VIZSLA SAMPLES 1,264 G/T SILVER EQUIVALENT ACROSS 1.2
METRES AT PANUCO PROJECT, MEXICO
Vizsla Resources Corp. has released further surface sampling results from exploration in the Panuco
silver-gold district in Mexico. Recent surface sampling of the new Honduras vein has returned high grades
above minor historical workings over a 250-metre strike length. The vein trends northerly beneath younger
cover rocks concealing its true length. The results make this an attractive target for the current 14,500-metre
drilling program in progress.
Sampling highlights:
-
664 grams per tonne silver equivalent (508.0 g/t silver and 1.95 g/t gold) over 2.0 metres at Honduras 5
vein, including:
-
1,051 g/t silver equivalent (801.0 g/t silver and 3.12 g/t gold) over 1.0 metre;
- 436 g/t silver equivalent (287.7 g/t silver and 1.86 g/t gold) over 6.4 metres at Honduras 3
vein, including:
-
886 g/t silver equivalent (580.5 g/t silver and 3.82 g/t gold) over 2.6 metres,
including:
-
1,264 g/t silver equivalent (784.0 g/t silver and 6.00 g/t gold) over 1.2 metres.
Note: All numbers are rounded. Silver equivalent (AgEq) is calculated by multiplying the gold grade by 80 and adding it to the silver grade. This
calculation estimates 100-per-cent recovery of both metals. Widths are estimated to represent true widths. Equivalents are calculated using gold and silver
grades, and do not contain base metals.
"Vizsla continues to deliver new high-grade veins across the district. We are conducting first-pass drilling
on multiple veins at Panuco to establish priorities for possible resource definition drilling. While that
program proceeds, we are mapping and sampling the many veins in the district. That mapping continues
to reveal areas of high-grade mineralization previously not known to us. The Honduras vein is one such
locality," president and chief executive officer Michael Konnert commented.
Charles Funk, vice-president, exploration, stated: "Mining on the Honduras vein appears to have been limited to a 30- to 60-vertical-metre depth due to groundwater conditions. It is another vein that has never been drilled. We
plan to add Honduras to the list of veins being tested in the drilling program that recommenced in
January."

Channel sample results from the Honduras vein at Panuco. Silver equivalent (AgEq) is
calculated by multiplying the gold grade by 80 and adding it to the silver grade.
This calculation estimates 100-per-cent recovery of both metals. Widths are estimated
to represent true widths.
Drill campaign update
Drilling is under way along the Animals-Refugio corridor. The company has completed a total of three drill
holes and is expecting assays back in March, 2020.
About the Panuco project
Vizsla has an option to acquire 100 per cent of the newly consolidated 9,386.5-hectare Panuco district in southern
Sinaloa, Mexico, near the city of Mazatlan. The option allows for the acquisition of over 75 kilometres of total
vein extent, a 500-tonne-per-day mill, and 35 km of underground mines, tailings facilities, roads, power and permits.
The district contains intermediate- to low-sulphidation epithermal silver and gold deposits related to siliceous
volcanism and crustal extension in the Oligocene and Miocene. Host rocks are mainly continental volcanic
rocks correlated to the Tarahumara formation.
