Exhibit 99.1
Silver Elephant Appoints Peter Lightfoot as Technical Advisor for
its Minago Nickel Project in the Thompson Nickel Belt
Vancouver, British Columbia, July 19, 2021 – Silver Elephant
Mining Corp. (“Silver Elephant” or “the
Company”) (TSX:ELEF, OTCQX:SILEF, Frankfurt:1P2N) is
pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Peter C. Lightfoot as a
technical advisor for its Minago nickel project in the Thompson
nickel belt in Canada.
Dr.
Peter C. Lightfoot, P.Geo. is an Independent Consultant to the
global minerals industry and is the founder/owner of Lightfoot
Geoscience Inc., a consulting company providing services to
companies exploring for magmatic nickel ore deposits. During a
20-year career as a geologist with Inco and Vale he was responsible
for nickel exploration at Voisey's Bay, Sudbury and Carajas. Peter
was also involved in project generation, evaluation and technical
support in Canada, Greenland, Scandinavia, Finland, China, India,
Australia, Brazil, Angola, South Africa and the United
States.
In
2016, Peter published the first comprehensive textbook on the
Ni-Cu-precious metal ore deposits of the Sudbury Igneous Complex.
Also in 2016, he compiled and edited a special volume on gold
deposits of China, published in Ore Geology Reviews. In 2017, Dr.
Lightfoot was appointed as the Hutchinson Visiting Industry
Professor at the University of Western Ontario, where he is now an
Adjunct Professor. Peter received his B.A. in Earth Sciences from
Oxford in 1980, his M.Sc. degree from the University of Toronto in
1982 and his Ph.D from the Open University (U.K.) in 1985. He
completed post-doctoral studies at the University of Toronto and
undertook extensive research on the geology and geochemistry of the
Noril'sk ore deposits during his tenure as an Adjunct
Professor.
Dr.
Lightfoot will assist the Company with Minago exploration and
nickel property evaluation for staking and acquisition in the
Thompson nickel belt.
About the Minago Project
The Minago Project is located in the southern part of
Manitoba’s Thompson Nickel Belt (“TNB”), which is
the fifth largest sulphide nickel belt in the world based on
contained nickel endowment, containing over 18 nickel deposits and
over 5 billion lbs of nickel production since 1959. (Naldrett,
A.J., 2004, Magmatic Sulfide Deposits; Geology, Geochemistry and
Exploration: Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 725 p.).
On July 6, 2021, Silver Elephant announced Mineral Resource
Estimate for Minago prepared by Mercator and AGP with an effective
date of July 2, 2021 that includes a Measured and Indicated Mineral
Resource of 722 million lbs of nickel, and an Inferred Mineral
Resource of 319 million lbs of nickel at an average grade of 0.74%
nickel (mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have
demonstrated economic viability). The Minago Project has received
over $40 million in investment since early 2000.
Manitoba Provincial Highway 6 and a high-voltage (230 kV)
transmission line both transect the Minago project. Minago has been
demonstrated to produce a 22.3% nickel concentrate based on
representative feed of 0.54% nickel through extensive metallurgical
testing by SGS. Vale currently produces nickel concentrates in
Thompson at the heart of the TNB, 270 km northeast of the Minago
project. Its nickel concentrates are shipped to its Sudbury smelter
for processing to refined nickel.
