SILVER RANGE PARTNER RUSH GOLD ADVANCES SKYLIGHT
Silver Range Resources Ltd. partner Rush Gold Corp. has been listed for trading on the Canadian Securities
Exchange and intends to begin exploration on the Skylight property (see Rush Gold
news release dated June 20, 2025).
The Skylight property is centred on a low-sulphidation hydrothermal cell in Royston Hills, Nye
county, Nevada. At Skylight, the hydrothermal system is fully preserved with silica caps forming
resistant low hills in the centre of the property. These caps consist of quartz-chalcedony breccia
and rare laminated silica suggesting that Skylight is vent-proximal and likely centred on an outflow
zone. Low-sulphidation epithermal deposit models predict precious metal deposition beneath
outflow zones where thermodynamic conditions favour fluid boiling and dumping of precious
metals from solution.
Three-dimensional induced polarization surveys conducted by Silver Range in 2017 defined a
series of linear chargeability anomalies beneath the silica caps which are congruent with other
second-order structures exposed in this section of the Walker Lane. Above these linear features,
soil geochemical responses are elevated in elements associated with precious-metal-bearing low-sulphidation epithermal systems including mercury, gold, silver and arsenic. Silver Range believes
these geophysical and geochemical anomalies indicate the location of feeder structures beneath
the silica caps. These are primary drill targets on the property.
With respect to the high level of preservation, the Skylight target closely resembles the 16-million-ounce Silicon and Merlin gold discoveries near Beatty, southeast of Skylight along the Walker
Lane. The centre of the Skylight hydrothermal system has not been drill-tested, but 2007 drilling
by Newmont and Rimfire Metals on the periphery of the system returned several gold intersections
with best results of 10.67 metres of 0.49 gram per tonne gold. This strongly suggests that the hydrothermal system
at Skylight is gold bearing in contrast to many similar fully preserved but barren low-sulphidation
targets along the Walker Lane.
Rush Gold may obtain a 100-per-cent interest in the Skylight property by completing 3,000 metres of drilling;
by paying $310,000 to Silver Range; and by issuing 680,000 shares to Silver Range over a three-year term. Silver Range will retain a 3-per-cent net smelter return and is entitled to receive milestone
payments following definition of resources on the property.

president and chief executive officer of Silver Range, a qualified person for the purposes of
National Instrument 43-101.
