Vancouver, British Columbia, February 24th, 2025 TheNewswire - Prismo Metals Inc. ("Prismo" or the "Company") (CSE: PRIZ) (OTCQB: PMOMF) today provided an update regarding its projects in Arizona and Mexico, as well as recent corporate activities.

"The priority for Prismo in 2025 remains raising the necessary capital to undertake a 5,000-meter drill program at our Hot Breccia copper project located in the heart of the prolific Arizona Copper Belt", said Alain Lambert, CEO of Prismo.

The Hot Breccia copper project consists of 1,420 hectares in 227 contiguous mining claims located in the world class Arizona Copper Belt surrounded by several very well understood world-class copper mines including Morenci, Ray, San Manuel and Resolution (Figure 1). Hot Breccia shows many features in common with these neighboring systems, most prominently a swarm of porphyry dikes and series of breccia pipes containing fragments of well copper-mineralized rocks mixed with fragments of volcanic and sedimentary units, derived from considerable depth. Prismo performed a ZTEM survey last year that identified a very large conductive anomaly directly beneath the breccia outcrops.

Mr. Lambert added: "Our updated financing strategy includes continuing discussions with both potential investors and strategic partners already present in our district or wanting to gain a foothold in the district. As such, we expect to proceed with a financing on different terms than we contemplated in late 2024 (1) ."

As part of Prismo's financing efforts to fund the proposed drill program at Hot Breccia, the Company confirms its attendance at the upcoming Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada's (PDAC) Convention at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre (MTCC) from Sunday, March 2 to Wednesday, March 5, 2025. The Company encourages attendees to meet the Prismo team at Booth #3145 in the Investor's Exchange.

Palos Verdes

At the Palos Verdes project the fourth phase of drilling by Prismo was undertaken last year.  As announced on July 31 st , 2024, Prismo's team mobilized at Palos Verdes in early August and immediately began preparation for the drill program which is a collaborative effort between Prismo and Vizsla Silver. The drill program follows three main target recommendations made by the Panuco Joint Technical Committee comprised of Prismo 's Chief Exploration Officer Dr. Craig Gibson, Vizsla Silver' s VP Exploration Dr. Jesus Velador and Advisor Dr. Peter Megaw. The program has three main goals (See Figs. 2 & 3 below):

1. Trace the down dip extension of the mineralized shoot defined by previous drilling on the southwest portion of the vein.

2. Seek continuation of the vein on the northeast extension of the vein across a cross-fault believed to have offset the vein downward.

3. Test the extreme northeasterly extension of the Palos Verdes vein system near the concession limit adjacent to the historical Jesusita mine.

The Company announced that drilling had begun on September 24, 2024, with a goal to test targets on the Palos Verdes concession utilizing drill pads located on Vizsla's concessions adjacent to Palos Verdes for greater drilling efficiency. Two holes were completed from remote site PV005 to drill downdip from the high-grade mineralized body drilled previously: PV-24-34 was drilled to a depth of 286.5 meters and hole PV-24-35 was drilled to a depth of 318.0 meters. The program was curtailed in late November after slow advances and budgetary considerations.  Assay results from the drilling remain pending.

The location of new hole PV-24-34 is also shown.

Shares for Debt Transactions and Options Grant

Prismo also announces that it has entered into debt settlement agreements (the "Settlement Agreements") with certain creditors of the Company (the "Creditors") pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to the Creditors, and the Creditors agreed to accept, an aggregate of (i) 4,436,175  shares of the Company (each, a "Share") at an average price of $0.105 per Share in full and final settlement of accrued and outstanding indebtedness in the aggregate amount of $460,959 (the "Debt Settlement").

"Sixty-four percent (64%) of the shares to be issued will be issued to Walnut Mines LL, an Arizona corporation ("Walnut") which owns the Hot Breccia claims optioned by Prismo. Walnut has agreed to increase their ownership position in Prismo in lieu of cash to make up for an approximate $284,559 in exploration expenditure shortfall in 2024 as well as postponing a $100,000 option payment. We thank Walnut for their continued support of Prismo and the Hot Breccia project," said Mr. Lambert.

Dr. Linus Keating CPG, the Manager of Walnut stated today, "Walnut is pleased to see Prismo advancing the Hot Breccia project. These partners have contributed good quality technical work that has significantly advanced this important porphyry copper property into a large-scale target. Walnut believes that a positive and ongoing relationship will progress into resounding success."

All securities issued pursuant to the Debt Settlement will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months from the date of issuance, in accordance with applicable policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange.

Prismo announced that it has granted 250,000 Options to a consultant of the Company. The Options are each exercisable to purchase one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") at an exercise price of $0.12 for a period of two years. The Options will vest as of 25% vesting immediately and 25% every three months thereafter.

Los Pavitos

Prismo has provided Minera Cascabel with a notice of termination of the Option Agreement dated October 11 th , 2019. In the current market conditions Prismo is not in a position to support this project, and considering the ongoing funding requirement just to hold the property, it was decided that terminating the option was the best course of action.
