Prismo Metals and Vizsla Silver Sign Definitive Agreement for Strategic Investment and Right of First Refusal on Palos Verdes Project

Prismo Metals and Vizsla Silver Sign Definitive Agreement for Strategic Investment and Right of First Refusal on Palos Verdes Project

Prismo Metals Inc. (CSE: PRIZ) (OTCQB: PMOMF) ("Prismo") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding strategic investment agreement (the "Definitive Agreement") with Vizsla Silver Corp. (TSXV: VZLA, NYSE: VZLA, Frankfurt: 0G3) ("Vizsla"). Pursuant to the Definitive Agreement, Vizsla will make a strategic investment in Prismo by acquiring 4 million units of Prismo (the "Prismo Units"), for an aggregate consideration of $2 million (the "Strategic Investment"). Vizsla will also acquire a right of first refusal to purchase the Palos Verdes project from Prismo.

Transaction Highlights of Strategic Investment

  • The Strategic Investment will provide Prismo with a cash injection of $500,000 and the issuance of one million Vizsla shares valued at $1.5 million which will provide Prismo shareholders with further exposure to the Panuco district in Mexico via an equity ownership position in Vizsla.
  • Prismo and Vizsla will form a joint technical committee to allow for the pursuit of district-scale exploration of the Panuco silver-gold. The technical committee will be comprised of one nominee from Prismo, one nominee from Vizsla and one nominee mutually acceptable by both parties.
  • Following completion of the Strategic Investment, Vizsla will own approximately 10.1% of Prismo on a basic basis and 14.4% on a partially diluted basis.

Mr. Craig Gibson, President & CEO of Prismo commented: "The signing of the Definitive Agreement with Vizsla Silver comes on the heels of our recently completed financing of $3 million with three institutional investors. Following the closing of the Strategic Investment by Vizsla, Prismo will be fully funded until 2024. Our capital structure will remain strong with 28.7% of our shares being owed by management, directors and close advisors, 10.1 % owned by Vizsla and 14.6% owned by institutional investors." Dr. Gibson added: "We look forward to working closely with Vizsla's team to advance our mutual understanding of the long-underexplored, high-grade silver-gold Panuco district in Mexico. We look forward to the combined Prismo-Vizsla brain-trust unraveling the geology to unlock the potential of Palos Verdes and the entire Panuco district."

Transaction Details

Vizsla will subscribe to 4 million Prismo Units (each a "Unit") of Prismo. Each Unit consists of one common share of Prismo and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles Vizsla to acquire one common share of Prismo at a price of $0.75 for a period of two years.

The consideration for the Strategic Investment will consist of a cash payment of $500,000 at closing and the issuance of 1 million common shares of Vizsla.

The common shares received by Vizsla, and the Vizsla common shares received by Prismo will be subject to (i) a regulatory four-month hold period and (ii) a voluntary hold period of up to twenty-four months with 25% of the shares being released every six months.

The Definitive Agreement includes, subject to certain conditions, the following rights:

  • Prismo and Vizsla forming a technical committee, funded by Vizsla, to focus on a district scale understanding of the combined land package without regard to ownership.
  • Vizsla having the right to nominate one director to Prismo's board of directors.
  • Vizsla being granted a right of first refusal to purchase the Palos Verdes project for a duration of four years, subject to an acceleration clause if Vizsla's ownership in Prismo drops below 8.0% for a period of more than 60 days.
  • Vizsla being granted the right to maintain its pro-rata ownership in Prismo in future financings and standard top-up rights (subject to Vizsla maintaining a minimum 8.0% equity ownership position in Prismo).

The closing of the Strategic Investment is conditional upon obtaining all regulatory and third-party approvals and consents which may be required.

RETRANSMISSION: Prismo Metals Announces Definitive Agreement to Acquire Majority Interest in Hot Breccia Property in the Arizona Copper Belt

Prismo Metals Inc. (CSE: PRIZ) (OTCQB: PMOMF) ("Prismo") is pleased to announce that it has signed a definitive agreement (the "Agreement") with Infinitum Copper Corp. (TSXV: INFI) (OTCQB: INUMF) ("Infinitum") to acquire a 75% interest in the Hot Breccia porphyry copper-skarn project (the "Project" or "Hot Breccia") located in the Arizona Copper Belt which is home to some of the largest copper deposits in the world.

The Project consists of 227 mining concessions that lie about four kilometers from the historic Christmas mine which recorded production of about 481.6 Mlbs of copper from 20.2 M tons at a grade of 1.2% Cu plus significant gold and silver (Sources: Arizona Geological Society Spring Field Trip Guide in 2014). The Company has not been able to verify the production information and it is not necessarily indicative of the mineralization on the Hot Breccia property. It is believed that the Hot Breccia property may contain high grade skarn mineralization similar to that originally mined at the Christmas mine and the historical information is being used by the Company solely to plan and guide future exploration.
