IMPACT Silver Announces Third Quarter 2017 Financial and Production Results

IMPACT Silver Corp. ("IMPACT" or the "Company") announces its financial and production results for the third quarter o
--->f 2017. 

Fred Davidson, President and CEO, stated, "Earlier in the year, IMPACT was named to the 2017 TSX Venture 50.  We start
--->ed 2017 with a clean balance sheet and no debt. Currently working capital remains strong at $7.4 million.  Financial r
--->esults improved slightly between Q3-2017 and the previous quarter. IMPACT continues to expand its in-mine exploration 
--->and development to provide additional tonnage throughput at the mill. We also have in place ongoing exploration plans 
--->for high potential targets and continue to evaluate strategic transactions to grow value for our shareholders."

Financial Overview
Revenue for Q3 2017 was $4.0 million, a 12% improvement from Q2-2017. Improvement over Q2 2017 was due to slightly hig
--->her silver prices, silver recoveries and silver grades despite slightly lower production tonnes mainly due to unusuall
--->y heavy rains during the quarter which delayed trucking of mineral to the mill, slower processing due to wet mill feed
---> and electrical power interruptions.
 
Mine operating loss improved in Q3 2017 to $0.2 million compared to $0.9 million in Q2 2017.    Mine operating earning
--->s before amortization and depletion were $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to a loss
---> of $0.3 million in the previous quarter.

Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $1.0 million which included $1.3 million of foreign exchang
--->e loss and non-cash items of amortization, depletion and share based compensation.  This compares to a $0.7 million ne
--->t loss for the same period in 2016, which included $1.2 million of foreign exchange loss and non-cash items in amortiz
--->ation and depletion and share based compensation.  Excluding foreign exchange and non-cash items, adjusted net earning
--->s for the three months ended September 30, 2017 were $0.3 million compared to $0.5 million in the same period of 2016.

Loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) improved to a loss of $0.4 million for Q3 2017 com
--->pared to a loss of $0.7 million in the previous quarter.

The Company's cash position at September 30, 2017 remains strong at $6.0 million, with net working capital of $7.4 mil
--->lion (2016 - $11.1 million).

Production Overview
Production at the Guadalupe mill during the third quarter of 2017 came primarily from the San Ramon Deeps Mine (46% of
---> total mill feed), the Cuchara Mine (38% of mill feed) and the San Patricio (Chivo) Mine (16% of mill feed).  The grad
--->e at San Ramon is highly variable and provided lower grades than in the comparable quarter of 2016. The mining grades 
--->at the new San Patricio (Chivo) Mine had lower grades than the Mirasol mine that closed towards the beginning of Q3. T
--->hese factors contributed to a slightly lower grade mill feed in the third quarter of 2017 compared to 2016.

Average mill feed grade for silver was 175 grams per tonne (g/t) in the third quarter of 2017, down from 178 g/t in th
--->e same period of 2016.  

Silver production increased slightly to 229,898 ounces in the third quarter of 2017 from 228,954 ounces in comparable 
--->period of 2016 mainly due to higher tonnage throughput in 2017.

Health and Safety Awards
In the third quarter of 2017, the Company's mine rescue team competed in a safety and rescue competition for the first
---> time and placed fifth overall among teams. In 2016, IMPACT's mining team received the recognition of The Award for Ex
--->cellence in health and safety standards by the Secretary of Labour and Social Welfare in Mexico.  This recognition ack
--->nowledges the Company's effective working environment, strong relationships with its employees, and reduced workplace 
--->accidents, illnesses and absenteeism.

This award and others like it are testaments to IMPACT's dedication to an industry leading standard in the health and 
--->safety of our staff and contractors. 

Exploration

The Company is continuing exploration with the goal of putting some of the 4,500+ compiled old mine workings in the Za
--->cualpan and Capire districts on a faster track to drilling and potential production, and building mineral inventories 
--->for mining. The Company is continuing surface and underground drilling programs to build resources.  Currently, explor
--->ation work is focused on larger and higher grade targets at Alacran and Alacran North.  Surface drilling is next being
---> planned on the north extension of the San Ramon Mine and on the north extensions of the El Paso Vein located near the
---> Guadalupe plant access road.

IMPACT has control of the majority of two entire mineral districts in central Mexico:  the Royal Mines of Zacualpan Si
--->lver District and the Capire-Mamatla Mineral District adjacent to and southwest of Zacualpan.  

IMPACT has a track record of successful exploration and rapid mine development. The Company's long term vision sees po
--->tential for establishing mills throughout the two districts, each fed by multiple mines producing silver-lead-zinc as 
--->well as gold and copper. 

The Company continues to look for expansion through ongoing exploration programs and/or strategic acquisitions and tra
--->nsactions. 

A recorded conference call reviewing the financial and production results of the third quarter of 2017 will be availab
--->le on the Company website on November 21, 2017, at www.impactsilver.com/s/ConferenceCalls.asp.
