Vizsla President and CEO, Michael Konnert, commented: “I am very pleased to announce that we have made a new, high-grade discovery a kilometre north from the original discovery at Napoleon. To have hit a high-grade discovery on the first hole at Papayo is a clear demonstration of the scale and potential of both the Napoleon Vein Corridor and the Panuco district.”

“Drilling is the most exciting phase of mineral exploration and the Company is looking forward to developing its understanding of the gold zones along strike and to depth and the potential in discovering new zones. The Company’s recent geological and structural mapping and rock sampling program has provided new interpretations to the controls of the gold mineralization in several prospects which will greatly aid our drilling program towards success,” commented CEO Lorne Warner.

N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng, and CEO, remarked, “We first looked at acquiring Picacho in 2016, after the sale of SilverCrest Mines Inc. (SilverCrest’s predecessor) in 2015, as a continuation of our regional exploration program on search of a new district containing multiple precious metal epithermal veins. After 4 years of patience, we have now acquired the next district. The most historic prominent vein in the district, El Picacho Vein, can be easily accessed by a 4 metre by 4 metre underground decline which visually shows the vein underground as approximately 6 metres wide with historic grades and SilverCrest recent sampling results ranging from 350 to 1,000 gpt silver equivalent.”
