Dolly Varden Silver Closes C$1.5 Million Loan, Begins Drill Program and Announces Board Changes

01.10.2015  |  FSCwire

Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) - Dolly Varden Silver Corp. (TSX.V: DV | U.S.: DOLLF) (the “Company” or “Dolly Varden”) has signed the definitive documentation for the closing of the previously announced senior secured loan (the “Loan”) from Hecla Canada Ltd. and Robert L. Gipson, two significant shareholders of the Company (each a “Lender”, and together the “Lenders”).  The Loan is in the principle amount of C$1,500,000, the net proceeds of which, after deduction of certain expenses in connection with the transaction, will be used to complete drilling on regional targets within the Dolly Varden project, located in northwestern British Columbia and thereafter for working capital purposes. An additional C$500,000 may be made available to the Company at the Lenders’ discretion. The Loan will bear interest at a rate of 5% per annum and will be repayable after one year, or repaid earlier with no penalty. In connection with the Loan, Dolly Varden will issue 1,250,000 warrants to each Lender, for a total of 2,500,000 warrants, each of which will entitle the holder to acquire one common share of Dolly Varden at a price of C$0.30, for a period of three years from the date of issuance.

Approximately C$1,200,000 of the Loan proceeds will be used immediately in completing 2,200 meters of core drilling to explore for high-grade volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) and epithermal styles of mineralization.  Both mineralization styles are present in and around the four existing deposits on which a maiden mineral resource estimate was recently announced.  Three of these deposits were historically mined and the four combined deposits are estimated to host indicated mineral resources containing 31.8 million ounces of silver, and inferred mineral resources containing an additional 10.8 million ounces of silver, both at grades in excess of 320 grams of silver per tonne (“g/t silver”) at a 150 g/t silver cut-off grade.  For additional details regarding the maiden resource estimate, please see the Dolly Varden news release dated August 27, 2015.  Similar rock sequences, alteration and geochemical anomalies extend from the historic deposits regionally on the Dolly Varden project.  One priority for this drill program will be the Kitsol area, over a kilometer away from historic mining, where drilling in 2014 returned an intercept of 26 meters grading 712 g/t silver starting at a drilled depth of 148 meters.

Concurrent with the Loan closing, Allan Marter, Allen Ambrose and Ian He have resigned from Dolly Varden’s board of directors (the “Board”).  Mr. Marter has been on the Board since March 2012. He served as Co-Chair from October 2014 until March 2015, at which time he was appointed Chairman of the Board.  He was also the Chair of several special committees during his tenure.  Mr. Ambrose was a member of the Company’s founding Board and has served as an independent director since March 2011. Mr. He has served as an independent director since July 2013.  The remaining members of the Board (Tom Wharton, Don Birak and Rosie Moore) would like to thank Messrs. Marter, Ambrose and He for their time and dedication to the Company and wish them the best in their future endeavors.
