Silver Dollar Resources reports AGM results, operational update
Exits AGM with a robust balance sheet and continued shareholder backing; fully funded drilling program at La Joya Silver (Cu-Au) Project to continue into mid-September
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 20, 2026) - Silver Dollar Resources Inc. (CSE: SLV) (OTCQX: SLVDF) (FSE: 4YW) ("Silver Dollar" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that all resolutions put forth at the Company's Annual General Meeting, held on August 18, 2026, were approved by shareholders, with each resolution receiving at least 99.7% of the votes cast.
The approved resolutions included the reappointment of Crowe MacKay LLP as auditors of the Company, setting the number of directors at four, and the election of Guillermo Lozano-Chavez (an independent director), Gregory Lytle (a non-independent director), Bruce MacLachlan (an independent director), and J.J. (Jeff) Smulders (a non-independent director) to Silver Dollar's Board of Directors.
"As we exit this year's AGM, with a robust balance sheet and the continued backing of our major shareholders, the goal is to turn the geological potential of our flagship La Joya Silver (Cu-Au) Project into tangible shareholder value while maintaining a lean operational footprint," said Greg Lytle, President & CEO of Silver Dollar. "Our fully funded drilling program is ongoing at La Joya, where we are testing for San Martin-type mineralization outside the area of the large, historic resource. We expect drilling to continue into mid-September and will report program results after all sample assays have been received and interpreted."

The previous operator, Silvercrest Mines, released a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) National Instrument (NI) 43-101 Technical Report for La Joya in December 2013. The PEA included a mineral resource estimate (MRE) for only the MMT and Santo Nino deposits (See Historical MRE Table and Figure 3) that was primarily based on Silvercrest's drilling between 2010 and 2012. The MRE was reported to conform to CIM definitions and standards for resource estimation at that time. However, a qualified person of Silver Dollar has not done sufficient work to classify the historical resource, and the Company is not treating it as a current mineral resource. Independent data verification and an assessment of the mineral resource estimation methods are required to validate the historical mineral resource estimate.
