Highlander Silver Corp. provided an update on exploration activities including plans to drill its Alta Victoria Project. Regarding advances on the Politunche Project, the Company has purchased the entire data package in the possession of Solitario Zinc Corp.

relating to work performed up to the end of 2011 on and around the 600 hectares making up the property. Alta Victoria: The company is moving forward with plans to drill test priority targets generated from work carried out over the past 18 months, focusing on the Pachas and Santa Teresita target areas. Permit adjustments have been submitted and are being reviewed by government authorities.

The Company anticipates approvals to be in place whereby ground preparation and mobilization of personnel and equipment will commence the second half of August. Highlander has awarded the drill contract to Energold Peru based in Lima. Furthermore, the Company has negotiated and executed a one year extension of the surface access agreement with the local community starting from June 1, 2022 and continues to enjoy community support for ongoing exploration of the property.

Politunche: The Company has purchased all data and supporting information from Solitario Zinc Corp. generated from their work in the area which culminated in an 11 hole, 2015.6 metre diamond drilling program in 2011. The complete data package includes the following: Complete drill logs & core photos (Highlander has managed to salvage much of the drill core which has been reboxed and logged by company geologists, however significant portions of mineralized intervals are missing.

As a result, these logs and photos will be important for the Company to incorporate into the ongoing work on the project); 1062 multielement geochemical analysis from drill core samples. Surface mapping and sampling information: 1,924 combined rock chip and channel samples with multielement geochemical analysis; 712 soil samples with multielement geochemical analysis; and Surface geological mapping. Sampling by Highlander this year on the Politunche property includes 95 surface rock samples where 13 of the 95 samples assayed between 540 g/t AgEq and 1627 g/t AgEq across a 2 km, northsouth trending area.

Previous drilling by Solitario also resulted in significant drill intercepts returning 1.3m @ 641 g/t AgEq, 4m @ 339 g/t AgEq and 54m @ 59 g/t AgEq. AgEq calculated based on: $1650/oz Au, $20.60/oz Ag, $0.90/lb Pb, $1.15/lb Zn.
