Silver Bullet Mines Announces Strategic Business Alliance and $1 Million Debenture Financing

April 8, 2024 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce it is entering into a strategic business agreement (the “Agreement”) with Countryman Investments Limited of British Columbia, Canada (“Countryman”). The Agreement provides that Countryman will provide financial, business development and mining opportunities to the Company. Countryman is an existing SBMI shareholder.
Mr. Dave Richardson, a principal of Countryman, has agreed to join SBMI’s advisory board. Mr. Richardson has a long history in finance and business management, and will assist SBMI in implementing its business plan and expanding its business operations.


As the first phase in the implementation of the Agreement, SBMI intends to issue a convertible debenture (the “Debenture”) in an amount up to $1,000,000.00 to willing investors (“Investors”), issuable in tranches of $1,000.00 with each tranche having 10,000 detachable warrants. Each warrant has a term of three years and is exercisable at $0.12, $0.14, and $0.16 for years 1, 2, and 3 respectively following the issuance of the Debenture. The Debenture will have a three year term and interest will run at a rate of 12% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears during year one and quarterly in arrears during years two and three. Interest will be paid to Investors in cash or in common shares of the Company, at SBMI’s option.


Each Investor at any time can convert its portion of the Debenture, in whole or in part, into common shares of the Company. The conversion price shall be $0.08 during the first twelve months following issuance of the Debenture, $0.10 during the next twelve months of the term of the Debenture, and $0.12 during the final twelve months of the term of the Debenture (the “Conversion Price”).
SBMI can force conversion of the Debenture, in whole or in part, if SBMI’s closing price for its common shares exceeds $0.25 for a period of ten days. The Debenture can be prepaid by SBMI any time after twelve months from the issuance of the Debenture.


Countryman is a subscriber to the Debenture.


The Debenture is subject to regulatory and board approval.

The Agreement and the Debenture provide further financial stability to SBMI. They will enable the Company to complete work required by MSHA at the Buckeye Silver Mine in Arizona, to further work at the Washington Mine in Idaho this year, and to address other corporate matters.


In Arizona, the mill is MSHA approved and functioning properly. Mineralized material which had been stockpiled at the Buckeye Silver Mine is being transported to the mill and stockpiled material at the mill is being processed. The field team is carrying out the work required by MSHA at the Buckeye Silver Mine, which should take between one and three months to complete. Timber has been delivered to the Buckeye Mine Site for timbering. No new material can be extracted from the mine until the work is complete.


SBMI believes the Agreement and the Financing show that the value the Company has created is being recognized by significant stakeholders. It also gives increased depth to the company’s strategic vision for the future.

Silver Bullet Mines Continues Production at its Arizona Mill

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 22, 2024) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) ('SBMI' or 'the Company') is pleased to announce the continuation of operations at its mill near Globe, Arizona, following the completion of work mandated by MSHA. This work was completed on schedule, leaving SBMI with a MSHA-compliant operational mill.

SBMI has stockpiled Buckeye Silver Mine mineralized material at the mill site. Recent muck assays from the Buckeye ran as high as 8 ounces per ton and vein assays as high as 480 ounces per ton silver (see press release of February 5, 2024). SBMI intends to initially run the stockpiled material with assaying to be done throughout each run's production process, using the Company's onsite assay lab. The Company then intends to process the resulting material into dore bars.

Based on the production data and assay results, SBMI will then establish daily, weekly and monthly production targets, and intends to complete outstanding orders.

The Company has a full program that includes mining the Buckeye Silver Mine, processing dore bars, and carrying out a detailed exploration plan, subject to availability of funds.

The Company also announces it has reached an extension agreement with the owner of the lands hosting SBMI's mill, allowing for certain funds to be paid by SBMI on or before August 9, 2024. SBMI has also reached an extension agreement with the holder of the debenture initially due February 6, 2024, which debenture has been extended to June 30, 2024.

Silver Bullet Mines Assays 480 Ounces per Ton Silver (14,929 Grams/ Ton) from Vein in New Zone1

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 5, 2024) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) ('SBMI' or 'the Company') is pleased to announce the assay results from its last blast prior to MSHA inspection and training. Select material collected from the vein assayed as high as 480 ounces per ton silver (see photo).

Sample from Vein in Zone1

 

Random samples of the muck pile associated with that blast assayed 7.0, 3.8, and 8.0 ounces per ton silver. These random samples were not hand selected for grade but were taken directly from the raw material in pails to determine the mineralization in the blast muck. The Company continues to see an increase in the grade of the muck assays with each round, and reasonably believes the grade could continue to increase with each advancing round.

The main reason for this belief is the assay results from that area, which include the December 11, 2023 results of the concentrates averaging 24.2 ounces per ton (829.7 grams/tonne) silver, with the high grade line on the shaker table then assaying at 334 ounces per ton (11,451.5 grams/tonne). The Company also relies on the high grade silver results reported in its November 11, 2023 press release, and upon other internal assay results which have not been disclosed. As previously disclosed, the Company continually runs its own production assay lab and not all assay results, whether lower or higher than those above, have been or will be disclosed.

This material when combined with the high-grade material should provide excellent feed material to the mill.

SBMI is also pleased to advise its MSHA training has been completed and approved. The field team was back at the mine and mill sites making the necessary changes required by MSHA, and plans to commence production upon completion of those changes. The Company will provide a projected production schedule in the near future.

The Company is pleased with both the continued improvement in the head grade at the mine as well as the successful completion of its MSHA training and approval.

Silver Bullet Provides Operational Update in Arizona and Announces Second Tranche of Financing

January 9, 2024 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to provide an update on mine and mill operations in Globe, Arizona.

As part of the normal course mining procedures, both the federal Mining Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) and the state Mine Inspector completed their respective first mine inspections at the Buckeye Silver Mine on December 21 and 22, 2023, resulting in a request to make minor changes to the mine site. No major changes were requested. These minor changes are underway.

SBMI has been assigned both a mine and mill number from (MSHA) and the state Mine Inspector. SBMI’s first mine safety report filed with MSHA is currently under review and a response is anticipated in the near future. This regulatory step represents a significant move forward as SBMI transitions from a development company to commercial production.

Upon completion of the minor changes to the Buckeye Mine site, SBMI’s plan is to continue mining in Zone1, to muck out the mineralized material, to truck that material to the mill, and to process the material through the mill resulting in commercial production. It is believed the mineralized material from Zone1 will consist of higher grade silver material.

The main reason for this belief is the assay results from that area, which include the December 11, 2023 results of the concentrates averaging 24.2 ounces per ton (829.7 grams/tonne) silver, with the high grade line on the shaker table then assaying at 334 ounces per ton (11,451.5 grams/tonne). The Company also relies on the high grade silver results reported in its November 11, 2023 press release, and upon other internal assay results which have not been disclosed. As previously disclosed, the Company continually runs its own production assay lab and not all assay results, whether lower or higher than those above, have been or will be disclosed.

There is some lower grade material already stockpiled at the mill, ready to be blended with the anticipated higher grade material.

SBMI also announces it has closed the second and final tranche of the non-brokered financing (the “Financing”) previously announced on October 25, 2023. The second tranche of the Financing consisted of $98,925 by way of units (each, a “Unit”) priced at $0.12 cents per Unit, resulting in the issuance of 819,042 Units. Each Unit consisted of one common share and a full warrant exercisable into one common share at $0.17 for a term of 2 years. There is no acceleration clause on these $0.17 warrants. One insider participated in the Financing. One insider participated in the Financing. Finders fees paid to arm’s length parties were $2,604 in cash and 21,700 broker warrants.

The participation of one insider constitutes a related party transaction for the purposes of Multilateral Instrument 61-101, Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. The company is relying upon exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 in completing the offering with the insider on the basis that the fair market value of such participation is less than 25 per cent of Silver Bullet Mines' current market capitalization.

Silver Bullet Closes First Tranche of Financing

Each Unit consisted of one common share and a full warrant exercisable into one common share at $0.17 for a term of 2 years. There is no acceleration clause on these $0.17 warrants.

Silver Bullet Proves up Silver in Zone1 with Successful Bulk Sample and Produces 334 ounces per ton (11,451.5 grams/tonne) Silver Concentrate

December 11, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announced on December 8, 2023 it had begun processing a bulk sample of mixed mineralized material from Zone1 at the Buckeye Silver Mine.

SBMI is pleased to announce it has successfully completed processing that bulk sample of 40 tons (36.29 tonnes), in less time than expected. The purposes of processing the bulk sample were to confirm the high grade nature of Zone1 and its recovery rates, and to confirm the mill’s ability to process a large amount of material from Zone1. Processing was successful on all counts.

The concentrates averaged 24.2 ounces per ton (829.7 grams/tonne) silver. The high grade line on the shaker table (see photo below) assayed at 334 ounces per ton (11,451.5 grams/tonne) recovered and to the field team’s visual observations showed native silver.

“The entire team is encouraged by these results and by the mill proving its ability to process Zone1 material. This marks a significant advancement in Silver Bullet Mines' journey towards reaching our next milestone: full production,” said John Carter.

The next step in the milling process for this material is magnetic separation of the concentrates to remove the iron and any associated PGMs it may contain. Those will be stored to be reviewed at a later time. Then the silver dore bars will be poured. SBMI expects those bars to be poured and ready for shipping in the near future.

 

Processing the material from Zone1 required simple adjustments to be made to the mill due to the higher grade material. The design of the mill allowed for these adjustments to be easily made.

The Company interprets these and the prior disclosed results as proving up the higher grade silver from Zone1. SBMI plans to now commence processing Zone1 materials on a larger scale. 

SBMI will continue to stockpile material from Zone1 at the minesite. This material will be trucked to the mill as trucks are available.

Mining continues in Zone1 at the Buckeye Silver Mine where the vein is approximately 20 feet wide. Water has been noted in recent drill holes, which could indicate a contact zone which could alter the grade of the silver.

"This is the best material I have seen yet and I believe it is because we are in the outer zone of the historic targets that were drilled into back in 1969," said Ron Murphy, SBMI’s Vice President, Mining.

QA/QC

The material from the Buckeye Silver Mine is assayed at multiple stages of the process. The assay results will provide input as to any adjustments that may be necessary to improve production efficiencies and grade.

Channel samples and grab samples are taken after each blast, to be processed at the Company’s production assay lab located at the mill. In accordance with best practices, multiple assays have been and should continue to be sent to third party ISO-accredited labs for multielement analysis including precious metals and PGMs. Readers are cautioned that these samples may not be representative of the Buckeye Mine as a whole, and not all assay results will be disclosed.

All samples above were analyzed by SBMI at its facility near Globe, Arizona. They were processed through the Lab Jaw Crusher, Lab Hammer Mill and Splitter Box into an aliquot. Most of the pulverized aliquot was mixed with a flux and flour combination and melted in a crucible at 1,850 degree Fahrenheit, with the remainder being logged and archived. Upon cooling, the poured melt was in the form of a metal button and slag, following which a bone ash cupel was utilized to eliminate the lead in the button to form a bead. The bead was then weighed, following which a solution of 6 to 1 distilled water to nitric acid was utilized to dissolve the silver in the bead at approximately 175 degrees Fahrenheit.

Silver Bullet Announces John Kontak has Joined the Board, and Provides an update on Continuing Silver Processing

Silver Bullet Announces John Kontak has Joined the Board, and Provides an update on Continuing Silver Processing

November 30, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. John Kontak to its board of directors. Mr. Kontak has extensive experience as a director and officer of public resource companies, most recently as President and Director of West Red Lake Gold Mines Inc. Mr. Kontak is a graduate of Dalhousie Law School, holds an MBA from Suffolk University in Boston, and is a dual citizen of Canada and the United States of America. Mr. Kontak’s appointment is subject to regulatory approval.

SBMI also announces shipping of mineralized material from Zone1 at the Buckeye Mine to the mill has begun. The first trucks recently began loading at the mine site as the next important step towards continuing processing at the mill. (A video of the first truck being loaded can be found at the Company’s home page Silver Bullet Mines Inc.) Processing will continue once sufficient material from Zone1 is delivered to the mill to provide for efficiencies. The Company plans to run this material as a bulk sample to provide a consistent head grade, and to determine and maximize recoveries.

Continual sampling and assaying will take place at all stages of the milling process. SBMI will use this data to determine the best blend of material to attain the highest recovery rates and to make the necessary adjustments to the process. It is anticipated this run should start in the near future, resulting in the pouring of saleable dore bars.

The Company continues to mine at Zone1 at the Buckeye. Mining is taking place approximately 735 feet from the portal where the vein continues to be over 19 feet wide. Recently six samples taken from the vein face and the floor ranged from 11.0 to 24.2 ounces per ton silver and averaged 16.2 ounces per ton silver.

QA/QC

All samples referred to above were processed at the Company’s production assay lab located at the mill. In accordance with best practices, multiple assays have been and should continue to be sent to third party ISO-accredited labs for multielement analysis including precious metals and PGMs. Readers are cautioned that these samples may not be representative of the Buckeye Mine as a whole.

All samples above were analyzed by SBMI at its facility near Globe, Arizona. They were processed through the Lab Jaw Crusher, Lab Hammer Mill and Splitter Box into an aliquot. Most of the pulverized aliquot was mixed with a flux and flour combination and melted in a crucible at 1,850 degree Fahrenheit, with the remainder being logged and archived. Upon cooling, the poured melt was in the form of a metal button and slag, following which a bone ash cupel was utilized to eliminate the lead in the button to form a bead. The bead was then weighed, following which a solution of 6 to 1 distilled water to nitric acid was utilized to dissolve the silver in the bead at approximately 175 degrees Fahrenheit.

Silver Bullet Announces Assay Results of up to 24.2 oz/ton Silver from Zone1 and the Commencement of Milling

November 27, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce high grade silver results as it moves to the next stage in the development of the new Zone1, as outlined in previous press releases.

In its press release of November 1, 2023, SBMI advised it was continuing to blast and muck in Zone1 towards what management believed to be a volume of higher grade silver mineralization. Since then, in the last three blasts the vein width significantly increased to over 19 feet wide, with current assays of up to 24.2 oz/ton silver from the new muck piles and directly from the vein (see chart below). This is significant as the Company believes it is very close to the 1969 historical drill holes, and expects the grade to increase in future blasts. It also provides strong support for management’s theory of the grade increasing as blasting penetrates further into Zone1.

SAMPLE I.D       Silver    [oz/ton]           [grams/tonne]

 

1A                                     17.6                    603.4

1B                                     17.4                    596.6

1C                                     18.0                    617.1

 

2A                                     11.0                    377.1

2B                                     12.8                    438.9

2C                                     12.8                    438.9

3A                                      20.2                   692.6

3B                                      18.8                   644.6

3C                                      20.2                   692.6

4A                                      24.2                   829.7

4B                                      24.2                   829.7

4C                                      24.2                   829.7

 

“These results validate our interpretation of the historical and current data,” said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “The grades are increasing the further we blast into Zone1, as we expected. After battling through Covid, severe supply chain challenges, Mother Nature and unexpected price increases, it is rewarding to be hitting our targetted area, almost exactly where we expected it to be.”

As a result of these grades, management believes the recently blasted material to be economically viable and therefore is being prepared for transportation to the mill for processing. Upon receipt of the material the Company will restart the mill. SBMI is working with a transport company to arrange transportation to the mill.

The Company believes that due to the nugget effect nature of the host rock, milling could increase or decrease the overall grade.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                                                  Close up on vein face as of Nov 17/23

SBMI believes Zone1 to be the zone outlined in the historical data, including the 1969 drill results, and could contain a significant quantity of silver and other metals. The Company intends to continue to drill and blast in Zone1.

As described in the November 1, 2023 press release, a third party has advised it intends to soon send 900 pounds of gold concentrate to SBMI’s mill for processing into a higher purity product. SBMI and the third party will agree upon commercial terms once SBMI has had an opportunity to inspect the gold concentrate. Only minor changes will be made to the mill to enable the processing of the concentrate.

QA/QC

Channel samples and grab samples are taken after each blast, to be processed at the Company’s production assay lab located at the mill. In accordance with best practices, multiple assays have been and should continue to be sent to third party ISO-accredited labs for multielement analysis including precious metals and PGMs. Readers are cautioned that these samples may not be representative of the Buckeye Mine as a whole.

Samples 1, 2 and 3 were processed on November 17, 2023. Sample 4 was processed on November 22, 2023. All samples were run in triplicate.

All samples above were analyzed by SBMI at its facility near Globe, Arizona. They were processed through the Lab Jaw Crusher, Lab Hammer Mill and Splitter Box into an aliquot. Most of the pulverized aliquot was mixed with a flux and flour combination and melted in a crucible at 1,850 degree Fahrenheit, with the remainder being logged and archived. Upon cooling, the poured melt was in the form of a metal button and slag, following which a bone ash cupel was utilized to eliminate the lead in the button to form a bead. The bead was then weighed, following which a solution of 6 to 1 distilled water to nitric acid was utilized to dissolve the silver in the bead at approximately 175 degrees Fahrenheit.

Silver Bullet Mines Announces Potential Third Revenue Stream from Gold Processing

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 1, 2023) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) ('SBMI' or 'the Company') announces a third potential revenue stream. This potential revenue stream flows from SBMI's relationship with a lender announced earlier this year.

Earlier this year SBMI announced it had entered into an agreement with an arm's length third party (the "Investor/Client") for the amount of USD$350,000. This investment was structured as a loan having a five year term and a zero per cent interest rate. Following extensive due diligence of SBMI's operations, the Investor/Client asked SBMI to work with it to advance other projects in which the Investor/Client is involved. The first two such projects under consideration were in Arizona and Colorado.

The Investor/Client and SBMI have entered into a verbal agreement whereby the Investor/Client will ship approximately 900 pounds of what it advises to be high grade gold concentrate to SBMI's mill in Globe, Arizona from an Investor/Client mine in Colorado, to be processed through SBMI's modular processing facility. SBMI expects to receive the material in early November, following which it intends to run the material through its system to determine recovery, develop a process flowsheet, and ultimately pour gold dore bars.

The design of SBMI's 100% owned mill affords the flexibility to process many different types of material and optimize the resulting output with its state of the art gravity circuit. The Investor/Client has indicated the facility that produced the concentrate is not capable of processing the material to a purity desired by the Investor/Client. This concentrate may be well suited for SBMI's circuit to yield a higher purity gold product than the other facility could provide.

Remuneration for this work being done for the Investor/Client will be determined after SBMI's receipt of the material and initial evaluation.

The Investor/Client has advised it has a substantial stockpile of similar material to be processed by SBMI's mill, assuming this test run is successful.

If this run is successful, processing material for the Investor/Client is a third potential near-term revenue stream for SBMI, with the other two being silver production out of the Buckeye Silver Mine and silver / gold production from the Washington Mine in Idaho. Production at Idaho will not commence until stable production is achieved in Arizona. The delivery of this material shows the Investor/Client strongly believes SBMI has the capacity and ability to provide the necessary services and achieve the Investor/Client's desired results.

The Company will continue to update as this project moves forward.

SBMI is in discussions with other parties whereby SBMI will process third party material, and the Company will advise as such discussions progress.

At the Buckeye Mine, the team continues to drift in Zone1 towards what management believes is a volume of higher grade silver mineralization.

Silver Bullet Announces High Grade Silver Results from the Treasure Room, and a Financing

October 25, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces:

  1. two sets of high grade assay results from the Treasure Room

  2. initial assay results from the targeted mineralized zone at the Buckeye Mine in Arizona (Zone1),

  3. a financing, and

  4. the re-pricing of warrants.

 

The Treasure Room is located roughly 310 feet from the portal, or roughly halfway to Zone1 along the vein structure. On March 1, 2022 SBMI reported assay results from grab samples from the Treasure Room as follows:

 

GRAB SAMPLES

 

SAMPLE I.D        Silver        [oz/ton]              [ppm]

 

1                                            14.0                 480.2

 

2                                            15.2                 521.4

 

3                                            12.2                 418.5

 

4                                            13.6                 466.5

 

5                                            13.8                 473.3

 

6                                            35.2               1207.4

7                                          125.0               4287.5

 

8                                            20.2                 692.9

 

9                                            21.2                 727.2

Additional selected grab samples were recently taken from the Treasure Room area, whose assay results were 8.6, 90.3, 90.6, and 229.7 ounces per ton silver. Paper thin plates of native silver, analyzed with a hand held XRF, were also observed along certain fractures.

Historically mining was carried out in the Treasure Room, resulting in stopes and drifts. A third set of selected grab samples from various stopes in the Treasure Room were assayed on October 23, 2023 and returned as follows:

  1. from stope 25 - 74.0 Ozs./Ton silver

  2. from stope 32 - 11.6 Ozs./Ton silver

  3. from stope 33 - 212.2 Ozs./Ton silver

  4. from stope 34 - 101.8 Ozs./Ton silver

 

Readers are cautioned that such samples may not be representative of the Treasure Room or the Buckeye Mine as a whole.

SBMI intends to stabilize the Treasure Room and provide other safety measures to allow access to the higher grade material located within the Treasure Room’s continuation of the vein. This will provide an additional supply of mineralized material for the mill and will also assist in refining a plan to mine that section of vein material. The Company believes the Treasure Room likely hosts more higher grade material at depth.

Zone1 begins roughly 700 feet from the portal. Twelve samples were assayed from the body of Zone1, with assay results from these preliminary samples averaging 2 oz per ton silver. Earlier assay results from the contact right edge with Zone1 over an initial width of 4 feet averaged 1 oz silver/t. Both of these averages are in line with management’s expectations. From past observations and past assays, the Company anticipates the silver grade to increase with further penetration into Zone1. Mineralized material will be shipped from Zone1 to the Company’s mill in Globe, Arizona when the grade is high enough to justify the cost of transportation.

Historically gold and copper values were also reported in Zone1. Current visual inspection of the vein material shows materials other than silver, for which SBMI cannot assay at its own onsite assay facility. SBMI has sent multiple samples of such material to an independent ISO 9001 certified lab for multielement analysis including gold and PGM.

The Company suffered through aberrant extremely hot weather in Arizona throughout most of August, 2023. For example, the temperature on the concrete ball mill pad during this period on occasion exceeded 150 degrees Fahrenheit. A wildfire proximate to the Buckeye Mine during that period caused by lightning further impeded SBMI’s efforts. The Company was unable to carry out work at the mill or at the Buckeye Mine during that period, and as a result was not able to generate cash flow. The Company now intends to bolster its financial position as it continues with operations.

SBMI intends to carry out a non-brokered financing (the “Financing”) of $500,000.00 by way of a private placement of units (each, a “Unit”) priced at $0.12 cents per Unit, resulting in the issuance of 4,166,666 shares. Each Unit will consist of one common share and a full warrant exercisable into one common share at $0.17 for a term of 2 years. There is no acceleration clause on these $0.17 warrants.

The Company also announces its intention to re-price previously issued warrants. SBMI intends to re-price all previously issued $0.60 warrants to $0.24, all previously issued $.50 warrants to $0.20, and all previously issued $0.30 warrants to $0.13. Regulatory approval is required for the Financing and to re-price warrants.

The Financing and the re-pricing of warrants are subject to regulatory approval.

QA/QC

All samples above were analyzed by SBMI at its facility near Globe, Arizona. They were processed through the Lab Jaw Crusher, Lab Hammer Mill and Splitter Box into an aliquot. Most of the pulverized aliquot was mixed with a flux and flour combination and melted in a crucible at 1,850 degree Fahrenheit, with the remainder being logged and archived. Upon cooling, the poured melt was in the form of a metal button and slag, following which a bone ash cupel was utilized to eliminate the lead in the button to form a bead. The bead was then weighed, following which a solution of 6 to 1 distilled water to nitric acid was utilized to dissolve the silver in the bead at approximately 175 degrees Fahrenheit. A much more detailed description of the process and a picture of the assay lab can be found at https://www.silverbulletmines.com/qaqcassaylab.

The SBMI facilities have been designed for quick production grade control and are not ISO compliant; however, duplicate sampling with other ISO labs has been done on past samples with good correlation.

Silver Bullet Announces Interception of Targeted Higher-Grade Silver Zone 

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - October 11, 2023) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) ('SBMI' or 'the Company') announces the Company has intercepted the targeted mineralized zone at the Buckeye Mine in Arizona (the "Zone"). Based upon historical data, management expects the Zone to contain higher-grade silver mineralization. Confirmation will depend upon multiple rounds of sampling.

To target the Zone, SBMI has been working from its field team's intensive knowledge of the area, assay data from historical drill holes drilled in 1969, mapping carried out in and around 1969, informal reports generated from such holes and mapping, actual field results as SBMI's team drifted along the vein behind the Treasure Room, and the results of a recent LIDAR study. (As previously disclosed, the Company's information related to those historical drill holes, the historical assaying of them, and the informal reports, do not meet NI43-101 standards and cannot be disclosed.

In its September 9, 2023 press release, and in other materials dating back to March, 2022, the Company advised, "The team now continues to drift along the vein towards a targetted area." Management expects assay results from current and pending sampling should confirm the Zone has been hit, located where management believed it would be, based upon historical and current data. The Company is especially pleased that the historical data upon which it relied, has confirmed to be the actual location of the Zone, and can be further relied upon (see photo of targeted zone with iron oxide on right, vein and water course on left indicating fault and of the significant mineralization encountered in the zone).

In particular, SBMI drifted 708 feet from the portal, drifted behind the Treasure Room (which is not yet safe to work in), blasted through harder-than-expected host rock, and earlier this week drilled and blasted into the Zone approximately 30 feet from the projected drill holes left by a previous optionee in 1969. The assay data from those historical drill holes informed SBMI's decision to target this zone; however, none were generally disclosed to the public. Please see the caution above.

SBMI plans to continue mining along the vein, refine a plan to maximize recovery of the metals from the Zone, and begin shipping mineralized material from the Zone to its 100%-owned mill in Globe, Arizona for processing. Multiple rounds of samples from the vein and the Zone will be collected and then assayed at SBMI's 100%-owned assay facility. SBMI also intends to send samples to an independent third party lab for confirmation analysis and for analysis for other metals.

The Company continues to seek further data to inform its knowledge of local structures, the vein and the Zone. The Company recently contracted a Ground Penetrating Radar System study to outline the potential size and location of the Zone. The contractor for the study has advised it will use an OKM Future Walkabout 2003/5 ground penetrating radar unit that can detect historical tunnels, shafts and drifts, as well as native gold, native silver and other metals up to 60 feet deep.

The contractor has advised the company that the ground penetrating radar unit uses an electronic pulse method to select an anomaly in the Zone such as natural features, a formation of strata, hollow spaces, level groundwater, buried objects, pipes, tanks, boxes and other targets. The Company intends to further engage the contractor to help determine the overall extent of the Zone, the vein system and potential parallel structures.

The mine road was recently bladed in part by the United States Forest Service as part of its firefighting efforts. The mill has been test run, the fuel and water supply maximized, and the mill crew and assay teams are on standby. In conclusion, pending the sampling results, the mine and the mill are ready to be put into steady production.

Mr. Robert G. Komarechka, P.Geo., an independent consultant, has reviewed and verified SBMI's work referred to herein, and is the Qualified Person for this release.

SBMI also announces that MNP LLP (the "Successor Auditor") have been appointed as the company's new auditor effective September 15, 2023, replacing Grant Thornton LLP, (the "Former Auditor").

Reporting notices prepared in accordance with National Instrument 51-102 ("NI 51-102") by the Former Auditor, the Successor Auditor and the Company have been filed on SEDAR.

There are no disagreements or consultations (as those terms are defined in NI 51-102) in connection with the change of auditor nor have there been any reservations or modifications in the Former Auditor's reports on the Company's financial statements relating to the period during which it was auditor.

No "reportable event" as defined in NI 51-102, has occurred in connection with the audit of the most recently completed fiscal year of the Company, nor any period from the most recently completed fiscal years of the Company for which Grant Thornton LLP issued an audit report and the date of the Notice.

The termination of Grant Thornton LLP, and appointment of MNP LLP, as auditor of the Company were considered and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.

Silver Bullet Announces Investment and Continuation of Mining in Arizona 

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 7, 2023) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) ('SBMI' or 'the Company') announces the continuation of mining operations at the Buckeye Mine in Arizona and a cash infusion.

The aberrant extremely hot weather continued in Arizona throughout most of August, preventing work from then being carried out at the mill or at the Buckeye Mine. The temperature on the concrete mill pad during this period on occasion exceeded 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Running the mill in such hot weather would have been a danger to the proper functioning of the equipment. Mining, whether during the day or at night, would have been an unacceptable safety risk to the field team.

The hot weather has finally abated and the Company is pleased to announce the continuation of mining operations at the Buckeye Mine. Processing material at the mill should continue within roughly one month.

SBMI has been advised by the United States Forest Service that in August, 2023 lightning caused a fire near the Buckeye Mine. The USFS graded the road leading to the Buckeye Mine to allow it to bring in equipment needed to fight the fire.

The annual taxes on the BLM lands comprising part of the Black Diamond property, which surrounds the Buckeye Mine, have been paid.

SBMI is pleased to announce it has entered into an agreement with an arm's length third party (the "Investor") for the amount of USD$350,000. This investment is structured as a loan having a five year term and a zero per cent interest rate. The first tranche of this investment is USD$225,000 which has been received by SBMI, and the second tranche of USD$125,000 is contemplated to be forwarded to SBMI five days after the first shipment of silver dore has been received by the Investor. The loan is secured by two pieces of equipment onsite in Arizona.

This relationship with the Investor should allow SBMI to better execute its business model, substantially increase its revenue and expand its operations.

The Investor carried out an extensive due diligence review on SBMI, including a site visit to the Buckeye Mine and the mill, and including metallurgy on sample dore bars from the Buckeye. As a result of such extensive review, the Investor has asked SBMI to work with it to advance other projects in which the Investor is involved. The first two such projects under consideration are in Arizona and Colorado. It is intended that SBMI will provide mining, metallurgical and processing services to the Investor using SBMI's state-of-the-art milling infrastructure and facilities. The SBMI mill should be capable of handling any of the Investor's products under consideration, and being modular, can be expanded to increase its capacity as required.

The Investor is also a potential purchaser of dore bars to be produced at the mill. As the relationship evolves, it is likely the Investor will become SBMI's largest customer.

On July 7, 2023 SBMI announced the extension of the silver purchase agreement with the Purchaser described in its April 27, 2023 and May 4, 2023 press releases. Effective June 30, 2023, the Purchaser and SBMI verbally agreed to extend the term of such agreement to August 31, 2023, and worked towards reducing such verbal agreement to writing. The Purchaser and SBMI continue in good faith to try to reduce the June 30, 2023 verbal agreement to writing including a new extension date.

The test-run shipment of silver, as described in the Company's June 14, 2023 press release, from SBMI to the Purchaser was received and tested by the Purchaser. The 102 ounces comprising the test-run contained dore bars consisting of varying amounts of silver, copper, and other materials. The Purchaser has tested the dore bars to determine what composition is best suited for its purposes.

As for further detail in the mining activities, the Company reached the Treasure Room in March, 2022. Higher grade material was found in the wall rock, and the Company's intention at the time was to commence mining on the other side of the Treasure Room where the vein is clearly visible. Unfortunately, unsafe working conditions due to ceiling instability meant the Company could not cross the Treasure Room and instead had to mine around the Treasure Room into the diabase. This added roughly 150 feet of drifting through harder host rock. During this time, encouraging values were obtained from samples but were not of sufficient volume to run the mill efficiently.

Until paused by the unusual heat wave, such mining activity had advanced approximately 600 feet from the portal entrance to the Treasure Room, then around the Treasure Room, and then along the vein. The team now continues to drift along the vein towards a targetted area. The Company estimates that it is relatively close to drifting into historical drill holes which can be traced from the casings on surface. The Company's information related to those historical drill holes and the historical assaying of them do not meet NI43-101 standards and cannot be disclosed.

In furtherance of its understanding of the vein and the host rock, a Lidar survey of the Buckeye Mine was recently carried out.

At some time in the future, the Company will return to the Treasure Room (once fully safetied) and will develop the lower levels where the Company believes there to be more higher grade material. The cost and timing of such activities have not been determined at this time.

Arizona Operational Update 

June 15, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) provides an operational update on its Arizona activities.

The mill in Globe, Arizona has been operating on a single shift of ten hours per day at its rated capacity with no major issues. It is running at optimal efficiency processing mineralized material from the lower grade stockpiles of vein material. Higher grade material from the mine should be introduced when it arrives at the mill. Videos of the mill can be seen at SBMI’s website www.silverbulletmines.com.

SBMI intends to increase the operating hours by adding another shift, which should happen as the mill crew becomes more familiar with the running of the mill and is able to onboard a second shift.

The mill has processed approximately 350 tons of vein material over the last seven days. The 350 tons of feed produced 418 pounds of both magnetic and non-magnetic concentrates from the concentrating table. As can be seen in the photograph below, there was a line of goldish coloured material on the right end of the shaker table when recent material was processed. Management believes this material to be gold, given its location on the table, gold’s specific gravity being higher than silver’s and copper’s, the history of the mineralized material from the Buckeye Mine, and management’s experience with processing. This material was not assayed for gold and readers are cautioned this material might not contain gold or such material may not be representative of other material from the Buckeye Mine.

From the 418 pounds of concentrate roughly 226 pounds of iron alloy were removed using a magnetic separation circuit, to remove the material which may host some silver, gold, and platinum group elements. This removed material will be retained for future processing to recover the precious metals.

The 192 pounds of non-magnetic material was moved to the Company’s refinery where dore bars are poured. These dore bars contain silver and minor amounts of gold, copper, nickel and other metals. Based upon the report from SBMI’s customer, none of the material is deleterious in nature so it should not negatively impact the value of the bar. Slag material removed in the upgrading process is retained for further processing and possible future sale.

The poured dore bars have been prepared for transportation.

Transportation of dore bars is handled by a specialized carrier permitted to transport precious metals to Europe requiring importation documentation. Working closely with the purchaser SBMI intends to make a smaller test run of product (proof of concept) to ensure the shipping process functions as expected. That proof of concept shipment should take place soon. The total number of paid ounces for silver and gold will be determined by assay after the bars’ arrival at the refinery.

At the Buckeye Silver Mine the mine team is carrying out screening and rock bolting as the team drifts along the vein. As noted in previous press releases, the goal of drifting along the vein is to intercept the historical higher mineralized zone behind the Treasure Room, which interception management believes should happen in the near future.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Provides Update on its Wholly Owned Washington Mine Idaho Property 

May 23, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’)  is pleased to provide an update on its wholly owned Washington Mine located in Idaho, approximately 1.5 hours drive from Idaho City. The Washington Mine was a historical gold producer, and its historical silver discoveries were not able to be processed at the time.

The Company has recently been able to physically access the property following a severe winter during which the area received more than 150% of its normal snowfall.  Company personnel were able to visit the site to assess the condition of the mine and roads leading to the mine. It was determined that road repairs were required to some washed out areas but otherwise the site is in good shape. Permits for road repairs have been received and work is ongoing including the installation of a new culvert and is anticipated to be completed within thirty days.

The Company is currently finalizing a budget for property and site work for this year, including the set up of the mining camp, the hook up of the water supply, moving equipment to the site, and building necessary structures to house the equipment.

The Company has engaged an experienced underground mine contractor to carry out mining activities at the site. Commencement of mining activities, which is subject to the availability of sufficient financing, is anticipated to commence within 120 days.

It is estimated that potential mineralized material is located approximately 100 feet from the portal entrance. The Company plans to mine to that area and then extract an initial 2000 ton bulk sample. Historical values from multiple bulk samples averaged 44 ounces per ton silver and .05 ounces per ton gold. (see press releases of January 18, 2022, and of February 14, 2022) The Company is negotiating with a local mill to process the material.

The Company has received the final report from the Centre for Advanced Materials Processing (“CAMP”) of Montana Technical University for the metallurgical testwork carried out on behalf of SBMI on samples from the Washington Mine. The data will be used as a basis for the Company’s mineral processing flowsheet. The work performed by CAMP using gravity and flotation combined produced initial recoveries of 86.35% for silver and 69.1% gold prior to optimization. Finally, CAMP advised the results of the tests it ran returned the head grade of the material at 62.8 silver ounces per ton and .062 gold ounces per ton. The Company is planning to run optimization tests to improve the results as recommended by CAMP.

Management is looking forward to starting re-development of the Washington Mine, and believes the mine has a great deal of potential not only as a significant silver producer but, based on last year’s field program, also as a potential extension of the historical high-grade gold zone. (see press release August 23, 2022).

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (SBMI) Receives Cash on First Order for Silver from Buckeye Mine in Arizona 

May 4, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce it has received the previously announced cash advance on its first order for its silver products from a third-party (the “Purchaser”).

SBMI has received the sum of USD$225,000 from the Purchaser as a cash advance against the order for 500 kg of silver, to be delivered to the Purchaser in tranches or all at once. At today’s pricing this first order represents more than USD$430,000 (more than CDN$570,000).

The Purchaser has indicated it intends to purchase 500 kg from SBMI each month for six months, including this order.

The first order is currently being processed from the stockpile at the mill and SBMI anticipates shipping it in whole or in part within 30 days. The Company continues to work with the Purchaser and other potential purchasers to develop a customer base for its silver/gold production.

At the Buckeye Mine, mining is ongoing. As per SBMI’s January 16, 2023 press release, SBMI continues to drift along the vein to an area believed to contain higher grade mineralization (see page 8 of the Geologic Report dated January 8, 2021). The Company expects to encounter that area in the near future, although given the uncertainties inherent in mining no exact date can be given.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (SBMI) Provides Update on First Order for Silver from Buckeye Mine in Arizona 

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 27, 2023) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) ('SBMI' or 'the Company') is pleased to provide an update on its first order for its silver products from a third-party (the "Purchaser").

The first order, announced in detail on April 17, 2023, and the attendant USD$225,000 cash advance from the Purchaser empowers SBMI to fund the cost of processing the mineralized material from the Buckeye Mine without dilution to the shareholders. The Purchaser advises it carried out a detailed analysis of the silver dore bar sent earlier and advises it believes there are no material impurities in that bar. If the bar is representative of the silver to be delivered, SBMI would incur a minimal discount to spot prices and there would be no reduction in the amount payable to SBMI due to deleterious metals.

The current order is for 500 kg (17,600 ounces), and the Purchaser has indicated it intends to order that same amount per month for the foreseeable future. Each such monthly order would represent roughly USD$400,000 in revenue to SBMI at current spot price for silver.

The Debenture referred to in the April 17, 2023 press release would bear interest at the rate of 2% per month on the outstanding principal for one month, which interest begins to accrue after 30 days. If the conversion feature of the Debenture is triggered, the conversion price would be $0.22 per share.

There are approximately 2500 tons of mineralized material on surface at the Buckeye Mine site to be shipped to the mill on an as needed basis. Mining is ongoing. As per SBMI's January 16, 2023 press release, SBMI is drifting along the vein to an area believed to contain higher grade mineralization (see page 8 of the Geologic Report dated January 8, 2021). At the current rate of mining that zone should be intercepted in approximately 4 weeks, although that timing may vary subject to the usual risks attendant on mining.

SBMI anticipates starting to process the current order this week by processing the material on hand at the mill/mine site, which has earlier returned high grades (see March 3, 2023 press release). Management believes the mill is operating at optimum efficiency.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Announces Cash Advance on First Order 

April 17, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces it has entered into a cash advance from a purchaser of SBMI’s silver products (the “Purchaser”).

SBMI has previously announced an order for 50 kilograms of silver from the Purchaser, which order has since been increased to 500 kilograms (17,600 oz) of silver. The Purchaser has indicated a willingness to purchase 17,600 oz of silver from SBMI every month for the foreseeable future. Management reasonably believes SBMI has the capability to fill such monthly orders.

The Purchaser and SBMI have since entered into an agreement whereby the Purchaser would advance USD$225,000 against the first delivery of silver to it by SBMI. This advance would be secured by a conditional convertible debenture (the “Debenture”). The Debenture only becomes convertible in the event SBMI does not deliver USD$225,000 of silver to the Purchaser within 60 days of SBMI receiving the USD$225,000 advance. This amounts to a little more than 9,000 oz of silver, depending upon the spot price at the time of delivery.

The principal amount of the Debenture would decrease as SBMI delivers silver to the Purchaser, and would expire upon the delivery of USD$225,000 worth of silver to the Purchaser. Once SBMI has delivered USD$225,000 worth of silver to the Purchaser, the Debenture would expire. The Debenture would accrue interest at the rate of 3% per month on the outstanding principal for one month, which interest begins to accrue after 30 days. After 60 days either the interest converts with the Debenture, or if SBMI has delivered USD$225,000 worth of silver to the Purchaser the obligation to pay interest would expire.

The funds would be advanced by the Purchaser immediately after SBMI receives regulatory approval for the Debenture, and would be used for working capital purposes.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (SBMI) Confirms Anomalous Platinum Group Elements (PGE)

in Some Samples on its Richmond Basin, Arizona Property

March 30, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce it has received the assay results from a third party independent (ISO 17025-2017) accredited lab, American Assay Laboratories. These are the ‘check assays’ for material tested and reported in September and October, 2022.  These results confirm the presence of anomalous platinum group elements (PGE) values in some of the material.

 

QA/QC

 

A total of six samples, 6 duplicates, 4 standards and one blank sample were assayed. The samples were collected by the mine crew from various material at the Buckeye Mine and were crushed and ground to a powder at the Company’s assay lab with the powder retained in marked sample bags. A portion of each of these bags was retained and a portion was inserted in another labelled bag and then delivered by a courier in Globe, Arizona to American Assay Laboratories in Nevada. The blank and standards were included as well. American Assay Laboratories used a similar assay finish procedure as the first lab, Lone Pine, namely ICP-MS. Lone Pine used a 4 acid dissolution of a 200 milligram sample and American Assay Laboratories used a sodium peroxide fusion of a 5 gram sample.

 

To further confirm the presence of platinum a repeat Fire Assay was undertaken. For this method the sample was fused in a ceramic crucible with litharge, sodium carbonate, borax and flour at 1080°C. From this a 25-50 gram lead button was cupelled in a magnesite cupel at 900° for 60 minutes. The silver bead was then parted with concentrated nitric acid followed by hydrochloric acid to generate chlorine and nitrosoyl chloride that dissolved the PGM sponge. Digested samples were read on an ICP-AES.

 

The PGE results obtained from American Assay Laboratories were in line with a 1995 historic report and that of Lone Pine.

 

American Assay Laboratories assayed for silver, gold, iridium, osmium, palladium, platinum, rhodium and ruthenium (see chart below). The green highlighted samples relate to standards and the yellow to blanks.

Based on these results the Company plans to continue its evaluation of the economic potential of PGE on the Buckeye Mine. Samples within the Buckeye Mine upper adit hydrothermal vein system are in the process of being sent to Dr. A. Macdonald at Laurentian University for further analysis, and a selective sampling program is to be initiated. Further testing will be done using ICP-MS as well as NAA (nuclear activation analysis) when warranted.


Mr. Robert G. Komarechka, P.Geo., an independent consultant, has reviewed and verified SBMI’s work referred to herein, and is the Qualified Person for this release.

The Company also announces that due to time commitments on other projects, J. Birks Bovaird has resigned from the board of directors. The Company thanks him for his tireless commitment to the shareholders.

The Company also announces the appointment to the board of John S. MacKenzie, CPA CA. Mr. MacKenzie will also serve as the board’s chair.

Mr. MacKenzie is currently CFO and a founding shareholder of Critical Minerals Americas Inc., a private exploration stage mining company in Alberta. He is also CFO and a founding shareholder of Evergreen Environmental Inc., engaged in the anaerobic digestion of organic waste and production and sales of RNG.

In the past Mr. MacKenzie was for 13 years the CEO of international heavy jet cargo airline AllCanada Express (ACE) and has since occupied both C-Suite and consulting positions with various mining, aviation, and technology companies. He has extensive financing, lease, purchase and sales experience over dozens of transactions and hundreds of millions of dollars of equipment.      

  

Mr. MacKenzie also has ten years of public accounting experience with Clarkson Gordon / Ernst & Young.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Processes Gold and Silver From Upper Adit at Buckeye Mine Arizona

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - March 16, 2023) - Further to its press release of March 3, 2023, Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) ('SBMI' or 'the Company') is pleased to provide an update on the latest processing campaign at its 125 TPD pilot plant.

Over a recent four-day period from March 8 to March 13, 2023, SBMI processed mineralized vein material at its 100% owned mill in Globe, Arizona, from which it recovered concentrate which will be converted to dore bars, confirming the recent mill modification was successful. The mineralized material was taken from the vein structure in the upper adit behind the Treasure Room.

SBMI Mar 16, 2023 -1.jpg

Dore bar poured March 15, 2023.

SBMI is producing an initial batch of dore bars to be sent to a third-party lab for analysis and to potential purchasers for their analysis. One dore bar has previously been sent to a potential purchaser for its analysis.

Calibrated XRF analysis have confirmed recovered gold in these dore bars, including one bar that analyzed 0.382 % gold. The XRF analysis shows the dore consists primarily of silver and copper, with gold, zinc, nickel, lead and iron. No deleterious material was found in the dore bar. This confirms the previous findings of Dr. Andrew Macdonald from the Harquail School of Earth Sciences at Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario on the silver contained within a sample collected from the floor of the Treasure Room area.

The crushing circuit of the mill is running at optimal efficiency. The grinding and gravity circuits were run at approximately 50% capacity while being optimized. The number of tons of mineralized material to be processed per hour will be increased as optimization continues and as a result of grade control assay results processed at SBMI's lab at the millsite.

To feed the mill, the Company has accumulated a significant stockpile of mineralized material at the Buckeye Mine for transportation to the mill site. Mining is ongoing in 150 ton (136 tonne) rounds, with four rounds per week, advancing at 12 feet (3.7 metres) per round.

Next steps include increasing the tonnage being shipped from the Buckeye Mine to the mill, continuing mining of the historical higher grade zone, filling the outstanding order, sourcing other purchasers, and continuing to improve operational performance at the Buckeye Mine and at the mill.

SBMI previously announced that it had received an order for 50 kg (1,760 ounces) of silver. The entity that placed that order has advised SBMI that it intends to increase that order to a minimum of 500 kg (17,600 ounces) per month. Management reasonably believes it will be able to satisfy that increased order for the foreseeable future. To decrease risk, the Company is currently in discussions with several additional potential purchasers.

Higher grade samples and dore bars, and what the field team believes to be bornite, will be sent to Harquail School of Earth Sciences for further detailed analysis. See the photo below.

The potential bornite at the Buckeye Mine is believed to be found as a hydrothermal mineral in fractures in cooler areas of the fluid migration. Association with native silver and other precious minerals have been known to occur in such mineralized situations. Further analysis of the potential bornite mineralization is ongoing.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Encounters Further Silver Mineralization and Returns to Processing Material at its Mill

March 3, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce it is again processing mineralized material its 125 TPD pilot plant. The mill is currently being fine tuned with low grade material to set the recovery parameters. Having resolved the issues with pouring silver dore bars, and having made the necessary related modification to the mill circuit, the Company intends to soon process higher grade material. To date the mill has been operating to specifications with non-detectable values for silver in the tailings produced from the shaker table.

SBMI Mar 3, 2023 -1.jpg

Line of silver from shaker table, March 2, 2023

The Company has one outstanding order for 50 kilograms of silver including credits for any contained copper or gold. The purchaser of those 50 kilograms has indicated a willingness to acquire up to 500 kilograms of silver on one week’s written notice. The Company is also in discussions with other potential purchasers.

Like any responsible producer, SBMI operates its own assay lab. SBMI continues to implement a strategic sampling program using that lab to enable it to maintain silver grade control to the mill.

Below is a list of recent highlight assays and photos from the vein in the upper adit at the Buckeye Mine, from an area to which the Company recently drifted behind the Treasure Room (not all assay results are reported). Note that all of the samples listed and photographed below are from the upper adit 420ft - 444ft from the entrance of the upper adit.

All the samples above were collected by SBMI’s field team. Samples were collected and placed in sample bags with their appropriate tag and processed at the Company’s own assay lab. Like any responsible producer, the Company owns its own assay lab and regularly takes samples as part of its production process.

The samples analyzed by SBMI at its facility near Globe, Arizona were processed through the Lab Jaw Crusher, Lab Hammer Mill and Splitter Box into an aliquot. Most of the pulverized aliquot was mixed with a flux and flour combination and melted in a crucible at 1,850 degree Fahrenheit, with the remainder being logged and archived. Upon cooling, the poured melt was in the form of a metal button and slag, following which a bone ash cupel was utilized to eliminate the lead in the button to form a bead.  The bead was then weighed, following which a solution of 6 to 1 distilled water to nitric acid was utilized to dissolve the silver in the bead at approximately 175 degrees Fahrenheit. A much more detailed description of the process and a picture of the assay lab can be found at https://www.silverbulletmines.com/qaqcassaylab.

Readers should be aware that the SBMI facilities have been designed for quick production grade control and are not ISO compliant; however, duplicate sampling with other ISO labs has been done on past samples with good correlation.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Assays 270.6 Ounces Per Ton Silver In Upper Vein At Buckeye Mine In Arizona

February 15, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces strong initial assay results from the interception of the upper main vein at the Buckeye Mine near Globe, Arizona.

The vein was intercepted approximately 380 feet from the entrance to the adit. Immediately on contact with the vein the first significant assays from the vein were 43, 178.6, and 270.6 ounces silver per ton. The samples yielding these results did not include material from the footwall. The samples were selected at random from the mineralized material removed from the vein and then were sent to SBMI’s assay lab for processing.

SBMI1 February 15, 2023.jpg

Recent Sample from Buckeye Mine

The Company is now mining along the exposed vein with assay results pending from the face. SBMI has extended the workings to 420 feet from the entrance to the adit, the vein is ten feet wide and eleven feet high, and the footwall is estimated by the field team to be four feet wide.

SBMI has stockpiled in excess of 450 tons of vein material at surface at the Buckeye Mine site, for shipment to the mill. The Company is mining 150 to 200 tons of mineralized material per day, although this rate will vary. The Company believes it has achieved the targeted grade necessary to support processing this material at the Company’s mill and to then pour dore bars or create concentrate. Both the dore bars and the concentrate will saleable product, and the Company does not expect to encounter any significant difficulties in finding buyers for those products.

SBMI is also pleased to announce it has begun to resolve the issues with pouring dore bars from this material. The picture below shows a malformed dore bar from September, 2022.

SBMI2 Feb 15, 2023.jpg

Malformed dore bar from Sept, 2022

The Company thanks Dr. Andrew Macdonald, a mineralogist with Harquail School of Earth Sciences at Laurentian University, for his assistance. Initial results from his work indicate the presence of a highly magnetic iron alloy in the mineralized material. The iron alloy smelts at temperatures of over 3000 degrees F, which is above the silver smelting temperature of roughly 1800 degrees F, and therefore it interferes with the silver smelting process. SBMI has confirmed this thesis by using a high intensity magnet to pull the iron alloy from the concentrate prior to smelting. The dore bar below, poured in February, 2023, resulted from concentrate after the iron alloy was removed.

SBMI3 Feb 15, 2023.jpg

Dore bar poured after the iron alloy was removed; Feb 2023

As a result the Company intends to permanently install a high intensity magnetic separator in the milling operation to improve the likelihood the Company can smelt silver dore bars. The Company intends to store the magnetic concentrates for future research. Continued research will be needed.

The Company is still awaiting the check assay results from American Assay Labs and Actlabs.

 

SBMI’s near term goal is to process the higher grade material at the Company’s mill to produce saleable product.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Discovers New Sulphide Vein Structures at the Buckeye Mine and a New Gold Occurrence

January 31, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to report results from its Buckeye Mine development, ongoing PGM (platinum group metals) study, assay results from its Black Copper occurrence and the discovery of a new gold occurrence on its Black Diamond Property.

Picture1 SBMI Jan 31, 2023.jpg

Development drift intersecting a wall of sulphides at the Buckeye Mine, Jan. 28, 2023

As of this date the development drift at the Buckeye Mine has advanced about 116 metres from the adit alongside the main vein with ongoing bolting and screening.

In its January 17, 2023 press release the Company advised it “…next intends to drift along the vein to an area believed to contain higher grade mineralization (see page 8 of the Geologic Report dated January 8, 2021).” However, the Company believes it may have intercepted that area of higher grade mineralization sooner than expected.

Approximately 1 metre before turning into the anticipated intersection with the main vertical vein, a 0.6 metre thick horizontal fracture zone was encountered that contained bands of massive sulphides. Horizontal sulphide bands were also noted by the QP for this press release in the Treasure Room along with paper thin layers of high purity native silver, similar to the bands in the newly discovered fracture zone. While the Company expected to locate the area of higher grade mineralization, the placement of this 0.6 metre wide area of sulphide mineralization was a positive surprise to the Company.

A blast in the drift on January 27, 2023 exposed another wall of sulphides at the end of the drift. These sulphides were also encountered sooner than the Company expected. Samples of the sulphide material are being prepared to be sent for assaying and further petrographic examination.

Regarding the earlier reported PGM assays and as previously reported, check assay samples have been sent to three independent certified labs. SBMI is awaiting complete reporting of the assays from the three labs. In addition to these check assays, the Company has contracted Dr. Andy McDonald, Mineralogist, of the Harquail School of Earth Sciences, at Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada, to undertake sample preparation, petrographic and scanning electron microscope examination of two samples derived from the Buckeye Mine.

The first sample being analyzed by Dr. McDonald was taken by the QP in November, 2022. It was diabase from the floor of the Treasure Room of the Buckeye Mine containing a silvery ductile mineral, subsequently confirmed by Dr. McDonald to be high purity native silver. When this sample was examined with an uncalibrated handheld X-ray fluorescent unit, the presence of palladium at 29 and 21 parts per million was noted. The second sample provided to Dr. McDonald was a malformed dore bar poured by SBMI in September, 2022 derived from the Buckeye Mine, containing highly refractory “unknown material.”

Also in SBMI’s January 17, 2023 press release, SBMI advised third part geologic consultants including the QP had visited the Black Copper occurrence in late November and early December, 2022. Black Copper is situated on SBMI’s Black Diamond property roughly one point five kilometres south of the Buckeye Mine and is referred to in the January, 2021 Geologic Report. Samples from Black Copper were taken and reported the following results:

Sample number         Au (ppb)             Cu ppm

342151                           615                    >1000

342152                           192                    >1000

342153                           941                    >1000

342154                           654                    >1000

 

The over-detection limit for copper on these samples was 1000 parts per million. These four samples were sent for further analysis which returned:

 

Sample number          Cu ppm                    Cu %

 

342151                           22,400                    2.24

342152                           37,400                    3.740

342153                           34,000                    3.400

342154                           54,900                    5.490

 

In addition during this geological study, an area of broken rusty quartz float was observed by the QP near the trail to the Richmond Basin to the west of the McMorris and Buckeye Mines. This is the Company’s first testing of this area. These quartz fragments appeared to be segments of narrow quartz veins containing sulphides. Due to a soil cover of a few inches to a foot in this area, limited time prevented exposure of the underlying bedrock. Four samples were collected from surface and yielded the following gold assays:

 

Sample number          Au (ppb)               Bi (ppm)

342109                             17                           2

342110                           4450                       412

342111                              64                       1600

342112                               7                          16

 

A bismuth assay of 1600 ppm and a silver assay over 100 ppm was recorded in sample 342111. The QP of this press release highly recommends further evaluation of this new gold occurrence.

Sample 342110 assayed 4.45 g/t Au. from the new gold occurrence.

QAQC For SBMI

All the samples above were collected by Robert Komarechka and John Corkery. Samples were collected and placed in sample bags with their appropriate tag and personally taken to the courier and shipped to Actlabs in Thunder Bay, Ontario for assaying. Certified standards and blanks were used both by the Company and Actlabs.

All samples analyzed by Actlabs were by Fire Assay ICPOES (Induced coupled plasma arc with optical emission spectroscopy).

The multi-element analysis was by digestion with a combination of hydrochloric, nitric, perchloric and hydrofluoric acids.

Mr. Robert G. Komarechka, P.Geo., an independent consultant, has reviewed and verified SBMI’s work referred to herein, and is the Qualified Person for this release.

Silver Bullet Mines Intercepts Vein in Arizona

January 17, 2023 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce it has intercepted the targetted vein, behind the historical Treasure Room at its Buckeye Silver Mine. This interception occurred on schedule and within SBMI’s budget. To intercept the vein SBMI rehabilitated, extended, screened and bolted the upper development drift. The material being removed is being deposited in specific locations for future evaluation.

SBMI next intends to drift along the vein to an area believed to contain higher grade mineralization (see page 8 of the Geologic Report dated January 8, 2021). The Company believes this target area to be approximately 200 feet from where SBMI recently intercepted the vein.

SBMI intends to carry out multiple daily assays of the materials referred to above at its assay facility at its millsite. The mill is ready to recommence processing immediately upon receipt of mineralized material from the Buckeye. The assay results are intended to inform the geologic team and not all such results will be disseminated.

In its December 15, 2022 press release, SBMI advised third party geologic consultants would be providing the Company with a report including observations, comments, and recommendations, based upon their November 29 - December 14, 2022 site visit to Arizona. They inspected the third-party independent lab used for sample testing, visited the Buckeye Mine site, visited the Company’s millsite, and visited the Black Copper and Helena occurrences, both of which are situated on SBMI’s Black Diamond property and are referred to in the January, 2021 Geologic Report.

Those geologic consultants also carried out a brief initial re-inspection of NQ core drilled at the Buckeye Mine by a previous optionee. This re-inspection has revealed coarse grained gabbronorite phases containing magnetite disseminations and thin bands within an area previously mapped as diabase. Small intervals containing olivine phenocrysts were also noted. These rocks may have potential for PGM mineralization. Further examination is being undertaken on these in situ rocks, the core, the Black Copper and the Helena occurrences. Samples from each has been sent to a third-party accredited lab for analysis and further work is ongoing. The Company can find no evidence of any PGM testing having previously been undertaken on this core or the rock labelled as diabase.

Finally, contact with various mineralogical and geochemical labs is ongoing to resolve metallurgical and refractory issues encountered while trying to pour dore bars from the Buckeye Mine material.

Silver Bullet Mines to Resume Development of Buckeye Silver Mine and Update on PGM

December 15, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce the imminent resumption of development of its Buckeye Silver Mine near Globe, Arizona.

SBMI plans to extract a bulk sample of mineralized material from the area of the Buckeye Silver Mine known as the Treasure Room, described in a press release of March 1, 2022, located in the upper adit of the Buckeye Silver Mine. Prior to accessing the Treasure Room, screening and rock bolting of the adit is required pursuant to MSHA regulations, which the Company estimates should take approximately one week to complete.

Upon completion of the safety measures, SBMI intends to commence work to extract mineralized material, and the Company estimates that it should take two to three weeks to intercept the veins described in the press release of March 1, 2022. Mineralized material from the floor of the Treasure Room has previously been assayed and results previously reported (March 1, 2022). The Company has previously been able to process mineralized material from this source into dore bars. Further mineralized material from this same source, once extracted, will be processed by the Company’s mill.

SBMI also advises that on a recent site visit to the Buckeye Silver Mine and the Black Diamond Property, the Company’s consulting geologists Robert Komarechka and John Corkery examined and re-logged a portion of core drilled by a prior optionee at the Buckeye Silver Mine in 2017 (press release of December 8, 2022), and extracted samples from the core, from the upper adit of the Buckeye Silver Mine, and from other parts of the Black Diamond Property. Blanks and standards were added, and all samples have been sent to a division of Actlabs for analysis for PGMs.

Messrs. Komarechka and Corkery will be providing the Company with a Report including observations, comments, and recommendations and subject to results of assays, plan a site visit to the Buckeye Silver Mine and the Black Diamond Property early in 2023.

Cautionary and Forward-Looking Statements

Readers should be cautioned that the Company’s decision to move forward with the construction of and production at the Washington Mine and the Buckeye Mine is not based on the results of any pre-feasibility study or feasibility study of mineral resources demonstrating economic or technical viability. The Company has undertaken exploration and development activities; and after taking into consideration various factors, including but not limited to: historical data, the exploration and development results to date, technical information developed internally, the availability of financing, and the starting costs as estimated internally by the Company’s management, the Company is of the view that the establishment of mineral reserves by way of a prefeasibility or feasibility study at this stage is not necessary and would be unduly costly, and that the most responsible utilization of the Company’s resources is to proceed with the development of the mines. Readers are cautioned that due to the lack of prefeasibility study or feasibility study, there is increased uncertainty and higher risk of economic and technical failure associated with the Company’s decision. In particular, there is additional risk that mineral grades may be lower than expected, and the risk that construction or continuing mining operations may be more difficult or more expensive than management expected. Production and economic variables may vary considerably, due to the absence of a detailed economic and technical analysis in accordance with National Instrument 43-101. Failure at the Washington or Buckeye Mine may materially adversely impact the Company’s overall ability to continue as a going concern.

Silver Bullet Mines Provides Update on Idaho and Arizona Mines

 

December 8, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to provide an update on operations at its Washington Mine in Idaho and at its Buckeye Mine in Arizona.

In Arizona at the Buckeye, core drilled by a prior optionee at the Buckeye Mine in 2017 has been located and a chain of custody established. The core is being re-logged. There is no record of any of it having been tested for platinum group elements. It is intended that some of such core will be split and sent to an accredited third-party lab for testing, and the remainder will be stored after it is logged.

Historical third party core from 2017

Historical core being split in December, 2022

In Idaho, the entrance to the historical past-producing gold and silver mine has been screened and rock bolted. In management’s opinion the entrance to the historical mine is secure. Efforts continue to ensure the access area past the entrance is safe to enable the field team and contract miner to advance towards what is believed to be the mineralized zone. A mining engineer has created a mine plan and a ventilation plan which will be implemented once the area is secure. The Company believes it has the necessary equipment to proceed, including a recently acquired mucker. If timber is required, SBMI has the timber rights at surface at the Washington Mine and can harvest the timber as needed.

The mining plan at the Washington Mine is subject to evolution as new facts are encountered on surface, underground and in the supply chain. The current plan is to mine around the caved area, develop a raise in the mineralized material up to surface, and to work through the winter as possible. This requires SBMI to acquire an explosive licence, for which it is applying.

Winter weather in Idaho is an uncontrollable risk, but mitigated at the Washington Mine due to the mine’s proximity to a highway.

Readers should be cautioned that the Company’s decision to move forward with the construction of and production at the Washington Mine and the Buckeye Mine is not based on the results of any pre-feasibility study or feasibility study of mineral resources demonstrating economic or technical viability. The Company has undertaken exploration and development activities; and after taking into consideration various factors, including but not limited to: historical data, the exploration and development results to date, technical information developed internally, the availability of financing, and the starting costs as estimated internally by the Company’s management, the Company is of the view that the establishment of mineral reserves by way of a prefeasibility or feasibility study at this stage is not necessary and would be unduly costly, and that the most responsible utilization of the Company’s resources is to proceed with the development of the mines. Readers are cautioned that due to the lack of prefeasibility study or feasibility study, there is increased uncertainty and higher risk of economic and technical failure associated with the Company’s decision. In particular, there is additional risk that mineral grades may be lower than expected, and the risk that construction or continuing mining operations may be more difficult or more expensive than management expected. Production and economic variables may vary considerably, due to the absence of a detailed economic and technical analysis in accordance with National Instrument 43-101. Failure at the Washington or Buckeye Mine may materially adversely impact the Company’s overall ability to continue as a going concern.

Silver Bullet Mines Closes Financing and Takes Samples from Diabase

 

November 3, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario – On October 21, 2022 Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announced a financing of Units (the “Financing”), whereby each Unit consisted of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each Unit is priced at $0.20 (twenty cents). Each common share purchase warrant has a 2-year term and is exercisable at $0.30 (thirty cents).

SBMI announces it has closed on the first tranche of the Financing, being $447,000. This represents 2,235,000 common shares and 2,235,000 common share purchase warrants. The Company expects further tranches to close in the near future. In relation to the Financing the Company paid commissions by way of 84,000 broker warrants and cash commissions of $16,800. Insiders are still blacked out by order of the Chair and were not allowed to participate in the Financing.

On September 26, 2022 the Company announced it had found high-grade gold, platinum, palladium, rhodium and osmium (the “Bonus Materials”) in concentrates resulting from 200 tons of material from the Buckeye Mine. To help identify the source and/or location of the Bonus Materials, and to help determine whether the Bonus Materials are limited to the Buckeye veins or are also present in the host materials around the veins, the Company recently took samples from the diabase at several locations near and in the Buckeye Silver Mine. “Diabase” is also known as “country rock” or “host rock”, and is the material hosting the many veins in and near the Buckeye Silver Mine.

The Company announces it has received assay results from an independent lab with respect to those samples taken from the diabase. Those results are being considered and will be disclosed to the public as soon as possible.

Finally, and as previously disclosed, the Company has encountered procedural challenges in completing its first audit as an operating company, including but not limited to cross-border documentation. Some of these challenges were caused by COVID-19 restrictions on travel to the mill and mine sites in Arizona, others by a local inexperience with audit processes. Management sees these challenges as transitory and procedural. There are no items in disagreement, whether material or not, between the auditors and the Company. Management and the board expect to be able to file the audited financial statements and the MDA for the year ended June 30, 2022 imminently.

Silver Bullet Mines Update

 

October 28, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario – Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) on October 21, 2022 announced a financing of Units (the “Financing”), whereby each Unit consisted of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each Unit is priced at $0.20 (twenty cents). Each common share purchase warrant has a 2-year term and is exercisable at $0.30 (thirty cents). SBMI announces the Financing has received conditional stock exchange approval. The Financing will close in tranches as funds are received.

A trading blackout on all Company directors, management and consultants was imposed by the Chair of the board, and such blackout continues. This was because the Company has been provided with a steady stream of data and opinions from third parties with respect to adding a further processing facility to the existing mill in Arizona to be able to extract the recently discovered palladium, platinum, rhodium, osmium and high-grade gold, and at this time the Company is unable to determine which facts are material and which are not. This determination can only be made in the fullness of time as further facts are determined. The trading blackout is the most conservative approach to protecting the integrity of the markets and the reputations of the insiders.

During this period the Company has been working with its auditors in the normal course to prepare the Company’s audited financial statements and MDA for the year ending June 30, 2022 (the “Filings”). The likely imminent determination of which facts are material may impact the subsequent event notes for the Filings. Further, the Company has encountered procedural challenges in completing its first audit as an operating company, including but not limited to cross-border documentation. Some of these challenges were caused by COVID-19 restrictions on travel to the mill and mine sites in Arizona, others by a local lack of familiarity with audit processes. Management sees these challenges as transitory and procedural. There are no items in disagreement, whether material or not, between the auditors and the Company.

As a result, it is likely the Filings will not be filed on Friday, October 28th, 2022. The effect of this will likely be a management cease trade order, which is the same in substance as the blackout already imposed by the Chair. There is no impact upon any shareholder apart from directors, management and consultants. The Company anticipates being able to file the Filings very soon thereafter as the procedural challenges are remedied.

The Company waited as long as possible to disseminate this press release, to obtain as current input as possible from the auditors and the Company’s audit committee as to timing to effect the Filings.

Silver Bullet Mines Financing for High-Grade Gold and PGMs

 

October 21, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario – On September 26, 2022 Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) disclosed it had found significant levels of palladium, platinum, rhodium, osmium and gold in its concentrate. On October 18, 2022 SBMI announced a second round of assay results proving up the palladium, platinum, rhodium, osmium and gold in representative mineralized material from its Buckeye Silver Mine near Globe, Arizona.

To allow SBMI to exploit the palladium, platinum, rhodium, osmium and gold, in addition to the original silver targets, SBMI announces its intention to carry out a non-brokered financing of Units. Each Unit will be priced at $0.20 (twenty cents) and will comprise of one common share and one full 30-cent (thirty cents) warrant with a 24-month term, with each such warrant being exercisable into a common share (the “Financing”).

The target amount for the Financing will be $600,000 (six hundred thousand dollars), with the number of Units to issue as a result of the Financing being 3,000,000. Units will be allocated on a first come, first served basis although SBMI retains the right to accept, reject or modify subscription agreements as it sees fit. The Financing is subject to regulatory approval.

SBMI currently owns a gravity mill near Globe, Arizona that is fully functional for the extraction of silver. The use of proceeds from the Financing will be to determine what equipment will be required to augment that mill’s capabilities to also extract the other elements mentioned above. All of the existing mill will be retained. Other proceeds from the Financing will be for working capital.

Silver Bullet Mines Continues to Assay for High-Grade Gold and PGMs

 

October 18, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario – On September 26, 2022 Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) disclosed it had found significant levels of palladium, platinum, rhodium, osmium and gold in its concentrate.

To help identify with greater precision the location of the source of the platinum, palladium, rhodium, osmium and gold, SBMI recently took samples directly from locations around the Buckeye Silver Mine and the Company’s mill site, including from crushed material, directly from the vein, from diabase samples from the wall rock and from tailings from the run of lower grade material. The location from which those samples were taken and their assay results are below:

Oct 18 V3.png

Samples from all locations above were taken to be as representative of the local mineralized material as possible. Samples taken from the crushed ore are by their nature representative of the source mineralized material.

In management’s opinion, this round of results provides further strong evidence for the conclusion that the Buckeye Silver Mine may host economic amounts of platinum, rhodium, palladium, osmium and gold, in addition to the original silver targets. Management has engaged third party engineers, metallurgists and geologists to assist in creating a new process flow sheet and in determining the nature of the mineralized material at the Buckeye Silver Mine. Without effecting selective disclosure, management has also had positive preliminary discussions with potential financiers, pending the delivery of the flow sheet and a rough budget.

QAQC

For each batch, Lone Pine Analytical of Phoenix, Arizona sampled two distinct samples (approx 200mg), digested, filtered, diluted and analyzed. For the digestion, the lab used [1mL HF: 4.5mL Nitric Acid: 4.5mL HCI]. The samples were digested in a microwave in sealed PTFE tubes where the temperature reached 200C with a total cycle time of 40 minutes. Bismuth (Bi) was used the internal standard. A three-point calibration, plotted through zero was used with excellent linear correlation for each element. Thus, the lab used an internal and external standards (instrument calibration). Chain of custody protocols were strictly observed. Lone Pine Analytical, as of September 11, 2022, is in the process of renewing its ISO /IEC-17025 lab accreditation with a scope for metals in soils and rocks.

Readers are cautioned that although management has made every reasonable effort to ensure the samples are as representative of the local mineralized material as possible, the samples above (apart from the crushed ore samples) are ultimately random by nature and may not be representative of the mineralization throughout the Buckeye Silver Mine.

Mr. Robert G. Komarechka, P.Geo., an independent consultant, has reviewed and verified SBMI’s work referred to herein, and is the Qualified Person for this release.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Discovery of Gold and Critical Mineral Palladium

 

September 26, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) has assayed, among other elements, significant quantities of palladium and gold in the mineralized material from its Buckeye Silver Mine in Arizona. These surprise discoveries are not factored into any of the Company’s internal financial projections. This mineralized material was taken from a newly exposed section at the Buckeye.

Palladium is currently trading at roughly USD$2,100 per ounce and gold is currently trading at roughly USD$1,650 per ounce. For reference below, SBMI notes that one ppm (part per million) is equivalent to one gram per ton. There are 28.34 grams in one ounce.

How The Gold and Palladium Were Found

The gold and palladium were discovered after SBMI processed roughly 60 tons of Buckeye Mine material at its 100%-owned mill, and then encountered challenges in pouring proper silver dore bars to satisfy the outstanding sample run order. An example of such challenges is in the picture below.

                                                      Recent dore bar from ore at the Buckeye Mine

To help identify the possible source of this, SBMI sent samples (the “First Batch”) from its concentrates to Lone Pine Analytical, a third-party lab, for further analysis. That analysis revealed elevated levels of palladium and gold, as per the chart below:

sbmi table 1.png

In response to these unusual values, SBMI will be undertaking referee sampling with another independent third-party ISO accredited lab.

“Those are astonishing results for the gold and palladium,” said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “To the best of our knowledge the only significant producer of palladium in the United States of America is Sibanye-Stillwater in Montana, so this is a possible game-changer, not just for SBMI but for mining in Arizona. We have heard anecdotal evidence of Pt-Pd production as a by-product of porphyry mining in the Globe area and have seen data from a local prospective Pt-Pd property, but we are still investigating what our results mean and we are considering what SBMI’s next steps will be.”

The Company believes the results above are a fair representation of the 60 tons of ore extracted from the Buckeye Mine.

SBMI then took a batch (the “Second Batch”) of a further seven samples from various locations in the mill, representing roughly 140 tons of ore. SBMI’s assay team assayed those samples for silver only, following which the following unique identifiers were added to each sample:

  1. Head Feed 700 oz/Ton

  2. 100 gm 2503oz/Ton Conc

  3. #1 Table Cons. Original

  4. #1 Table Cons from Mill

  5. #2 Table Cons from Mill

  6. Tails

  7. Dorie Bead

 

Those titles were provided by SBMI’s assay team to Lone Pine Analytics. The leader of SBMI’s assay team, Mr. Robert Budd, collected and assayed those samples. SBMI has on prior occasions and on its website made disclosure of Mr. Budd’s credentials and QAQC processes, and will include these matters below.

Second Batch to Lone Pine Analytics

After being assayed for silver only by SBMI, the Second Batch was then sent to Lone Pine Analytical for further analysis of additional elements. The average values for Au and Pd of the 7 samples returned from Long Pine Analytics for the gold and the palladium were as follows:

chart proper.png

In response to these unusual values, SBMI will be undertaking referee sampling with another independent third party ISO accredited lab.

All of the roughly 200 tons of material were taken directly from the vein accessed at the lower drift. All 200 tons were taken and processed in the normal course, with no selective sampling.

“We made a decision early on to build our own mill in Arizona to high standards, and as a result we have been able to immediately recognise there were significant amounts of elements other than silver in this new material” continued Mr. Carter. “Standard exploration techniques would not have found the gold or palladium without the expenditure of millions of exploration dollars. We are there more quickly for much less money.”

SBMI has found a potential buyer for the concentrates who is likely able to process the palladium in addition to the gold and silver, but before making final decisions SBMI is waiting on further assay data and input from metallurgists, engineers and others.

QAQC For SBMI

All the samples above were collected by Mr. Robert Budd, a Metallurgical Process Engineer who began his career in metallurgical engineering in 1972. He has held various positions with various employers including Senior Engineer, Superintendent, Engineer, Technical Assistant, Technician, and Lab Assistant. Most recently, prior to joining SBMI he was involved in designing and creating an internal assay facility in Arizona for Freeport McMorran Inc. He has also been the the Principal Process Specialist for Fluor Canada out of Vancouver, the Senior Metallurgical Engineer for Doe Run Lead, the Project Engineer for the commissioning of a copper concentrator start-up at Oz Minerals’ Prominent Hill Mine in South Australia, Senior Metallurgical Engineer for Cyprus Miami/Phelps Dodge Miami in Arizona, Metallurgical Engineer and Metallurgical Lab Supervisor for Newmont Gold in Nevada, and Chief Metallurgist for Inspiration/Cyprus Miami in Arizona among other positions.

The samples analyzed by SBMI at its facility near Globe, Arizona were processed by Mr. Budd through the Lab Jaw Crusher, Lab Hammer Mill and Splitter Box into an aliquot. Most of the pulverized aliquot was mixed with a flux and flour combination and melted in a crucible at 1,850 degree Fahrenheit, with the remainder being logged and archived. Upon cooling, the poured melt was in the form of a metal button and slag, following which a bone ash cupel was utilized to eliminate the lead in the button to form a bead. The bead was then weighed, following which a solution of 6 to 1 distilled water to nitric acid was utilized to dissolve the silver in the bead at approximately 175 degrees Fahrenheit. A much more detailed description of the process and a picture of the assay lab can be found at https://www.silverbulletmines.com/qaqcassaylab.

QAQC For Lone Pine Analytics

For each batch, Lone Pine Analytical of Phoenix, Arizona sampled two distinct samples (approx 200mg), digested, filtered, diluted and analyzed. For the digestion, the lab used [1mL HF: 4.5mL Nitric Acid: 4.5mL HCI]. The samples were digested in a microwave in sealed PTFE tubes where the temperature reached 200C with a total cycle time of 40 minutes. Bismuth (Bi) was used the internal standard. A three-point calibration, plotted through zero was used with excellent linear correlation for each element. Thus, the lab used an internal and external standards (instrument calibration). Chain of custody protocols were strictly observed. Lone Pine Analytical, as of September 11, 2023, is in the process of renewing its ISO /IEC-17025 lab accreditation with a scope for metals in soils and rocks

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. - Begins Processing of High Grade Ore

 

September 1, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce two major achievements. It has begun processing higher grade ore at its 100%-owned mill, and it has signed its first contract for the delivery of silver dore bars.

“These are major milestones in the Company’s growth,” said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “In less than a year after starting construction of our mill, we are processing the higher grade material extracted from our Buckeye Silver Mine and we have signed our first contract to deliver silver out of that mine. This is outstanding work from everyone on the team.”

Silver Bullet August 31, 2022.jpg

                                                             First run of higher grade material at the mill

The bars for the order will be poured at the Company’s mill site near Globe, Arizona, using a mixture of the lower and the higher grade ores taken from the Company’s Buckeye Silver Mine. Several of the bars have already been poured and are ready for shipping and it is intended that the others will be poured in the immediate future.

This first order is a sample run of 50 kilograms of dore silver. The identity of the counter-party to the agreement is confidential. That counter-party has expressed an intention after this sample run to purchase all available uncommitted silver product produced at the Company’s mill.

SBMI recently received a technical report (not NI43-101) from its third-party engineering firm with minor recommendations to increase efficiencies at the mill. SBMI has implemented such recommendations while running the lower grade material stockpiled at the mill. The successful processing of this ore has led to the decision to start processing the higher grade material. In management’s opinion the mill is now running at near-optimal efficiencies.

The grade of the ore and the dore bars will be disclosed in the normal course, as the ore is processed.

Please visit the Company’s website for videos of the higher grade material being processed.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Updates on Washington Mine in Idaho

 

August 23, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to provide an update on its ongoing operations at its 100%-owned Washington Mine in Idaho. This mine is on patented lands.

Site work has commenced to prepare the property for rehabilitation and production. A local portable sawmill operator is on-site to prepare to mill timbers. A contractor has been scheduled to upgrade the access road and to establish site water, electricity and storage. Near-term surface work will focus on rock bolting, screening and shotcreting the historical portal face, as well as preparing timbers and insulation for mine entry support.

Contract terms have been negotiated with an underground mine contractor and, subject to completion of a federal agency filing and the approval of mine design by the Company’s mine engineer, underground rehabilitation is anticipated to begin in or about October. It is not possible at this time to provide a timetable for production as that largely depends upon the rehabilitation process. At some point in time, Mine Safety and Health Administration will carry out an inspection.

The Washington Mine first saw production in the late 1800's with an average gold grade of one ounce per ton. It again produced gold in the 1930's during which time the then-owner lacked the process capability needed to produce silver, so a decision was made to block out the silver mineralization with the intention of returning at a future date to extract it. To the best of SBMI’s knowledge, the blocked-out volume remains in situ. A historical report indicates the blocked-out volume contains an estimated 3 million ounces of silver with a grade of 30 to 90 ounces per ton and 15,000 ounces of gold at 0.3 ounces per ton. (Source, “Geological Evaluation”, Roger G. Stoker, P.G. and Ryne C. Stoker, Student Geologist, Energy Services Inc., December, 1981.)

Stoker also indicated the underground location of the “Berger Vein”, described as a “gold ore shoot 25 feet wide, 135 feet long, and unknown depth.” Average grades were given as 0.3 oz/ton gold with unknown silver content. Additional notes in Stoker suggest that the Berger Vein had been intersected in drifting at the 400-foot level.

The references above to data and observations derived from work not carried out by SBMI are of historical nature only and cannot be relied upon at this time. SBMI does not know the methods by which such work was carried out, or whether all or part of it was under the supervision of a Qualified Person, as that term is defined in NI43-101. SBMI refers to such data and observations to inform its knowledge of the area.

SBMI disclosed the results of part of its field program on December 9, 2021 (filed at SEDAR December 15, 2021). A reminder of those strong results is below:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Based in part on the information from Stoker, and in part on the data above, and from its own other observations, SBMI took a bulk sample from the Washington Mine, the results of which were disclosed on January 18, 2022. That bulk sample returned 55.5 ounces silver per ton, within the historical parameters of 30 to 90 ounces silver per ton.

Further, the Company may have found the surface expression of the Berger Vein in its 2021 field season. As disclosed on December 9, 2021 soil geochemistry returned gold values up to 9 ppm in areas of shallow soil cover. The Company anticipates that future field work comprising of further soil geochemistry and hand trenching could lead to exposure of in-place gold mineralization.

Underground, historical plan maps depict a cross cut at the main portal level at about 200 feet lower in elevation. The Company believes the cross cut accessed the Berger Vein. SBMI intends to access this cross cut during rehabilitation efforts. Once safe passage through the cross cut is secured, SBMI anticipates systematic sampling, evaluation and potential underground drilling in the Berger Vein area.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Operational Update

 

August 11, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) provides an operational update on the ramp-up of its 125 metric ton per day pilot plant in Arizona, on progress at its Buckeye Silver Mine in Arizona, and on progress at the Washington Mine in Idaho.

While processing the lower-grade material from the Buckeye, all components of the Arizona mill continue to perform within parameters. Adjustments continue to be made within those parameters to fine-tune production. As a result the mill is producing silver concentrate and is pouring silver dore bars from this material, while the ramp-up continues. The Company intends to introduce higher-grade material from the Buckeye once the mill is operating optimally, to avoid wastage in the tailings.

sbmi 2.jpg

                                                               Dore bars poured at the end of July, 2022

 

The silver concentrate and dore bars have been and continue to be shipped to potential purchasers for analysis. All purchases will likely be FOB the mill site.

 

Occasional challenges are being encountered with the motor and starter for the ball mill. The field team reasonably believes these challenges can be overcome in the near future.

 

At the Buckeye Mine, mineralized material is being extracted from the vein above the decline near the Treasure Room. SBMI is also bolting, screening and adding timber to the adit as part of its ESG commitment.

 

In Idaho at the Washington Mine, SBMI has begun the process to have the adit timbered and brought to current safety standards. The next step there would be for the contract miner to begin the process of extracting a bulk sample of between 1,500 and 3,000 tons, to be processed at a local mill. Management expects SBMI’s capital investment for this process to be relatively minor.

 

Largely due to Covid the ramp-up of the mill in Arizona has taken longer than anticipated which has had an effect upon the Company’s anticipated cashflow. With a view to protecting its treasury SBMI is in advanced negotiations to enter into an agreement (the “Agreement”) with its largest institutional shareholder (the “Lender”) whereby SBMI would borrow CDN$650,000 (six hundred and fifty thousand dollars) for an 18-month term. The Agreement would provide for an 8 % interest rate and a conversion feature, whereby upon conversion the loan may convert into 2,166,667 units (each, a “Unit”) at an effective price of $0.30 per Unit. This is at a premium to the current market price. Each Unit would be comprised of one common share and one common share purchase warrant exercisable at $0.35 for a four-year term.

 

Closing on the Agreement is conditional upon regulatory approval.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Releases Assay Results including 2,363.8 oz/t Silver

 

July 25, 2022 – Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF)  (“SBMI” or “the Company”) announces spectacular assay results for silver from its Buckeye Mine in Arizona.

The assay results below came from a test carried out by SBMI to further confirm, in practice, the efficiencies with which SBMI’s assay lab would process the high-grade ore from the Buckeye Mine. The person who carried out the test in Arizona was Ron Murphy, the Company’s VP Mining, together with SBMI’s assay team, under the supervision of Bob Budd, metallurgical engineer.

Below is a picture of the Heavy Rock2 select grab sample that SBMI took from behind the Treasure Chest at its Buckeye Mine in March, 2022. Mr. Murphy recently sampled Heavy Rock2, in a process that resulted in two beads.

One bead graded 2,214.4 oz/t silver and the other 2,363.8 oz/t silver.

Heavy Rock2 Sample from Behind the Treasure Room

Silver Bullet Press Release July 26, 2022 -2.jpg

These results are spectacular and Management is thrilled with them as the extreme results were unexpected due to the fine dissemination of silver throughout this type of rock. However, Management believes the grade of future beads can be increased as the field team continues to fine tune the mill and the assay lab to increase their efficiencies.

“We designed the assay lab and the mill with the high-grade material from the Buckeye in mind, in the belief they would work together to produce saleable high grade material”, said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “That belief is why we built a complete processing facility in under 10 months, for less than $3,000,000. These assay results go a long way to justifying that belief and the building of the mill. Our field team has been incredible.”

Bead from Buckeye Mine Ore grading 2,363.8 oz/t silver

SBMI continues to bring what it believes to be high- grade product from the Buckeye Mine to the millsite, in anticipation of completing the mill tune-up with lower grade material, and then commencing milling the higher grade material. Discussions are underway with various potential buyers for SBMI’s concentrate, and for the dore once poured.

QA/QC

The samples analyzed by SBMI at its facility near Globe, Arizona were processed through the Lab Jaw Crusher, Lab Hammer Mill and Splitter Box into an aliquot. Most of the pulverized aliquot was mixed with a flux and flour combination and melted in a crucible at 1,850 degree Fahrenheit, with the remainder being logged and archived. Upon cooling, the poured melt was in the form of a metal button and slag, following which a bone ash cupel was utilized to eliminate the lead in the button to form a bead.  The bead was then weighed, following which a solution of 6 to 1 distilled water to nitric acid was utilized to dissolve the silver in the bead at approximately 175 degrees Fahrenheit. A much more detailed description of the process and a picture of the assay lab can be found at https://www.silverbulletmines.com/qaqcassaylab.

Readers should be aware that the SBMI facilities have been designed for quick production grade control and are not ISO compliant; however, duplicate sampling with other ISO labs has been done on past samples with good correlation.

 

Readers are cautioned Heavy Rock2 may not be representative of all the material in the Treasure Room or overall at the Buckeye Silver Mine. Readers are further advised that these preliminary assay values do not represent a reserve or resource at this time. While significant silver values have been encountered, the quantity, grade, or metal or mineral content of a deposit has not been categorized as an inferred mineral resource, an indicated mineral resource, a measured mineral resource, a probable mineral resource, reserve or a proven mineral reserve.

 

Mr. Robert G. Komarechka, P.Geo., an independent consultant and the Qualified Person for this release, has reviewed and verified SBMI’s work referred to herein and approves this Press Release for public dissemination.

Silver Bullet Mines Produces Silver

 

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 13, 2022) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) ("SBMI" or "the Company") is both pleased and proud to announce it has successfully produced silver and copper at its wholly owned 125 metric ton per day mill near Globe, Arizona.

"This production is the result of years of hard work, planning and dedication, and the incredible talents of the Arizona team," said A. John Carter, SBMI's CEO. "Over the past ten months, despite COVID-19 and global supply chain issues, we have spent less than three million dollars building this fully functional mill, a staggering feat. This is to my mind a one-of-a-kind experience."

The mill produced its first silver concentrate from lower grade ore on July 12, 2022 and plans to soon pour its first dore bars. The Company intends to continue to use lower grade ore to optimize recovery efficiency and fine tune the various mill components. Higher grade ore will be introduced into the system once the mill is operating at higher rates of recovery. To date there have been no major setbacks and all components are operating within expected parameters.

Below is a photo of the first band of silver coming off the shaker table. The silver is visible on the left side of the photo. The secondary concentrate line is a silver/copper blend which will be bagged and sold. The initial concentrate and dore should be sold to various refineries, whose apparent demand should account for SBMI's entire silver and copper production over the coming weeks.

A video of the shaker table operating can be found at the Company's website, www.silverbulletmines.com.

The Buckeye Silver Mine is the source of the bulk sample ore for the mill. Both the mill and the Buckeye Mine are 100% controlled by SBMI. At the Buckeye, the field team is currently extracting ore from a vein at a location where it is approximately 12 feet wide. SBMI's target is to have at least one month (5,000 tonnes) of raw ore available to the mill at all times, meaning management expects ore to be continually shipped from the Buckeye to the mill on a regular schedule.

Over the coming weeks management expects a steady stream of announcements as material milestones are met.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp.’s Successful Commissioning of its Silver Pilot Plant

 

July 5, 2022 – Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF)  (“SBMI” or “the Company”) announces it has successfully completed commissioning of its wholly owned 125 MTPD state of the art mill near Globe, Arizona. This is the latest major achievement in progressing towards bulk sampling and silver production.

Despite minor delays caused by COVID-19, the commissioning was successfully completed on July 3, 2022. Over the past few weeks all equipment at the mill was test run and synchronized for continuity. No material defects or deficiencies were detected.

“In September of 2021 this was an empty field,” said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “Now this field hosts a fully functional silver processing facility, ready to start processing a bulk sample of ore from our Buckeye Silver Mine. This could not have been achieved without the incredible skill and dedication of the technical team in Arizona.”

SBMI has commenced crushing ore through the crushing circuit (see video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16ft1Dm-LMI) and is filling the fine ore bin. The photo on the left below shows coarse ore from the Company’s local Buckeye Silver Mine and the photo on the right shows crushed ore in the fine ore bin. The cone crusher and jaw crusher successfully crushed the ore to less than ½ inch in diameter, which is ideal feed for the ball mill.

The next step on the path to producing concentrate and dore bars is to start running the fine ore through the grinding and gravity circuit. This will require a ramp-up period until all equipment is running at maximum efficiency.

Samples are being sent to multiple companies which have expressed an interest in buying SBMI’s concentrate and dore.

This is yet another giant leap forward for the Company. SBMI is on the cusp of producing both silver and copper and generating cash flow which will enable it to continue to execute on its business plan.

Commissioning of Silver Bullet Mines Corp.'s Mill Has Begun

 

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - June 9, 2022) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) ("SBMI" or "the Company") announces it has commenced commissioning of its wholly owned 125 MTPD state of the art mill located near Globe, Arizona. This is the next step to silver production.

"Commissioning is the culmination of much planning and hard work," said A. John Carter, SBMI's CEO. "The field team overcame global supply chain issues to create a functioning 125 MTPD mill, in a location that was an empty field only last September. We are looking forward to processing ore as quickly as possible."

Commissioning will take place over the next few weeks and will include the following steps:

  • water will be run through the mill to check for leaks;

  • each motor will be test run individually and sequentially;

  • each piece of equipment will be test run individually and sequentially to confirm technical matters such as the alignment of gears, bearing temperatures, and clearances;

  • the conveyors will be tracked for speed and consistency;

  • the crushers will be adjusted to proper settings as dictated by the conveyors;

  • the ball charge will then be put in the mill, meaning the steel balls will be inserted into the ball mill in anticipation of feedstock;

  • once all the equipment is calibrated, the mill will again be wet run with water to insure pumps and piping are correct; and

  • the installation of ancillary equipment as needed will follow.

 

SBMI has contracted Sepro Mineral Systems Corp., the manufacturer of the Falcon Concentrators, to provide a start-up technical team to train SBMI's experienced mill crew, to insure optimum efficiency of each piece of the mill and the mill overall. The third-party electrical engineers will have at least one person on-site during start-up as well.

When the overall mill has been confirmed to be operating properly, test feed material will be added. As previously disclosed the Company has stockpiled at the millsite some lower grade ore from the Buckeye Silver Mine to serve as test feed. This will allow SBMI to fine tune the mill while minimizing the risk of losing valuable metals to tailings.

It is anticipated the entire commissioning process will take a few weeks, following which processing of the higher grade material can begin.

SBMI will provide further updates as it progresses through the commissioning process.

Near-Term Production at Washington Silver Mine in Idaho

 

May 5, 2022 – Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI and OTCQB:SBMCF)  (“SBMI” or “the Company”) is pleased to provide an update on operations at its 100%-owned Washington Mine in Idaho. This mine is on patented lands.

“We are pleased to be back at the Washington Mine and moving forward to production,” said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “The plan is to access the ore zone in June, to commence production in July, and to continue to work through the winter of 22-23.” SBMI is in discussions with an experienced contract miner to commence such work as soon as reasonably possible, subject to a due diligence site visit.

The Washington Mine first saw production in the late 1800's with an average gold grade of one ounce per ton. It again produced gold in the 1930's during which time the then-owner lacked the process capability needed to produce silver, so a decision was made to block out the silver mineralization with the intention of returning at a future date to extract it. To the best of SBMI’s knowledge, the blocked-out volume remains in situ. A historical report indicates the blocked-out volume contains an estimated 3 million ounces of silver with a grade of 30 to 90 ounces per ton and 15,000 ounces of gold at 0.3 ounces per ton. (Source, “Geological Evaluation”, Roger G. Stoker, P.G. and Ryne C. Stoker, Student Geologist, Energy Services Inc., December, 1981.)

Stoker also indicated the location of the “Berger Vein”, described as a “gold ore shoot 25 feet wide, 135 feet long, and unknown depth.” Average grades were given as 0.3 oz/ton gold with unknown silver content. Additional notes in Stoker suggest that the Berger Vein was intersected in drifting at the 400-foot level.

The references above to data and observations derived from work not carried out by SBMI are of historical nature only and cannot be relied upon at this time. SBMI does not know the methods by which such work was carried out, or whether all or part of it was under the supervision of a Qualified Person, as that term is defined in NI43-101. SBMI refers to such data and observations to inform its knowledge of the area.

Based in part on the information from Stoker, SBMI took a bulk sample from the Washington Mine, the results of which were disclosed on January 18, 2022. That bulk sample returned 55.5 ounces silver per ton. It is the Company’s intention to exploit that mineralization while developing other vein faces.

To that end the Company’s onsite contractor has cleared small trees that had fallen over the winter, has upgraded the road, and with snowmelt, has cleared access to the main portal.

May 5, 2022-1.jpg

SBMI has also contracted a portable sawmill to be on site in the near future to start cutting timber for the underground workings. There will be cost-savings as SBMI owns the timber rights at the Washington Mine, meaning SBMI can provide most of the required timber. The Company is also installing a water supply and equipment container.

It is intended that SBMI meet the contract miner at the Washington Mine in the next few weeks for a due diligence visit.

 

Some of the items involved in having the contract miner begin removing mineralized material are:

  • Road upgrade permit has been received and the work completed;

  • Mine ID has been applied for and received;

  • A ventilation plan is in progress and should be completed in next few weeks;

  • MSHA approval should be received shortly;

  • Contract negotiations are underway with a Mine Rescue contractor; and

  • Metallurgical testing is ongoing at Montana Technical University with results anticipated in the next few weeks.

 

It is anticipated the contract miner will take an initial bulk sample of 1500 to 3000 tons in July, for processing at a local mill. Upon completion of the processing of the bulk sample, SBMI intends to start underground development, targeting the parallel zone and the Berger Vein.

All the above items are being completed under the on-site supervision of Mr. Nick Barr, geologist.

The Company is also planning a surface exploration program at the Washington Mine this summer to further delineate the parallel structures discovered during last year’s field program.

Access to the property can be maintained through the winter as SBMI has contracted a local service provider who has the equipment needed to keep the road open. Decisions on the scope of winter work underground will be determined after the Company receives the results of the July bulk sample.

 

In Arizona at the Buckeye Silver Mine, work continues to complete the 125t/day mill. Wiring the Motor Control Centre to the various parts of the ball mill has begun. The estimated timeline for completion is roughly four weeks, although that is largely out of SBMI’s control. There continues to be some supply chain risk and pricing risk as to when all equipment will be ready and on-site, although SBMI believes it has taken all necessary steps to reduce such risks.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Invited Back to Emerging Growth Conference and Update on Mill in Arizona

 

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 25, 2022) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) (OTCQB: SBMCF) ("SBMI" or "the Company") is pleased to provide the following update on the current status of operations at its 100%-owned mill near Globe, Arizona.

All major components are in place at the mill and the technical team is completing the installation of smaller components while preparing for the installation of the electrical system. The timing of starting of the electrical work was dependent upon the timing of delivery of the third shipping container to the millsite and the installation of the equipment including the Motor Control Centre ("MCC"). The installation of those items was a pragmatic pre-condition to SBMI applying for the requisite permits.

Once those items were installed, SBMI applied for and received the necessary permits. With those permits in hand the electrical contractor is currently assembling the panels and switchgear at its plant mill. SBMI anticipates that task should be completed in the next three weeks. Cable trays on the mill and MCC are installed in anticipation of the electrical team being on-site. As an ESG-committed company SBMI is ensuring all installations are carried out safely, to code, and with minimal impact on the environment.

"As much as we'd like to, we are unable to give with precision an exact date upon which the mill will be turning, but we are extremely close to being able to process ore from the Buckeye Silver Mine," said A. John Carter, SBMI's CEO. "The field team has been doing tremendous work to get us here. We continue to stockpile ore at the millsite in anticipation of mill completion."

SBMI also announces that it has been invited to present again at the Emerging Growth Conference on Wednesday, April 27 at 12:30 pm EST.

SBMI first presented at the Emerging Growth Conference in December, 2021, just after SBMI's common shares were listed on the TSX Venture Exchange. Now that SBMI's shares also trade through the OTCQB, it seemed appropriate to re-visit this conference to update attendees on SBMI's progress at its silver mines in Arizona and Idaho.

This will again be a real-time, interactive event will give existing shareholders and the investment community the opportunity to interact with Mr. Peter M. Clausi, SBMI's VP, Capital Markets, in real time. Mr. Clausi will provide a general overview of SBMI, its capital structure, its achievements in the field, its ESG successes, and its plans for the future. The floor will then be open for questions.

Silver Bullet Mines Provides Assay Results from the Buckeye Mine Including a Footwall Assay of 706.6 Ounces per Ton Silver

 

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 4, 2022) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) ("SBMI" or "the Company") is pleased to provide the following report on its continuous assay program at its Buckeye Silver Mine in Arizona.

This press release reports the recent assay results from 44 samples. The assays were processed at SBMI's non-ISO in-house assay facility in Arizona under the supervision of Robert Budd, a metallurgical engineer whose career in metallurgy began in 1972, and Vic Powers, a certified Arizona assayer. The assays include samples from four underground areas of the Buckeye Mine, these being: 1) the footwall of the vein; 2) the recently announced Treasure Room stope; 3) behind the Treasure Room stope; and 4) the historical tailings.

Five samples, taken from the footwall of the vein from an area covering approximately 14 to 18 inches in width, provided the following returns (in ounces of silver per ton or oz/t as well as grams per tonne or g/t):

  • 341.8 oz/t or 11,718.95 g/t;

  • 336.2 oz/t or 11,152.95 g/t;

  • 674.0 oz/t or 23,108.76 g/t;

  • 706.6 oz/t or 24,226.49 g/t; and

  • 124.4 oz/t or 4,265.18 g/t;

The average of the remaining 39 samples (including 6 samples of 0.0 oz/t) is as follows:

  • Treasure Room stope assays (27 samples) - 20.17 oz/t or 691.56 g/t silver

  • Assays behind the Treasure Room stope (7 samples) - 37.08 oz/t or 1,271.32 g/t silver

  • Assays from the Treasure Room's historical tailings (5 samples) - 17.9 oz/t or 613.72 g/t silver.

The overall average for all the 39 above samples is 22.91 oz/t or 785.63 g/t silver. The high-grade values from the footwall were not included in the above overall average.

"These are exciting numbers and they provide us with a great deal of confidence in our internal grade estimates as we move to production", said A. John Carter, SBMI's CEO. "As any responsible producer would, we will continuously sample and assay as we proceed."

Readers are cautioned that the 44 samples are selective grab samples and may not be representative of all the material at the Buckeye Silver Mine. The reader is further advised that these preliminary assay values do not represent a reserve or resource at this time. While significant silver values have been encountered, the quantity, grade, or metal or mineral content of a deposit has not been categorized as an inferred mineral resource, an indicated mineral resource, a measured mineral resource, a probable mineral resource, reserve or a proven mineral reserve.

As it moves into production, SBMI will assay on a daily basis to better enable it to determine the production head grade of the feed material. SBMI does not intend to report all assays taken daily.

In light of the high-grade values in the assays, the Company has engaged Montana Technical University to help SBMI optimize an efficient recovery process flow sheet. The capital expenditures being made to the mill, funded by the recently-completed oversubscribed financing, will also assist in improving recoveries.

The mill, on permitted patented lands owned by SBMI, is close to completion. Electrical, piping and small fabrication items remain to be completed before commencement of an anticipated two-week trial period. During this two-week trial period SBMI will move roughly 1,500 tons of the lower-grade ore to the mill.

SBMI will move its two boom jumbo and mucker to the Buckeye Silver Mine in anticipation of completion of ongoing development and commencement of mining.

QA/QC

No standards, duplicates or blanks were used or the above 44 samples although management intends to include such checks in future assay programs. Management also intends occasionally send samples to an ISO-certified third party lab for confirmation of SBMI's owns lab equipment and processes.

The samples analyzed by SBMI at its facility near Globe, Arizona were processed through the Lab Jaw Crusher, Lab Hammer Mill and Splitter Box into an aliquot. Most of the pulverized aliquot was mixed with a flux and flour combination and melted in a crucible at 1,850 degree Fahrenheit, with the remainder being logged and archived. Upon cooling, the poured melt was in the form of a metal button and slag, following which a bone ash cupel was utilized to eliminate the lead in the button to form a bead. The bead was then weighed, following which a solution of 6 to 1 distilled water to nitric acid was utilized to dissolve the silver in the bead at approximately 175 degrees Fahrenheit. A much more detailed description of the process and a picture of the assay lab can be found at https://www.silverbulletmines.com/qaqcassaylab.

The Qualified Person for this press release is Mr. Robert G. Komarechka, P.Geo., an independent consultant, who has reviewed and verified SBMI's work referred to herein. Mr. Robert G. Komarechka, P.Geo. co-authored the NI43-101 compliant report on this property, delivered to the Company in January, 2021.

Finally, due to a typo, the Company under-reported the number of broker warrants issued as part of its recent financing. The correct number is 179,130.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. New Auditors and Extension of Oversubscribed Financing

March 25, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario –Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces an extension to close on the final tranche of its previously announced financing (the “Financing”). The Company has closed on two tranches already in the Financing and has outstanding subscription agreements in hand. The total amount when adding the cash from those two tranches and the outstanding subscription agreements is $2,518,903.

The TSX Venture Exchange has granted an extension to April 1, 2022 to allow SBMI to physically gather all payments for its outstanding subscription agreements. This is purely a logistical issue. There will be no new subscription agreements in the Financing.

“We thank the shareholders for their continued faith in our business plan and in our ability to execute on it,” said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “The funds raised in this financing have been budgeted to put the Buckeye Mine into production, to complete our mill, and to advance the Washington Mine in Idaho in the near-term to where it can be ready for mineral extraction.”

The oversubscribed total represents 6,297,258 Units, with each Unit priced at $0.40 (forty cents). Each Unit consists of one common share and one full 60-cent (sixty cent) warrant with a 24-month term, with each such warrant being exercisable into a common share (the “Financing”). There is no acceleration clause on such warrants.

The Financing had an original minimum-maximum of $500,000 and $2,000,000 respectively. The Financing was oversubscribed by more than 25% of the original maximum.

In connection with the Financing a total of 79,130 broker warrants were issued as referral fees to registrants, with such warrants having the same characteristics as those issued in the Financing. A total of $73,352 was also paid in cash as referral fees.

The strength of the Financing enables SBMI to implement additions to its mill in Arizona to increase recoverability. The modular nature of the mill allows such additions to be made relatively quickly. Management is of the opinion that the positive results of such improvements justify a minor delay to the start of processing material from the Buckeye Mine.

SBMI also announces that Grant Thornton LLP (the “Successor Auditor”) have been appointed as the company’s new auditor effective March 22, 2022, replacing McGovern Hurley LLP, (the “Former Auditor”).

Reporting notices prepared in accordance with National Instrument 51-102 (“NI 51-102”) by the Former Auditor, the Successor Auditor and the Company will be filed on SEDAR.

There are no disagreements or consultations (as those terms are defined in NI 51-102) in connection with the change of auditor nor have there been any reservations or modifications in the Former Auditor’s reports on the Company’s financial statements relating to the period during which it was auditor.

No “reportable event” as defined in NI 51-102, has occurred in connection with the audit of the most recently completed fiscal year of the Company, nor any period from the most recently completed fiscal years of the Company for which McGovern Hurley LLP issued an audit report and the date of the Notice.

The termination of McGovern Hurley LLP, and appointment of Grant Thornton LLP, as auditor of the Company were considered and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.

Finally, SBMI announces the resignation of Ronald Wortel from his officer position with the Company. He remains a member of the board of directors.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. to Commence Mining at its Wholly- Owned Washington Mine in Idaho

March 15, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario –Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces it has made a production decision for its Washington Mine on patented land in Idaho. Upon review of the historical records, SBMI’s 2021 and 2022 field programs, the proposed budget, the success of the financing announced February 9 of this year, the existing infrastructure and the current data including SBMI’s blended bulk sample that yielded 55.5 ounces silver per tonne, the board has decided to initiate mining at the Washington Mine.

It is the Company’s plan to widen the existing adit, make the area safe for work, proceed to the historical workings and extract mineralized material. To that end SBMI is in discussions with an experienced contract miner to commence such work as soon as reasonably possible, subject to a due diligence site visit.

This part of the Washington Mine was last mined in the 1980’s when a bulk sample was removed by the then-owner and processed by Hecla Mining. That bulk sample resulted in a grade of 44 ounces silver per tonne and 10 grams of gold per tonne. (All historical references pre-date NI43-101 and the work involved was not carried out by SBMI. SBMI does not know what processes were followed for any such work or whether the work was carried out under the supervision of a Qualified Person. Such historical references cannot be relied upon until further work is carried out.)

SBMI Press release Mar. 15, 2022.jpg

Historical Adit at the Washington Mine in Idaho

The Washington Mine overall first saw production in the late 1800's with an average gold grade of one ounce per ton. It again produced gold in the 1930's during which time the then-owner lacked the process capability needed to produce silver, so a decision was then made to block out the silver mineralization with the intention of returning at a future date to extract it. To the best of SBMI’s knowledge, the blocked-out volume remains in situ. A historical report indicates the blocked-out volume contains an estimated 3 million ounces of silver with a grade of 30 to 90 ounces per ton and 15,000 ounces of gold at 0.3 ounces per ton. (Source, “Geological Evaluation”, Roger G. Stoker, P.G. and Ryne C. Stoker, Student Geologist, Energy Services Inc., December, 1981.)

The historical records and existing infrastructure suggest SBMI should be able to in the short-term extract a bulk sample of 1,500 to 3,000 tonnes of mineralized material from that blocked-out volume. After a brief pause to assess the results of the bulk sample and to inspect more of the existing infrastructure, the Company would continue extracting material from this part of the mine and also develop a ramp to the high-grade parallel structure identified in last year’s field program. (see press release of December 15, 2021).

The Company is waiting on metallurgical testing results from Montana Technical University to enable SBMI to create an appropriate flowsheet and recovery parameters, following which the Company intends to reach terms with a third-party mill in Idaho. The resulting processed silver and other materials will be sold to local smelters at spot prices. The Company is also in discussions with two commodity brokers interested in buying the expected concentrate. There is a risk the Company will not be able to reach agreement with any of these counter-parties, including the contract miner.

In anticipation of start-up the Company has received its mine ID number and is completing the MSHA application. Other permitting is limited as the Washington Mine is on patented land.

“These are very exciting times for Silver Bullet Mines as we rapidly approach commencement of mining operations at the Buckeye Mine in Arizona and move simultaneously to mining in Idaho,” said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “Revenue generated from both mines can fund exploration programs to attack the past-producing McMorris Mine, increase production capacity at our 100%-owned modular mill, and explore the potential for a copper porphyry at our Black Diamond Property.”

The financing announced February 9, 2022 has closed two tranches totalling $1,574,075. There will be at least one more closing before March 26, 2022. This successful financing means SBMI is well funded to finance the opening of both the Buckeye and Washington Mines.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Second Tranche of Successful Financing

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - March 11, 2022) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) ('SBMI' or 'the Company') announces it today has closed on $810,075 in its previously announced financing, bringing the total raised to date to $1,574,075.

This tranche represents 2,205,188 Units, with each Unit priced at $0.40 (forty cents). Each Unit consists of one common share and one full 60-cent (sixty cent) warrant with a 24-month term, with each such warrant being exercisable into a common share (the "Financing"). There is no acceleration clause on such warrants.

This is the second tranche of Units on which SBMI has closed. The first tranche of $764,000 was announced February 18, 2022. SBMI has further subscription agreements in hand which means SBMI will close on at least one further tranche before March 26, 2022.

These proceeds from the Financing will be used to complete the process of putting the Buckeye Silver Mine into pilot production in March, 2022, to advance work at the past-producing silver and gold Washington Mine in Idaho, and for working capital.

"This financing is a success for the company and the shareholders," said A. John Carter, SBMI's CEO. "Our original minimum target was $500,000 and the investors blew that number away. The funds raised in this financing have been budgeted to be more than enough to put the Buckeye Mine into production, to complete our mill, and to advance the Washington Mine to where it can be ready for mineral extraction."

Referral fees may be paid to arm's length persons in connection with the issuance of the Units. Other than the subscription agreement, there will be no further offering material provided to Existing Security Holders or others related to Financing. The subscription agreement is available at the Company's website https://www.silverbulletmines.com/technical-corporatedocuments.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Is First Mining Company in the Metaverse

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - March 10, 2022) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) ('SBMI' or 'the Company') announces its presence in the Metaverse, allowing users to learn about SBMI while enjoying a rich fun immersive experience. To the best of its research, SBMI is the first mining company to be there.

"We are always looking for ways to enrich our communications with the shareholders," said A. John Carter, SBMI's CEO. "Being first in the metaverse allows us to engage differently with a larger demographic."

SBMI's three worlds can be found here:

https://www.oculus.com/vr/4926980984085649/

https://www.oculus.com/vr/4904122299682803/

https://www.oculus.com/vr/4865898440129797/

In October 2021, Facebook Inc. changed its name to Meta, to reflect its commitment to this environment. Quoting from Meta's October 28, 2021 press release, "Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology."

 

To access the metaverse a user must currently use smart glasses or a headset and hand controls to walk, pick up things, push buttons and carry out other virtual actions. Facebook's parent company, Meta, has advised that it intends to soon release a version of its world-building software that will not require a headset or smart glasses. This will expand the metaverse's reach, and SBMI's worlds, to all internet users around the globe.

SBMI's worlds were designed and built by Shaxon Enterprises Inc. of Burlington, Ontario. According to Donald Shaxon, CEO, "I'm impressed with SBMI's forward thinking. They have staked an early claim to the next real means of communication. To me, a parallel can be drawn to the mid-1990s after HTML was formally published and Marc Andreeson then used it to co-create Mosaic, the first user-friendly web browser. Then the web exploded. That's where we are in the metaverse."

It was SBMI's intention that its worlds be released in conjunction with the world-famous PDAC (aka "The Mining Show") in early March, 2022. However, that conference has been moved to June, 2022 due to health and safety protocols. SBMI has decided to go live with its worlds now instead of waiting.

As SBMI's advances its mining projects, its worlds will be updated to integrate those advances.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Breaks into the Treasure Room and Reports Assay Results

 

March 1, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario –Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) provides an update on the timetable for production at its Buckeye Silver Mine near Globe, Arizona and reports assay results.

SBMI’s initial target at the Buckeye has been the high-grade polymetallic drift identified in 1976 by K.C. Delise, in a Mine Shaft Survey dated October 23, 1976 prepared by him for International Resources and Minerals Development Company. He identified this zone as extending approximately 500 feet along strike. He called this area the “Treasure Room”.

SBMI is pleased to announce its field team has blasted through into the Treasure Room, in exactly the location mapped by Mr. Delise. A video of the Treasure Room was taken by SBMI’s field team and can be seen at www.silverbulletmines.com.

“The Treasure Room is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen”, said Ron Murphy, SBMI’s VP, Mining. “I’m not exaggerating. This is where prior mining in 1873 ended when a cave-in took place. Now, with us having blasted in, I can see multiple adits and drifts like a honeycomb.”

The Treasure Room cannot be entered and no samples from the visible veins can be taken until timbering and other structural safety measures are taken. The Company estimates that will take three weeks to complete this work.

Although the Treasure Room itself cannot be entered at this time, samples were taken from what appears to be waste rock on the floor of the Treasure Room near the entranceway. Because SBMI has its own assay lab, those samples were run and returned values within 24 hours.

 

SBMI reports on those assay results as follows:

Chart March 1, 2022.jpg

Readers are cautioned the sampling results presented above are based on in-house analysis and are not yet verified by a third party independent and accredited laboratory. The Company intends to send samples from the mineralized vein material to such a laboratory as the workings are developed to confirm and verify the grades as the development is advanced. These results will be reported when available. These results are thus preliminary in nature and are used by management to direct its ongoing exploration and development programs at the Buckeye Mine.

 

“These results are both comforting and highly encouraging,” said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “They show the accuracy of the historical record and they indicate this is a richly mineralized zone. This is how real value is created for the shareholders.”

As SBMI reported on January 27, 2022, Mr. Delise’s assays from this same area dating from 1976 and 1977 returned spectacularly high values for gold, silver and copper. The highest value for gold was 4.8 oz/ton, for silver was 8,970 oz/ton, and for copper was 30.7%.

In addition to the Treasure Room samples, SBMI’s assay lab is currently processing samples taken from the material stockpiled by SBMI at the millsite. It is expected these samples will be low grade. These assay results will be very important to SBMI because this material will be the initial mill feed. Having the assay results in hand will enable SBMI to calculate potential recovery rates in anticipation of being in continuous pilot plant production with higher-grade material.

At the mill site, assembly and installation continue. Over the past week, the field team installed the grizzly, aligned the ball mill with the feed chute, finetuned the ball mill gear and pinion for maximum efficiency, and built a ramp and a retaining wall. Pictures of the assembly process are available at the Company’s website www.silverbulletmines.com and in its Twitter feed @BulletMines.

Management believes the mill will be ready for the initial test feed within four weeks, to be followed by a two-week test period. It is during this period that the low-grade material referred to above will be processed. Assuming no adverse results, the mill will then be put into production at full capacity, which is nameplated for 125 tonnes per day.

QA/QC at SBMI’s Facility

The samples analyzed by SBMI at its facility near Globe, Arizona were processed through the Lab Jaw Crusher, Lab Hammer Mill and Splitter Box into an aliquot. Most of the pulverized aliquot was mixed with a flux and flour combination and melted in a crucible at 1,850 degrees Fahrenheit, with the remainder being logged and archived. Upon cooling, the poured melt was in the form of a metal button and slag, following which a bone ash cupel was utilized to eliminate the lead in the button to form a bead.  The bead was then weighed, following which a solution of 6 to 1 distilled water to nitric acid was utilized to dissolve the silver in the bead at approximately 175 degrees Fahrenheit. A much more detailed description of the process and a picture of the assay lab can be found at https://www.silverbulletmines.com/qaqcassaylab. All sample pulps are retained in secured storage for future independent verification of the Company’s sampling and analysis procedures.

The Qualified Person for this press release is Mr. Ron Wortel, P.Eng., who oversaw all of SBMI’s work referred to herein. Mr. Wortel is also President and a director of the Company.

SILVER BULLET MINES CORP. SUCCESSFUL FINANCING - Closing First Tranche - $764,000

 

February 22, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario –Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces it has closed on $764,000, in its previously announced financing. This represents 1,910,000 Units, with each Unit priced at $0.40 (forty cents). Each Unit consists of one common share and one full 60-cent (sixty cent) warrant with a 24-month term, with each such warrant being exercisable into a common share (the “Financing”). There is no acceleration clause on such warrants. That pricing is at a 33% premium to the previous round of financing.

This is the first tranche of Units on which SBMI has closed. SBMI has subscription agreements in hand totalling roughly a further $500,000, which means SBMI will continue to close on further tranches over the next while as it collects funds.

These funds will be used to complete the process of putting the Buckeye Silver Mine into pilot production in March, 2022, to advance metallurgic work at the past-producing silver and gold Washington Mine in Idaho, and for working capital.

“What’s fascinating to me is the continued strong shareholder support,” said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “We are particularly pleased with the high percentage of subscribers in this financing who are already shareholders. Their repeat participation indicates a strong endorsement of SBMI’s business plan and our execution upon it. Because we took a non-traditional route, we remain on path to be in pilot production of silver this quarter.”

Referral fees may be paid to arm’s length persons in connection with the issuance of the Units. Other than the subscription agreement, there will be no further offering material provided to Existing Security Holders or others related to Financing. The subscription agreement is available at the Company’s website https://www.silverbulletmines.com/technical-corporatedocuments.

SILVER BULLET MINES CORP. SUCCESSFUL FINANCING

 

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 16, 2022) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) ('SBMI' or 'the Company') announced its intention to carry out an accretive non-brokered financing of Units. Each Unit is priced at $0.40 (forty cents) and comprises of one common share and one full 60-cent (sixty cent) warrant with a 24-month term, with each such warrant being exercisable into a common share (the "Financing"). There is no acceleration clause on such warrants. That pricing is at a 33% premium to the previous round of financing.

The Financing has received conditional approval from the TSX Venture Exchange. SBMI will begin closing on the Financing and will continue to close on the Financing in tranches over the next couple of weeks.

"The shareholders see the increased cost of almost everything since the pandemic started," said A. John Carter, SBMI's CEO. "Just go gas up your car or pick up a week's worth of groceries to feel it. We've had a similar experience at an operational level. Re-stocking the treasury is a prudent thing to do."

The February 9, 2022 release provided the minimum amount to be raised would be $500,000 (five hundred thousand dollars). To date the Company has subscription agreements representing more than $900,000, and based upon conversations between management and the investing public, expects further capital to be committed to SBMI as part of the Financing. These funds will be used to complete the process of putting the Buckeye Silver Mine into pilot production in March, 2022, to advance metallurgic work at the past-producing silver and gold Washington Mine in Idaho, and for working capital.

The February 9, 2022 release also announced SBMI had two lead orders on the Financing, one for CDN$180,000 and the other for USD$200,000. One of those orders has been upsized to CDN$200,000.

Referral fees may be paid to arm's length persons in connection with the issuance of the Units.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Advances Metallurgy in Idaho and Breaks into Target Zone in Arizona

 

February 14, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario –Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces significant achievements related to the Washington Mine in Idaho and the Buckeye Silver Mine in Arizona.

In Idaho, the Company has engaged the Center for Advanced Materials Processing (“CAMP”) of Montana Technical University, part of Montana University, to provide it with mineralogy, gravity, and flotation testwork. In Arizona, the field team has broken into what it believes to be the higher-grade mineralized zone, which appears to be located exactly where predicted by the historical records and SBMI’s own work.

Idaho and CAMP

SBMI purchased the past-producing Washington Mine on patented lands in Idaho in December, 2020. As reported on January 18, 2022, assay results from a blended bulk sample at the Washington Mine site averaged 55.5 ounces of silver per tonne. Values reported in that press release ran as high as 180 ounces silver per tonne and 18 grams of gold per tonne. Historical records and SBMI’s field work lead management to believe the Washington Mine is capable of near-term revenue generation.

As said by Mr. A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO, “We knew from historical records the Washington Mine was going to be good. We didn’t know it would be this good. We have to invest into the property to get it ready for mining.”

To advance its knowledge of the Washington Mine, SBMI has entered into an agreement with CAMP. Established in 1989, CAMP is a Montana University System designated Center of Excellence in Research and Education, located on the campus of Montana Technological University. CAMP's activities involve three components, namely, an analytical testing laboratory, a materials testing laboratory, and research program management. Included in the services CAMP will provide to SBMI are the following:

  • Automated Mineralogy by SEM and EDS utilizing TESCAN’s Integrated Mineral Analysis (TIMA) software include model mineralogy liberation and associations up to 5 size fractions;

  • XRD: Mineralogy by X-Ray Diffraction;

  • Sample prep to 95% passing ¼ inch and rotary split;

  • Grind determinations to establish a grind curve;

  • Falcon evaluation and Table evaluations; and

  • Flotation evaluations, fire assay, acid digestion and ICP-OES.

 

SBMI will use CAMP’s results to design a flowsheet intended to maximize the recoveries at the Washington Mine in Idaho and to reduce overall milling costs for the Washington Mine ore. This relationship with CAMP is made possible at this time by the Company currently carrying out a financing to buttress its treasury (press release of February 9, 2022).

The current plan, depending upon the quantum raised in the current ongoing financing and the results from CAMP’s tests, is to be on site at the Washington Mine by the end of March, 2022 and to then immediately commence collecting mineralized material. That material will come from surface, having been hauled to surface by prior owners who were seeking gold, and from development of the historical underground workings. The goal is to be generating revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022. This is another example of SBMI thinking outside the box by establishing a cash flow model to fund future operations, reduce dilution, and create value for its shareholders.

Target Zone in Arizona

The field team in Arizona last week blasted into what is believed to be the higher-grade silver mineralized zone at the Buckeye Silver Mine. As previously disclosed SBMI’s target is the high-grade silver zone identified in 1976 by K.C. Delise, an Arizona geologist, in a report titled Surface/Underground Mapping and Sampling. In his report he mapped and identified this zone as extending approximately 500 feet along strike.

Locating what is believed to be the higher-grade silver zone is a major development as:

  1. It should provide SBMI’s mill with higher-grade material, which can be blended with lower-grade material to increase the mill’s operating efficiencies;

  2. It validates the Company’s mine plan for the Buckeye; and

  3. The mineralized zone appears to be located exactly where predicted by SBMI’s field team and by Mr. Delise. This gives a very high level of confidence as to future decisions at the Buckeye and at SBMI’s other past-producing mines.

 

“This is old school mining,” said Mr. Carter. “We know where the mineralization is, so we’re going to spend shareholder money making money.”

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Announces Financing With 2 Lead Orders

 

February 9, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces its intention to carry out an accretive non-brokered financing of Units. Each Unit will be priced at $0.40 (forty cents) per Unit and will comprise of one common share and one full 60-cent (sixty cent) warrant with a 24-month term, with each such warrant being exercisable into a common share (the “Financing”). Readers are reminded the Qualifying Transaction that resulted in SBMI being a reporting issuer in December, 2021 was carried out at $0.30 per share.

“As we’ve disclosed many times, the global supply chain has been problematic for us,” said Mr. A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “Unavoidable third-party delays, especially through the port of Long Beach, caused the Company to consume working capital that otherwise would not have been consumed. Further, with the passage of time, we have experienced pandemic-related increases in the cost of parts, logistics, fuel and supplies. All of this has put stress on the treasury. While SBMI continues to have considerable cash in its account, effecting a financing now is a combination of insurance and ensuring SBMI can execute on its revised 2022 plans in both Arizona and better-than-expected Idaho. It’s the responsible thing to do.”

The minimum and maximum gross proceeds from the Financing will be $500,000 (five hundred thousand dollars) and $2,000,000 (two million dollars), respectively. The minimum and maximum number of Units to issue as a result of the Financing are 1,250,000 and 5,000,000, respectively. Units will be allocated on a first come, first served basis although SBMI retains the right to accept or reject subscription agreements in its sole discretion.

SBMI has two lead orders on the Financing, one for CDN$180,000 and the other for USD$200,000, from two existing shareholders who are accredited investors, who each committed to participating in the Financing without knowing its terms. Other existing shareholders have also expressed an interest in participating in the Financing without knowing its terms.

Net proceeds from the Financing, assuming the minimum, will be used to fund operations in Arizona until the Buckeye Silver Mine begins generating revenue, most likely in May, 2022 (see SBMI press release dated February 7, 2022 for details on the timing of revenue generation). Net proceeds from the Financing, assuming the maximum, will be used to fund and expand operations in Arizona until the Buckeye Silver Mine begins generating revenue (up to approximately $800,000), to fund development of the Washington Mine in Idaho (up to approximately $500,000), and to fund exploration and development of the McMorris Mine in Arizona (up to approximately $500,000). In either case some of the proceeds will fund costs related to the Financing, working capital and overhead. The amount of costs related to the Financing will vary depending upon the amount paid as referral fees, which is unknown as this time.

SBMI purchased the Washington Mine in Idaho in December, 2020. The Company expected to warehouse that property until after the Buckeye Silver Mine began generating revenue so minimal allocation was made for it in SBMI’s 2021 or 2022 budget. However, preliminary work at the Washington Mine revealed it could be capable of near-term revenue generation, resulting in the January 18, 2022 press release disclosing the assay results from a blended bulk sample of 55.5 oz/t silver. Management wants to accelerate work at the Washington Mine which will require some of the capital being raised in the Financing.

Customary prospectus exemptions will be relied upon for the Financing, including the “Accredited Investor” exemption and the “Distributions to Existing Security Holders” exemption pursuant to section 2.9 of Ontario Securities Commission Rule 45-501 (the ‘Existing Securityholder Exemption’). Management believes this to be a democratic means of effecting the Financing.

Investors subscribing for Units under the Existing Securityholder Exemption must meet certain conditions set out in Rule 45-501. The Company has set Monday, February 7, 2022 as the record date. Subscribers purchasing Units under the Existing Shareholder Exemption will need to represent in writing that they meet certain requirements of the Existing Shareholder Exemption, including that they were, on such record date, a common shareholder of the Company and still are a shareholder as at the closing date. The aggregate acquisition cost to a subscriber under the Existing Shareholder Exemption cannot exceed $15,000 in the 12-month period immediately preceding the closing of the Financing, unless that subscriber has obtained advice from a registered investment dealer regarding the suitability of the investment. There is no minimum subscription amount. Any SBMI shareholder can subscribe, subject to the conditions above and in the subscription agreement.

Referral fees may be paid to arm’s length persons in connection with the issuance of the Units. Other than the subscription agreement, there will be no further offering material provided to Existing Security Holders or others related to Financing. The subscription agreement is available at the Company’s website https://www.silverbulletmines.com/technical-corporatedocuments. The Financing is subject to regulatory approval.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Sets Timetable for Silver Production

 

February 7, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces the arrival of its third and final shipping container at its millsite near Globe, Arizona.

The container finally cleared through the port of Long Beach and its contents were delivered to the millsite this past weekend. This container holds the motor and drive train for the ball mill, which are the final major components required to complete construction. The Company will now be able to locally acquire further minor parts as needed as Globe is a ‘mining town’ home to various mining supply stores.

Feb 7, - picture - press release.jpg

The picture above is a recent one from the millsite showing one of the four conveyors being installed. The actual ball mill is the large steel object to the middle left.

“This is a tremendously important milestone for the shareholders,” said A. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO. “The delivery of the motor and drive train was the only major factor beyond our control. It’s been painful to see costs increase while we had to wait for these items. Now, it should take between 30 and 40 days to complete construction, following which the field team will run roughly two weeks’ worth of low-grade material to fine-tune the components. Then we intend to start processing the higher-grade material from our nearby Buckeye Silver Mine.”

In anticipation of the mill’s imminent completion SBMI stockpiled at the millsite mineralized material extracted from the Buckeye Silver Mine. Like any responsible producer SBMI has its own assay lab, at which it will run daily assays for grade control, cost control and immediacy of results.

Once in production SBMI intends to produce silver dore bars, to be sold to a smelter or a commodities trader. SBMI is in discussions with several such groups in anticipation of having saleable product in April, 2022, which means the Company anticipates being in receipt of cash payments soon thereafter. Those cash payments will buttress SBMI’s treasury, which since the start of the pandemic has suffered through escalating costs of shipping, parts, supplies, fuel, services and equipment.

“Getting into production logically leads to risk-mitigating cash flow into the Company,” said Mr. Carter. “Then we can turn our efforts to the Washington Mine in Idaho and the McMorris Mine in Arizona, both former producers. The Washington Mine seems to be even better than we expected, as shown by the recent bulk sample results returning 55.5 oz/t silver.”

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Commences Extraction of Mineralized Material at its Buckeye Silver Mine in Arizona

 

January 27, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) announces it has begun extracting mineralized material from its Buckeye Silver Mine in Arizona after taking delivery of its first shipment of blasting powder. SBMI’s intention is to produce an initial total of 10,000 tonnes of mineralized material at a rate of 125 tonnes per day.

SBMI also announces it has been invited by the TMX Group to ring the bell at market open on Monday, January 31st at 9:30 am Eastern Standard Time, a rare honour for a new junior mining company.

Jan 26 - blasting 2.jpg

SBMI’s initial target is the high-grade silver zone identified in 1976 by K.C. Delise, a Registered Geologist, in a report titled Surface/Underground Mapping and Sampling. Accompanying the report was a Mine Shaft Survey dated October 23, 1976 prepared by him for International Resources and Minerals Development Company. In his report he mapped and identified this zone as extending approximately 500 feet along strike.

The Company has found a summary of assay results from 1976 and 1977 from Clarkson Labs of San Diego, CA. SBMI believes these resulted from samples taken by Delise in his 1976 field work at the Buckeye. These assays returned spectacularly high values for gold, silver and copper. The highest value for gold was 4.8 opt, for silver was 8,970 opt, and for copper was 30.7%.

This information is historical in nature and pre-dates NI43-101. SBMI does not know the methods by which such work was carried out, or whether all or part of it was under the supervision of a Qualified Person, as that term is defined in NI43-101. SBMI refers to such data and observations to inform its knowledge of the area.

Nick Barr, one of SBMI’s consulting geologists, carried out his own analysis of Delise’s work in 2015, as part of which he produced notes, sections and longitudinals. He also plotted the 1976 Clarkson Labs assay results noted above onto Mr. Delise’s original Mining Shaft Survey. In addition to Delise’s and other historical records, SBMI is also relying upon these documents created by Mr. Barr as well as his current first-hand experience at the Buckeye.

“This is a significant accomplishment”, said SBMI’s VP Mining, Mr. Ron Murphy. “We have completed the rehabilitation of the underground and have commenced mining as we blast into what we believe to be Delise’s documented high-grade zone. The training, experience and talent of our seasoned mining crew has allowed us to achieve these goals in a short period of time.”

The mineralized material blasted and extracted from the Buckeye will be stockpiled at SBMI’s proximate millsite for eventual processing at SBMI’s gravity pilot plant, which is nearing completion. The Company also plans to run assays in its own assay facility on-site on multiple samples from the mineralized material to determine grades.

As previously disclosed, SBMI’s assay lab on-site in Arizona is managed by Robert Budd, a Metallurgical Process Engineer who began his career in metallurgical engineering in 1972. He has held various positions with various employers including Senior Engineer, Superintendent, Engineer, Technical Assistant, Technician, and Lab Assistant. Most recently, prior to joining SBMI he was involved in designing and creating an internal assay facility in Arizona for Freeport McMorran Inc. Working with Mr. Budd in SBMI’s assay facility is Vic Power, a Registered Professional Assayer for the state of Arizona. Mr. Budd and Mr. Power will ensure all QA/QC practices will be adhered to, including sending samples from each run to an independent accredited lab for corroboration.

It is intended the state-of-the-art gravity pilot plant should be ready to commence the processing of mineralized material in approximately sixty days, depending on the timing of delivery of certain mill items. Such deliveries are beyond SBMI’s control. The progress of both the mine and mill can be followed at www.silverbulletmines.com or on Twitter @bulletmines.

“Having our own assay lab and mill should make us incredibly efficient,” said Mr. John Carter, SBMI’s CEO who also designed the gravity pilot plant. “We will be able to have assay results back in less than a day, which will empower us to select mineralization within our target ranges to process.”

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Assays 55.5 Oz/Ton Silver from a Bulk Sample at its 100%-Owned Washington Mine in Idaho

 

January 18, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to report excellent assay results from a bulk sample from its Washington Mine in Idaho (the ‘Property’). The assay results from SBMI’s own assay lab on site have been corroborated by a third-party accredited lab.

“The importance of these results cannot be overstated,” said A. John Carter, the Company’s CEO. “These results support three important conclusions. First, they are in line with historical data, which increases our comfort level with using that data for guidance. Second, they show the Property is still mineralized with silver and gold. Third, and I think most importantly, it confirms that QA/QC processes both in our own lab and at the third-party lab return very similar results. This further validates our lab.”

The results are below. Lines 1, 2, 3 and 4 were processed in SBMI’s lab in Arizona. Line 5 was processed by Paragon Geochemical, a third-party lab. These values are in oz/ton silver.

sbmi chart Jan 18, 2022 Cropped_edited_e

Paragon also assayed for gold, which across the four quarters returned 1.82g/t, 2.49g/t, 1.77g/t, and 1.4g/t respectively. SBMI did not assay for gold.

As indicated above the SBMI average across all quarters was 55.5 oz/ton silver. This equates to over 1,902 g/t silver at a conversion rate of 34.285.  SBMI collected the bulk sample from eight locations at the Property. The material from each of the eight locations was blended into an 80-kilogram bulk sample, with the result being crushed and quartered. Five kilograms of material was removed from each quarter and processed by SBMI as sixteen assays in total. Five kilograms of material was removed from each quarter and processed by Paragon as four assays.

The Company intends to send the fourth quarter of the bulk sample for ore characterization and metallurgical testing to Montana Technical University, Centre for Advanced Mineral Processing. The remaining parts of the bulk sample including the pulps and rejects have been retained by SBMI as part of its QA/QC practices.

SBMI’s assay lab on-site in Arizona is managed by Robert Budd, a Metallurgical Process Engineer who began his career in metallurgical engineering in 1972. He has held various positions with various employers including Senior Engineer, Superintendent, Engineer, Technical Assistant, Technician, and Lab Assistant. Most recently, prior to joining SBMI he was involved in designing and creating an internal assay facility in Arizona for Freeport McMorran Inc. He has also been the Chief Metallurgist for Northern Sphere Mining Corporation in Arizona, the Principal Process Specialist for Fluor Canada out of Vancouver, the Senior Metallurgical Engineer for Doe Run Lead, the Project Engineer for the commissioning of a copper concentrator start-up at Oz Minerals’ Prominent Hill Mine in South Australia, Senior Metallurgical Engineer for Cyprus Miami/Phelps Dodge Miami in Arizona, Metallurgical Engineer and Metallurgical Lab Supervisor for Newmont Gold in Nevada, and Chief Metallurgist for Inspiration/Cyprus Miami in Arizona among other positions.

Working with Mr. Budd in SBMI’s assay facility is Vic Power, a Registered Professional Assayer for the state of Arizona.

“We have an extremely high level of confidence in our team and in the accuracy of our assays”, said Mr. Carter. “Today’s results only add to that confidence.” SBMI’s management believes these assays confirm the tenor and range of grades reported historically from the silver veins, but cautions they may not be representative of the average grade of mineralization within the full width or extent of any of the muck piles or mineralized structures present on the Property.

 

The next steps at the Property are to continue sampling, to take the steps necessary to go underground for visual inspection and sampling, and then to take a larger bulk sample. As the Property is on patented lands the process of permitting required to re-open the Washington Mine is more streamlined. SBMI is in discussions with third parties for the purchase of the resulting ore and/or concentrate and has identified potential mill facilities near the Property. SBMI is also considering whether to ship larger samples from the Washington Mine to SBMI’s assay facility in Arizona.

Meanwhile, in Arizona, SBMI continues to advance work at the mill site and mine site at its massive Black Diamond property, which hosts among others the Buckeye Silver Mine. SBMI has been advised it has been moved up the list for the unloading of its shipping container at Long Beach, but cannot provide a firm date upon which such unloading will take place. Assuming it takes place in the next two weeks, SBMI is still on a timeline for pilot production at the Buckeye Silver Mine by the end of this quarter.

QA/QC at SBMI’s Facility

The samples analyzed by SBMI at its facility near Globe, Arizona were processed through the Lab Jaw Crusher, Lab Hammer Mill and Splitter Box into an aliquot. Most of the pulverized aliquot was mixed with a flux and flour combination and melted in a crucible at 1,850 degree Fahrenheit, with the remainder being logged and archived. Upon cooling, the poured melt was in the form of a metal button and slag, following which a bone ash cupel was utilized to eliminate the lead in the button to form a bead.  The bead was then weighed, following which a solution of 6 to 1 distilled water to nitric acid was utilized to dissolve the silver in the bead at approximately 175 degrees Fahrenheit. 

QA/QC at Paragon

The samples reported above were collected by the Company’s project geologist and then bagged, labeled, securely stored and sent to Paragon Geochemical in Sparks, Nevada following the Company’s standard QA/QC protocols and the use of independent testing labs. Silver and gold values were determined using fire assay with gravimetric finish using SOP-230. Paragon Geochemical is an IAS accredited full service geochemical laboratory in compliance with ISO/IEC Standard 17025:2017. It also holds a Certificate of Registration for its Quality Management System under ISO 9001:2015 for the testing of metal content in metal and mineral samples for mining companies.

The Qualified Person for this press release is Mr. Ron Wortel, P.Eng., who oversaw all of SBMI’s work referred to herein. Mr. Wortel is also President and a director of the Company.

StockHouse Editorial 

Please see below article written by Stockhouse not Silver Bullet.   Silver Bullet  neither condones nor condemns any part of it .

Real High-Grade Silver in the Shadow of the Headframe

In mining terms, a place you are likely to dig up the best results is known as “the shadow of headframes” - next to established mines, and it is a phrase that Canadian-based Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMIForum) has taken as its mantra as it reboots several former producing silver mines in Arizona.
Its flagship project is the Black Diamond, close to 20.2 sq. km. (5,000 acres) in the renowned Miami-Globe copper camp.
Silver Bullet has five former producers on its massive Black Diamond property in Arizona, which state was named the world’s second-best mining jurisdiction in 2020 by the Fraser Institute. The company is on path to have one of those former producers in pilot production this quarter. That one should be its Buckeye Silver Mine near Globe, Arizona, about 120 km east of Phoenix.
Black Diamond is centred on the Richmond Basin. The Richmond Basin is host to original 1870s native silver discoveries that first brought prospectors to the camp. The company’s name was inspired by a local legend - one of the first scouting parties to the area were shot at by the local Indigenous people using bullets made from silver.

Black Diamond also hosts the following former producers:

· McMorris Mine – 213 metre (700 ft.) shaft
· McClellan Mine – 76 metre (250 ft) shaft
· Silver Sevens Mine - multiple adits
· La Plata Mine - multiple adits


The McMorris Mine constitutes 21% of the surface area of the company’s property and has produced approximately 500,000 ounces at 250 oz/ton in direct shipping ore until 1893. Using $7/oz silver and $450/oz gold, a geologist in 1987 calculated the gross economic value of McMorris at USD$480M (Arturo, “Progress Report, Mc Morris Mine and Richmond Basin Areas”, 1987). (This of course pre-dates NI43-101.)
Since the early 20th century, very little silver was produced from the area, as the camp was then focused on large copper mines. However, what anchors this section is a series of mines located in what is known as the Arizona Silver Belt, which extends from the Silver King near Superior, AZ and parallels the trend of the major copper deposits including the Magma Mine.
The team leading Silver Bullet Mines believe that in addition to the known mineralization at the Buckeye, the high-grade silver is still there waiting at the other sites for discovery.

A silver property next to the Black Diamond Project was optioned by third parties in 2020 for roughly USD$9.5M, and is roughly 20% the size of Black Diamond.

Pilot plant:

As a proof of concept, from 5 tons of ore from the Buckeye Mine, Silver Bullet recently produced 500 ounces of silver. Now the company is installing a modular mill on its 65-acre mining patented property less than a kilometre from the Buckeye Mine site.

The mill consists of three main expandable and transportable modules: crushing; grinding; and, gravity.

The plant is roughly 90% complete, as the company waits for a shipping container to pass through the Long Beach supply chain. The plant has a maximum daily processing capability of 125 tons of feed material. This plant will replace the current pilot plant and should give Silver Bullet the capacity to handle larger bulk samples.


SBMI owns almost all its equipment at the Buckeye and the mill site, including an LDF, a 2boom jumbo, and a large bobcat, which reduces cash-draining debt going forward. SBMI also has its own assay lab that should enable the team to determine sample mineralization grade on a continuous basis and to confirm recoveries. Owning its own mill, assay lab and equipment gives Silver Bullet tremendous control over its costs.

In anticipation of potential Q1 pilot silver production, roughly 1,000 tonnes of ore has been stockpiled at the Buckeye.

Financing & risk mitigation:

Silver Bullet valued its entire project at $8.8 million for the purposes of the financing and RTO, which is one of the reasons the team was able to raise as much money as it had in a relatively brief amount of time. In an interview with Stockhouse Editorial, Silver Bullet Mines’ executives explained that the team intentionally structured the investment to be incredibly enticing to retail investors, to provide a significant upside.

The agreement between Silver Bullet Mines and Pinehurst Capital 1 called for Silver Bullet to raise a minimum of CDN$3M. By the time Silver Bullet listed its shares in December, 2021, it had raised over $6.1M.

Achieving pilot production should provided near-term cash flow, which also provides significant risk mitigation around the project. This puts Silver Bullet in the “PreProduction Sweet Spot”, where risks are greatly mitigated but the upside appears large.

Future outlook:

The silver market has had a noteworthy run in 2021. The company remains bullish on where the commodity is headed.

The company has been clear about its plans, which are:


1. Put the Buckeye Silver Mine in pilot production in Q1/22, followed by full-scale production;
2. Finalize plans to have the McMorris Silver Mine back in production within 24 months;
3. Carry out exploration programs elsewhere on Black Diamond to enable a decision on the order in which the remaining former producers will be put back in production;
4. Investigate the waste rock on surface at the Washington Mine in Idaho; and
5. Defend the treasury.

Investment conclusion:

The demand for silver is expected to see continued strength throughout 2021, with the global total forecast projected to reach a six-year high this year of over 1 billion ounces. This demand should continue as silver is essential to the Green Revolution. It is a key part of solar panels, and is a prime conductor necessary for electronics and electric vehicles.

This company has a tight share structure. There are 55M shares issued and outstanding with roughly 29M in a staggered release escrow. Insiders own roughly 30% of the company. No options were granted at less than the financing price.

The Silver Bullet Mines story is a concise one that spells out a lot of potential for investors – a solid plan for past-producing silver mines.

Silver Bullet Mines Corp. Provides Pilot Plant Construction Update

January 5, 2022 - Burlington, Ontario - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV:SBMI) (‘SBMI’ or ‘the Company’) is very pleased to provide an update on the construction of its modular pilot plant in Arizona.

The plant is wholly-owned by SBMI and is intended upon completion to process up to 125 metric tonnes of material per day. It is of modular design capable of being expanded in size and modified as required.  The plant is being constructed on SBMI-owned private property approximately 8 miles from Globe, Arizona and in proximity to its Buckeye Silver Mine. As per the flow chart below, the plant is state of the art.

0000-PFD-001-1 SEPRO STYLE-REV_X.jpg

“The leadership team at SBMI has a substantial equity position so we like all shareholders are thrilled to see the plant be built as designed,” said A. John Carter, the Company’s CEO. “Despite ongoing supply chain issues and exorbitant material and transportation cost increases, we remain on track to start commissioning in the first quarter of 2022. In anticipation of that commissioning, the Company has approximately 1000 tonnes of material already stockpiled for feed.”

The plant consists of a coarse ore feed bin, a fine ore bin, two stage crushing and screening, and a variable speed computer-controlled feed belt that leads to a grinding circuit. The grinding circuit is a ball mill in closed circuit with a bank of cyclones. The plan is for product from the ball mill to be pumped directly to a pair of Falcon concentrators. The product from the concentrators is then fed by gravity to a full size Diester concentrating table. Tailings from the Falcons and from the table are returned to the grinding circuit.

The cyclones then split the feed with the oversize material going back to the ball mill and the undersize material going to the tailings thickener. Processed material of the appropriate size is then sent to the bullion furnace where dore bars are poured. All tailings are dewatered and all available water is recycled.

The plant is designed to maximize the recovery of both gold and silver, although its modular nature means it can be adjusted to recover other metals.

Currently over 90% of the necessary equipment is onsite and being assembled (go to www.silverbulletmines.com to see pictures of the plant being built, or follow on Twitter @BulletMines). The remainder is in a container in Long Beach, California waiting to be off-loaded, on a timeline beyond the Company’s control. Some small items are to be purchased as required.

pics dec 30 -1.jpg

Overview of SBMI’s mill site, showing the fine and coarse ore bins on the right, the ball mill in the middle, and assorted equipment to the left.

In addition to owning its own processing plant, SBMI owns an on-site assay facility which can provide assay results in less than a day. It also owns its own 2-boom jumbo, LHD (load-haul-dump), large Bobcat, and various other equipment. Owning all this equipment will allow the Company to process feed material quickly, efficiently and economically, as well as to generate revenue, without debt payments draining cash. The Company is in discussions with various groups concerning the purchase of both the dore and the concentrates.

Finally, SBMI announces it does not intend to spend capital on a third party resource estimate or Preliminary Economic Analysis for the Buckeye Silver Mine. In the Company’s opinion, given the nature of the known mineralization, the extensive historical third-party documentation, and the leadership team’s direct experience at Buckeye, a third party resource estimate or PEA would be prohibitively expensive to have written without actually advancing the Company’s knowledge of the Buckeye. “This is old school mining,” continued Mr. Carter, “and for this project it’s the right way. Producing from 6-foot wide silver veins is not your standard mining opportunity, which means it requires a non-standard approach. Here, we believe the right approach is to carry out our own internal economic analysis.”

The next major events at Buckeye will be the arrival on-site of the third container through the Long Beach supply chain, and the delivery of assay results from a third party accredited lab on one-quarter of the 150 pound bulk sample announced December 15, 2021. The Company has no direct control over the timing of either of those events but does continue to work with its suppliers to expedite them a much as possible.

Update, December 31, 2021 - John Carter, CEO

 

We trust everyone is having a great holiday season all things considered !

 

I thought this would be a good opportunity to give everybody a quick review of the last twelve months and try to show the unbelievable strides we made through a very difficult year. When we started the year we were getting things together we had just closed on our Idaho property. We knew it was a great acquisition with great potential but never imagined how big an asset it could really be.

 

So let's just review the then and now of 2021:

When the year started we were confident and encouraged by the interest in Silver Bullet Mines "SBMI" and the potential success of our financing.  Little did we know we would blow past our initial raise by the time we finally closed in July.  At the time little did we know what lay ahead. 

So with cash in hand and a very tight budget we set off to change the way junior mining is done. We wanted to create our own feasibility study by doing it ourselves. We wanted to build our pilot plant based on a bulk sample we had done and take the next steps forward while generating cashflow. Novel approach for a junior mining company to generate free cashflow thus reducing its dependency on a fickle market , reducing the number of financings required, all the while building a resource. 

The other thing we wanted actually needed to do was take Silver Bullet Mines public on the TSXV. That turned out to be not only time consuming and expensive, but also one of the most frustrating things I have ever been involved in. What was supposed to be done by the end of the first quarter of 2021 took until the fourth quarter. We faced unbelievable delays and problems that had nothing to do with the company. That said we did get it done and commenced trading on Dec. 6th. Next up, we looking into getting a listing in the United States on the OTCQB .

Meanwhile at both sites, Arizona and Idaho, our team focused on the task at hand.  In Arizona that included getting back underground and accessing the ore, building an assay facility to handle all the assays needed to run a successful mining operation. Some said why your own assay facility?  We said all good mining companies have their own facilities we can't wait weeks to get results we need them now.  Of course the most important thing was to get started on the pilot plant itself.  We chose to build a 125 MTPD state of the art high efficiency gravity mill with the best equipment designed to provide high recoveries. 

Step one in the process was to find a site to handle the requirements of a plant that size.  We found and bought a 70 acre site with room to expand and started the process.  Then reality hit ! All our budgets were based on written quotes with a substantial cushion. Well were we ever surprised when material pricing went up in some cases by 300% and higher. Equipment prices doubled. Supply chain issues are being felt by everyone we are no exception. Transportation of containers went from $16,900.00 to $76,000.00. The US put a 25% tariff on equipment that we could not even buy in the US and of course deliveries went from 8-10 weeks to 16-20 weeks.

 

We still have one container sitting in Long Beach harbour that we hope will be offloaded by the end of January 2022 ! This really affected our schedule which was realistically set for Quarter 4 but now is Quarter 1 2022. 

All that said our team has done an incredible job in facing the challenges and overcoming all the hurdles to build our plant and except for the delays we are managing to keep to our revised budgets and have the money to complete the plant.  Check out the Twitter feed @BulletMines. What other junior mining company can tell its shareholders to go there and watch a plant being built?

The Buckeye Mine is faring better our mine team has hit all its targets opened up the underground, has stockpiled approx. 1000 tons of material for feed during commissioning of the mill and is currently waiting to receive our first explosives order ( this week ) so we can start building our  stockpiles.  Quite a feat!  All done to Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) standards we are adamant about safety!!

So on to Idaho I know many of you have heard the story but I think it is worth repeating.  We tried to buy the property in 2016 from the previous owner, price tag $5M and a 5% NSR. We knew the property was worth it but you could never raise that much money with that NSR.  He would not budge.  Fast forward 2020 the gentleman passed away and his family wanted it gone.  They called us and gave us a price and we closed in 10 days no NSR and a lot less money.  We feel it is a great acquisition.  Then we went in to start to confirm up all the history from the documents we had,  things like 3 M ounces silver at 30 to 90 ounces per ton. High grade silver zone and high grade gold, also potential parallel structure. So far we have found nothing to indicate these are not true.  Just look at the assay numbers in our last press release!  We are currently moving towards contract mining and have taken a blended sample that is being analyzed.  All indications are pointing toward success.  

So here we are the end of 2021 can't say I am sorry to see it go but through all the trials and tribulations we persevered and I see nothing but great things for this company in 2022!! It is important to note everything you see we own.  All equipment currently onsite is paid in full even the equipment waiting to be delivered is paid for, even the tariffs.  I know there are guys out there that think we should be doing things differently to them I say watch us grow! To those who have supported us right from the get go I say thank you, you will not be disappointed.  To our shareholders your continuing support is what will make our stock move higher and we thank you!  To our team I say thank you, your optimism, encouragement, support, hard work, and belief in the plan and the company is what is going to make Silver Bullet Mines a leader in the mining industry.

Enjoy your New Years celebration and again thank you!

Silver Bullet Mines Reports 6,174 g/t Silver and 18 g/t Gold at Its Washington Mine in Idaho

Newsfile Dec 15, 2021 8:00 AM EST

 

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - December 15, 2021) - Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) ("SBMI" or "the Company") is pleased to announce the first technical disclosure on its work at the Washington Mine on patented lands in the prolific placer gold district in Idaho (the "Property"). Three rounds of sampling were carried out and are reported below.

The results from these rounds provided confirmation of the high grade nature of the Property's mineralization potential; direction for the development of a bulk sampling program; and, discovery of parallel mineralized structures. These sets of results indicate the potential for the development of early production from the site through bulk sampling and for the ongoing discovery and development of additional silver and gold resources.

History

The references below to data and observations derived from work not carried out by SBMI is of historical nature only and cannot be relied upon at this time. SBMI does not know the methods by which such work was carried out, or whether all or part of it was under the supervision of a Qualified Person, as that term is defined in NI43-101. SBMI refers to such data and observations to inform its knowledge of the area and to support its thesis for exploration.

The Property first saw production in the late 1800's with an average gold grade of one ounce per ton. It again produced in the 1930's during which the then-owner lacked the process capability needed to produce silver, so a decision was then made to block out the silver mineralization with the intention of returning at a future date to process the silver. To the best of SBMI's knowledge, that never happened. A report included an estimate of 3 million ounces of silver with a grade of 30 to 90 ounces per ton and 15,000 ounces of gold at 0.3 ounces per ton for the veins identified on the Property at the time. Further work must be carried out to confirm the precise location of those veins and the property boundaries at the time. (Source, "Geological Evaluation", Roger G. Stoker, P.G. and Ryne C. Stoker, Student Geologist, Energy Services Inc., December, 1981.)

In the 1980's the previous owner reopened the underground and produced a bulk sample claimed to be representative of the silver mineralization in the Washington Vein. The bulk sample was sent to Hecla Smelting for processing with the head grade reported to be 44 ounces silver per ton. (Source, Stoker, ibid.)

Finally, Stoker indicated the location of the "Berger Vein", described as a "gold ore shoot 25 feet wide, 135 feet long, and unknown depth." Average grades were given as 0.3 oz/ton gold with unknown silver content. Additional notes in Stoker suggest that the Berger Vein was intersected in drifting at the 400 foot level.

SBMI's 2021 Work Program - Overview

Following its purchase of the Washington Mine, the Company conducted mapping, sampling and grid soil geochemistry, and prepared staging areas for pending underground rehab and bulk sampling.

Efforts also focused on securing permits, engaging contractors, cutting timber for mine support, and making improvements to the access road. Geologic interpretation of field data is ongoing, and SBMI remains very encouraged with initial findings. Management believes the evidence to date supports historical accounts of previously mined grades and of the presence of strongly mineralized parallel vein structures.

SBMI's 2021 Work Program - Step One

During Covid-19 shutdowns and while waiting for corporate paperwork to be processed, SBMI reassessed the Property's historical data and based upon its conclusions, SBMI assayed samples of mineralized vein material that it had collected in December, 2020. The highlights of those assays are below:

The complete table will be posted at SBMI's web site www.silverbulletmines.com. Readers are cautioned that samples are by their nature selective and may not reflect the overall nature of the property. The values above for silver in oz/ton were rounded off to the nearest digit.

Said A. John Carter, SBMI's CEO, "Based in part on the historical records we knew we had a high possibility of success at the Washington Mine. We were pleasantly surprised the values in the samples were as high as they were. Those values required immediate follow-up."

SBMI's Work Program - Step Two

In July of 2021 the Company completed a limited grid soil sampling program of approximately 50 sites on three lines on each side of the Washington Shaft. The program was designed to provide an initial data set for the discovery of potential parallel mineralized structures. The sampling results from the west side of the Washington Shaft did not identify any mineralized structures within the grid.

The samples from the east grid did return significant results in terms of grade and location. The highlights from this limited program included 9.13, 4.58, and 1.06 g/t gold across three lines in near surface soil samples. The Company believes these are very good grades for soil samples and for this limited amount of sampling.

The samples collected by SBMI are located in a zone where the historical reports indicated the location of the "Berger Vein", referenced above in Stoker. The initial results above encouraged the field team to specifically map and sample this mineralized structure. The Company is waiting on the assay results of this targeted sampling program.

SBMI's Work Program - Step Three

The follow-up also involved additional investigations and site work. SBMI carried out a more detailed sampling program, including exposing the vein at surface, opening the adit, sampling across the vein, sampling the historical ore bins in the Washington Shaft, sampling the crushed ore from the south shaft stockpile, and sampling the Weatherby Portal.

This program was extremely successful. Highlights of the assay results from the sampling program are below.

*LDL = Lower Detection Limit as provided by the Certified Assay Lab

The full table will be posted at the company's website.

Continued Mr. Carter, "We were blown away by these results. While we expected strong values from the samples, especially from the crushed rock in the stockpile, we did not expect the ore bin to show over 180 ounces of silver per tonne and over six grams of gold per tonne. These are great numbers for our shareholders."

SBMI also collected a small bulk sample from the available vein mineralization from the Property. This sample was crushed and quartered. One-quarter is out for assay at SBMI's own assay facility in Arizona, one-quarter is out for assay at an independent lab, and one-quarter has been sent for ore characterization. The final quarter is retained by SBMI as part of QA/QC best practices. SBMI will report the results of the bulk sample as soon it receives the results from the independent third-party lab.

SBMI's Work Program - Next Steps

SBMI is currently working with a contract miner on possible plans to reopen the Washington Mine. SBMI received a road upgrade permit from the US Forest Service and a Federal Mine ID number. As the mine is on patented lands the amount of permitting that is required is limited. SBMI is in discussions with third parties for the purchase of the resulting ore and/or concentrate and has identified potential mill facilities near the Property.

Management feels strongly that the Property fits precisely into its business model of high-grade lower risk near-term production, significant resource potential and substantial blue sky.

The Company will be providing a further update in the near future. A more detailed report on the Property can be found on our website www.silverbulletmines.com .

QA/QC

All of the samples taken by SBMI and referred to in this release were processed by Paragon Geochemical of Sparks, Nevada, an independent certified lab. Paragon tests for a 35 element suite using 0.25g 4-acid digestion/ICP-OES. Samples that ran over the detection limit were re-processed using a 30g fire assay and a gravimetric finish.

The Qualified Person for this press release is Mr. Ron Wortel, P.Eng., who oversaw all of SBMI's work referred to herein. Mr. Wortel is also President and a director of the Company.

The Company also announces it has been advised by Mr. Jon Wiesblatt he is resigning from his position as a director of the Company to concentrate on other ventures. The Company thanks Mr. Wiesblatt for his contributions to the growth of the Company as a Capital Pool Company and through to the closing of its Qualifying Transaction.

Silver Bullet Mines Commences Trading and Provides Updates on Arizona and Idaho

Newsfile Dec 6, 2021 8:00 AM EST

 

Burlington, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - December 6, 2021) - Following the closing of its Qualifying Transaction and the listing of its common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol SBMI, Silver Bullet Mines Corp. (TSXV: SBMI) ("SBMI" or "the Company") is excited to provide its first operational update.

SBMI's flagship asset is the Black Diamond Project located in the major mining camp of Globe, Arizona. Black Diamond is a massive project, covering 4900 acres and hosting five former producing silver mines. SBMI also owns the George Washington Mine, a former silver and gold producer in Idaho on patented lands.

SBMI's goals are:

  1. Put the Buckeye Silver Mine in pilot production in Q1/22, followed by full-scale production;

  2. Finalize plans to have the McMorris Silver Mine back in production within 24 months;

  3. Carry out exploration programs elsewhere on Black Diamond to enable a decision on the order in which the remaining former producers will be put back in production;

  4. Investigate the waste rock on surface at the George Washington Mine in Idaho; and

  5. Defend the treasury.

"The team has made astonishing progress in mining-friendly Arizona," said A. John Carter, SBMI's CEO. "In a short period of time we have gone from an empty field to having a mill pad and an assay lab. Having our own lab means we can be nimble underground and not waste time waiting for third party labs to get around to processing our samples. Our goal of positive cash flow is closer every day."

Some parts for SBMI's mill have been installed onsite at the Buckeye Silver Mine after navigating through the port of Long Beach. Other parts are still in the supply chain and are beyond SBMI's control for the time being. If those parts are significantly delayed, SBMI can choose to accelerate the program at the George Washington Mine in Idaho. Once finalized, the mill will have the capacity to process 125 tonnes of ore per day.

Concerning that program in Idaho, Mr. Carter continued, "We have taken grab samples from the waste rock at surface and expect assay results shortly. If, as we anticipate, the results justify further investigation, we would expect to process a bulk sample to test historical results and to determine ore characteristics including representative grades of silver and gold."

The Company also plans to investigate Black Diamond's potential to host a copper porphyry, as referenced in the Company's January 8, 2021 Technical Report. The mill is not needed for this task. See page 7 at https://www.silverbulletmines.com/technical-documents for the technical reference to the possible copper porphyry, and see SBMI's new website for site video, photos, maps, historical reports and leadership team biographies at www.silverbulletmines.com.

Because almost all of Black Diamond consists of BLM claims or patented lands owned by SBMI, SBMI does not have expensive annual payments or advanced royalty payments to make. Relative to the large size of the land package, the annual carrying costs are quite small.

SBMI has roughly 55,000,000 shares outstanding of which approximately 29,000,000 are in escrow. Almost all of the outstanding warrants and options have a strike price equal to or greater than the price in the recent over-subscribed financing. The Company has no debt outstanding other than normal trade payables.

SBMI expects to disseminate technical information in the near future, in compliance with NI43-101. It is possible the first technical disclosure will be on the assay results from the surface rock in Idaho.

To introduce itself to individual and institutional investors as well as advisors and analysts, SBMI will be carrying out a real-time, interactive presentation at the Emerging Growth Conference this Wednesday, December 8 at 11:00 am EST. This live, interactive online event will give existing shareholders and the investment community the opportunity to interact with Mr. Peter M. Clausi, SBMI's VP, Capital Markets, in real time.

Mr. Clausi will provide a general overview of SBMI, its capital structure, its achievements in the field, and its plans for the future. The floor will then be open for questions.

Please register here to ensure attendance at the conference and to receive any updates that are released.
