VANCOUVER, BRITISH
COLUMBIA–(MarketwiredJuly 2, 2014) –
GREAT
PANTHER SILVER LIMITED
(TSX:GPR)(NYSE MKT:GPL) (the “Company”)
is providing an update to its Mineral Resources at its 100% owned San
Ignacio Silver-Gold Mine
in Guanajuato,
Mexico
(the “April 2014 Mineral Resource
Estimate”).

The April 2014
Mineral Resource Estimate totals 1.245 million silver equivalent ounces
(“Ag eq oz”) of Indicated Mineral Resources and 5.645 million Ag eq
oz of Inferred Mineral Resources at a cut-off of 125 grams per tonne
(“g/t”) silver equivalent.

The Indicated Mineral
Resource is a new addition, comprising 103,000 tonnes at 165g/t silver and
3.54g/t gold and incorporates detailed infill drilling completed in the fourth
quarter of 2013 (see news release December 16, 2013), and data
from mine development along the Intermediate vein. The Inferred Mineral
Resource totals 737,000 tonnes at 115g/t silver and 2.04g/t gold. The breakdown
for the estimate is provided in Table 1.

Recent drilling enabled
upgrading a portion of the Inferred Mineral Resource from the Intermediate vein
to the Indicated Mineral Resource category. The upgrade resulted in an 18%
decrease in Inferred Resources when compared to the 2012 estimate as noted in
Table 2. Inferred Mineral Resources are unchanged for the Melladito and Nombre
de Dios
1 and 2 veins.

The goal of recent
exploration work was to increase confidence in the Mineral Resources of the
Intermediate vein. The Company completed 13 infill drill holes into the vein
development (see news release dated December 16, 2013) and
collected 112 chip samples from 200 metres of underground mine development.
Overall Mineral Resources at San Ignacio considered 91 drill holes completed
between sections 450N and 1100N (up to hole ESI13-116), as well as 112
underground chip samples.

The mineralization at San
Ignacio is hosted in classic epithermal quartz-calcite veins. The geologic
interpretation was based on diamond drilling and surface and underground
mapping. Veins were modelled to a 1.5 metre minimum width and raw assays were
composited to the intersection width of the wireframes. The drill-hole and
underground composites were used in the estimate of block grades using the
Inverse Distance to the second power (ID2). Volumes were converted
to tonnages using 2.63t/m3, which were based on results from density
tests completed on 313 drill core samples captured by the wireframes.

This Mineral Resource
Estimate has an effective date of April 6, 2014 and was
classified as Indicated and Inferred according to the CIM Definition Standards
on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves and is consistent with the
requirements of NI 43-101. Analysis of underground mine samples and drill-core
samples was performed by SGS Minerals Services in the Company’s Guanajuato,
Mexico
laboratory.

Areas of interest for the
2014 drill program will be the extension of the drilling south along the
Intermediate vein and some infill drilling on the Melladito and Nombre
de Dios
1 and 2 veins.
