Vancouver, British Columbia – May 22, 2012 – Huldra Silver Inc. (TSX-V:HDA) (the “Company” or “Huldra”) is pleased to announce that the Company has received a Mining Lease and a British Columbia Mines Act Permit approving a mine plan and reclamation program for the Company’s Treasure Mountain Mine along with an Amended Permit approving construction and operation of a process plant at the Company’s mill site in Merritt, BC.

The Mining Lease covers 335 hectares of active workings out of 7,000 acres of mineral tenures at the Treasure Mountain Mine. The mine plan for Treasure Mountain is for the removal of 60,000 tonnes per year of silver/lead/zinc ore from the underground mine and the transfer of such material offsite for processing. The Amended Permit for the Merritt mill site, approximately 70 minutes from Treasure Mountain, is for the construction and operation of a 200 tonne per day silver/lead/zinc mineral processing plant.

Ryan Sharp, President & CEO of Huldra, states, “We are extremely excited by this announcement that will allow the Company to move the Treasure Mountain Mine Project forward. Huldra welcomes the opportunity to become British Columbia’s next silver producer.”
