By the time the mine closed in 1930, it is reported to have produced a total of 353,000 ounces
of gold and 67.4 million ounces of silver from 1.87 million tons (Craig, 2012). The average grade mined
during this period was over 2 kilograms silver equivalent per ton.
The El Tigre silver and gold deposit is r elated to a series of high -grade epithermal veins controlled by a
north-south trending structure cutting across the andesitic and rhyolitic tuffs of the Sierra Madre Volcanic
Complex within a broad silver and gold mineralized prophylitic alteration zone de veloped in the El Tigre
Formation that can be up to 150 meters wide. The veins dip steeply to the west and are typically 0.5 meter
wide but locally can be up to 5 meters in width. The veins, structures and mineralized zones outcrop on
surface and have been traced for 5.3 kilometers along strike in our brownfield exploration area. Historical
mining and exploration activities focused on a 1. 6 kilometer portion of the southern end of the deposits,
principally on the El Tigre, Seitz Kelly and Sooy veins. The under explored Caleigh, Benjamin, Protectora
and the Fundadora exposed veins continue north for more than 3 kilometers. Silver Tiger has delivered its
maiden 43-101 compliant resource estimate and is currently drilling to update its resource estimate and
publish a PEA.

Procedure, Quality Assurance / Quality Control and Data Verification
The diamond drill core (HQ size) is geologically logged, photographed and marked for sampling. When
the sample lengths are determined, the full core is sawn with a diamond blade core saw with one half of the
core being bagged and tagged for assay. The remaining half portion is returned to the core trays for storage
and/or for metallurgical test work.
The sealed and tagged sample bags are transported to the Bureau Veritas facility in Hermosillo, Mexico.
Bureau Veritas crushes the samples (Code PRP70 -250) and prepares 200 -300 gram pulp samples with
ninety percent passing Tyler 200 mesh (Code PUL85). The pulps are assayed for gold using a 30 -gram
charge by fire assay (Code FA630) and over limits greater than 10 grams per tonne are re-assayed using a
gravimetric finish (Code FA530). Silver and multi -element analysis is completed using total digestion
(Code MA200 Total Digestion ICP). Over limits greater than 100 grams per tonne silver are re -assayed
using a gravimetric finish (Code FA530).
Quality assurance and quality control ("QA/QC") procedures monitor the chain-of-custody of the samples
and includes the systematic insertion and monitoring of appropriate reference materials (certified standards,
blanks and duplicates) into the sample strings. The results of the assaying of the QA/QC material included
in each batch are tracked to ensure the integrity of the assay data. All results stated in this announcement
have passed Silver Tiger’s QA/QC protocols.
