SLS Solaris Resources Inc

Solaris Resources Inc. (TSX: SLS; NYSE: SLSR) (“Solaris” or the “Company”) is pleased to report assay results from its ongoing 2024 drilling program of 60,000m targeting open extensions of mineralization while upgrading mineral resources and converting waste at its Warintza Project (“Warintza” or “the Project”) in southeastern Ecuador. Highlights are listed below with detailed results in Figure 1 and Tables 1-2.

HighlightsDrill results reported here build on the 2024 Mineral Resource Estimate¹ (“MRE”), with this release including intercepts of high-grade mineralization partially outside of the MRE in the northwest and northeast sectors. Holes in this release also improve upon modelled grades in sparsely drilled areas of the northwest, north and northeast sectors.

Northwest, North and Northeast Sectors:

• SLS-102 (drilled northwest): 93m of 1.01% CuEq² within 156m of 0.74% CuEq² from surface
• SLS-103 (drilled north): 87m of 1.23% CuEq² within 528m of 0.59% CuEq² from surface
• SLS-104 (drilled southeast): 84m of 1.00% CuEq² within 485m of 0.77% CuEq² from surface
• SLSE-54 (drilled southwest): 258m of 0.52% CuEq² within 399m of 0.41% CuEq² from surface

Holes SLS-103 and SLSE-54 added new high-grade mineralization at surface partially outside of the MRE in the northwest and northeast sectors, respectively, while all four holes improved upon the modelled grade in their vicinity.

SLS-102 is located in the northwest sector where mineralization has been extended to the contact with a tabular granodiorite that shapes the northwestern pit wall. Step-out exploration drilling testing the potential for mineralization within a large area of undrilled soil anomaly on the far side of this body has been completed with assays expected in the coming weeks.

On Track to Exceed 2024 Drilling Plan:

Warintza continues to see high drilling productivity from significant infrastructure investment at site and is on track to exceed the 60,000m of drilling planned this year, with over 53,000m drilled to the end of Q3/24. Drilling includes holes focused on open extensions and infill of the MRE, as well as condemnation and geotechnical drilling.

Notes to Table 1: True widths are interpreted to be very close to drilled widths due to the bulk-porphyry style mineralized zones at Warintza.

2. Copper-equivalence grade calculation for reporting assumes metal prices of US$4.00/lb Cu, US$20.00/lb Mo, and US$1,850/oz Au, and recoveries of 90% Cu, 85% Mo, and 70% Au based on preliminary metallurgical testwork. CuEq formula: CuEq (%) = Cu (%) + 5.604 × Mo (%) + 0.623 × Au (g/t).

Technical Information and Quality Control & Quality AssuranceSample assay results have been independently monitored through a quality control/quality assurance (“QA/QC”) program that includes the insertion of blind certified reference materials (standards), blanks and field duplicate samples. Logging and sampling are completed at a secure Company facility located on site. Drill core is cut in half on site and samples are securely transported to ALS Labs in Quito. Sample pulps are sent to ALS Labs in Lima, Peru and Vancouver, Canada for analysis. Total copper and molybdenum contents are determined by four-acid digestion with AAS finish. Gold is determined by fire assay of a 30-gram charge. In addition, selected pulp check samples are sent to Bureau Veritas lab in Lima, Peru. Both ALS Labs and Bureau Veritas lab are independent of Solaris. Solaris is not aware of any drilling, sampling, recovery or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data referred to herein. Heliborne magnetic, LIDAR and other layers of data quality for Warintza district exploration were validated by a qualified external professional using data validation procedures under high industry standards and the Company therefore did not require such data to be further verified by a “Qualified Person” as defined in National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. The remaining scientific and technical information, including the drillhole data, has been verified by Jorge Fierro, M.Sc., DIC, PG, using data validation and quality assurance procedures under high industry standards. The verification activities included a search for factual errors, completeness of the lithological and assay data, and suitability of the primary data. As part of the database verification activities, the assay information and certificates obtained directly from the analytical laboratory have been examined as well.
