Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 10, 2024) - Bayhorse Silver Inc, (TSXV: BHS) (OTCQB: BHSIF) (FSE: 7KXN) (the "Company" or "Bayhorse") reports that recent short hole diamond drilling results into untested ground at the Bayhorse underground workings have identified a new mineralized zone. This is between 1 meter to 4.5 meters (3ft to 17ft) in width and appears to be trending WSW from the high-grade Big Dog zone and from the main historic underground workings at the Bayhorse Silver Mine, Oregon, USA.
Significant assays include:
DDH BDD104
0.3 m (1 ft) of 34.28 oz/t (1066 g/t) silver and 1.85% copper.
0.6 m (2 ft) of 11.34 oz/t (352.7 g/t) silver and 1.15% copper.
0.6 m (2 ft) of 6.92 oz/t (215.2 g/t) silver and 0.334% copper.
0.6 m (2 ft) of 5.75 oz/t (178.8 g/t) silver and 0.344 copper.
DDH BDD105
0.6m (2ft) of 12.72 oz/t (396 g/t) silver and 0.876% copper.
0.6m (2ft) of 5.95 oz/t 1(85 g/t) silver and 0.2% copper.
DDH BDD103
0.6 m (2ft) of 6.27oz/t (195 g/t) silver and 0.22% copper.
Three face samples were taken from the south rib (wall) of the Big Dog bypass decline that was installed in 2021-2022 to safely access the Big Dog zone for drilling and sampling. These samples graded*:
192.35 oz/t (5,984.72 g/t) silver and 10.7% copper.
50.88 oz/t (1,582.54 g/t) silver and 4.51% copper, and
3.3 oz/t (102.64 g/t) silver and 1.72% copper.
*surface samples are considered select samples and may not represent true values.

(DDH BDD104 intersected 15 ft (4.5 m) with a weighted average of 4.1 oz/t (127.34 g/t) silver.
Drill holes DDD# 4, 5, 6, 7 and BDD101, were drilled from south to north to test whether the Big Dog mineralization extended south of the existing mined section of the Big Dog, but only encountered anomalous values of mineralization.
Anomalous gold values between 0.001 to 0.005 oz/t (0.03 g/t to 0.15 g/t) were intersected over 2 ft (0.6 m) intervals in DDH101, 102 and 105.
The Bayhorse underground diamond drill program was shortened due to the increasing exploration activity on the newly acquired ground on the Idaho side of the Bayhorse/Pegasus property.
