Alianza Plans Exploration Program for Tim High-Grade Silver-Lead-Zinc
Property, Yukon
High-grade silver mineralization in historic trenches
Detailed mapping, trenching and soils program for 2019
Alianza Minerals Ltd. (TSX-V: ANZ, OTC: TARSF) (“Alianza” or the “Company”) reports that the Company
has planned a 2019 exploration program for the Tim Property in southern Yukon Territory. Exploration is targeting
high-grade silver-lead-zinc Carbonate Replacement Mineralization (CRM) similar in style to that found at Coeur
Mining’s Silvertip Mine, located 12 km to the south. Alianza is planning detailed mapping, soils and reopening
trenches dating back to 1988. Additionally, Alianza is a successful applicant for a YMEP (Yukon Mining
Exploration Program) grant for the Tim project. Under the YMEP Target Evaluation program, the Yukon
government provides successful applicants funding to support mineral exploration activities for 50% of eligible
expenditures to a maximum of $40,000.
“We appreciate the support of the YMEP program from the Yukon government,” stated Jason Weber, P.Geo.,
President and CEO. “Interest in the Silvertip region has increased recently and Tim is one of the significant silver
targets in the area.”

Tim Property – History
In 2013, Alianza’s predecessor, Tarsis Resources completed a focused work program to re-evaluate a historical
zone of silver-lead rich Carbonate Replacement Mineralization (CRM) originally exposed by mechanized
trenching in 1988. Historical chip sampling across the zone returned 352 g/t silver and 9.12% lead acros s 4.00
metres. In addition to this exposure, similar mineralization was also reported in adjacent trenches 180 and 250
metres on either side of the central trench. This zone has never been tested with drilling.
Tarsis’ field crew relocated the central historical trench (T-3) in the 2013 program and exposed the main
mineralized showing with the use of hand tools. A total of 6.4 m of footwall alteration and CRM were exposed at
the base of the trench. Three series of sawn channel samples were taken across the exposure at approximately
1 m spacing between channels. The central channel tested a partial exposure of footwall alteration and the CRM
while the outer channels only tested the partially exposed CRM. A weighted average of the assays for each of
the channel series is included below.

Historical soil geochemical response defines three distinct linear northwest trending silver -lead anomalies, each of
which is continuously defined for a strike length of roughly 2,000 m. All historical trenching was conducted along
the trace of the central geochemical anomaly but the soil sample coverage was not completed over the
mineralized zone encountered in trench T-3 or northwest along strike.
The Tim property was initially staked in 1983 to cover silver-lead-zinc stream sediment geochemical anomalies
and a favourable geological environment with potential for carbonate-hosted mineralization similar to that at the
nearby Midway/Silvertip Mine now owned and operated by Coeur Mining.
Soil sampling, stream sediment sampling, geophysical surveys and trenching were carried out during the 1980’s;
however the property was not drill tested at that time. Tarsis acquired the property in 2007 and subsequently
optioned it to a junior exploration company which carried out a limited five hole diamond drill program in 2008,
largely targeting Induced Polarization geophysical anomalies. The nearest drill hole to the central trench T -3
mentioned above is located roughly 520 m away and was drilled parallel to the interpreted downdip orientation of
the mineralized zone.
