Wildcat signs letter agreement for Regal Resources' Sunnyside Project

VANCOUVER, April 9, 2014 /CNW/ - Wildcat Silver Corp. (TSX: WS) ("Wildcat" or "The Company") announces that it has signed a letter agreement with Regal Resources Inc. ("Regal") which sets out the terms and conditions pursuant to which Wildcat may earn up to a 70% interest in Regal's Patagonia/Sunnyside Project ("Sunnyside" or the "Project"), located near Nogales, Arizona. All dollar amounts referred to are Canadian dollars.

About Sunnyside
Sunnyside is approximately 70 kilometres south of Tucson, immediately to the west and adjoining Wildcat's Hermosa property (Please see Figure 1) in Santa Cruz County, Arizona. The Project consists of 295 unpatented claims totalling approximately 5,900 acres.

Sunnyside hosts compelling shallow and deep porphyry copper-molybdenum targets. Based on geologic mapping and core drilling, there are four main exploration targets: 1) Sunnyside Deep (copper sulfide); 2) Sunnyside Shallow (near surface copper oxide); 3) Chalcocite Enrichment Zone; and, 4) Sunnyside Skarn (sulfide). Wildcat believes that there is significant exploration potential at these targets, and that the Sunnyside Skarn may be an extension of the sulfide skarn resource identified on the Hermosa property. Recent re-assays of historic core drilling by Regal has confirmed the robust nature of the Sunnyside Skarn target returning up to 306.65 g/t silver, 1.17% copper, 4.27% lead and 10.70% zinc over 17.37 metres (as reported in the June 11, 2012 43-101 Technical Report for Sunnyside).

Transaction Details
The principal terms and conditions pursuant to which Wildcat shall have the right to earn interest in Sunnyside are as follows:

• Wildcat may earn a 60% interest (the "Initial Interest") in Sunnyside upon cash payment to Regal of an aggregate of $4 million over five years and completion of exploration work expenditures in respect of Sunnyside for an aggregate of $25 million over a period of six years following the execution of an earn-in agreement (the "Agreement").
• Following the acquisition of the Initial Interest, Wildcat may earn an additional 10% interest (for an aggregate of 70% interest) by paying Regal an additional $1.5 million in cash and completing a feasibility study on Sunnyside.
• Regal shall issue an aggregate of 15,000,000 common share purchase warrants to Wildcat on execution of the Agreement where each warrant ("Warrant") is exercisable for one common share of Regal ("Common Share") in the following increments: a) 5,000,000 Warrants exercisable at $0.20 per Common Share for a period of two years from the date of issue; b) 5,000,000 Warrants exercisable at $0.50 per Common Share for a period of four years from the date of issue; and c) 5,000,000 Warrants exercisable at $1.00 per Common Share for a period of five years from the date of issue.
• Wildcat will act as operator of the Project following execution of the Agreement.

Wildcat has an exclusive period of 30 days from the signing of the letter agreement to complete its due diligence on Sunnyside and determine if it wishes to proceed with the execution of an earn-in agreement.
