American Marconi Wireless News - Orogen Royalties Acquires a Royalty on the Haldane Silver Project

Haldane Royalty Highlights^1,2,3,4

• Haldane is a high-grade silver project owned by Silver North Resources Ltd. ("Silver North") (TSXV:SNAG)

• The Royalty is uncapped with no buy-downs and covers 86 square kilometres on the extension of the Keno Hill silver district and namesake mine, operated by Hecla Mining Company (Figures 1,2)

• Four Keno-style vein targets confirmed to date at Haldane with significant potential for new blind discoveries

• Haldane has been progressively explored and drilled since 2019 including drill holes HLD25-31 grading 818 grams per tonne ("g/t") silver, 1.39 g/t gold, 2.54% lead, and 0.98% zinc over 13.15 metres and HLD21-24 intersecting 1,351 g/t silver, 2.43% lead, and 2.91% zinc over 5.2 metres

• Drilling at Haldane is under way with up to 14,000 metres planned for 2026 and 2027

"Keno Hill is one of the highest-grade silver districts in the world with over 35 historical mine sites producing approximately 217 million ounces of silver. The Haldane royalty acquisition was based on the strong geological potential of the project backed by solid operatorship at Silver North, and we are excited to be part of this emerging silver discovery," said Paddy Nicol, CEO of Orogen. "Silver North is a well financed and technically driven company with sufficient funding to explore Haldane over 2026 and 2027. We look forward to exploration results as they materialize."

About the Haldane Project

Keno Hill produced approximately 217 million ounces of silver from 1913 to 1989 with an average grade of 1,149 g/t silver, 5.62% lead and 3.14% zinc. The Keno Hill district is currently held by Hecla Mining Company who produced over 3.0 million ounces of silver, 3.63 kilotons of lead and 2.24 kilotons of zinc in 2025. ^2,3

The Haldane project covers the western extension of the Keno Hill Quartzite formation, the host of the best developed mineralization in the Keno Hill district (Figure 2). The project is centered on a series of mineralized veins within a structural corridor that has historically produced small-scale high-grade silver at the Middlecoff zone and Johnson vein.

To date, four Keno-style vein targets have been identified at Haldane. The Main Zone Fault is the most advanced target on the property with the first successful drill testing in 2024 intersecting a wide zone of Keno style silver bearing veins, vein breccia and stockwork mineralization. Follow up drilling in 2025 extended mineralization to 100 metres of strike and 150 metres down dip with highlight drill hole HLD25-31 grading 818 g/t silver, 1.39 g/t gold, 2.64% lead and 0.98% zinc over 13.15 metres from 249.9 metres down hole and included 3.2 metres at 2,014 g/t silver.⁴

The property contains significant potential for new vein discoveries with only 37 drill holes prior to the current exploration campaign testing less than 10% of the mapped vein strike on the property. Silver North are currently conducting a two year, two rig drill program up to 14,000 metres, focused on expansion of the Main zone and testing new silver targets.Approximately 2,550 metres of drilling in ten holes have been completed at the Main Fault structure with assays pending.⁵
