Klondike Silver Corp. Samples 17.59% Pb, 1.12% Zn, 687g/tonne Ag
and Completes 10 Trenches in Jackson Basin
=======================================================================
.. BOULDER FOUND IN TRENCH 3, WEST OF JACKSON MINE WORKINGS, ASSAYED
72.42% PB, 2.41%ZN, 2895G/TONNE SILVER
.. MINERALIZED QUARTZ VEINS DISCOVERED IN FIVE TRENCHES
VANCOUVER, BC --- Klondike Silver Corp. (TSX-V: KS) (the "Company") is
pleased to report that it has received assays for a number of samples
taken from a number of recently completed trenches in the Jackson
Basin. The Jackson Basin Area, which includes the historic Jackson
Mine, was discovered in 1892. Mining continued until 1955, followed by
intermittent operations until 1975.
"We are encouraged by the high assay values found in a number of
trenches, especially from trenches 8 and 10 which are believed to be
the eastern extension of the Jackson lode structure," comments Klondike
Silver President, Richard Hughes. "Results received from this program
and other recently completed trenches will be used to guide our next
phase of exploration."

Trenching Summary:
.. Trench 3 uncovered a 20cm diameter boulder of mainly galena which
contained 72.42% Pb, 2.41%Zn, 2895g/tonne Ag. (JB09-09). Trench 3 is
located west of the Jackson mine workings.
.. Trench 5 had a fault zone with samples assaying up to 17.59% Pb,
1.12% Zn, 687g/tonne Ag. (JB09-T05-R03) A thin quartz vein offset by
the fault contained 8.13% Pb, 3.91% Zn, 377g/tonne Ag. (JB09-T05-R04).
.. Trench 10, 8m along strike from the mineralized zone in Trench 8,
showed variable mineralization. Samples from the zone yielded values up
to 5.01% Pb, 2.40% Zn and 124g/tonne Ag. The zone is believed to be the
eastern extension of the Jackson lode structure which mined 5847 tonnes
at average grades of 14.65%Pb, 10.92%Zn and 531g/tonne Ag.
.. Trench 8 revealed a shear zone approximately 2.6m wide with
extensional quartz veins hosting lead and zinc mineralization. Chip
samples across the zone assayed up to 6.85% Pb, 6.42% Zn and 204
g/tonne Ag (see table below):
