Silver Tiger Announces Commencement of Underground Drilling on High-Grade Vein, Sulfide and Shale Zones and Expects To Deliver a PEA for the Underground in H1-2025

HALIFAX, December 3, 2024 - Silver Tiger Metals Inc. (TSXV:SLVR) and (OTCQX:SLVTF) ("Silver Tiger" or the "Corporation") is announcing the commencement of its underground drilling campaign targeting the Veins, the Sulfide Zone and the Shale Zone on its 100% owned, silver-gold El Tigre Project (the "Project" or "El Tigre") located in Sonora, Mexico.

Glenn Jessome, President & CEO stated "After the release of our robust PFS on the near-surface, low-capex open pit portion of the El Tigre Project, our next goal will be to complete a PEA on the underground component of the project in the first half of 2025. Our current underground drilling program is targeting the Veins, the Sulfide Zone and the Shale Zone from our 400-meter-long rehabilitated haulage-way. The new drill holes will provide new assay, geotechnical, metallurgical and geological information for the Mineral Resource blocks near the completed haulage-way close to first development."

Underground Dilling
The El Tigre Project underground drilling campaign is targeting the Veins, the Sulfide Zone and the Shale Zone located as close as 40 meters to the pre-existing haulage way. These high-grade zones, especially the historically-mined Veins with results up to 86.5 kilograms/tonne silver equivalent, form a crucial component of the UG PEA (see Press Release dated November 9, 2021).

The drill rig and geological team are mobilized and drilling has begun in a 5,000 meter array. Role Drilling of Hermosillo has been contracted for drilling HQ, oriented drill holes ranging in depth from 100-300 meters, offering a significant cost savings over drilling from surface. Assays are expected before EOY 2024.

Exploration Potential
Exploration potential at the El Tigre Project is substantial with prospective areas for exploration both down dip and along strike with the disclosed Exploration Target establishing 10 to 12 million tonnes at 225 to 265 g/t AgEq for 73 to 100 Moz AgEq.

About Silver Tiger and the El Tigre Historic Mine District
Silver Tiger Metals Inc. is a Canadian company whose management has more than 25 years' experience discovering, financing and building large epithermal silver projects in Mexico. Silver Tiger's 100% owned 28,414 hectare Historic El Tigre Mining District is located in Sonora, Mexico. Principled environmental, social and governance practices are core priorities at Silver Tiger.

The El Tigre historic mine district is located in Sonora, Mexico and lies at the northern end of the Sierra Madre silver and gold belt which hosts many epithermal silver and gold deposits, including Dolores, Santa Elena and Las Chispas at the northern end. In 1896, gold was first discovered on the property in the Gold Hill area and mining started with the Brown Shaft in 1903. The focus soon changed to mining high-grade silver veins in the area with production coming from 3 parallel veins the El Tigre Vein, the Seitz Kelley Vein and the Sooy Vein. Underground mining on the middle El Tigre Vein extended 1,450 metres along strike and was mined on 14 levels to a depth of approximately 450 metres. The Seitz Kelley Vein was mined along strike for 1 kilometre to a depth of approximately 200 metres. The Sooy Vein was only mined along strike for 250 metres to a depth of approximately 150 metres. Mining abruptly stopped on all 3 of these veins when the price of silver collapsed to less than 20¢ per ounce with the onset of the Great Depression. By the time the mine closed in 1930, it is reported to have produced a total of 353,000 ounces of gold and 67.4 million ounces of silver from 1.87 million tons (Craig, 2012). The average grade mined during this period was over 2 kilograms silver equivalent per ton.
