NEWS RELEASE
SILVER STORM’S LA PARRILLA MINE LABORATORY CONSTRUCTION
NEARS COMPLETION
Toronto, Ontario, May 05, 2026: Silver Storm Mining Ltd. (“Silver Storm” or the "Company") (TSX.V:
SVRS | OTCQX: SVRSF | FSE: SVR) is pleased to provide an update on the construction of a new
assay and metallurgical sampling laboratory at the Company’s 100% -owned La Parrilla Silver Mine
Complex (“La Parrilla”) in Durango State, Mexico. The Company expects the commissioning process
to be completed by the end of 2Q 2026, at which point the laboratory will become fully operational.
Greg McKenzie, President and CEO, commented, “The new mine laboratory will support potential
operations, development, resource growth, and exploration activities at La Parrilla. With the laboratory
construction nearing completion, Silver Storm is in a strong position to advance the potential 2Q 2026
restart of operating activities alongside the 2026 drilling program at La Parrilla.”

The new laboratory is located on site at La Parrilla and equipped to support sample preparation and
analysis workflows. Silver and gold analysis will be conducted using fire assay with a gravimetric finish
for high -grade samples and an atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) finish for standard -grade
samples. For base metals, analysis will be conducted using AAS following multi-acid digestion. Current
instrumentation includes three pulverising mills, a drying oven, two muffle furnaces dedicated to fusion
and cupellation processes, and two AAS spectrometers. Installation of the extraction system and air
compressor is underway, as these components are essential to ensure safe ty and efficiency prior to
the laboratory becoming fully operational . Construction of the laboratory is nearing completion , and
final commissioning remains on schedule to be completed by the end of 2Q 2026.
The addition of the new laboratory will significantly strengthen the Company’s operational capabilities
by enabling in-house sample preparation and analytical testing, reducing turnaround times for sample
analysis, improving data reliability, and enhancing overall control of the analytical process.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements:
Certain statements in this news release are forward -looking and involve a number of risks and
uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are within the meaning of the phrase ‘forward-looking
information’ in the Canadian Securities Administrators’ Natio nal Instrument 51 -102 – Continuous
Disclosure Obligations. Forward -looking statements are not comprised of historical facts. Forward -
looking statements include estimates and statements that describe the Company’s future plans,
objectives, or goals, including words to the effect that the Company or management and Qualified
Persons (in the case of technical and scientific information) expect a stated condition or result to occur.
Forward-looking statements may be identified by such terms as “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”,
“estimates”, “may”, “could”, “would”, “will”, or “plan”. Since forward -looking statements are based on
assumptions and address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks
and uncertai nties. Although these statements are based on information currently available to the
Company, the Company provides no assurance that actual results will meet management’s
expectations. Risks, uncertainties, and other factors involved with forward -looking information could
cause actual events, results, performance, prospects, and opportunities to differ materially from those
expressed or implied by such forward -looking information. Forward -looking information in this news
release includes but is not limited to: the Company's plans and expectations for La Parrilla; the timeline
for the completion of the construction work at the new mine laboratory at La Parrilla; and the timeline
and ability to place the La Parrilla Silver Mine Complex back into operation.
In making the forward -looking statements included in this news release, the Company has applied
several material assumptions, including , among other things, the absence of material adverse
changes in market conditions, metal prices, permitting status, operating conditions, labour availability,
and access to required equipment, parts, and consumables . The Company cautions that its decision
to potentially restart operations at La Parrilla, and any related production decisions, are largely based
on internal Company data, historical operating results, reports, and engineering assessments and are
not supported by a current mineral reserve estimate prepared in accordance with NI 43 -101,
preliminary economic assessments, pre -feasibility studies, or feasibility studies that demonstrate
economic and technical viability. As a result, there is increased uncertainty and a higher degree of
economic and technical risk associated with any such production decision than would be the case if
such mineral reserves estimates or studies were completed and relied upon to support a production
decision. No mineral reserves have been established for La Parrilla, and mineral resources that are
not reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The absence of mineral reserve estimates
prepared in accordance with NI 43-101, preliminary economic assessments, pre-feasibility studies, or
feasibility studies supporting a production decision increases the uncertainty of achieving any
particular level of mineral recovery or the cost of s uch recovery and heightens the risks associated
with developing a commercially mineable deposit. Historically, projects advanced without the support
of such mineral reserves estimates and studies have experienced a significantly higher incidence of
economic and technical failure. There can be no assurance that production at La Parrilla will
commence as anticipated or at all, or that any anticipated production levels or operating costs will be
achieved. A failure to commence production would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
ability to generate revenue and cash flow to fund its operations. Similarly, a failure to achieve
anticipated production costs would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s cash flow and
future profitability.
Forward-looking statements and information are subject to various known and unknown risks and
uncertainties, many of which are beyond the ability of the Company to control or predict, that may
cause the Company’s actual results, performance , or achievements to be materially different from
those expressed or implied thereby, and are developed based on assumptions about such risks,
uncertainties, and other factors set out herein.
Such forward-looking information represents management ’s and Qualified Persons ’ (in the case of
technical and scientific information) best judgment based on information currently available. No
forward-looking statement can be guaranteed, and actual future results may vary materially.
Accordingly, readers are advised not to place undu e reliance on forward -looking statements or
information.
