Prismo Metals (CSE: PRIZ) (OTCQB: PMOMF) has reported positive assay results from its extensive exploration of the 5,289-hectare (20 square miles) Los Pavitos project, situated in the mineral-rich Alamos region of southern Sonora State, Mexico. The most promising findings were observed at the Las Auras and Santa Cruz target areas, where numerous gold assays exceeded 3 grams per ton (g/t) over widths ranging from 0.15 to 1.5 meters.
The Las Auras target area delivered particularly impressive results, with the highest gold concentration reaching 14.35 g/t over 0.5 meters, and 12.25 g/t over a 1-meter width in two distinct locations. At the Santa Cruz target, ongoing sampling also revealed notable gold and silver values. The best results featured 5.48 g/t gold and 269 g/t silver over a 0.5-meter width, while another sample displayed 543 g/t silver and 1 g/t gold over 1.5 meters.
The most recent phase of systematic mapping and sampling focused on the Las Auras target, where 199 samples were collected. Additionally, follow-up sampling at Santa Cruz saw the completion of 94 samples. Out of the 293 samples, forty-nine yielded gold concentrations of 0.5 g/t or higher, and eleven samples also contained over 100 g/t silver. The pathfinder elements arsenic (As) and bismuth (Bi) were generally found to be strongly anomalous.
Dr. Craig Gibson, President and CEO of Prismo Metals, commented in a press release: “We are very pleased to see high-grade gold results emerge from our detailed sampling program at Las Auras along with continued high gold and local silver from Santa Cruz. The two areas are different; Las Auras is characterized by northwest trending veins and shears hosted in intrusions, while Santa Cruz is dominated by northeast trending veins that follow sedimentary bedding. Both areas have significant soil cover and trenching will help trace the structures and determine the full width of the mineralized areas”.
