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.
About Prismo Metals:
Prismo Metals is a mining exploration company focused on advancing the Hot Breccia copper project in Arizona and the Palos Verdes silver project in Mexico, recently expanding its portfolio with high-grade historic silver-gold mines in Arizona’s prolific Copper Belt.
