DOLLY VARDEN SILVER ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF $15 MILLION BOUGHT-DEAL PUBLIC OFFERING, WITH PARTICIPATION BY ERIC SPROTT

Dolly Varden Silver Corp. has closed its previously announced bought deal public offering for gross proceeds to the company of $14,999,985. Pursuant to the offering, Dolly Varden sold 14,285,700 shares of the Company on a charitable basis (each, a "Charity FT Share") that will qualify as "flow-through shares" within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) at a price of $1.05 per Charity FT Share.

The Offering was completed by a syndicate of underwriters co-led by Research Capital Corporation, as co-lead underwriter and sole bookrunner, and Haywood Securities Inc., as co-lead underwriter, and including Raymond James Ltd. (collectively, the "Underwriters"). Mr. Eric Sprott, through 2176423 Ontario Ltd., participated in the Offering.

"We are grateful for the continued support from key shareholders including Eric Sprott. Having already established one of the richest undeveloped high-grade silver and gold projects in Western Canada, these funds will enable the Company to continue to follow up on the newly discovered high-grade gold at Homestake and the wide and high-grade silver deposits at Wolf and the past producing Torbrit mine," commented Shawn Khunkhun, CEO.

The gross proceeds from the sale of Charity FT Shares will be used for further exploration, mineral resource expansion and drilling in the combined Kitsault Valley project, located in northwestern British Columbia, Canada, as well as for working capital as permitted, as Canadian Exploration Expenses as defined in paragraph (f) of the definition of "Canadian exploration expense" in subsection 66.1(6) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and "flow through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) that will qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures" and "BC flow-through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 4.721(1) of the Income Tax Act (British Columbia), which will be incurred on or before December 31, 2025 and renounced with an effective date no later than December 31, 2024 to the initial purchasers of Charity FT Shares.

The Charity FT Shares were issued by way of a prospectus supplement dated March 6, 2024 (the "Supplement") to the Company's short form base shelf prospectus dated April 25, 2023 (the "Shelf Prospectus"), filed with the securities regulatory authorities in all provinces of Canada, except Quebec. Copies of the Supplement and Shelf Prospectus are available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Dolly Varden Silver Corporation is a mineral exploration company focused on advancing its 100% held Kitsault Valley Project (which combines the Dolly Varden Project and the Homestake Ridge Project) located in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia, Canada, 25kms by road to tide water. The 163 sq. km. project hosts the high-grade silver and gold resources of Dolly Varden and Homestake Ridge along with the past producing Dolly Varden and Torbrit silver mines. It is considered to be prospective for hosting further precious metal deposits, being on the same structural and stratigraphic belts that host numerous other, high-grade deposits, such as Eskay Creek and Brucejack. The Kitsault Valley Project also contains the Big Bulk property which is prospective for porphyry and skarn style copper and gold mineralization, similar to other such deposits in the region (Red Mountain, KSM, Red Chris).
