Silver Range Resources Ltd. Expands & Options Gold Point Project

VANCOUVER, July 29, 2020 - Silver Range Resources Ltd. (TSXV:SNG) ("Silver Range") announces that it has consolidated the historic Gold Point district in southwestern Nevada and optioned the project to GGL Resources Corp.

The Gold Point District

Gold Point is a high-grade gold and silver mining district, about 26 miles south of Goldfield and 43 miles northwest of Beatty. The district was discovered in 1868 and became known as Hornsilver following the discovery of bonanza grade chlorargyrite in 1908. As mining progressed to depth, gold predominated and the district was renamed Gold Point in the 1930's. Underground mining of higher-grade portions of the veins in the district occurred intermittently between 1882 and 1962. The last operation ceased with the closure of their mill at Silver Peak. Total historic production to date in the district has been estimated at approximately 74,000 oz gold equivalent, silver being included in earlier production records.

Gold occurs in mesothermal orogenic or intrusion related quartz-limonite-hematite veins. The veins occur in a west-northwest striking structural corridor extending at least 4 km from Mount Dunfee to west of the town of Gold Point. The veins are subparallel to the structural trend, dip moderately to steeply northeast and generally rake east in the plane of the controlling structures. The most significant mining occurred on the Great Western, Welcome Stranger (Townsite) and Orleans veins. These were high grading operations, mining material averaging about 29 g/t Au at a 10 g/t Au cutoff. The higher-grade portions of the veins ranged in width from around 1.5 m to 7 m with stopes up to 13 m on the Great Western and Orleans veins. Stope maps indicate abundant lower grade mineralization was left behind in the ribs and backs. The gold mineralization persists to depth with material averaging 10.7 g/t Au collected in 35 samples from the 900' through 1020' levels of the Orleans veins following mining. There has been no significant modern exploration or drilling in the core of the Gold Point district since mining ceased due to fragmented mineral tenure.

Consolidation

Silver Range has forged an alliance with Nevada Rand LLC ("Nevada Rand") to consolidate the major past producing mines and prospects in the Gold Point district. Nevada Rand is a family-owned, underground mining contracting firm, well experienced in narrow vein high grading operations. Since the 1990's, they have acquired historic data and consolidated claim holdings covering the Great Western and Orleans veins and most of the Townsite Vein. Silver Range's East Gold Point project is southeast of Nevada Rand's claims and covers the eastern extension of the structural corridor hosting the gold bearing veins at Gold Point. The Lucky Boy shaft on the East Gold Point project was sunk where float containing visible gold was found and the Hornsilver America shaft at the southeastern end of the East Gold Point property hosts gold bearing veins which returned up to 13.8 g/t Au in recent sampling. Silver Range and Nevada Rand staked and jointly own buffer claims between their respective land positions. They have been aggressively marketing the Gold Point project, seeking an opportunity to apply modern exploration technology to finding new resources in this historic high-grade gold district.
