Several high-grade veins were identified in a corridor in the southern part
a 1 km gap between the DPB area and the expansion area
NW discovered; further drilling to expand resources is planned

Highlights of the Resource Expansion Program:

*

TXC25-123 returned grades of up to 23.47 g/t Au and 2,223 g/t Ag for
4,335 g/t AgEq over 0.31 metres within a 3.05 metre long zone
with 225 g/t Ag and 2.41 g/t Au for 442 g/t AgEq;

*

TXC24-113 returned 7.14 g/t Au and 614 g/t Ag for 1,257 g/t AgEq over 0.31
metres and 1.68 metres at 364 g/t Ag and 0.03 g/t Au for 367 g/t AgEq;

*

TXC25-124 returned 8.06 metres grading 1.23 g/t Au and 122 g/t
Ag for 233 g/t AgEq, including 0.76 metres at 779 g/t Ag and 7.85
g/t Au for 1,486 g/t AgEq;

*

Multiple high-grade vein intersections in drill holes TXC24-113,
TXC25-123 and TXC25-124 with samples of several kilograms of AgEq;

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - Wednesday, February 26, 2025) -
Blackrock Silver Corp. (TSXV: BRC) (OTCQX: BKRRF) (FSE: AHZ0) ("Blackrock"
or the "Company") announces the first results of its
exploration drilling program (the "Resource Expansion Program")
It aims at the expansion potential in a one kilometer
long vein corridor trend. This connects the vein groups
Denver-Paymaster ("DP") and Bermuda-Merten ("Bermuda") (together "DPB")
and the Northwest ("NW") expansion areas on the 100%
Company's Tonopah West project ("Tonopah West") in the counties
Nye and Esmeralda, Nevada, United States.

Results of initial samples from the resource expansion program in the
Tonopah West vein system confirms the Company’s geological model.
In the coming months, the project will be expanded to include
Initially, the resource expansion program consisted of
nine core holes with RC pre-drilling in the upper borehole section and two
core holes drilled from the surface. In total,
6,548 meters of drilling was carried out.

As the test results show, the silver and
Gold system from the DPB resource area in a northwesterly direction over the 1 km
long vein corridor. All drill holes intersect multiple mineralized
quartz veins. A further drilling program is planned, with the drill spacing
on a 450 meter long strike along the silver-gold trend at 50
to 75 meters. This trend will continue in a future
Update of the resource estimate. The NW extension zone
is also open to the northwest and downhill. A connection with the
DPB resource looks promising.

The mineralized quartz veins yielded significant gold and silver values ​​with
Gold (Au) up to 23,467 grams per tonne (g/t) Au and silver (Ag) with 2,223
g/t Ag. In addition, the thickness of the holes shows a
significant potential with vein sections of more than 8 meters in
TXC25-124. The NW expansion area could potentially add another 30 to 50%
of new resources to Tonopah West, bringing the zone into line with DPB
This enables the recording and inclusion of the
existing NW resource (1.0 million tonnes with inferred 6.4 million ounces Ag
and 63,000 ounces of Au or 12.1 million ounces of silver equivalent (AgEq))1 in a
future update of the preliminary economic assessment of
Tonopah West.

Andrew Pollard, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company,
stated: "Initial research results from our program to expand
of the resources confirm our geological model: Several sections
showed over 1 kg/t AgEq throughout the system in a number of veins
500 meters of our 1 kilometer gap. These results strengthen our
Confidence that we will add larger quantities at Tonopah West and
The drilling has a high-grade

mine plan with the 12 million ounce AgEq expansion deposit
NW, which is not yet part of our preliminary economic assessment 2024
Initial results have shown mineralized structures along a 500
Meter-long extension of this zone. This indicates the
potential to increase our existing mineral inventory by 30 to 50%
and to integrate the undeveloped extension deposit NW. Since our
As the model becomes more solid, we are intensifying the expansion drilling with
The aim is to fully integrate the 1 kilometer wide trend into our next
preliminary economic assessment on Tonopah West.
An updated mineral resource estimate is planned for Tonopah West,
for the third quarter of 2025 and another updated
Mineral resource estimate and preliminary economic assessment of
Tonopah West in the second quarter of 2026."

However, it returned values ​​below the cut-off grade (0.31 metres at 117 g/t Ag,
0.165 g/t Au for 132 g/t AgEq; 0.67 metres at 73 g/t Ag, 0.263 g/t Au for 96

deviated to the northwest, parallel to the main structure. A borehole,
TXC24-107, which was drilled from surface, was completed before reaching the
Target depth aborted.

With drill holes TXC24-113, -114 and TXC25-123 and -124, which tested several
high-grade veins, the exploration group has a
better understanding of the geometry of the structures of the extension area
NW. This will be reflected in a more precise targeting of our expanded programme for
expansion of resources.
