What Prismo Metals does

Prismo Metals Inc. is a growth-stage mineral exploration company incorporated in British Columbia, Canada and headquartered in Vancouver at 1110-1111 Melville Street. The company acquires, explores, and develops precious and base metal projects, currently holding four assets: the 1,420-hectare Hot Breccia Copper Project, the 125-hectare Silver King Project, and the Ripsey Project in Arizona's Copper Belt, together with the 22.8-hectare Palos Verdes Project in the Pánuco-Copala silver-gold district of Sinaloa, Mexico. Prismo went public on the Canadian Securities Exchange in September 2020 under ticker PRIZ (CAD $575,000 IPO at $0.125/share) and subsequently dual-listed on the OTCQB (PMOMF, July 2022) and Frankfurt Stock Exchange (7KU, April 2024). Following the January 2026 transaction with Infinitum Copper, Prismo controls 95% of Hot Breccia with an irrevocable option on the residual 5%.

Prismo's exploration toolkit combines conventional methods — HQ-core diamond drilling, ZTEM airborne geophysics, LiDAR surveys — with third-party AI-assisted data analysis (Windfall Geotek, engaged August 2025 at Hot Breccia). Reported drill and assay results include Palos Verdes intercepts of 102 g/t gold and 3,100 g/t silver over 0.5 meters (11,520 g/t AgEq), Silver King historic production of nearly 6 million ounces at 21-61 oz/ton silver with copper grades reaching 6.02%, Hot Breccia assays up to 5.69% copper, and Ripsey sampling returning up to 15.85 g/t gold and 276 g/t silver. The Silver King property sits only 3 km from the Resolution Copper project (BHP/Rio Tinto JV), the world's largest unmined copper deposit.

Prismo is pre-revenue: it generates no operating revenue from mineral production and finances exploration entirely through equity (cumulative disclosed raises of roughly CAD $7.5M since the 2020 IPO across at least six private placements and warrant exercises). Its go-to-market is event-driven and investor-relations-led: PDAC, VRIC, and similar mining conferences, monthly newsletters, news releases, and webinars targeting retail and institutional mining investors. The strategic monetization pathway is joint venture, option, or outright sale of properties to producing miners; Vizsla Silver Corp. is the most material counterparty, having invested CAD $2.0M in January 2023, holding a right of first refusal on Palos Verdes, and sitting on a Joint Technical Committee for Pánuco district exploration.

Core offering

Prismo Metals is a junior mining exploration company that acquires, explores, and develops precious and base metal mineral properties. It currently holds four exploration-stage projects: the Hot Breccia copper project (1,420 ha) and Silver King silver-copper project in Arizona's Copper Belt, the Ripsey gold-silver-copper project in Arizona, and the Palos Verdes silver-gold project (22.8 ha) in Sinaloa, Mexico. The company generates long-term value through discovery of economic mineral deposits and monetizes them via joint ventures, option/farm-out agreements, or outright sales to larger mining companies.

• Infinitum CoppercoreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 9 January 2026Infinitum Copper reduced its stake in the Hot Breccia copper project from 25% to 5% while Prismo secured an irrevocable option to acquire the remaining stake. The transaction involves a CAD 185,000 cash payment and assumption of approximately CAD 54,000 in obligations, with closing expected around January 16, 2026. This restructuring positions Prismo for potential full control of the Hot Breccia project.

Emerging players

• Skeena Resources: Skeena Resources is an emerging gold-silver developer in BC, associated with the Snip deposit that Prismo director Allan Frame was historically connected to. It is a useful emerging-player benchmark for North American junior precious-metals project financing and M&A.
• Tocvan Ventures: Tocvan Ventures is a small-cap gold-silver explorer in Sonora, Mexico, similar in scale and stage to Prismo. It serves as an emerging-player comparable for junior precious-metals exploration economics and capital raise structure in Mexico.

Broad incumbents

• Garibaldi Resources Corp: Garibaldi Resources is a Canadian junior explorer in BC and Mexico where Prismo's CEO Dr. Craig Gibson sits as a director. It is a broader-incumbent peer with overlapping management, providing a public-market comparable for capital allocation and dilution profile in junior exploration.
• First Majestic Silver: First Majestic Silver is a mid-tier silver producer with multiple operations in Mexico, including near Pánuco. It serves as a broader-incumbent benchmark for the regional Mexican silver mining economics that Palos Verdes could ultimately feed into.
• Capstone Copper: Capstone Copper is a mid-tier copper producer with Arizona assets (Pinto Valley). It represents a broader-incumbent peer and potential acquirer benchmark for the Arizona Copper Belt assets in Prismo's portfolio.

Direct peers

• SilverCrest Metals: SilverCrest Metals is a high-grade silver-gold developer in Mexico (Las Chispas), offering a comparable precious-metals growth profile in Mexico and a recent takeout reference point (acquired by Coeur Mining) for the type of asset Prismo is exploring for at Palos Verdes.
• Arizona Sonoran Copper Company: Arizona Sonoran Copper is a copper developer in the Arizona Copper Belt (Cactus Project), operating in the same tier-one copper jurisdiction as Prismo's Hot Breccia and Silver King assets. It represents a more advanced benchmark for Arizona copper exploration economics and M&A comparables.
• Vizsla Silver Corp: Vizsla Silver is a silver-gold developer in the Pánuco-Copala district of Sinaloa, Mexico, directly adjacent to Prismo's Palos Verdes project. It is also a strategic shareholder and joint technical committee partner, making it both a peer and a partner for benchmarking discovery economics in the same district.
• MAG Silver Corp: MAG Silver is a silver-focused developer with assets in Mexico (Juanicipio, with Fresnillo). It is a relevant peer for Prismo's Panuco district silver exposure and provides a benchmark for valuation of high-grade Mexican silver assets.
• Infinitum Copper Corp: Infinitum Copper is a copper exploration peer in Arizona and was Prismo's joint-venture partner at the Hot Breccia project, with its stake reduced to 5% in January 2026. It is a directly comparable Arizona copper junior with similar project scale and stage.
