Silver Range stakes new high-grade gold targets in Nevada

VANCOUVER, June 29, 2018 /CNW/ - Silver Range Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: SNG) ("Silver Range")

announces it has completed a spring reconnaissance program in Nevada and staked three new high

grade gold targets.

Robot

The Robot Property is 22 kilometres south of Yerington in Lyon County. The claim block covers gold

occurrences in Jurassic-Cretaceous granodiorite along a mile-long trend in the footwall of a prominent

north-striking range front fault. Gold mineralization is hosted in sympathetic, antithetic and cross-cutting

veins and shears. At the North Showing, best grab sample results from an initial examination by Silver

Range in May were 54.3 g/t Au and 20.0 g/t Au from separate veins. At the South Showing, best grab

sample results from the same program were 5.86 g/t Au. Six of 21 grab samples collected during the

initial examination returned analyses greater than 1 g/t Au. Silver Range found no evidence of modern

exploration suggesting this target may have been overlooked. Reconnaissance stream sediment sample

results suggest that additional mineralization may be present between the two showings. Silver Range

intends to conduct additional prospecting and sampling to follow-up on the stream sediment sampling

results.

Bottom Dollar

The Bottom Dollar Property is 102 kilometres northwest of Winnemucca in Humboldt County. The

property is underlain by Jurassic-Triassic limestone and Happy Creek volcanics intruded by

Cretaceous(?) granodiorite. Gold mineralization is dominantly vein hosted with subordinate skarn

developed in carbonate rocks. Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology sampling reported assays of 28 g/t

Au and 23 g/t Au from selected specimens collected on the property. Initial sampling by Silver Range in

May 2018 returned a best grab sample assay of 15.95 g/t Au with 181 g/t Ag and 1.1% Cu from a set of

24 samples, 5 of which returned gold analyses greater than 1 g/t Au. Anomalous orientation soil sample

results up to 132 ppb Au were returned from an area of past trenching but higher responses up to 554

ppb Au were recorded well outside of this zone. Additional prospecting, soil sampling and ground

geophysics followed by trenching are required to further assess the property's potential.

Posh

The Posh Property is located in Mineral County, 20 km south of Hawthorne in the Wassuk Range. The

property is underlain by Cretaceous granite and granodiorite cut by west-northwest trending shears and

veins. The Main Showing on the property consists of gold and silver bearing quartz in a 1.5 metre wide,

steeply north-dipping shear zone. The shear zone is exposed in trenches, an adit and a road cut over a

distance of approximately 120 m. Initial grab sampling in April returned grab samples assaying up to 4.82

g/t Au and 101 g/t Ag with 4 of 8 samples collected returning analyses greater than 1 g/t Au. This

confirmed similar results reported by the Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology which report a historic

grab sample assay of 5.30 ppm Au and 120 ppm Ag from dump material.

In addition to work on these projects, a series of other prospects were screened and regional work

continued on a developing target. Further work in Nevada is planned in the fall, following completion of

summer exploration work on projects in the NWT and Nunavut.

Samples were secured and transported by the field crew to ALS Minerals facilities in Reno, Nevada for

sample preparation. Pulps were shipped to North Vancouver for assaying and geochemical analyses.

Rock samples were analyzed by Ultra-Trace Aqua Regia ICP-MS (ME-MS41) and fire assayed for gold

(30 g sample) (Au-AA25). Samples that exceeded the detection limits of the routine methods were

assayed for silver and copper by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (Ag/Cu-

OG46) and for gold by gravimetric analysis (Au-GRA21). Soil samples were analyzed by ICP-MS (ME-

MS41L).

Silver Range is a precious metals prospect generator working in Nevada, Nunavut and the Northwest

Territories. The company has assembled a portfolio of 40 properties, 12 of which are currently optioned

and being explored by partners. Silver Range is actively seeking joint venture partners to explore the high

grade precious metal targets in its portfolio.
