Silver One Discovers New High-Grade Silver-Gold Zone at Cherokee Project, Lincoln County, Nevada
Silver One Discovers New High-Grade Silver-Gold Zone
at Cherokee Project, Lincoln County, Nevada
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 23, 2018) -
Silver One Resources Inc. (TSXV: SVE) (OTC Pink:
SLVRF) (FSE: BRK1) ("Silver One" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that recent sampling, from select grab, chip and
dump samples, collected predominantly in the southeastern section of its 100%-owned Cherokee project in Lincoln County,
Nevada, has returned additional high-grade silver-gold values up to 1,895 gm/t silver and 2 gm/t gold (see Figure 1. below).
This
is in an area that had not previously undergone extensive sampling and has now been identified as "Hidden Treasure".
Ongoing
mapping has outlined multiple new veins in this area measuring two kilometres by one kilometre, which better defines the
southeastern portion of a much larger regional scale epithermal system extending for over 12 kilometres.
Hidden Treasure lies east-southeast of the Johnnie Mine (see Company news releases of July 9 and July 19, 2018) and hosts
some of the highest gold values collected to date on the Cherokee property.
It occurs where the high-grade Cherokee and
Mojoto vein systems are interpreted to merge (see Figure 2. below).
This intersection area of two major regional scale vein
systems could be a very favourable structural host for the localization of epithermal style mineralization.
Greg Crowe, President and CEO of Silver One Resources commented,
"
The
high silver and gold values associated with the
Hidden Treasure area are pointing to a
n overall
mineralized zonation on the Cherokee property along the length of the 12+
k
ilometre
system
s
identified to date.
Cherokee
and Mojoto to the northwest are
silver and copper rich
, with values
up
to 954
gm/t silver and 4.8% copper from select sampling
.
The Jo
h
nnie area is characterized by lower silver
and copper
with
elevated
gold values
in comparison with the Cherokee and Mojoto.
Hidden Treasure
contains some of the highest gold plus
silver
values recorded to
date but
is lower in copper
.
"
Mr. Crowe continued,
"
More sampling and eventual drilling will be required to delineate the overall dimensions of potential
mineralized systems, but the sampling undertaken
thus far
by Silver One is very encouraging and clearly outlines the
sizeable
potential
of the Cherokee property.
Epithermal systems with high-grade values
,
such as those occurring at
Cherokee
,
are host to some of the most prolific producing gold and silver mines."
Cherokee is an emerging epithermal silver, gold and copper district located approximately 75 kilometres south of the historic
Pioche silver-gold-copper-zinc-lead mining camp.
Silver One's property covers 5,200 hectares (52 square kilometres) of a 12-
kilometre long by 4-kilometre wide structurally controlled silver-copper-gold system.
It is hosted by Paleozoic aged sediments,
similar in part to the host rocks for the mineralized systems at Pioche.
From 1869 to present, the neighboring Pioche area
mined over 6 million tons producing over 1 million ounces of gold, 20 million ounces of silver, 7 million pounds of copper, 350
million pounds of lead and 700 million pounds of zinc.
Production was initially from gold-silver-copper epithermal veins and later
from underlying carbonate-hosted replacement-type mineralized bodies.
The figures below highlight the property location, the outlines of known veins and key silver and gold sample results.
The
selected samples set forth herein are not necessarily representative of the mineralization hosted on the property. Additional

Quality Assurance/Quality Control
The samples were hand-delivered by Silver One personnel to the labs to ensure proper chain-of-custody procedures.
The
samples were assayed by Bureau Veritas (ISO 9001:2008) and American Assay Laboratories (ISO/IEC 17025:2005) located in
Reno, Nevada.
At the laboratory, the samples were dried, split and assayed.
The samples were then analyzed for total gold by
fire assay with an AA finish, silver by fire assay with a gravimetric finish and an aqua regia digestion-multi-element scan by ICP-
ES.
Over limits of silver and gold were further analyzed by fire assay-gravimetric using a 30-gram sample.
Over limits of copper, lead
and zinc were analyzed by AAS with aqua regia digestion.
As part of the standard operating procedures, both labs also inserted
certified blanks, standards and included duplicate analyses.

About Silver One
Silver One is focused on the exploration and development of quality silver projects.
The Company holds an option to acquire a
100%-interest in its flagship project, the past-producing Candelaria Mine located in Nevada.
Potential reprocessing of silver
from the historic leach pads at Candelaria provides an opportunity for possible near-term production.
Additional opportunities lie
in previously identified high-grade silver intercepts down-dip and potentially increasing the substantive silver mineralization
along-strike from the two past-producing open pits.
The Company has staked 636 lode claims and entered into a Lease/Purchase Agreement to acquire five patented claims on its
Cherokee project located in Lincoln County, Nevada, host to multiple silver-copper-gold vein systems,
traced to date for over 11
km along-strike.
In addition, the Company also holds a 100% interest in three significant silver assets located in Mexico — Peñasco Quemado,
Sonora; La Frazada, Nayarit; and Pluton, Durango, acquired from First Mining Gold, one of the Company's largest shareholders.
