HONEY BADGER CREATES 100% OWNED SILVER ROYALTY BUSINESS VERTICAL

 

 

 

 

 

Honey Badger Silver Inc. (TSX-V:TUF) (OTCQB:HBEIF) is pleased to announce that it has incorporated a new subsidiary called Honey Badger Silver Royalty Inc. The Company will grant HBSR a 2% net smelter return royalty on silver production from Honey Badger’s current portfolio of mineral projects. Honey Badger shareholders will own 100% of HBSR through their ownership of Honey Badger shares.

 

Honey Badger’s CEO, Dorian L. (Dusty) Nicol, commented, “We expect HBSR to surface shareholder value by highlighting the company’s inherent silver royalty holdings. Our goal is to create a compelling silver investment vehicle for what we believe will be the biggest bull silver market in history. Honey Badger continues to aggressively evaluate many silver mineral assets. Over the past few years, we have selectively acquired 7 silver-rich mineral projects in sound political jurisdictions – all in Canada at present. Our ultimate objective is to hold cash-flowing silver royalties and streams plus a substantial inventory of silver ounces in mineral deposits. This business model is innovative and unique to our knowledge.”

 

The Honey Badger fully-owned projects from which a 2% NSR will be granted to HBSR comprise:

 

Containing Historic Silver Resources:

  • Clear Lake project in the Yukon: Sediment-hosted deposit containing 5.5 million ounces of silver and 1.3 billion pounds of zinc, with potential to expand.
  • The Sunrise Lake project in the Northwest Territory: Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) deposit with a historic estimate of 12.6 million ounces of silver Indicated and 14.1 million ounces Inferred, together with significant gold and base metals. There is potential to expand resource.
  • Yava Lake project in Nunavut: VMS located near Glencore’s Hackett River Project, one of the world’s largest undeveloped silver resources. Yava Lake has a historic resource of 4.5 million ounces of silver, with significant potential to expand and to discover additional deposits within the land package.

 

Pre-Resource, High-Grade Silver Projects

  • Nanisivik Mine in Nunavut: A historical mine which produced over 20 million ounces of silver. High-grade silver targets identified within the over 100 million tonnes of massive sulphide that remains unmined on the property together with additional exploration targets within the land package.
  • Plata in the Yukon: Historic high-grade silver producer, adjacent to Snowline Gold’s Rogue discovery and with similar geology. High-grade gold and silver veins occur throughout the project and are interpreted to be the upper portions of a Rogue-type mineralized system.
  • Groundhog in the Yukon: Located near the Ketza River gold-silver camp, high-grade silver, zinc, lead, and copper mineralization occurs on the project. There has been no geophysics or drilling done on this project, which has potential to host one or multiple silver deposits.
  • Hy in the Yukon: High-grade silver, lead, zinc, and tungsten mineralization occur on this project. Little follow up work has been done to date on this project, which has potential to host one or more silver deposits.

The Company’s Clear Lake Project in the Yukon Territory has a historic resource of 5.5 Moz of silver and 1.3 billion pounds of zinc (2)(3). The Company also has a significant land holding at the Nanisivik Mine Area located in Nunavut, Canada that produced over 20 Moz of silver between 1976 and 2002 (2,3). A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the foregoing historical resources as current mineral resources and the Company is not treating the estimates as current mineral resources. The historical resource estimates are provided solely for the purpose as an indication of the volume of mineralization that could be present. Additional work, including verification drilling / sampling, will be required to verify any of the historical estimates as a current mineral resources.

 

(1) Sunrise Lake 2003 RPA historic resource: Indicated 1.522 million tonnes grading 262 grams/tonne silver, 6.0% zinc, 2.4% lead, 0.08% copper, and 0.67 grams/tonne gold and Inferred 2.555 million tonnes grading 169 grams/tonne silver, 4.4% zinc, 1.9% lead, 0.07% copper, and 0.51 grams/tonne gold.

(2) Clear Lake 2010 SRK historic Resource: Inferred 7.76 million tonnes grading 22 grams/tonne silver, 7.6% zinc, and 1.08% lead.
