November 18, 2015 - Vancouver, Canada -- Klondike Silver Corp. (the 'Company') (TSX.V: KS) announces as a result of a review by the British Columbia Securities Commission, we are issuing the following news release to clarify our disclosure.
In its corporate presentations dated May 2015 and October 2015, and in a post titled 'Bottom Line Report, August 2014' on its website (collectively the investor materials), the Company reported 'significant zinc reserves are believed to remain', 'many easily accessible orebodies remain', and made other similar disclosures. The investor materials also reported results of an economic analysis based on delivering mill feed to the Sandon mill, including feed quantities and grades, concentrate quantities and grades, costs, revenues and profits. This disclosure is not compliant with National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101) and has been removed from the Company's website. The Company clarifies that it's Slocan mineral properties do not have current mineral resource estimates to provide the basis for a preliminary economic assessment (PEA) or other economic analysis suitable for public disclosure under NI 43-101, and does not have any Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) defined mineral reserve estimates.
Klondike Silver hereby retracts previous disclosure with the inappropriate terms; ore, ore body, production and reserves where they incorrectly implied a mineral reserve. The Bottom Line Report referred to above was not produced by the Company, it may potentially still be available online or in printed form. Investors and potential investors should not rely upon the Bottom Line Report and the other investor materials.
The company also retracts the non-compliant disclosure of the above economic analysis. Contrary to NI 43-101 this analysis relied on past production information and no current basis exists in the form of a mineral resource estimate.
The Company plans to complete an update of the Slocan project in the form of a report as defined in section 1.1 of NI 43-101. The technical report will reflect the current stage of advancement for the project. The timing of the report is estimated to be summer 2016.
The scientific and technical disclosure in this news release has been reviewed and approved by J.W. Morton P.Geo. who is an independent consultant to the Company and qualified person as defined in NI 43-101.
Klondike Silver Corp. is committed to the principles of factual, balanced and complete disclosure.

Cautionary note:
This report may contain forward looking statements. Resource estimates, unless specifically noted, are considered speculative. Any and all other resource or reserve estimates are historical in nature, and should not be relied upon. The production rate and mine-life projections have been made without support of a feasibility study, there is no certainty the proposed operations will be economically viable. By their nature, forward looking statements involve risk and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on factors that will or may occur in the future. Actual results may vary depending upon exploration activities, industry production, commodity demand and pricing, currency exchange rates, and, but not limited to, general economic factors. Cautionary Note to US investors: The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission specifically prohibits the use of certain terms, such as 'reserves' unless such figures are based upon actual production or formation tests and can be shown to be economically and legally producible under existing economic and operating conditions.
