VANCOUVER, British Columbia - January 10, 2022 (Investorideas.com Newswire) AURCANA SILVER CORPORATION ("Aurcana" or the "Company") (TSXV: AUN, OTCQX: AUNFF) is pleased to provide an update on current operations at its wholly owned Revenue-Virginius Mine located in Ouray, Colorado, USA.

Operations are continuing to focus on the
completion of the #1 Alimak raise hoist / elevator system which will enable
efficient movement of men and materials between the 2000 level and the four
levels being developed above 2000. Operations also continue stoping on the 1800
level of the Virginius Vein, and making ongoing improvements to the process
plant.
It is anticipated that the mill will resume
operations in mid-January and will run as stope ore is available. Significant
improvement in concentrate quality was realized in the most recent mill run in
December and is expected to continue once the mill is back in operation.
Completion of the #1 Alimak
raise hoist / elevator project remains targeted for May 2022. The #1 Raise
Hoist is the key to safe, efficient, and sustainable travel for men and
materials to the upper levels of the Virginius mine. This hoisting system will have
an immediate positive impact on mining productivities and subsequent mine
development & production and mill production. The improved access to the
upper levels of the Virginius and other veins is expected to also enhance
future exploration and development activities at the mine.
Mining operations have
continued to focus on the optimization of 1800 level stope mining. Stope ore
has been stockpiled underground in anticipation of the resumption of milling.
Currently, the mine has two stopes available on the 1800 level to supply the
mill with high grade silver ore with a third stope partially completed. Assays taken from on vein development openings
continue to demonstrate strong mineralization in support of the geologic model.
The figure below depicts a graphical representation of the grades encountered
while drifting north on the Virginius Vein on the 1800 level.

"We are
very pleased with the grades we are encountering, and the fact these grades are
significantly higher (83%) when compared to the geologic model; this gives us
great confidence in our ore body," said Kevin Drover, President and CEO of
Aurcana.
