Silver Range Resources Ltd. options the South Kitikmeot Gold Project, Nunavut
Vancouver, B.C. , August 19 , 2021 – Silver Range Resources Ltd. [TSX-V:SNG] (“Silver Range ” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce that it has optioned the South Kitikmeot Gold Project (“Project”) to Viridis
Mining and Minerals Limited (“Viridis”), an Australian company.
South Kitikmeot Gold Project
The South Kitikmeot Gold Project covers known gold occurrences along a 200 km long package of metasedimentary
rocks which host the Lupin Mine (3.4 M oz gold (pr oduction to date)) and the Back River Project (5.3 M oz gold
(Measured and Indicated Resources)) currently being advanced to production by Sabina Gold & Silver Ltd.
[TSX:SBB] (“Sabina”). The South Kitikmeot Gold Project includes the following Properties:
• Esker Lake: Iron-formation hosted gold in three settings at Brandon Hill, Sheit Lake and Wasp Lake.
Surface grab samples have assayed up to 61 g/t Au and drill intersections up to 3.0 m @ 11.7 g/t Au.
• Gold Bugs: Three high gold showings with surface grab samples returning up to 33.2 g/t Au embedded
within a 7 km long section of thick folded iron formation.
• Qannituq: Covers prospective Beechey Lake metasediments, northeast of Sabina’s Back River Project main
claim block and 3.4 km along strike with its Llama Deposit. Reconnaissance prospecting during 2017
located auriferous iron formation hosted quartz veining on the Qannituq claims; a significant finding given
98% of the property is till-covered.
• Uist: Regional scale folded iron formation hosting three high grade gold zones returning grab samples
assaying up to 156.28 g/t Au . Drill targets have been defined by total magnetic field and horizontal loop
electromagnetic field surveys at the Billie and Holiday Showings.
• Ujaraq: Covers iron formation immediately east of the Finn Property and the Lupin Mine leases. Boulder
sampling has returned up to 28.11 g/t Au and the best of 9 holes intersecting iron formation returned 6.27 m
@ 2.13 g/t Au.
• Hiqiniq: Covers iron formation immediately west of the Lupin Mine leases. Surface samples have been
collected assaying up to 11.16 g/t Au.
• Bling: Arsenopyrite-rich iron formation, associated with a 700 m long EM conductor along a vo lcanic-
sediment contact, returned grab sample assays up to 47.1 g/t Au and trench sampling results of 2.0 m @ 16
g/t Au.
Agreement terms
Silver Range has entered into an Agreement with Viridis by means of a binding term sheet. Following the completion
of a successful IPO, receiving the required approvals to list on the ASX and paying Silver Range A$25,000, Viridis
may earn an initial 51% interest in the Project by incurring exploration expenditures of not less than A$1,5000,000 by
December 31, 2024 (Stage 1). Viridis may then earn an additional 15% interest by spending an additional
A$2,000,000 by December 31, 2027 (Stage 2), and earn a further 24% interest (total 90%) by completing a preliminary
2
feasibility study on one of the Properties comprising the Project before December 31, 2037 (Stage 3). If Viridis elects
to cease funding exploration at any time following the completion of the Stage 1 option a Joint Venture will be formed
and Viridis will forfeit its rights to earn further interest in the Project. Any time following the completion of Stage 3
Viridis will have the option to acquire Silver Range’s remaining 10% interest in the Project at fair market value, to be
determined by an indepen dent qualified valuator. After completion of Stage 3, Silver Range will retain a 2% Net
Smelter Return (“NSR”) Royalty, half of which may be re -purchased for A$1,500,000 in cash or shares. In addition,
Defined Resource Payments (“DRP”) of A$200,000 are payable to Silver Range within 5 days of definition of a JORC
compliant Inferred Resource on any of the Properties of at least 500,000 ounces at an average grade of 1.8 g/t gold
with a cut-off grade of at least 1.8 g/t gold, and a further A$200,000 within 5 days of definition of a JORC compliant
Inferred Resource on any of the Properties of at least 1 million ounces gold at an average grade of 1.6 g/t with a cut-off
grade of at least 1.6 g/t gold.
