Vancouver, British Columbia, December 11, 2009 — Silverado Gold Mines Ltd (OTCBB: SLGLF) (Frankfurt: SLGL) (www.silverado.com) (the “Company” or “Silverado”) continues to find significant gold mineralization within wall rocks enveloping high grade gold/antimony veins at Nolan Creek.
The map overleaf depicted below and prepared by Silverado geologist Karl Sharp shows the 2.5 mile-long section or side view of Solomon’s Shear Zone on Silverado’s Nolan Gold/Antimony property in the Wiseman area of northern Alaska. The yellow areas shown below the surface of Solomon’s Shear Zone disclose areas from which historic, pre-1965 placer mines and more recently, Silverado’s test-mining activities, produced gold nuggets and as such are evidence that the 2.5-mile portion shown contains gold throughout its length. Geochemistry, geophysics, prospecting, trenching and drilling have confirmed this finding.

Of particular interest are the significant gold assays that are emerging from our current program of drill core re-examination and sampling. Gold can be seen in the core with the naked eye within the rock forming an ‘envelope zone’ within the hanging and footwall portions between the identified ‘A-Zone’, ‘B-Zone’, ‘C-Zone, ‘West Zone’ high grade vein-faults identified on Workman’s Bench and Pringle Bench, which were drill tested during 2007-2009. The mineralized veinlet zones were noted during previous exploration work. For example, during the driving of the Workman’s Bench underground workings in 2008, nearly 80 thin, quartz–sulfide, sub-parallel veinlets were identified in a width of over 120 feet (see January 1, 2009 NI 43-101 Pre-Feasibility Study for Nolan Creek, Amended June 1, 2009). The opportunity exists for identifying a bulk tonnage type, gold/antimony deposit in this expanded mineralized quartz-carbonate veinlet zone, a portion of which is shown in grey and red in the inset at the bottom right portion of the map.
As an example of these previously unreported findings, the following results were obtained from the examination of data of four drill holes that tested Workman’s Bench in 2008:
Because previous drill programs targeted high grade stibnite-quartz-gold vein-faults, some intervals within ‘envelope’ zones were not submitted for assay work. Silverado has initiated a program to obtain the additional assay information. Further information will be released as more assays are obtained from the 2007-2009 core intervals submitted to ALS Chemex this winter.
Updated reserves and resources resulting from information gathered from 21 new drill holes completed in the 2009 drill season on Workman’s and Pringle Bench will be calculated. Two holes were lost in fault zones, but the remaining 19 holes intersected the main target showing significant gold and antimony values.
