Endeavour Silver Reports Fatality at El Cubo Mine

Endeavour Silver Corp. (NYSE:EXK)(TSX:EDR) regrets to report the death of an
employee on Saturday, April 5, 2014 due to a rock fall underground at the
V-Asuncion mine, part of the El Cubo mine operations in Guanajuato State,
Mexico.


The V-Asuncion mine was closed immediately and an internal investigation has
been completed. Endeavour is now working with the Mexican authorities to
facilitate their investigation of this accident. Once the investigation is
completed, Endeavour will review and implement any additional safety measures
recommended to prevent such an accident from recurring.


As this is the second fatal accident at Endeavour's mining operations in Mexico
in the last week, the Company has decided to immediately implement a full safety
retraining program at all three mines. Each mine will shut down for two days so
each shift in turn can receive a two day refresher course on safety policies and
practices. In addition, Endeavour will retain a group of safety specialists to
review the company safety programs and implement their recommendations. The
Company is already ahead of its production plan for the year so the mine
closures are not expected to impact production guidance.


Bradford Cooke, CEO of Endeavour stated, "We truly regret this accident and we
offer our sincere condolences to the family of the deceased. The safety of our
employees is a top priority for Endeavour. We have initiated stronger measures
to try and prevent such accidents from recurring, and we will continue to seek
out new initiatives to protect the health of our employees."


About Endeavour - Endeavour is a mid-tier silver mining company focused on
growing its profits, production, reserves and resources in Mexico. Since
start-up in 2004, Endeavour has posted nine consecutive years of accretive
growth of its silver mining operations. The organic expansion programs now
underway at Endeavour's three silver-gold mines in Mexico combined with its
strategic acquisition and exploration programs should facilitate Endeavour's
goal to become a premier senior silver producer.
