Cision Canada08-07-2025
VANCOUVER, BC, July 8, 2025 /CNW/ - GR Silver Mining Ltd. (" GR Silver Mining" or the " Company") (TSXV: GRSL) (OTCQB: GRSLF) (FRANKFURT: GPE) – is pleased to report initial results of Phase I of the new underground sampling program (the "Program") at the Plomosas Mine, Sinaloa, Mexico. The Program was designed around the following objectives:
To model the recently mapped high-grade silver zones in the interior of the historic Plomosas Mine, post completion of the March 2023 NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate ("MRE");
To collect metallurgical test work samples essential to define key parameters for implementation of a Bulk Sampling Test Mining Program (" BSTM") at the Plomosas Mine (Table 1); and
To enhance the existing database of underground samples for improved reconciliation between the MRE and areas identified for a BSTM.
Sampling Highlights
Initial highlights of the Phase I Plomosas Mine underground sampling program include:
Chip Mine Face Sample – Level 883 - 2,423 g/t Ag Eq*, consisting of 675 g/t Ag, 46.9% Pb, 4.5% Zn and 0.54 g/t Au (Polymetallic Hydrothermal Breccia – Massive Sulphide)
Channel Sample – Level 833 – 0.8 m @ 2,019 g/t Ag Eq, consisting of 137 g/t Ag, 5.74 g/t Au, 16.7% Pb, and 18.2% Zn (Polymetallic Hydrothermal Breccia – Massive Sulphide)
Channel Sample – Level 950 – 0.6 m @ 3,993 g/t Ag Eq, 310 g/t Ag, 15.20 g/t Au, 26.2% Pb and 10.2% Zn (Polymetallic Hydrothermal Breccia – Massive Sulphide)
GR Silver Mining's President and CEO, Marcio Fonseca, commented "The success of our new geological model at the Plomosas Mine, completed during the last 6 months, combined with detailed underground sampling, will be fundamental for the future development of engineering parameters to assess implementation of a Bulk Sampling Test Mining program in the underground mine. The current site has initial infrastructure and key permits in place, which can assist in any future mine and processing plant developments at the historic Plomosas Mine."
The Program will consist of two phases over the next four months, whereby Phase I assesses metallurgical data collected to support engineering studies as part of the BSTM, and Phase II will complete a much larger dataset to help refine basic mining engineering and planning. Both phases of the Program will support a decision to potentially implement a BSTM at the Plomosas Mine before year-end.
The Program leverages existing permits to operate at the Plomosas Mine, providing full access to the 7.4 km of underground development. Access to multiple areas for sampling, as shown in Figure 1, has enabled a better identification of unmined regions with high-grade, continuous silver, gold, and base metal mineralization at various levels of the underground mine. Assay results from 21 samples collected at the chosen sites (Table 1) have returned high-grade results, with values of up to 3,993 g/t Ag Eq. Multiple high-grade results indicate potential areas to advance Phase II, targeting the collection of additional metallurgical data and progress towards the implementation of a BSTM in the Plomosas Mine.

Numbers may be rounded. Results are uncut and undiluted. True width not estimated as the Company does not have sufficient data from the new mineralized zones to determine the true widths of the intervals with any confidence.
* Ag Eq calculations using US$20.00/oz Ag, US$1,600/oz Au, US$0.90/lb Pb, US$1.10/lb Zn and US$3.00/lb Cu, with metallurgical recoveries of Ag – 74%, Au – 86%, Pb – 69%, Zn – 75% and Cu – 80%. Ag Eq = ((Ag grade x Ag Price x Ag recovery) + (Au grade x Au price x Au recovery) + (Pb grade x Pb price x Pb recovery) + (Zn grade x Zn price x Zn recovery) + (Cu grade x Cu price x Cu recovery)/(Ag price x Ag recovery)
The areas selected for Phases I and II of the Program consist of material where mineralization is continuous, with evidence of silver, gold and base metal mineralization at concentrations attractive for a potential BSTM in early 2026. The BSTM will also require the construction of a demonstration processing plant on site, with details to be defined after the completion of Phase II and associated engineering studies.
The Company plans to continue investigating opportunities at the Plomosas Mine, based on recent success, targeting the higher-grade silver zones in the MRE, which may support the implementation of a BSTM.
Note: Purple shapes are potential stopes blocks for BSTM. Pale grey represents existing underground developments of varying sizes, ramps and historical stopes.
About the Plomosas Project
The Plomosas Project, including the recent high-grade silver discovery in the San Marcial SE Area, is progressing in 2025 as an emerging high-grade silver district located in southern Sinaloa, Mexico. The Plomosas Project, covering 43,187 ha, benefits from mine infrastructure, road access and existing permits associated with past-producing historical mining sites. The district contains intermediate to low-sulfidation epithermal silver and gold mineralization, hosted in hydrothermal breccias and veins. Recent success in exploration and drilling has delineated wide, high-grade, shallow hydrothermal breccias in the San Marcial Area, including the SE Area discovery, where step-out drilling is progressing in 2025, aiming for continuous resource growth. At the historical Plomosas Mine, where a subsidiary of Grupo Mexico operated the underground mine from 1985 to 2000, exploratory and metallurgical programs are being conducted to support future decisions regarding the implementation of a BSTM.
