Mann Silver Mine - 41 Hectares

---

The Mann Silver Mine is a high-grade, past-producing silver property located approximately 8 km southwest of Nord Precious Metals’ Castle Mine and ~80 km southwest of Kirkland Lake, within a prolific historic silver–cobalt mining camp. Historical production is estimated at 300,000–400,000 ounces of silver, with mining activity last reported in the mid-1980s. Select ore shipments were documented to contain gold values, highlighting additional exploration potential.

The property is strategically positioned amid non-core claims held by Geiger Energy (formerly Baseload Energy), Battery Mineral Resources, and Transition Metals, creating compelling consolidation or JV potential in a tightening district.

Exceptionally high silver grades have been intersected historically:

1983 Drilling:

• 506 oz/t Ag over 9 ft (15,736 g/t Ag over 2.74 m)
   
• 495 oz/t Ag over 7 ft (15,396 g/t Ag over 2.13 m)
   

2012 Drilling (D-Zone Confirmation):

• MN11-01: 457 g/t Ag over 6.0 m and 157 g/t Ag over 5.0 m
   
• MN11-03: 398 g/t Ag over 12.85 m
   
• Cobalt: 1.12% Co over 1.4 m
   

These results confirm both grade continuity and the presence of silver–cobalt mineralization, consistent with district-scale deposits in the camp.

• Unrecovered Stockpile: A 1985 technical report documents a 300-ton surface stockpile estimated to contain approximately 9,000 oz of silver. While its precise location remains unconfirmed, both referenced shafts (Shafts 1 & 5) are situated on the property.
   
• New Cobalt Showing: 2025 prospecting identified a previously undocumented cobalt occurrence, reinforcing the polymetallic nature of the system.
   
• Unmapped Infrastructure: Discovery of a deep, undocumented shaft suggests historical workings may be more extensive than recorded in existing literature.
   
• Near-Term Work Potential: Targeted prospecting, geophysics, and shallow drilling offer low-cost pathways to rapidly advance the project and validate historic data.
