BP Silver Corp. Intersects 10.0 Meters Grading 183.62 g/t Silver and 0.59 g/t Gold (239.65 g/t Silver Equivalent), Including 2.0 Meters Grading 506.50 g/t Silver and 1.08 g/t Gold (600 g/t Silver Equivalent) at Cosuño Silver Project, Bolivia


BP Silver Corp.
(TSX-V: BPAG) (OTCQB: BPSCF) announces additional assay results from two diamond drill holes completed at the Jalsuri North Target as part of its Phase 2 diamond drilling program at the Cosuño Silver Project in Bolivia. Drilling continues to intersect significant silver mineralization in addition to broad intervals of zinc mineralization.

 

HIGHLIGHTS

  • High-grade silver-gold mineralization: Drill hole CO-0019 intersected 10.0 meters grading 183.62 g/t silver and 0.59 g/t gold (239.65 g/t silver equivalent), including 2.0 m grading 506.50 g/t silver and 1.08 g/t gold (600.04 g/t silver equivalent) starting at 3.0 m depth.
  • Additional high-grade silver-gold mineralization: Within the upper mineralized zone, a 5.0 m interval from 4.0 to 9.0 m returned 294.00 g/t silver and 0.81 g/t gold (369.68 g/t silver equivalent).
  • Broad zinc mineralization: CO-0019 also intersected a broad lower zone grading 2.49% zinc equivalent over 100.0 m.

(See Table 1 and 2 and Figure 3.)

 

Dr. Stewart D. Redwood, Director and Qualifying Person, stated: “These two holes at Jalsuri North are mineralized along their entire lengths, with zinc associated with lead, and intersect high-grade silver structures associated with gold, bismuth, copper, antimony, tin and, in some cases, zinc. The geochemical results reveal distinct metal zonation, likely related to variations in temperature within the hydrothermal system. These holes are step-outs to the northwest along strike from hole CO-0015, reported on October 20, 2026, and further demonstrate the continuity of mineralization across the Jalsuri North zone. Similar to CO-0015, both holes are hosted in basaltic andesite and exhibit veinlet, breccia, vug-fill, patchy and disseminated mineralization consistent with an intermediate-sulfidation epithermal system.”

 

 

SUMMARY

Assay results have been received for two additional drill holes, CO-0016 and CO-0019, completed at the Jalsuri North Target as part of the Company’s Phase 2 diamond drilling program (Figure 3, Table 1 and 2).

Drill holes CO-0016 and CO-0019 intersected zinc-mineralization throughout their entire lengths. Notably, CO-0019 also intersected a near-surface 10 m interval of high-grade silver and gold mineralization, in addition to other pathfinder metals. Both holes ended in mineralization, demonstrating the potential for mineralization to continue at depth and further supporting the polymetallic potential of the Jalsuri North target.

Mineralization is interpreted to represent the upper and/or distal levels of an intermediate-sulfidation epithermal system developed adjacent to the extensive Cosuño lithocap. The geological setting suggests the potential for a larger mineralized system at depth.

In detail the multi-phase, structurally controlled, mineralization occurs in several forms, including breccia-hosted, veinlets, fillings within vesicles in the lavas, disseminations, replacement mineralization, and mineralization within the lower sedimentary conglomerate matrix. The mineral assemblage consists primarily of sphalerite and pyrite, with minor chalcopyrite and galena, accompanied by quartz, calcite, barite, and white clay minerals, including smectite and/or dickite.

Tim Shearcroft, Founder and CEO, stated: “Intersecting 10 meters grading more than 183 g/t silver, including 2 meters grading over 500 g/t silver, is extremely encouraging. Equally important, both holes intersected broad zinc mineralization and ended in mineralized rock. These results reinforce our view that Jalsuri North may host a substantial polymetallic system with significant potential for further expansion.”

 

 

Jalsuri North Target

Drill hole CO-0016 intersected a broad zone of polymetallic mineralization within andesitic volcanic rocks which returned 96 m grading 1.37% zinc (1.91% zinc equivalent) from 4.0 to 100.0 m, (Table 2).

The hole also returned two narrow silver-rich intervals:

  • 3.0 m grading 110.60 g/t silver, 0.17 g/t gold, 0.76% zinc, 0.31% copper and 273 ppm bismuth (186.40 g/t silver equivalent) from 13.0 to 16.0 m.
  • 2.0 m grading 56.75 g/t silver, 5.65% zinc and 0.714% copper (243.45 g/t silver equivalent) from 52.0 to 54.0 m.

Near the bottom of the hole, the final 2.0 meters, from 98.0 to 100.0 meters, averaged 4.18% zinc and 3.44 g/t silver.

Further drilling is required to determine the continuity of the mineralization and its relationship to the broader emerging polymetallic system.

Drill hole CO-0019 intersected 10.0 m grading 183.62 g/t silver, 0.59 g/t gold and 233 ppm bismuth (239.65 g/t silver equivalent) from 3.0 to 13.0 m, including 2.0 m grading 506.50 g/t silver and 1.08 g/t gold (600.04 g/t silver equivalent) from 4.0 to 6.0 m (Table 1 and Figure 2).

Mineralization is predominately hosted within a broad andesitic volcanic sequence containing two distinct styles of mineralization (Figure 3).

 

Deeper Zinc-Lead-Silver Mineralization:

At depth, the hole intersected a broad zone of zinc-lead-silver mineralization, indicative of metal zonation within the hydrothermal system with higher-temperature silver-gold mineralization surrounded by lower-temperature zinc-rich halos.

Mineralization continues to the bottom of the hole. Further drilling is required to determine its full extent, continuity, and economic potential.

Notes to Table 1:

(1) Silver equivalent and zinc equivalent grades were calculated using 2025 average metal prices reported by the U.S. Geological Survey: US$38.00 per ounce for silver (Ag), US$1.30 per pound for zinc (Zn), US$3,300 per ounce for gold (Au), US$4.80 per pound for copper (Cu), US$20.00 per pound for bismuth (Bi), US$1.06 per pound for lead (Pb), and US$25.00 per pound for antimony (Sb).

(2) Recoveries of 90% have been assumed for all metals for illustrative exploration purposes. The Cosuño Project is at an early exploration stage, and no metallurgical test work has been completed to establish metal recoveries. Metal-equivalent calculations are used solely as an exploration tool to assist in evaluating and reporting drill intercepts. They do not represent an estimate of recoverable metal content; net smelter returns or economic value.

(3) Reported intervals represent core lengths. True widths have not yet been determined.

(4) Silver intersections were calculated using a cutoff grade of 10 g/t silver, with sub-intervals reported at 30, 60 and 90 g/t silver. Reported intervals may include internal dilution.

(5) Intersections calculated at cutoff grades of 0.10% zinc with sub-intervals at 0.50% and 1.00% zinc. The intervals may include some internal dilution.

QA/QC

The work program was designed and supervised by Gonzalo Lemuz, P.Geo, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, who was responsible for all aspects of the work, including the Quality Assurance and Quality Control program. On-site personnel at the Project rigorously collect and track samples which are then security sealed and shipped to ALS laboratory in Oruro for sample preparation. The core samples were prepared by ALS at their laboratory in Oruro, Bolivia and the sample pulps were shipped to their laboratory in El Callao, Peru for analysis. ALS is accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and ISO9001:2015. ALS is independent of BP Silver. Silver and multi-elements were analysed by aqua regia digestion and ICP-MS finish. Gold was analysed by fire assay and AA finish. BPAG inserted certified standard reference materials, blanks and duplicates to monitor QAQC. All diamond drill holes were drilled in HQ-diameter core. The average core recovery was 95% for CO-0012 and 97% for CO-0013.
