Message: Thompson's Pup Gold Crystal Nuggets

The photos of the 'Gold Crystal Nuggets' that I posted in Agora's photo album are from the front cover and inside pages of the companies '93' annnual report.

These gold crystal nuggets were discovered in the Thompon's Pup and Mary's Bench area.

Below are some excerpts that I took from several different Silverado reports that shows further evidence to support the theory for potential gold lode sources in these areas.

------------------------------------------


"The radiocarbon age dates from placer deposit imply that there has not been much time between erosion of the hardrock gold source to creation of the placer"...."Hence the lode source creating the placers may be more-or-less intact. Secondly, the Mary's East deposit is a colluvial deposit with very coarse gold, which implies that the lode source is very proximal to this area."

SEC Filing, July 15, 2008

"Silverado Gold Mines is most encouraged with its discoveries made this summer in the Fortress area. The two different striking gold-bearing vein systems that occur in the Fortress area, along with defined structural trends overlain by gold. Antimony and arsenic geochemical anomalies, makes The Fortress area an exciting lode gold exploration target.This is in addition to the Nolan Creek lode gold targets."

------------------------------------------

In June and July 2008, the Company conducted a VLF-EM ground geophysical survey over Fortress and Saddle Zones on its Nolan property to identify structures such as shear zones, faults, and veins that occur within the bedrock.

The Fortress and Saddle Zones disclosed additional strong conductors (geological structures) to those located in 2007. These geological structures exist at and around the northeast end of Solomon's Shear Zone and are at the headwaters of Thompson Pup Creek where Silverado extracted many fresh (sharp-edged) gold crystals as part of its previous operations.

Silverado Commences Pre-Feasibility Study and Announces 2008 Geophysical Results at Nolan Creek


Silverado further announces that it has received the results of geophysical surveys, using very low frequency electromagnetic (VLF-EM) techniques, carried out on the Nolan Creek Property in 2008. The Fortress and Saddle Zones disclosed additional strong conductors (geological structures) to those located in 2007. These geological structures exist at and around the northeast end of Solomon's Shear Zone and are at the headwaters of Thompson Pup Creek where Silverado extracted many fresh (sharp-edged) gold crystals as part of its previous operations. These structures are interpreted to possibly represent mineralized zones as: (i) they relate to gold and antimony geochemical soil anomalies which overlie some of these geological structures; and (ii) samples taken from quartz carbonate veins within these structures have assayed as high as 0.24 oz gold per ton on the Fortress Zone and 28.09% antimony per ton on the Saddle Zone.
