Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (TSX:SVB)(NYSE MKT:SVBL) ("Silver
Bull") is pleased to announce the results of underground channel
samples targeting the north, east, and western extensions to the
Shallow Silver Zone on the Sierra Mojada Project in Coahuila,
Northern Mexico.
Channel sample highlights include:
-- NORTH EXTENSION: 1620g/t Ag over 1 meter, 1530g/t Ag over 0.6 meters,
1520g/t Ag over 1 meter, 1055g/t Ag over 1.27 meters, 781 g/t Ag over 2
meters.
-- EAST EXTENSION: 1035g/t Ag & 28.3% Zn over 1 meter, 527g/t Ag & 17.4% Pb
over 1 meter, 801g/t Ag & 19.6% Pb over 1.3 meters, 433g/t Ag & 18.95%
Pb over 1 meter.
-- WEST EXTENSION: 566g/t Ag & 10.15% Zn over 1.5 meters, 391g/t Ag & 1.16%
Cu over 1.5 meters, 327g/t Ag & 2.59% Zn over 1.5 meters, 307g/t Ag & 1%
Cu over 1.5 meters.
-- All channel samples were taken along the walls of historical underground
workings and lie outside the present silver resource of 162.9 million
ounces of indicated silver (25g/t cutoff) and show the continued
extension of the high grade mineralization in the north, east and
westerly directions.
The channel samples mentioned in this news release target the
extension of the high grade mineralization previously defined
within the Shallow Silver Zone. Continuous 1 to 2 meter long chip
samples were taken along the walls of historical underground
workings at the north, east and western extents of the Shallow
Silver Zone. The purpose of the program was to extend the high
grade mineralization of the Shallow Silver Zone, better understand
the geology and controls on the mineralization, and confirm the
overall grades of the silver and zinc historically mined.
Approximately 440 meters of underground workings were sampled
along the eastern extension, 330 meters along the northern
extension, and 160 meters along the western extension. Of the 527
channel samples taken, 82 samples recorded values over 100g/t
silver with a peak value of 1620g/t silver, 142 samples recorded
values over 3% zinc with a peak value of 45% zinc, and 53 samples
recorded values over 25% lead with a peak value of 19.75% lead.
Tim Barry, President and CEO of Silver Bull states, "It is
important to realize that all of these channel samples fall outside
the present 162.9 million ounce silver resource and clearly show
that there is significant upside still left to be developed at
Sierra Mojada. In the current market conditions the focus of the
company right now is to finish up our metallurgical program and put
out a Preliminary Economic Assessment on the significant silver and
zinc resource we have defined at Sierra Mojada to date. We expect
to have this report to the market out towards the end of
September."

About the Shallow Silver Zone: The "Shallow Silver Zone" is an
oxide silver deposit (+/- zinc, lead & copper), hosted along an
east-west trending fracture-karst system set in a cretaceous
limestone-dolomite sequence. At a 25g/t cutoff grade the Shallow
Silver Zone has an indicated resource of 72.9 million tonnes at an
average grade of 69.5 g/t for 162.9 million contained troy ounces
of silver. The mineralized body averages between 30m - 90m thick,
up to 200m wide and remains open in all directions. Approximately
60% of the current 3.8 kilometer strike length is at or near
surface before dipping at around 6 degrees to the east.
Sample Analysis and QA/QC: All samples have been analyzed at ALS
Chemex in North Vancouver, BC, Canada. Samples are first tested
with the "ME-ICP41m" procedure which analyzes for 35 elements using
a near total aqua regia digestion. Samples with silver values above
100ppm are re-analyzed using the Ag-GRA21 procedure which is a fire
assay with a gravimetric finish. Samples with zinc, lead, and
copper values above 10,000ppm (1%) are re-analyzed using the AA46
procedure which is a near total aqua regia digestion with an atomic
absorption finish.
A rigorous procedure is in place regarding sample collection,
chain of custody and data entry. Certified standards and blanks, as
well as duplicate samples are routinely inserted into all sample
shipments to ensure integrity of the assay process.
About Silver Bull: Silver Bull is a US registered mineral
exploration company listed on both the NYSE MKT and TSX stock
exchanges and based out of Vancouver, Canada. The flag ship "Sierra
Mojada" project is located 150 kilometers north of the city of
Torreon in Coahuila, Mexico, and is highly prospective for silver
and zinc. Silver Bull also has 2 mineral licenses in Gabon, Central
Africa, which are prospective for gold, manganese, and iron
ore.
The technical information of this news release has been reviewed

purposes of National Instrument 43-101.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors concerning estimates of
Indicated and Inferred Resources: This press release uses the terms
"indicated resources" and "inferred resources" which are defined
in, and required to be disclosed by, NI 43-101. We advise U.S.
investors that these terms are not recognized by the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The estimation of
indicated resources involves greater uncertainty as to their
existence and economic feasibility than the estimation of proven
and probable reserves. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume
that indicated mineral resources will be converted into reserves.
The estimation of inferred resources involves far greater
uncertainty as to their existence and economic viability than the
estimation of other categories of resources. U.S. investors are
cautioned not to assume that estimates of inferred mineral
resources exist, are economically minable, or will be upgraded into
measured or indicated mineral resources. Under Canadian securities
laws, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the
basis of feasibility or other economic studies.
Disclosure of "contained ounces" in a resource is permitted
disclosure under Canadian regulations, however the SEC normally
only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not
constitute "reserves" by SEC standards as in place tonnage and
grade without reference to unit measures. Accordingly, the
information contained in this press release may not be comparable
to similar information made public by U.S. companies that are not
subject NI 43-101.
Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements: This news
release contains forward-looking statements regarding future events
and Silver Bull's future results that are subject to the safe
harbors created under the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), and applicable Canadian securities
laws. Forward-looking statements include, among others, statements
regarding indicated and inferred resource estimates and the timing
of the preparation and completion of the metallurgical program and
a Preliminary Economic Analysis. These statements are based on
current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections about
Silver Bull's exploration projects, the industry in which Silver
Bull operates and the beliefs and assumptions of Silver Bull's
management. Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "targets,"
"goals," "projects," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks,"
"estimates," "continues," "may," variations of such words, and
similar expressions and references to future periods, are intended
to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking
statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and
uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, including such
factors as the results of exploration activities and whether the
results continue to support continued exploration activities,
unexpected variations in ore grade, types and metallurgy,
volatility and level of commodity prices, the availability of
sufficient future financing, and other matters discussed under the
caption "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, as amended, and our other
periodic and current reports filed with the SEC and available on
www.sec.gov and with the Canadian securities commissions available
on www.sedar.com. Readers are cautioned that forward-looking
statements are not guarantees of future performance and that actual
results or developments may differ materially from those expressed
or implied in the forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking
statement made by us in this release is based only on information
currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which
it is made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any
forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be
made from time to time, whether as a result of new information,
future developments or otherwise.
