CSR Targets High-grade Cobalt and Silver at Castle, Closes Second Tranche and Increases Financing to $1.2 Million

VANCOUVER, May 26, 2017 /CNW/ - Castle Silver Resources Inc. (TSX.V: CSR, OTC: TAKRF, FRANKFURT: 4T9B) (the "Company" or "CSR") has closed the second tranche of an over-subscribed private placement and is pleased to provide an update on developments at its 100%-owned Castle Silver-Cobalt mine in Gowganda, Ontario:

Frank Basa, CSR President and CEO, commented: "Given a treasure chest of historical data, and visual analysis of the entire first level which requires just minor rehabilitation, we are very confident in our ability to target high-grade cobalt and silver mineralization in vein structures that were either overlooked or left untouched by Agnico Eagle in the 1980's. Their focus, along with previous operators going back to the early 1900's, was only on silver and at exceptionally high grades."

Castle Mine Features 11 Levels

Historical data features silver assays for hundreds of drill holes in addition to locations of drifts and certain stopes throughout the 11 levels of the Castle mine. The total footprint of the underground workings extends as much as 2,400 feet (727 meters) east-west, 1,500 feet (455 meters) north-south, and 850 feet (258 meters) to depth.

Considerable exploration potential exists outside of the mined area at the property and the Company eagerly anticipates results from a recently completed IP program designed to expand drill targets.

The mine site includes easy year-round road access, buildings, core shack, water and power, with the community of Gowganda just a few kilometers away.

CSR Closes Second Tranche, Increases Financing to $1.2 Million

CSR has closed a second tranche of $466,500 in its recently announced private placement, bringing total gross proceeds to $966,500. Due to investor demand, CSR has increased this over-subscribed financing to $1.2 million.

The Company will be issuing 2,332,500 units in the second tranche closing. Each unit comprises one common share and one share purchase warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share of the Company at an exercise price of $0.30 per share for a period of two years from closing, subject to TSX Venture Exchange ("Exchange") approval.

All securities issued in connection with the private placement are subject to a four-month and a day hold period expiring on September 27, 2017, in accordance with applicable Securities Laws.
