Michael Fox sits down with Alain Lambert (CEO) and Dr. Craig Gibson (Chief Exploration Officer) of Prismo Metals (CSE: PRIZ) to discuss the company’s latest exploration activities and strategic direction.
Project Highlights:
Palos Verdes Silver Prospect (Mexico):
• Located in Sinaloa, this project is surrounded by Vizsla Silver, Prismo’s largest shareholder.
• The team is advancing a new drill program (1,250 meters in the first phase), targeting high-grade silver mineralization at greater depths than previous campaigns.
• Dr. Gibson emphasizes that previous drilling intersected high-grade silver and gold, and the current program aims to test the deeper, potentially larger orebody beneath what they believe is just the “tip of the iceberg”.
• The project benefits from its strategic location next to one of the region’s major recent silver discoveries.
Hot Breccia Copper Project (Arizona):
• Situated in the heart of the Arizona Copper Belt, near major copper mines and the soon-to-be-permitted Resolution Copper mine, as well as the historic Christmas Mine and Hayden Smelter.
• Dr. Gibson outlines plans for a 5,000-meter drill program targeting a large conductivity anomaly identified by modern ZTEM geophysical surveys—an anomaly that historic 1970s drilling by Kennecott missed.
• The company will drill four deep holes (800 meters to 1.2 kilometers, extendable to 1.5 kilometers) to test this target, leveraging AI and modern geophysics to improve success odds.
• The project is timely given the U.S. focus on domestic copper production and recent 50% copper import tariffs, adding strategic value. Arizona Silver Mines Acquisition:
Prismo has acquired two historic silver mines in Arizona: Ripsey and Silver King.
• Both are close to the town of Superior and the Resolution Copper deposit.
• The Silver King mine, historically one of Arizona’s most important, features a pipe-like structure with dense veining and high-grade silver remaining in upper levels due to early 1900s processing challenges.
• Dr. Gibson notes that modern exploration will target both high-grade zones and the surrounding lower-grade mineralization, with initial plans for surface mapping, sampling, and 1,000 meters of shallow drilling.
• Renowned silver expert Dr. Peter Megaw will contribute to the exploration program.
