Vizsla Silver Corp. (TSXV: VZLA, NYSE: VZLA, Frankfurt: 0G3) is a Canadian mineral exploration and development company with its headquarters in Vancouver, BC. The company is primarily focused on advancing its flagship, 100%-owned Panuco silver-gold project located in Sinaloa, Mexico. This project spans 17,856.5 hectares and is notable for its high-grade silver and gold mineralization.
At the core of the Panuco project are numerous mineral deposits, including the Copala and Napoleon veins. The Panuco district has a proven track record with over 86 kilometers of total vein extent and 35 kilometers of underground workings, supported by established roads, power, and permits.
Vizsla Silver has made significant strides in exploration, completing over 368,000 meters of drilling to discover several new high-grade veins. The company recently announced an updated mineral resource estimate for Panuco, which includes an estimated in-situ indicated mineral resource of 155.8 Moz AgEq and an in-situ inferred resource of 169.6 Moz AgEq.
In a strategic move to expand its resource base, Vizsla Silver entered into an agreement to acquire the past-producing La Garra-Metates district situated in the heart of the Panuco – San Dimas corridor. This acquisition includes two vein systems with significant silver and gold grades, further bolstering the company's portfolio.
For 2024, Vizsla Silver has outlined an ambitious plan, budgeting over 65,000 meters of resource and discovery-based drilling. The primary objectives are to upgrade and expand the existing mineral resources, as well as to test other high-priority targets across the district. The company aims to de-risk the resource base located in the western portion of the district ahead of a development decision, strategically positioning itself to become a leading silver producer globally.
Vizsla Silver is not just limited to exploration. The company is actively involved in various strategic initiatives, including the spinout of Vizsla Royalties Corp. (Spinco) to its shareholders. This move is expected to enhance shareholder value by unlocking the potential of its royalty assets.
Ensuring rigorous quality control, Vizsla Silver employs systematic insertion of control samples, certified reference materials, duplicates, and blanks into the sample stream. These samples are analyzed at ISO certified facilities, maintaining high standards of accuracy and reliability.
With a talented management team, a strong financial position, and a clear focus on strategic growth, Vizsla Silver is well-positioned to capitalize on the rising demand for silver driven by global decarbonization and electrification efforts.
