SilverCrest Expands Las Chispas Inferred Resource 4.3 Million Tonnes at 3.68 gpt Au and 347 gpt Ag, or 623 gpt AgEq for 87 Million Oz AgEq; Includes 1.6 Million Tonnes at 1,091 gpt AgEq for 56 Million Oz AgEq

N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng and CEO, remarked, “The delivery of this updated resource estimate is another major milestone for SilverCrest as we continue to systematically expand high-grade mineralization in the Las Chispas district. In the spring of 2018, we started our Phase III drill program with a Q3 target of 75 to 85 million ounces silver equivalent at a grade of around 600 gpt AgEq. With the recent expansion and discovery of multiple high-grade veins and zones, this target has been exceeded with an updated Inferred Resource of 4.3 million tonnes grading 623 gpt AgEq for an estimated 86.7 million AgEq ounces. The most exciting aspects of this resource update are the high-grade resources identified in the Area 51 zone of the Babicanora Vein and the Babicanora Norte Vein.”
