About Dolly Varden Silver
Dolly Varden Silver Corporation is focused on the exploration and development of the Dolly Varden silver project located in northwestern British Columbia. The Dolly Varden project is a past-producing silver mine with historic resources and is situated in the same geologic setting as the past-producing Eskay Creek deposit. The Company has two strategies for creating value at Dolly Varden: to confirm and expand the existing historic silver resources with the goal to re-start historic mines; and to explore a major untested Eskay Creek-type gold and silver target at Dolly Varden. The Company is based in Vancouver, British Columbia and its shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol DV. Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
