Alexco Reports Final Results from 2021 Bermingham Drilling Program, Composite Assays to 1,383 g/t Ag over 11.09 Meters True Width

High Grade Silver Mineralization Confirmed along 500 meter Zone

VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 16, 2021 /CNW/ - Alexco Resource Corp. (NYSE American: AXU) (TSX: AXU) ("Alexco" or the "Company") today reported the balance of results from its 2021 directional drilling program at the Bermingham Northeast Deep zone in the Keno Hill Silver District, Yukon Territory ("Keno Hill"). The 17,742 meter ("m") drill program completed 52 intercepts through the multi-vein target zone, which extends approximately 500 m along strike with at least a 100 m vertical extent. Initial results were reported on September 7, 2021 (see news release). With all assays now received, the Company is calculating a revised estimated mineral resource for the Bermingham deposit, which currently contains a silver resource of 32.96 million ounces ("Moz") Indicated (including 18.2 Moz Probable Reserve) and 11.74 Moz Inferred (see news release). The resource estimation of the newly defined zone is expected to be complete before year end 2021.

2021 Exploration Results Highlights

Final results from 2021 Northeast Deep zone drilling (Table 1) confirm the presence of a 500 m long sub-horizontal mineralized zone (Figure 1) with at least a 100 m vertical extent located approximately 150 m below the Bermingham Northeast mining reserve.

In addition to the important intercepts previously reported from initial results in September 2021 (see news release), the more significant intercepts from the balance of the drilling (Table 2) are highlighted below:

• K-21-0800A intersected the Bermingham Main vein over a true width of 11.09 m from 187.75 m containing 1,383 grams per tonne ("g/t") (44.45 ounces per tonne ("oz/t")) silver ("Ag"), including 3.33 m true width from 189.00 m containing 2,959 g/t (95.14 oz/t) Ag.
• K-21-0803A intersected the Bermingham Footwall vein over a true width of 7.85 m from 170.85 m containing 1,358 g/t (43.66 oz/t) Ag.
• K-21-0797A intersected the Bermingham Main vein over a true width of 7.20 m from 207.82 m containing 1,082 g/t (34.78 oz/t) Ag.
• K-21-0800B intersected the Bermingham Main vein over a true width of 4.16 m from 216.80 m containing 3,226 g/t (103.72 oz/t), including 3.56 m true width from 216.80 m containing 3,748 g/t (120.50 oz/t) Ag.
• K-21-0803 intersected the Bermingham Footwall vein over a true width of 5.41 m from 478.58 m containing 1,331 g/t (42.80 oz/t) Ag.
• K-21-0800 intersected the Bermingham Footwall vein over a true width of 4.49 m from 464.65 m containing 1,205 g/t (38.73 oz/t) Ag.
• K-21-0799B intersected the Bermingham Footwall vein over a true width of 6.20 m from 270.30 m containing 888 g/t (28.56 oz/t) Ag.
• K-21-0796B intersected the Bermingham Footwall vein over a true width of 5.43 m from 299.50 m containing 996 g/t (32.03 oz/t) Ag.
• K-21-0792D intersected the BM2 vein over a true width of 3.02 m from 164.32 m containing 1,273 g/t (40.93 oz/t) Ag.

As in previous years, assay results are reported in Table 2 as +30 g/t Ag composite intervals (that may contain up to two meters of unmineralized material) as in essence this outlines the mineralized vein structures. Table 2 also includes +900 g/t Ag composites for comparison, this being the Bermingham Probable Reserve silver grade.

Alexco's Chairman and CEO, Clynt Nauman commented, "The 2021 infill and extension directional drilling program at Bermingham was very successful – and we have now turned our attention to the calculation of a revised mineral resource estimate for the Bermingham deposit. Without question, this discovery is important from an exploration perspective, but with mining operations at Bermingham already underway and with infrastructure planned to be within approximately 200 m of the newly defined mineralized zone, we are working with urgency to understand the size and tenor of the potentially expanded resource. Understanding the geology of the entire Bermingham deposit has significant exploration implications in a district where historically silver mineralization was considered shallow and discontinuous. There remains extensive areas along several kilometers of the vein-fault systems yet to be drill tested in favourable stratigraphy at depth. In particular, these areas include the northeastern extension of the Bermingham deposit towards the historic Hector-Calumet mine, as well as southwest to the Coral Wigwam prospect and beyond to the west."

2021 Program Summary and Bermingham Geology

The 2021 exploration program has provided nominal drill intersection spacings of 35 m along strike by 25 m dip separation along the subparallel Bermingham Main and Bermingham Footwall veins using directional drilling technology whereby shorter secondary drill-holes were initiated at depth from an existing primary drill-hole. The mineralized Northeast Deep zone is structurally complex with a horizontal to gentle northeast plunge along a strike length of 500 m and an apparent dip extent exceeding 100 m – the zone exhibits a mineralogy similar to that seen elsewhere in the Bermingham deposit. Characteristically, mineralized widths that range up to 20 m are coincident with changes in strike and dip of the hosting fault structure in response to variations in rock competency and proximity to the intersection of the two veins, which can now be traced over a 900 m strike length throughout the length of the Bermingham deposit. The mineralization is primarily hosted within the thick bedded quartzites of the Keno Hill Quartzite that also host the nearby historical Hector-Calumet deposit.

Operations Update

Ramp up of underground development and ore production continues with increasing ore production to design capacity rates (400 tonnes per day) targeted during Q1 2022. Ore production from the Bellekeno mine is complete with underground assets removed and redeployed and the mine has transitioned into longer term monitoring. At Flame & Moth, an Alimak nest has been completed on the 815 ore access level and the raise contractor is currently advancing the 85 m ventilation and secondary egress raise to surface. Two initial ore level accesses are being driven on the 815 and 835 levels at Flame & Moth with a target of having five ore production headings opened in early Q1 2022. At Bermingham, the first ore drive on the 1150 level is complete and long hole drilling is underway. Longhole stoping in the 1150 level is anticipated to commence before year end, which will provide a significant increase in ore tonnes delivered from Bermingham. In the mill, the installation of new concentrate regrind mills is complete and the installation of the secondary grinding mill has also been completed and commissioned. With commissioning of the secondary grinding mill using Bermingham ore feed, extended periods of throughput at 17 tonnes per hour (400 tonnes per day run rate) has been achieved along with design metallurgical performance and concentrate Ag grades in excess of 18,000 g/t being produced.

Retirement of Al McOnie, VP Exploration 

Alexco also announces that Mr. Al McOnie, Vice President, Exploration, has decided to retire from the Company after more than 15 years of service, effective December 31^st, 2021.  "Al has been a trusted friend and an exceptional leader at Alexco," said Clynt Nauman, Alexco's Chairman and CEO. "There can be no doubt that the incredible success of our exploration efforts over the past decade would not have been possible without Al and his leadership. On behalf of the Board and employees at Alexco, we wish Al the very best in his retirement."

Going forward, Ms. Liana Stammers, P.Geo, Alexco's Senior Exploration Geologist, will serve as the Company's Qualified Person for exploration related topics. Al McOnie has agreed to continue to be available to the Company to provide strategic advice regarding future exploration initiatives.

Qualified Persons and Procedures

The 2019 - 2021 exploration drill programs and sampling protocol has been reviewed, verified, and compiled by Alexco's geologic staff under the supervision of Alan McOnie, FAusIMM, Vice President Exploration and Liana Stammers, P.Geo, Senior Exploration Geologist, while that regarding mine development and operations has been reviewed and approved by Neil Chambers, P.Eng., Chief Mine Engineer, all of whom are Qualified Persons as defined by National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

Compared with previous years, the core sampling protocols have varied from sampling half HQ core, as more holes have been completed in NQ core in some daughter holes where essentially whole core assay sampling has been undertaken to ensure adequate sample size, providing adequate representative sample material has been retained and high resolution core photography undertaken.

A rigorous quality control and quality assurance protocol is used on the project, including blank, duplicate, and standard reference samples in each batch of 20 samples delivered to the assay lab. Drill core samples are shipped internally to ALS Minerals Labs at Whitehorse, Yukon for preparation, with multi-element ICP, fire assay and overlimit analyses completed at the ALS Minerals facility in North Vancouver, British Columbia.
