Prismo Metals (CSE: PRIZ, FRA: 7KU, WKN: A2QEGD) has now received the lab results for the soil samples taken at the Silver King project at the end of 2025. With their strong gold and silver content, they confirm that Prismo has two new, highly interesting drill targets on the Crown and Black Diamond target areas examined. At its peak, the samples taken from the ground contained 5.19 g/t gold and 177 g/t silver.
The results of the samples impressively confirm the assumption that there are further interesting drill targets on the eastern side of the project. The two new target areas are approximately 600 meters east of the historic Silver King Mine. Prismo Metals had additionally acquired these claims because it was assumed that the high-grade silver mineralization of the historic mine would continue in its immediate vicinity.
In addition, a porphyry with quartz-sulfide veins was identified on the Crown deposit. Together with the high gold contents reported for the stockwork intrusion of the Crown Porphyry in early December 2025, these findings led to the assumption that another target area suitable for drilling had been discovered. The results that are now available have provided proof of the accuracy of this assumption, and Prismo Metals can now focus its attention on determining the best locations for initial drilling on Crown and Black Diamond.
The exploration thesis of Prismo Metals is impressively confirmed
Craig Gibson, Chief Geologist of Prismo Metals, therefore assesses the soil program carried out at the end of 2025 not only as a great success, but also immediately looked to the future: “With the high-grade gold assay results reported in December and the copper assay results in the Black Diamond area, we now have a very significant precious metal and copper target at Silver King, similar to other areas in this well-mineralized district, which also includes the Magma Mine and the Resolution copper deposit.”
However, the analyzed soil samples not only showed high gold and silver contents. In addition to gold contents of up to 5.19 g/t and silver contents of 13.97 g/t up to a peak of 177 g/t silver, the best samples also contained lead, copper and zinc. The copper content reached a peak value of 0.07 percent copper in one sample, while the lead contents ranged between 0.07 and 0.37 percent. The zinc contents were lower. They ranged from 0.01 to 0.07 percent.
IP survey identifies further attractive targets
Prismo Metals was also able to complete a pole-dipole IP survey in December 2025. It only concerned part of the Silver King project and was intended to provide additional three-dimensional data for areas that had been identified in the first gradient array survey. Its results also confirm the company’s assumptions, as it is clear that the historic Silver King Mine appears to be associated with a large anomaly with low resistivity. This large anomaly is located at the contact point of the porphyry diorite with the mineralizations of the Silver King Mine.
In addition, there are two further anomalies with low resistivity that are associated with the historic mine. They were located on the Crown Porphyry and near the replacement mineralization at Black Diamond. The highest anomalies in terms of chargeability appear to be associated with the altered wall rocks along the intrusive contacts. It should be noted, however, that high chargeability can also be associated with the Crown Porphyry stockwork intrusion.
The Crown Porphyry is particularly interesting for Prismo Metals
The anomaly associated with the Crown Porphyry is currently of particular interest to Prismo Metals, as it can be traced from shallow levels to a depth of approximately 300 meters. Prismo’s exploration hypothesis is thus underpinned and confirmed by both the new soil samples and the IP surveys. With them, the company has a large number of additional drill targets that now need to be precisely determined and prioritized in the coming weeks and months.
However, the positive results of the IP surveys and soil samples will not initially change the company’s short-term plans, as Prismo Metals, as confirmed by CEO Alain Lambert, will initially concentrate on carrying out the already announced and fully financed drilling program as planned.
This drilling campaign will primarily focus on the historic Silver King Mine site and will comprise approximately 2,000 meters of drilling. The aim of these drillings is to investigate the upper half of the steeply sloping, pipe-like Silver King mineralization body as well as potential mineralizations next to the dense stockwork that was the focus of historic mining.
The ongoing approval processes are progressing steadily
The news that Prismo has to report from the ongoing approval process is also pleasing. In general, CEO Lambert notes that the cooperation with the officials of the Forest Service reveals a clear commitment by the authorities to support new mining activities.
The Forest Service, as the federal land use authority responsible for Silver King, has determined that the drilling plan proposed by the company meets the legal requirements for processing and that this plan is complete in accordance with the provisions in 36 CFR 228.4(c).
The environmental analysis is currently being carried out in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). This analysis is being carried out as a so-called “Categorical Exclusion” and thus corresponds to the lowest level of environmental assessment. It applies to projects that are believed to have no significant impact on the environment.
Prismo Metals is thus starting the year 2026 not only with a wealth of good news, but also with a lot of new tasks and work. If they can be carried out with the same success that the company was already granted in 2025, the stock market’s enthusiasm for the company and its project should continue to increase.
