Highlander Silver moves to acquire High-Grade Silver Politunche Property in Miocene Polymetallic Belt of Central Peru

01.12.2021  |  The Newswire
Vancouver, November 30, 2021 - Highlander Silver Corp. (CSE:HSLV) (CNSX:HSLV.CN) (the "Company" or "Highlander") is pleased to announce the recent signing of a Letter of Intent ("LOI") which lays out proposed terms for an option to purchase 100% of the 600 hectare Politunche Property ("the Property) located in the prolific, silver-rich polymetallic belt of central Peru and just 15 kilometres from the company´s flagship, Alta Victoria Project.

Letter of Intent Deal Terms

The company can earn 100% ownership of the property by:

  • Paying a total of US$2,000,000 cash in payments over 4 years (including a balloon payment of US$1.64M on completion of 4 year term);

  • Drilling a minimum of 2,500 metres;

  • Owner retains a 2% NSR which Highlander may buy back for US$500,000 per 1%; and

  • Upon completion of a Positive Feasibility Study the Company will pay US$1M to the vendor.

Property Location

The maps in Figure 1 below show the location of the property in relation to Alta Victoria and other important mines and deposits in the district.

Mineralization & Characteristics of the Property

Discovery potential lies in delineating high grade mineralisation within a multitude of discrete veins and breccia zones similar to mineralisation initially sampled by Highlander. Highlights of the results from this sampling return the following:

  • sample 2019004 with 879 g/t Ag, 0.89 g/t Au, 1.4% Pb, 5.4% Zn from talus block grab

  • sample 2019006 with 1,535 g/t Ag, 0.64 g/t Au, 1.53% Pb and 1.21% Zn over 0.6m

  • sample 2019008 with 511 g/t Ag, 0.11 g/t Au, 3.61% Pb, 6.53% Zn over 0.3m

This high grade silver with associated zinc, lead & gold is hosted in a large area of strong hydrothermal alteration of Miocene volcanic domes, dikes, flows and pyroclastic rocks shown in Figure 2 below. Furthermore, there is evidence of potential for bulk mineable mineralisation seen in the photos below where stockwork, vein swarms and disseminated mineralisation may be hidden under thin cover.

Previous work leading up to the completion of 11 diamond core drill holes in 2011 includes geologic mapping, with surface soil and rock sampling.

"The successful acquisition of the Politunche Property will add important discovery potential for Highlander," said President and CEO, Ron Stewart. "Not only does Politunche appear highly prospective, its close proximity to the company´s base of field operations will complement our ongoing work at Alta Victoria where we continue to discover new zones of mineralisation."

Highlander maintains an active dialogue and excellent relationship with the local communities and landowners in the vicinity of its projects. The Company recognizes the critical role community support plays in achieving its exploration goals.

Quality Control

All rock and soil samples reported in this press release were delivered to ALS Laboratories, a certified laboratory located in Lima, Peru for preparation and analysis. Rock samples were weighed, dried, crushed to 70% <2mm and riffle split while soils were weighed, dried and screened to -180 µm. A 250g subsample was pulverized to 85% <75 µm for both rock and soil sample types. All samples were assayed using a 30g nominal weight fire assay with atomic absorption finish (Au-AA25) for gold, and 48 elements by 4-acid ICP-MS (method ME-MSC61). When MS61 results were >100ppm for Ag and 10,000 for Pb, Zn and Cu assays were reported using four-acid digest method (Ag -OS62 and base metal ME-OG62). No standards or blanks were inserted by Highlander. ALS routinely inserts certified gold, silver and base metal standards, blanks and pulp duplicates, and results of all ALS QA/QC samples are reported. The standard, blank and duplicate samples used by ALS were considered sufficient QA/QC for Highlander's sample analysis.

Management Consulting Agreement

In connection with his role as President and CEO, Highlander has entered into a management consulting agreement with Ronald Stewart. As part of his compensation, Highlander proposes to issue 50,000 common shares of the Company to Mr. Stewart in the coming days. Subject to approval of the board, and based on Mr. Stewart's performance, a further 250,000 common shares may be issued on August 12, 2022, and 300,000 on August 12, 2023. The shares will be subject to a 4 month hold from the date of issuance.

The issuance of shares to Mr. Stewart constitutes a "related party transaction" under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company will rely on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements set out in subsection 5.5(a) and subsection 5.7(a) of MI 61-101 in connection with the share issuance, as the fair market value of the share issuance does not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization. Prior to the share issuance, Mr. Stewart did not own any shares of Highlander, and will own less than 1% of the common shares following issuance of the above noted shares.
