Silver Viper Receives Additional Infill Drilling Results from the Program at The El Rubi Zone, La Virginia Project in Sonora, Mexico

Canada NewsWire VANCOUVER, BC , July 23, 2026 /CNW/ -- Silver Viper Minerals Corp.  (TSXV: VIPR ) (OTCQX: VIPRF) (the " Company " or " Silver Viper ") is pleased to announce additional drill results from El Rubi on the La Virginia Gold-Silver Project ("La Virginia" or the "Project"), Sonora, Mexico. Since the March 23, 2026, press release highlighting drill results at La Virginia, an additional 9 infill drill holes at El Rubi have been completed, totalling 3,239.10 m. This brings the total drilling since starting the program in October 2025 up to 8,885.5 m in 27 drill holes.

Drill hole numbers for the full program range from LV25-331 to LV25-342 and LV26-343 to LV26-357. Results for holes LV25-331 through LV26-348 were presented in the March 23, 2026, release. This release presents results from holes LV26-349 through LV26-357, which were drilled as infill and expansion holes within the El Rubi Zone.

The new drilling tightens drill spacing within El Rubi to ranges of 20 m and 25 m between drill holes, allowing for future reclassification of resources to higher confidence classification categories. Drill highlights from additional assays received include: From El Rubi: Drill hole LV26-355 returned 5.85 m of 1.83 g/t Au and 92.3 g/t Ag (2.99 g/t AuEq) from 137.50 m  downhole including 2.0 m of 4.80 g/t Au and 233.0 g/t Ag   (7.72 g/t AuEq)  starting at 140.15 m downhole. These intervals are roughly evenly spaced 25 m from holes LV19-215 and LV20-218 and provide support for the higher-grade zone previously defined on this section.

Drill hole LV26-356 returned 15.8 m of 2.20 g/t Au and 355.2 g/t Ag (6.91 g/t AuEq) from 241.5 m  downhole and includes 9.4 m of 3.43 g/t Au and 156.5 g/t Ag (5.38 g/t AuEq) from 246.25 m . These intervals repeat high-grade intervals intercepted earlier in drill hole LV21-289 and come wit
