NEWS RELEASE
SILVER STORM DRILLS 1,335 g/t Ag.Eq OVER 3.7 m
WITHIN BROADER INTERVAL OF 618 g/t Ag.Eq OVER 18 m IN C460 ZONE
AND EXTENDS HIGH-GRADE ZONE 138 m AT DEPTH
Toronto, Ontario, January 9, 2025: Silver Storm Mining Ltd. (“ Silver Storm” or the " Company")
(TSX.V: SVRS | OTC: SVRSF | FSE: SVR) , is pleased to announce drill results from its Phase 2
diamond drilling program at the Company’s 100% owned La Parrilla Silver Mine Complex, located in
Durango Mexico. Results from the 10 holes (1,406 metres (“m”)) contained within this release are from
the C460 Zone, within the Quebradillas mine. The Company also provides a n update on i ts non-
brokered private placement offering (the “Offering”).

Key highlights include:
Numerous high-grade intercepts were encountered within the C460 Zone up to 138 m beyond the last
mined levels where the following channel samples and mining widths were observed (Figures 2 & 3):
• 1767 EL graded 974 g/t Ag.Eq1 over a strike length of 23 m and an average width of 2.9 m.
• 1743 EL graded 552 g/t Ag.Eq over a strike length of 50 m and an average width of 1.4 m.
• 1740 EL graded 928 g/t Ag.Eq over a strike length of 31 m and an average width of 1.9 m.
• 1725 EL graded 780 g/t Ag.Eq over a strike length of 43 m and an average width of 1.8 m.
The current drill results, when combined with historical holes drilled by First Majestic Silver
Corp., are expected to have a positive impact on future Mineral Resources.
• Hole Q-24-047 successfully returned 1,335 g/t Ag.Eq over 3.68 m, 1,569 g/t Ag.Eq over 2.10
m, and 913 g/t Ag.Eq over 2.55 m within a broader interval of 618 g/t Ag.Eq over 18.04 m
approximately 20 m down dip from the 1725 EL stope, and 25 m down dip from hole Q-23-023
which returned 347 g/t Ag.Eq over 9.65 m.
• Hole Q-24-049 returned 1,781 g/t Ag.Eq over 1.03 m within a broader interval of 958 g/t
Ag.Eq over 2.03 m, and 549 g/t Ag.Eq over 0.44 m and 680 g/t Ag.Eq over 0.42 m within a
broader interval of 322 g/t Ag.Eq over 1.70 m, approximately 25 m down dip from the 1743 EL
stope.
• Hole Q -24-048 returned 457 g/t Ag.Eq over 0.90 m and 439 g/t Ag.Eq over 1.35 m
approximately 37 m down dip from the 1740 EL stope and 24 m up dip and to the north of Q-
24-047.
• Hole Q-24-053 returned 759 g/t Ag.Eq over 2.00 m within a broader interval of 380 g/t Ag.Eq
over 7.00 m approximately 67 m down dip from the 1725 EL stope.
• Hole Q-24-057 returned 696 g/t Ag.Eq over 2.02 m within a broader interval of 396 g/t over
5.52 m approximately 50 m down dip and south of hole Q-23-022A which returned 2,361 g/t
Ag.Eq over 2.60 m and 1,266 g/t Ag.Eq over 2.15 m within a broader interval of 911 g/t
Ag.Eq over 13.05 m. This intercept is located approximately 138 m down dip from the 1767
EL stope where the composited weighted average grades from historical channel samples,
which are representative of the mineralization mined from this area, returned 974 g/t Ag.Eq
over a strike length of 23 m and an average width of 2.9 m.
Greg McKenzie, President and CEO, commented: “The C460 Zone drill results reported today are
indicative of the importance of this zone in a restart of operations. Hole Q -24-057 returned 696 g/t
Ag.Eq over 2.02 m approximately 138 m below the 1767 EL stope , combined with previously
reported holes Q-23-020 grading 1,810 g/t Ag.Eq over 14.6 m and Q-23-022A grading 911 g/t Ag.Eq
over 13.05 m , also beneath the 1767 EL stope, demonstrate the high -grade potential of th is
undeveloped 138 m section of the southern C460 Zone. Our excellent follow-up high-grade drill results
to date , which are in proximity to previous production stopes with high -grade historical channel
samples, shows the potential for expansion of high-grade mining in C460.”
C460 Zone
The C460 Zone is a sulphide replacement vein striking 344 degrees and dipping 63 degrees to the
northeast with a known strike length of 425 m (Figure 1). The zone is mineralized over a vertical extent
of 570 m and its thickness varies up to 8.5 m. The replacement vein is concordant to bedding in the
sediments and mineralization is comprised of pyrite, pyrrhotite, galena, sphalerite, arsenopyrite,
acanthite, and freibergite. Phase 2 drilling consisted of 10 diamond drill holes (1,406 m) following up
on the success of holes Q-23-020, reported in the Company’s news release dated January 4, 2024,
and Q-23-021 to Q-23-023, reported in the Company’s news release dated February 22, 2024.

(1) All results in this release are rounded. Assays are uncut and undiluted. Widths are core -lengths, not true
widths. Silver equivalent: Ag.Eq g/t was calculated using commodity prices of US$22.50 /oz Ag, US$1,800 /oz
Au, US$0.94 /lb Pb, and US$1.35 /lb Zn applying metallur gical recoveries of 70.1% for silver and 82.8% for
gold in oxides and 79.6% for silver, 80.1% for gold, 74.7% for lead and 58.8% for zinc in sulphides. Metal
payable used was 99.6% for silver and 95% for gold in doré produced from oxides , and 95% for silver, gold,
and lead and 85% for zinc in concentrates produced from sulphides. Cut-off grades considered for oxide and
sulphide were, respectively 140 g/t Ag .Eq and 125 g/t Ag.Eq and are based on 2017 costs adjusted by the
inflation rate and include sustaining costs.
(2) Weighted average grades were calculated over the mineralized widths of each channel across the stope
(Figures 2 & 3).
Sample Analysis and QA/QC Program
Silver Storm uses a quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program that monitors the chain of
custody of samples and includes the insertion of blanks, duplicates, and reference standards in each
batch of samples sent for analysis. The drill core is photographed, logged, and cut in half , with one
half retained in a secured location for verification purposes and one half shipped for analysis. Sample
preparation (crushing and pulverizing) is performed at ALS Geochemistry, an independent ISO
9001:2001 certified laboratory, in Zacatecas, Mexi co and pulps are sent to ALS Geochemistry in
Vancouver, Canada for analysis. The entire sample is crushed to 70% passing -2 mm, and a riffle split
of 250 grams is taken and pulverized to better than 85% passin g 75 microns. Samples are analyzed
for gold using a standard fire assay with Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) (Au-AA23) from a 30-
gram pulp. Gold assays greater than 10 g/t are re -analyzed on a 30 -gram pulp by fire assay with a
gravimetric finish (Au -GRA21). Samples are also analyzed using a 34 element inductively coupled
plasma (ICP) method with atomic emission spectroscopy (AES) on a pulp digested by four acids (ME-
ICP61). Overlimit sample values for silver (>100 g/t), lead (>1%), zinc (>1%), and copp er (>1%) are
re-assayed using a four-acid digestion overlimit method with ICP-AES (ME-OG62). For silver values
greater than 1,500 g/t, samples are re-assayed using a fire assay with gravimetric finish on a 30-gram
pulp (Ag-GRA21). Samples with lead values over 20% are re -assayed using volumetric titration with
EDTA on a 1-gram pulp (Pb-VOL70). No QA/QC issues were noted with the results reported herein.

About Silver Storm Mining Ltd.
Silver Storm Mining Ltd. holds advanced-stage silver projects located in Durango, Mexico. In August
2023 Silver Storm completed the acquisition of 100% of the La Parrilla Silver Mine Complex, a prolific
operation which is comprised of a 2,000 tpd mill as well as five underground mines and an open pit
that collectively produced 34.3 million silver -equivalent ounces betwee n 2005 and 2019. The
Company also holds a 100% interest in the San Diego Project , which is among the largest
undeveloped silver assets in Mexico. For more information reg arding the Company and its projects,
