Silver Tiger has entered into an Engineering Procurement and Construction Management Contract with Kappes, Cassidy & Associates and Kappes, Cassiday del Norte S de RL de CV to assist in the construction of the mine and process plant at El Tigre.  The Company has also now hired its own experienced mine construction executive team to work with KCA and KCN.  Commissioning and first pour are targeted for December, 2027.  The Board of Directors of the Company have approved the construction decision for El Tigre.

Significant progress has been made to date including:

• Basic engineering for the Mine has been prepared by KCA and is 90% complete
• Engineering for the heap leach and waste dump for the Mine has been completed by WSP
• Land clearing for the Mine construction area has commenced, including flora and fauna rescue
• The personnel camp for the Mine and the construction offices have been designed and are currently in a bid process
• Engineering for improvements to the 46 km road from Colonia Morelos to El Tigre, which was built by the Corporation in 2023 and 2024, is complete and the contract to carry out the road improvements is currently in a bid process

Glenn Jessome, President and CEO stated “Our team has poured tremendous effort into general engineering and site preparation over recent months, positioning us perfectly for the execution phase of construction. Signing the EPCM agreements with industry leaders KCA and KCN now accelerates construction and puts us firmly on track for commissioning and first pour in Q4-2027, a major de-risked milestone that unlocks significant shareholder value in this surging silver-gold environment.”

Mr. Jessome continued, “We’re deeply grateful to our dedicated employees, supportive community partners, and committed shareholders who have fueled this journey to bring the historic El Tigre District back into production.”

“Looking ahead, our primary focus remains delivering the heap leach mine on schedule, while we steadily advance the high-grade underground PEA toward a future construction decision. At the same time, our exploration team is energized and ready to resume aggressive drilling in the next 30 days, targeting those exciting high-grade silver and gold veins north of El Tigre that continue to demonstrate the district’s exceptional expansion potential.” Mr. Jessome further stated.

Drilling at El Tigre

Silver Tiger is advancing key technical work at its flagship El Tigre Silver-Gold Project in Sonora, Mexico. The Company is nearing completion of its ongoing metallurgical and geotechnical drilling program in the Stockwork Zone, with this program expected to wrap up within the next 30 days.

Upon completion, the Company will immediately transition to exploration drilling targeting the high-potential vein systems north of the main El Tigre area, near the historic North Tigre Mine. This priority zone aligns directly with the El Tigre North Mine Design outlined in Section 24 of the Company’s recently filed Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA dated January 20, 2026).  The PEA also highlighted significant exploration upside beyond the defined underground and Stockwork resources, including the prospective areas 700 meters to the north.

Strong Financial Position and Robust Economics Fuel Project Advancement on Multiple Fronts

Bolstering its strong financial position, Silver Tiger has over US$86 million (or ~C$120 million) cash. The Company is also nearing completion of a debt financing package, with term sheets advanced and negotiations narrowed to select providers to provide flexible, non-dilutive capital options to support combined surface and underground development at El Tigre.

The next phase of drilling represents a strategic step to unlock additional high-grade vein potential, building on the robust economics demonstrated in the Company’s underground PEA and PFS for the Stockwork Zone. These efforts, combined with the Company’s solid treasury and financing progress, underscore Silver Tiger’s commitment to expanding the resource base, accelerating project advancement, and delivering substantial long-term value for shareholders as it progresses toward development and production at El Tigre.
