(TSXV: AGA) (\"Silver47\" or the \"Company), has identified anomalous concentrations of several elements listed by both the United States and Canada as 'critical metals.' Following the 2024 drill program, a full review of historic and recent drill assays was undertaken with a focus on critical mineral potential. In addition to the high-grade zinc-silver-gold-lead-copper defined in the inferred resource, elevated amounts antimony (Sb), gallium (Ga), niobium (Nb), and vanadium (V) were found to occur within the Dry Creek (DC) and West Tundra Flats (WTF) resource zones. HighlightsThe highest grades of antimony, gallium and vanadium occurs at the Dry Creek zone with up to 6,230 parts per million (\"ppm\") (0.623%) antimony and 116.4 ppm gallium and 1110 ppm vanadiumThe most significant interval drilled at the Dry Creek zone was from hole DC18-77, which returned 6.8 metres of 2,928.4 ppm antimony, 81.7 ppm gallium, 938.7 g/t silver, 1.5 g/t gold, 3.5% zinc, 1.7% lead, 0.4% copper including;4.3 metres of 4,432.2 ppm antimony, 96.7 ppm gallium, 1434.8 g/t silver, 2.2 g/t gold 4.8% zinc, 2.3% lead and 0.5% copperCEO Gary R. Thompson, stated: \"The identification of gallium and antimony, among other critical minerals, within the resource zones has the potential to add significant value to our Red Mountain project. While we are focused on growing the silver-gold and base metals resource at Red Mountain, further assessment of these critical minerals, which are used in a myriad of high-tech applications, is planned to better understand the potential contribution that they may have on the project.\"High antimony and gallium assay values consistently occur within previously reported intervals of high-grade silver-zinc-gold-lead-copper massive sulfides and are distributed throughout the resources. Niobium and vanadium highs occur primarily in the western portion of Dry Creek. Figure 1.
