(“Klondike Silver” or the “Company”) (TSXV:KS) reports that it has engaged Tetra Tech, Inc., a consulting and engineering firm to complete the following work as the company prepares for its next phases of exploration at the Company’s 100% owned Silvana Mine property located in the Slocan Mining Camp in South Eastern British Columbia:

Tom Kennedy, Klondike Silver CEO stated “Tetra Tech has been engaged to complete the required work as outlined above in this news release. Completing the required work is the next step towards realizing the Company’s ultimate objective to reactivate mining operations at its Silvana mine. Such work is required by the Chief Gold Commissioner for British Columbia (in cancelling the Free Miner Certificate). When the engineering reports are complete and reviewed by the appropriate government bodies, the Company will make an application for reinstatement of its Free Miner Certificate to allow continuation of its exploration activities.  Until then, the Company’s focus and objective will continue to be the resolution of the orders of the Mines Inspection Branch to address the current concerns about tailings facilities.  The Company is of the view that the timelines for resolution of the matters are realistic and expects to complete the necessary work within those timelines.”

Silver, Zinc and Lead ore from Klondike Silver’s Silvana mine was last processed in 2012-2013. The concentrate was shipped from Klondike’s mill to the Teck smelter in Trail B.C.

The scientific and technical disclosure in this news release has been reviewed and approved by David Makepeace, P.Eng., Senior Geologist – Environmental Engineer at Geospectrum Engineering, who is an independent consultant to the Company and Qualified Person as defined in NI 43-101.
