Silver Range Resources Ltd. forms Joint-Venture at Hannapah Project near Tonopah, Nevada
Vancouver, B.C., December 6, 2022 – Silver Range Resources Ltd. [TSX-V:SNG] (“Silver Range” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce that it has formed a Joint-Venture with Mercury Nevada Exploration Inc.
(“Mercury”), a private Nevada corporation, to consolidate, explore and jointly market their respective claim holdings in
the Hannapah Mining District (“Hannapah Project” or “Project”).
The Hannapah Project is located 28 km east of Tonopah near McKinney Tanks Summit. It consists of 55 Federal Lode
Claims staked on U.S. Forest Service Land covering most of the historic Hannapah Mining District. Surface rock
sampling by Mercury, Silver Range and former option partner Infield Minerals Corp. have returned wi despread high-
grade silver and lower gold assays. Best results to date include 568 g/t Ag and 1.01 g/t Au from a composite sample of
dump material at the Richardson Mine; a nearby grab sample to 598 g/t Ag; and 2.42 g/t Au and 301 g/t Ag from altered
rhyolite northeast of the Richardson Mine.
Mineralization on the property is high-level low-sulphidation in style with highest grade mineralization located in faults
and fracture-controlled veins. Silver and gold occur in quartz -limonite-goethite-clay vein material at surface and in
quartz-pyrite(polybasite) vein material below 20 metres in mines on the Project.
The Hannapah Project occurs west of a terminal inflection in the Kawich -Toiyabe Lineament, an 80 kilometre -long
steeply-dipping structure extending from the Reveille Range to the Monitor Range in western Nevada. The Reveille,
Bellehelen, Ellendale and Hannapah Mining Districts occur along this structure and host low-sulphidation precious metal
mineralization. ASTER alteration imagery and structural geology considerations indicate that there is a large horse-tail
fault termination system underlying the Hannapah Project. In the immediate Project area there is a wide, poorly exposed
fault network which hosts silver mineralization on and adjacent to the Project.
Silver mineralization in the Hannapah District was discovered in 1870 with reports of a small shipment in 1871. The
Hannapah Mine was developed in two shafts from 1902 through 1907 and made small shipments until shut down by a
fire in 1907. The Hannapah Mine was briefly reactivated in 1927-1928. The Richardson Mine was staked in 1907 and
mined intermittently by the owner until his tragic death in 1935. The Silver Glance Mine at the west end of the Hannapah
Project reportedly produced $300,000 in silver and gold between 1905 and 1907. It was briefly reactivated in 1930 with
no recorded additional production.
Modern exploration in the district includes staking and exploration by Kinross Gold, Wolfpack Gold, Seabridge Gold
and Pilot Gold. Silver Range staked claims in the district in 2017 and was joined by Mercury in 2018. In 2019, Mercury
optioned Silver Range’s claims and in turn optioned the entire package to Infield Minerals Corp. Infield conducted an
exploration program on the Project in 2020 and terminated the option in 2021. Mercury subsequently completed an
airborne total magnetic field survey on the Project and Silver Range completed a three -dimensional inversion of
consolidated aeromagnetic data in October 2022.
Silver Range and Mercury believe the fault network on the Hannapah Project may host significant epithermal silver-gold
mineralization including potential bulk tonnage mineralization. Both companies intend to conduct frequency domain
electromagnetic field surveys to map the fault network to be followed by detailed rock and soil sampling; geologic and
alteration mapping; and shallow drilling. A short video technical presentation on the Hannapah Project is available on
Silver Range’s website at https://silverrangeresources.com/projects/nevada/hannapah/.
