Slocan Silver Camp

KLONDIKE SILVER KS: TSX-V

Page 6: Klondike Silver Corporate Brochure

Since 2000, Klondike Silver Corp. has maintained a dominant presence in the Slocan Silver Camp of British Columbia, an area rich in silver that has been explored since the first discoveries in the region in 1891. The Slocan silver camp has a rich history, having produced more than 2 million kilograms of silver, 262 million kilograms of lead and 258 million kilograms of zinc since its discovery. Klondike Silver continues this legacy today. The Company’s assets include 68 past producing mines, a 100 ton per day flotation mill in Sandon and over 100 square kilometres of prospective exploration lands. Underexplored by modern exploration techniques, this land has seen little modern exploration because of the previous fragmented ownership and the presence of overburden. The Klondike Silver Land Package represents prime hunting ground for important new silver/zinc/lead rich discoveries. Including an area on strike with the Main Lode: an 8 kilometre long structure that hosted the biggest producing mines in the area. 6

Page 7: Klondike Silver Corporate Brochure

In addition to underground drilling and exploration programs within the most prospective of the past producing mines, exploration programs will use advanced geophysical, geochemical and other modern exploration techniques to explore for extensions of known near surface veins and new vein-hosted targets obscured by overburden. Regional and underground exploration is assisted by a number of seasoned geologists that have decades of experience in this mining camp. See slide 16 – 2017 Work Program.

Area History: Silver-rich lead/zinc deposits discovered in 1891. • 173 past-producing mines located in the Slocan Silver Camp.* • 5 million tons* of silver-rich mineralization was processed resulting in the

production of: 69.6 million ounces of Silver* 579 million pounds of Lead* 569 million pounds of Zinc*

Geology: • A series of silver-rich veins in Slocan Series Quartzite Sediments. • At 9 km long, the Main Lode is the largest and most prolific vein. Klondike

Silver’s land package includes over half of the Main Lode structure and, of that, 1.5 km is virtually unexplored.

• One of the few remaining under-explored mining camps of its kind in Canada.

• Klondike Silver amalgamated many of the fragmented mineral claims

and crown grants located in the Slocan Silver Camp into one contiguous land package - over one hundred square kilometres.

• Klondike Silver’s land package contains over 58% of the historical

silver production in the Slocan Silver Camp. Klondike Silver’s land package produced 40.4 million troy oz of silver.*

• The Silvana Mine was the largest producer of the 68 historical

producers in the Klondike Silver land package: Over 500,000 tons of rock was processed yielding 7,812,077 oz silver,

63,253,498 pounds lead and 57,981,253 pounds zinc. The average Silvana production grade was 13.87 oz/ton silver, 5.62% lead and 5.15% zinc.
