We look forward\nto exploration results as they materialize.\"\n(https://pr.report/pavb)\nFigure 1: Location of the Haldane project\n\nAbout the Haldane Project\n\nKeno Hill produced approximately 217 million ounces of silver from 1913 to\n1989 with an average grade of 1,149 g/t silver, 5.62% lead and 3.14% zinc. The\nKeno Hill district is currently held by Hecla Mining Company who produced over\n3.0 million ounces of silver, 3.63 kilotons of lead and 2.24 kilotons of zinc\nin 2025. (2,3)\n\nThe Haldane project covers the western extension of the Keno Hill Quartzite\nformation, the host of the best developed mineralization in the Keno Hill\ndistrict (Figure 2). The project is centered on a series of mineralized veins\nwithin a structural corridor that has historically produced small-scale\nhigh-grade silver at the Middlecoff zone and Johnson vein.\n\nTo date, four Keno-style vein targets have been identified at Haldane. The\nMain Zone Fault is the most advanced target on the property with the first\nsuccessful drill testing in 2024 intersecting a wide zone of Keno style silver\nbearing veins, vein breccia and stockwork mineralization. Follow up drilling\nin 2025 extended mineralization to 100 metres of strike and 150 metres down\ndip with highlight drill hole HLD25-31 grading 818 g/t silver, 1.39 g/t gold,\n2.64% lead and 0.98% zinc over 13.15 metres from 249.9 metres down hole and\nincluded 3.2 metres at 2,014 g/t silver.(4)\n\nThe property contains significant potential for new vein discoveries with only\n37 drill holes prior to the current exploration campaign testing less than 10%\nof the mapped vein strike on the property. Silver North are currently\nconducting a two year, two rig drill program up to 14,000 metres, focused on\nexpansion of the Main zone and testing new silver targets. Approximately 2,550\nmetres of drilling in ten holes have been completed at the Main Fault\nstructure with assays pending.(5)\n\nAcquisition Terms\n\nUnder the terms of the Haldane Royalty Acquisition Agreement (the \"Agreement\")\nOrogen have agreed to the following payment schedule to the vendors of the 2%\nNSR royalty:\n1.\nC$500,000 on closing the Agreement (paid);\n2.\n30% of future royalty revenue capped at C$1.5 million (\"First Future\nPayment\"); and\n3.\n15% of future royalty revenue capped at C$1 million to be paid after the\ncompletion of the First Future Payment\n(https://pr.report/pavc)\nFigure 2: Simplified Regional Geology of the Keno Hill District from Silver\nNorth(2)\n\nQualified Person Statement\n\nAll technical disclosure in this release is a summary of previously released\ninformation, and the Company is relying on the interpretation provided by the\nrelevant company.
