Silver North Completes Drilling at Haldane Property
·Two holes successfully intersect Main Fault, confirming a fourth silver vein target at Haldane
·Main Fault expressed as a wide structural zone with the presence of classic Keno-style quartz-siderite+/- sulphide veins and breccias
Vancouver, BC, October 16, 2024 – Silver North Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: SNAG, OTCQB: TARSF) “Silver North” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the 2024 drilling campaign at the wholly owned Haldane Property in the historic Keno Hill Silver District, Yukon, has been completed. A total of 732 metres of drilling was completed in 3 holes testing the West Fault and Main Fault targets. This marks Silver North’s first test of the Main Fault, with two holes successfully intersecting the target in moderately to unoxidized rocks allowing for strong recovery of the vein targets. The 8,579 hectare Haldane Property is located 25 km west of Keno City, YT and hosts numerous occurrences of silver-lead-zinc-bearing quartz siderite veins as seen elsewhere in the district.
“We are very pleased with the progress we made at Haldane in this program,” stated Jason Weber, P.Geo., President and CEO of Silver North. “We have shown that the Main Fault is another viable target with wide intersections of the structure 150 and 190 metres below surface, hosting classic Keno-style veins and breccias with siderite gangue and sulphide mineralization. Regardless of the silver grades returned from these two Main Fault intersections, we can confidently say we have added a fourth viable silver target at Haldane.”
In addition to continuing step out tests of the West Fault target, an important goal of the 2024 program was to test the Main Fault below the level of oxidation for a true representation of this target’s potential for high grade silver mineralization. The surface expression of the Main Fault indicates potential for a large structure, with historical oxidized vein samples at surface averaging 151 g/t silver over 7.6 m and 223 g/t silver over 3.6 m at the Main Zone and Main Zone South showings. Heavily oxidized, poorly recovered intersections in 2011 and 2013 drilling by previous operators intersected similarly anomalous results.
Hole HLD24-29 intersected a somewhat oxidized structure above the Main Fault from 158.6 – 162.0m followed by unoxidized Main Fault breccia and siderite vein from 171.0 to 176.7m. The width of this zone warranted a follow up hole, targeting the structure 50 metres down dip. Hole HLD24-30 accomplished this, intersecting the same partially oxidized structure above the Main Fault from 171.0 – 172.5m and the Main Fault as a much wider, unoxidized, structural zone from 183.5 to 203.0 metres down hole, exhibiting multiple fault splays with strong gouge and breccia zones as well as quartz-siderite+/- sulphide veins. Being the first holes in this target, silver grades cannot be reliably estimated for these intersections, but regardless, the program has successfully shown that the Main Fault is a viable silver target with strong Keno District characteristics indicating its potential to host high grade silver mineralization as seen elsewhere in the district.
A fourth hole at the Bighorn target was dropped from the program due to deteriorating conditions that made drill pad access difficult. Bighorn remains a high priority target and a pad was constructed early in the program that will be available for use in the next drill campaign at Haldane.

Silver North Intersects 1.83 metres True Width of 1,088 g/t Silver, 3.90 g/t Gold, 1.89%
Lead and 0.63% Zinc in New Discovery at Haldane Silver Project, Yukon
•New discovery at the Main Fault consists of multiple silver-bearing structures, elevating Main Fault to a high priority target
•365 g/t silver, 0.23 g/t gold, 1.80% lead and 1.37% zinc over 5.80m true width in HLD24-30
•460 g/t silver, 0.16 g/t gold, 4.34% lead and 1.23% zinc over 3.05m true width in HLD24-29
Vancouver, BC, November 14, 2024 – Silver North Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: SNAG, OTCQB: TARSF) (“Silver North” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce results from the 2024 drilling campaign at the wholly owned Haldane Property in the historic Keno Hill Silver District, Yukon. Drilling confirmed that the Main Fault, marked by a series of silver bearing surface showings, is indeed a productive structure hosting multiple high grade silver-bearing veins and breccias. A total of 732 metres of drilling was completed in 3 holes testing the West Fault and Main Fault targets. The 8,579 hectare Haldane Property is located 25 km west of Keno City, YT, adjacent to Hecla Mining’s producing Keno Hill Silver Mine, and hosts numerous occurrences of silver-lead-zinc-bearing quartz siderite veins as seen elsewhere in the district.
“We consider this a new drill discovery at the Main Fault defined by multiple high grade silver intersections over three separate vein – fault zones. The continuity demonstrated over the 50 metres between holes, and the increased grades and thicknesses encountered down dip in HLD24-30 are extremely encouraging,” stated Jason Weber, P.Geo., president and CEO of Silver North. “We can now elevate the Main Fault to an important silver target where we can potentially delineate new silver resources along with the West Fault target. We will continue to refine our interpretation of these new results to optimize an aggressive drill program to test the Main Fault in 2025.”
Main Fault Target
The Main Fault, thought to be a parallel structure to the West Fault, was targeted in the 2024 drill program based on surface sampling of the fault at the Main and Main South showings where oxidized vein samples on surface average 151 g/t silver over 7.6 m and 223 g/t silver over 3.6 m. Two holes tested this target (HLD24-29 and -30), successfully intersecting a wide structural zone consisting of three siderite-sulphide vein faults and breccias with an interstitial stockwork of siderite bearing veinlets and brecciated host rocks that forms the overall structural zone.
In hole HLD24-29 the widest structural zone returned 13.75m true width (“TW”) of 157 g/t silver, 1.42% lead and 0.67% zinc and blossomed to 28.36m (TW) of 130 g/t silver, 0.55% lead and 0.52% zinc 50 metres down dip in hole 30. High grade oxidized and brecciated siderite vein fault material at the upper boundary returned 1.83m (TW) of 1,088 g/t silver, 3.90 g/t gold, 1.89% lead and 0.63% zinc including 0.73m (TW) of 2,470 g/t silver, 9.64 g/t gold, 3.88% lead and 0.99% zinc in hole HLD24-30. It is notable that these upper boundary intersections are unusually high in gold as compared to other intersections at the Haldane Property. The oxidized nature of these intersections makes it difficult to determine the mineralogy associated with the elevated gold values at this time.

1Silver-equivalent values are calculated assuming 100% recovery using the formula: ((20 * silver (g/t) / 31.1035) + (1650 * gold (g/t) / 31.1035) + (0.90 * 2204 * lead %/100) + (1.10 * 2204 * zinc %/100)) *(31.1035 / 20). Metal price assumptions are US$20/oz silver, US$1650/oz gold, US$0.90/lb lead and US$1.10/lb zinc. While metal prices today are generally higher than those used in the formula, these are the values used for past drilling at Haldane in order to compare past results.

High grade, partially oxidized and strongly brecciated siderite vein fault from the centre of the Main Fault structural zone returned 3.05m (TW) of 460 g/t silver, 0.15 g/t gold, 4.34% lead and 1.23% zinc, including 1.65m (TW) of 777g/t silver, 0.25 g/t gold, 7.86% lead and 2.22% zinc in HLD24-29 and 5.8m (TW) 365 g/t silver, 0.23 g/t gold, 1.80 % lead and 1.37 % zinc 50 meters down dip from HLD24-30.
The best result from the lowermost unoxidized siderite vein and vein fault breccia was an intercept of 0.91m (TW) of 194 g/t silver, 0.18 g/t gold, 0.54% lead and 1.08% zinc from HLD24-30.

West Fault Target
Holes HLD24-29 and -30 potentially tested the very upper portions of the West Fault prior to reaching the Main Fault. The intersections occur high in the hole in very oxidized material. A significant fault zone was intersected in HLD24-29 but was unmineralized while the projected intersection in HLD24-30 was not recovered. Due to the shallow nature of the intersections and associated poor core recovery, management does not believe that this is an adequate test of the West Fault in this area and plans deeper drilling in this area in the future.
Hole HLD24-28, intersected the West Fault but deviated significantly more shallowly than expected and to the west of the intended target pierce point. The hole intersected several narrow discrete siderite-galena-sphalerite veins and siderite veinlets with the best of these returning 0.19m (TW) of 122 g/t silver, 0.169 g/t gold, 2.07% lead and 0.47% zinc. The hole did not close off the interpreted SW plunge of high-grade silver mineralization intersected in 2021 drilling, which remains open at a more steeply oriented plunge.
