(TSXV: VML) (OTCQB: VLMGF) (\"Viscount Mining\") is pleased to announce it has commenced the second phase of a three phase drill program at its Silver Cliff property in Colorado.The 2021 phase 2 exploration campaign is designed to expand the NI 43-101 Kate Silver Resource (KSR) done by Dr. Gilles Arseneau in 2018. This will be done by further defining the limits of the Kate East zone, a zone that has the potential of raising the grade of the deposit. Viscount is also expanding the drilling to increase the tonnage that can be included in upcoming resource reports. Also, additional drilling will be conducted in the Passiflora target to continue to explore the potential to add to the total resource of the Silver Cliff projectFig 1.

If this continues, it will potentially improve the grade of the resource as defined by Dr. Gilles Arseneau in his 2018 NI 43-101 report.Three drill holes are planned to be drilled to the east of DDH-20-10. Two are to the south-east of DDH-20-10. Some historic drill results showed promise in this direction. The third is located about 485 m to the east, and additional historic drill holes show promise in this area. If the drill hole indicates additional mineralization.
