The four holes shown in the table
above totalled 4,459 feet of Diamond drilling in the main Hardshell deposit,
with the fifth exploration hole drilled on trend to the northwest. The results from the new holes intercepted similar geology and mineralization over comparable intervals to that
previously drilled within the Main Manto zone. These intercepts were characterized by
high Ag, Pb, Zn, and Mn grades, subject to natural grade variations
characteristic of these types of deposits.
The results of this validation drilling confirmed the general viability
of the historic drill results.
Wildcat plans to follow up with
further drilling programs in the near term in order to provide additional infill
holes within the deposit, to better delineate the margins, and to further
examine other deeper manto zones.

ABOUT
WILDCAT SILVER CORPORATION – Wildcat is developing the Hardshell
silver project in Santa Cruz County, Arizona, USA. The Hardshell property is held by
Arizona Minerals Inc., of which Wildcat is an 80 percent owner. The Company initiated a 7,500 foot
(2,288 meter) drill program in July 2007 after publishing a positive preliminary
assessment (“PA”) by Pincock Allen & Holt earlier in the year. The PA cited a substantial inferred
resource of nearly 1.2 billion pounds of manganese along with 53.5 million
ounces of silver (10.3 million tons @ 6.26% manganese and 5.18 ounces per ton
silver). Wildcat trades on the CNQ
