Tombstone South Property

The Tombstone South Property is located approximately 5.6 kilometers ("km") southwest of the town of Tombstone, Arizona, USA which occupies the center of the historic Tombstone Mining District (over 30M ounces of silver produced). The Property is easily accessible via two hours of driving on paved highway from Tucson, Arizona and is approximately 113 km southeast of Tucson, Arizona. The Property consists of 39 unpatented federal mining claims and six Arizona State Prospecting Permits comprising a total of 1,335 hectares.

The main Tombstone District is well-known for high-grade silver / lead / zinc replacement bodies, fissures and veins that have yielded a historic production (1880's to 1930's) of over 30M ounces of silver.

Two exploration targets exist at Tombstone South: 1) Tombstone type polymetallic (silver / lead / zinc) carbonate replacement deposit in Cretaceous Bisbee group; and 2) Deeper polymetallic (silver / lead / zinc) type carbonate replacement deposit and skarns at the Cretaceous - Paleozoic contact. This stratigraphic horizon hosts the Taylor silver/lead/zinc deposit in southern Arizona, which was bought for US$1.3B in 2018 by South 32. The Cretaceous-Paleozoic contact zone on the Property, including its proximity to low grade porphyry copper deposits and high-grade silver deposits, presents a very favourable setting for Taylor deposit style mineralization.

Intrepid is planning a 3000-metre drill program at the Tombstone South Property, which is expected to take place in H1 2022. Drill permits have been granted and US$940,000 has been budgeted for the Company's exploration program on the Property. The objective of the initial drill program is to confirm historic drilling to National Instrument 43-101 standards and to expand on the mineralized footprint.

Assuming successful exploration results from the work plan described above, Intrepid intends to conduct further work programs and studies. This work is expected to include additional drilling, sampling and analysis and geological modelling.
