Silver Standard Provides First Quarter 2017 Corporate Exploration Update
VANCOUVER, May 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ - Silver Standard Resources Inc. (NASDAQ: SSRI) (TSX: SSO) ("Silver Standard") provides an update on its exploration activities at its Marigold mine in Nevada, U.S. and Seabee Gold Operation in Saskatchewan, Canada, including selected drillhole results from the first quarter of 2017 and, previously unreleased results, from the fourth quarter of 2016.
Highlights:
- Highlighted drill results at the Marigold mine include:
- At the Mackay pit, drillhole MRA6434 intersected 1.09 g/t gold over 106.7 meters;
- At Valmy, drillhole MRA6368 intersected 0.57 g/t gold over 45.7 meters; and
- At Battle Cry, drillhole MRA6384 intersected 0.51 g/t gold over 91.4 meters.
- Highlighted drill results at the Seabee Gold Operation include:
- At Santoy 8A, drillhole SUG-17-902 intersected 21.89 g/t gold over 3.0 meters of true width;
- At Santoy Gap, drillhole SUG-17-015 intersected uncut grade of 1,004.74 g/t gold over 1.6 meters true width, including an intersected interval of 3,887.8 g/t gold over 0.4 meters true width; and
- At Santoy, on a new target Gap HW, drillhole JOY-16-749 intersected 8.20 g/t gold over 9.9 meters of true width.
Paul Benson, President and CEO said, "Our exploration programs at Marigold and Seabee continue to deliver positive results that demonstrate resource growth potential. We were pleased with the significant increase in Mineral Reserves at both operations at the end of 2016 and are confident that our exploration activities this year, supported by strong in-house expertise and expenditures of $5 million at each mine, will once again have a positive impact on our year-end Mineral Reserves. Brownfields exploration is a key aspect of our strategy to extend the life of our operations and create long term shareholder value."
Marigold mine, U.S.
Exploration activities during the first quarter of 2017 focused on the conversion of Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves in areas proximal to the 2016 Mineral Reserves. During the quarter we completed 10,255 meters of reverse circulation drilling in 44 drillholes on four targets in close proximity to the existing pits. The most notable results include drillhole MRA6434 located in the center of the Mackay pit, which intersected 1.09 g/t gold over 106.7 meters from 43 meters below surface, as shown in Figures 1 and 2. Further drilling will be conducted in these four target areas during the remainder of the year.
In the fourth quarter of 2016, we continued drilling on targets at Valmy and Battle Cry with the objective of increasing Mineral Resources. Results received in the first quarter of 2017 from this drill program have increased the mineralized volume laterally and at depth compared to our Mineral Resource model at both Valmy and Battle Cry.
At Valmy, the mineralized structural trend continues approximately 400 meters beyond the south-east corner of the historic mining. The best results include drillhole MRA6368, which intersected 0.57 g/t gold over 45.7 meters from 194 meters below surface, followed by drillhole MR6379, located 160 meters away, that intersected 0.5 g/t gold over 85.3 meters, as shown in Figure 3. Such results demonstrate the potential to increase and convert Mineral Resources at Valmy.
The Battle Cry area is located 400 meters south of the Basalt pit and represents a new area that contributed to 2016 Indicated Mineral Resources. The most notable result was from drillhole MRA6384, which intersected 0.51 g/t gold over 91.4 meters from 69 meters below surface. This drillhole is outside of our 2016 Mineral Resource model and demonstrates the potential to increase Mineral Resources for conversion to Mineral Reserves in this area.
The positive drill results received to date from this Marigold drill program warrant further drilling, which is currently underway. Table 1 lists selected drill results from the first quarter of 2017 and the fourth quarter of 2016, while Table 2 provides the collar coordinates and drillhole lengths.
Seabee Gold Operation, Canada
In the first quarter of 2017, we completed 16,267 meters of underground drilling and 11,394 meters of surface drilling in 42 and 24 drillholes, respectively, with the goals to discover, increase and convert Mineral Resources.
Our underground drill program for the first quarter of 2017 focused on three targets, including Santoy Gap, Santoy 8A vein and the new Santoy Gap Hanging Wall ("Gap HW"), with positive results at all three areas.
Drilling at Santoy Gap aims to increase or upgrade Inferred Mineral Resources, with the most notable result being drillhole SUG-17-015, which intersected an uncut grade of 1004.74 g/t gold over 1.6 meters true width, including 3,887.8 g/t gold over 0.4 meters true width. This drillhole is located in an area outside current Mineral Resources but is within 25 meters of existing mineralization. Six drillholes in this area have an average grade of 11.8 g/t gold over a true width of 2.3 meters.
At Santoy 8, drilling was focused on upgrading existing Mineral Resources at the Santoy 8A vein, with the most notable result from drillhole SUG-17-902, which intersected 21.89 g/t gold over 3.0 meters on the lower zone of Inferred Mineral Resources. Also on the Santoy 8A vein, we received results from drillhole JOY-16-751, which assayed 9.11 g/t gold over 9.5 meters. This drillhole is located between two areas of Inferred Mineral Resources and has the potential to re-establish continuity between these two zones.
At Gap HW, surface drilling designed to confirm the new target returned an assay of 8.20 g/t gold over 9.9 meters in hole JOY-16-749. Gap HW is mineralization that is associated with a dyke-like mass of granodiorite located almost 200 meters in the hangingwall of the Gap shear zone. If Mineral Resources are confirmed here, they would offer increased operational flexibility.
Further drilling at all three targets is underway to determine the continuity of the identified mineralization. The drill results from our first quarter underground program are shown on the longitudinal section in Figure 4. Table 3 lists highlighted drill results at the Seabee Gold Operation for the fourth quarter of 2016 and first quarter of 2017.
Surface exploration drilling in the first quarter focused on three areas including Porky Main, Carr and Herb, with positive results identified at the former two areas. At Porky Main, three drillholes have been completed to explore the down dip region up to 350 meters below the existing Mineral Resources. Results are still pending, but drillhole PKY-17-049 intersected quartz veining and arsenopyrite with visible gold. Drilling at the Carr target has defined a linear mineralized structure with alteration and mineralization similar to Santoy Gap. Thus far, nine holes have been completed with analytical results received for drillhole CAR-17-001, which intersected 3.09 g/t gold over 1.15 meters. Due to these encouraging results, additional exploration drilling has been planned for the first half of 2017 at both areas to define additional Inferred Mineral Resources.
At the Fisher project, where we hold an option, planning is underway for exploration activities in the second half of 2017. We have compiled available data and prioritized field targets, which will be used to select drill targets. Materials and equipment for the exploration camp, field activities and drilling at the Fisher project were delivered via ice roads during the first quarter of 2017.
Next Steps
At the Marigold mine, 2017 exploration objectives are to replace depleted Mineral Reserves through conversion of existing Mineral Resources and to discover new Mineral Resources. Conversion targets exist at the East Basalt, Battle Cry, Crossfire, and Hollow Point areas and within the Mackay pit.
At the Seabee Gold Operation, our underground 2017 exploration plan is for the completion of up to 60,000 meters of drilling to upgrade existing Mineral Resources and to discover additional Inferred Mineral Resources at Santoy Gap, Santoy 8 and the Seabee mine. At the Seabee mine, we have allocated approximately 30% of underground drilling for testing of targets to maximize Mineral Resource potential at the mine as we develop our longer term strategy for this historically productive area. Our surface drill programs at the Seabee Gold Operation are expected to complete approximately 28,500 meters on up to nine district targets.

Notes: Width in meters represents downhole intersected length, which may or may not be a true thickness of the mineralization. Drillholes presented in this table have thickness greater than six meters at 0.3 g/t gold. If drillholes are not listed, they do not have significant gold values. "Width" may not equal the difference between "To" and "From" due to rounding. |

Sampling and Analytical Procedures
All drill samples in respect of the Marigold mine drilling program were sent for processing and analysis to the offices of American Assay Laboratories, Inc. ("AAL") in Sparks, Nevada which is an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory independent from Silver Standard. Fire assay was completed on a 30-gram sample (AAL method code FA-PB30-ICP) with an Inductively Coupled Plasma ("ICP") finish after a two acid digestion. Samples with assay results greater than 10 g/t gold were fire assayed on a 30-gram sample (AAL method code Grav Au30) with a gravimetric finish. We employ a rigorous Quality Assurance/Quality Control ("QA/QC") program, which includes real-time assay quality monitoring through the regular insertion of blanks, duplicates, and certified reference material, as well as reviewing laboratory-provided QA/QC data.
All drill samples in respect of the Seabee Gold Operation drilling program were assayed by our onsite non-accredited assay laboratory, which is not independent from Silver Standard. Duplicate check assays were conducted at site as well as at TSL Laboratories Inc. in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, which is independent from Silver Standard. Results of the spot checks were consistent with those reported. Sampling interval was established by minimum or maximum sampling lengths and geological and/or structural criteria. Two hundred gram samples were pulverized until greater than 80 percent passes through 150 mesh screen. Thirty-gram pulp samples were then analyzed for gold by fire assay with gravimetric finish (0.01 grams per tonne detection limit).

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors
This news release includes Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources classification terms that comply with reporting standards in Canada and the Mineral Reserves and the Mineral Resources estimates are made in accordance with NI 43-101. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. These standards differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC set out in SEC Industry Guide 7. Consequently, Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources information included in this news release is not comparable to similar information that would generally be disclosed by domestic U.S. reporting companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the SEC. Under SEC standards, mineralization may not be classified as a "reserve" unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. In addition, the SEC's disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning "Measured Mineral Resources," "Indicated Mineral Resources" or "Inferred Mineral Resources" or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute "reserves" by U.S. standards in documents filed with the SEC. U.S. investors should understand that "Inferred Mineral Resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. Moreover, the requirements of NI 43-101 for identification of "reserves" are also not the same as those of the SEC, and reserves reported by us in compliance with NI 43-101 may not qualify as "reserves" under SEC standards. Accordingly, information concerning mineral deposits set forth herein may not be comparable with information made public by companies that report in accordance with U.S. standards.
