VANCOUVER, March 29, 2016 - Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSX-V: KTN) ("Kootenay Silver") and Northair Silver Corp. (TSX-V: INM) ("Northair").

Kootenay Silver is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement with Coeur Capital, Inc. ("Coeur") to acquire (the "Acquisition") its 2.5% net smelter return royalty ("NSR") on future production from Northair Silver Corp.'s ("Northair") La Cigarra project, located in Chihuahua, Mexico. The Acquisition is subject to the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Kootenay Silver President and CEO James McDonald stated "We are very pleased to have the opportunity to consolidate the ownership of the royalty at this time. Given our belief in La Cigarra's silver resources and the potential for additional discoveries the opportunity to repurchase the royalty is beneficial to the project."


Terms of the Agreement:

Under the terms of the agreement, Kootenay will pay to Coeur US$250,000 in cash upon signing followed by a second cash payment of US$250,000 to be made on April 19, 2016 (the "Closing Date").  In addition, Kootenay Silver will issue to Coeur on the Closing Date such number of common shares (the "Shares") of Kootenay Silver as is equal to US$2,000,000 at a share price of Cdn$0.275 per share which will result in the issuance of 9,629,091 common shares of Kootenay Silver.  The Shares issued in connection with the Acquisition will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus one day from the closing of the Acquisition under applicable Canadian securities laws. Upon issuance of the Shares, Coeur will hold an aggregate of 9,629,091 common shares of Kootenay Silver. The completion of the Acquisition is not subject to the completion of Kootenay Silver's proposed acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Northair to be completed by way of a statutory plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") as announced on January 13, 2016 (see press releases dated January 13, 2016 and February 8, 2016).


Support Agreement:

In addition, Coeur has entered into an agreement with Kootenay Silver to vote all of the shares that it holds in Northair in favour of and in support of the Arrangement between Kootenay Silver and Northair. This represents approximately 13.55 % of the outstanding Northair shares.

Northair President and CEO Andrea Zaradic stated "We are very pleased that Kootenay Silver and Coeur were able to agree to the terms of the Acquisition and that Coeur supports  our proposed amalgamation with Kootenay Silver."
