Fire Creek Mine:
A total of 57 underground drill holes totaling 23,137 ft (7,052 m) were drilled during the first quarter of 2016. These holes were targeting the extensions of the main producing veins at Fire Creek, primarily the Karen, Joyce and Hui Wu veins. A significant portion of these drill results have come from recent waste development that has allowed the establishment of new drill stations. (TABLE 1)

Karen:
The drill program extended the Karen vein by approximately 450 ft (137 m) along strike and an additional 125 ft (38 m) down dip from the resource. Klondex believes that the drilling suggests that the Karen vein is robust and continues to the North.

Joyce:
The drill program extended the Joyce vein by approximately 350 ft (107 m) along strike and an additional 75 ft (23 m) down dip from the mineral resource.

Hui Wu:
The drill program extended the Hui Wu vein by approximately 430 ft (131 m) along strike and an additional 125 ft (38 m) down dip from the mineral resource. The drill results have clarified where the intersection of the Hui Wu and Joyce veins occurs and continues to support this intersection to be a high grade ore shoot plunging steeply to the North.

Brian Morris, Vice President Exploration stated, "These drill results support our belief that Fire Creek is a much larger system than we know today. Of the known veins, these three primary veins in the system continue to extend to the Northwest and down dip exhibiting similar widths and grades as the existing mineral resource. These results are all new and have not yet been included in the existing mineral resource estimate."

Assays were performed by ALS Chemex of Reno, Nevada, as directed under the supervision of Klondex staff. This organization is an ISO 17025 accredited independent laboratory.
