Further Metallurgical Testing For La Cigarra Silver Project

VANCOUVER - Northair Silver Corp. reported that a third phase of metallurgical test work is scheduled to start on its La Cigarra silver project, located in Chihuahua State Mexico.

This latest round of metallurgical test work follows the Company's successful 2014 drill program, and updated mineral resource estimate, which resulted in an increase of 17% in total ounces of silver and a 14% increase in grade from the 2013 Resource Estimate. The Company will collect samples for the test work from drill core in the San Gregorio and Las Carolinas zones, which currently comprise the mineral resource. The test work will focus on sulphide and oxide ore types and is a follow-up of a flotation-leach process developed in 2011 and 2012 for the San Gregorio Zone. Upcoming tests will also include the evaluation of zinc recovery options. In addition, the work will incorporate some variability testing and preliminary environmental characterization and will be sufficient to support a PEA level study.

The metallurgical program will be conducted by Base Metallurgical Laboratories Ltd. of Kamloops, BC. Terra Mineralogical Services of Peterborough, ON was selected to conduct further mineralogical assessment of the La Cigarra ores. The metallurgical and mineralogical work will be conducted under the supervision of
