The Panuco Project is in the Panuco-Copala mining district (the Property) in the municipality of Concordia, southern Sinaloa state, along the western margin of the Sierra Madre Occidental physiographic province in western Mexico. The Project is centred at 23 18' north latitude and 105 56' west longitude on map sheets F13A-37. The Project comprises 105 approved mining concessions in nineteen blocks, covering a total area of 5,433 hectares (ha), and two applications for two mineral concessions covering 1,321.15 ha. The mineral concessions are held 100% by Vizsla Silver.

1.3Accessibility, Local Resources, and Infrastructure

The Panuco Project area is accessed heading east from Mazatlán via Federal Highway 15 to Villa Union, then east on Highway 40 for 56 km (one-hour drive). Highway 40 crosscuts the Project area and most of the vein structures. Toll Highway 40D also crosses the Project. In addition, local dirt roads provide access to most of the workings, but some require repairs or are overgrown, and four-wheel-drive vehicles are recommended in the wet season. Two power lines connecting Durango and Mazatlán cross the Project, with 400 kV and 240 kV capacities.

The Project is in the Concordia municipality, which has a population of approximately 27,000. Public services, including health clinics and police, are in the town of Concordia. Residents provide an experienced mine labour force. Contractors in Durango and Hermosillo have a strong mining tradition and provide the Project with a local source of knowledgeable labour and contract mining services.

1.4Geology Setting

1.4.1Regional Geology

The Project is on the western margin of the Sierra Madre Occidental (SMO), a high plateau and physiographic province that extends from the U.S.A.-Mexico border to the east-trending Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt. The SMO is an igneous province recording continental magmatic activity from the Late Cretaceous to the Miocene; it has been divided into two main episodes. The first episode, termed the Lower Volcanic Complex (LVC), comprises an intermediate intrusive suite including the Sonora, Sinaloa, and Jalisco batholiths and associated volcanic components of the Tarahumara Formation in Sonora, and equivalent volcanic rocks in the Jalisco block. This period of magmatic activity is associated with the Laramide orogeny and occurred from 80 to 50 million years ago (Ma).

Panuco Project Mineral Resource Estimate
Concordia, Sinaloa, Mexico

The second magmatic episode is dominated by rhyolitic ignimbrites that built one of the earth's largest silicic volcanic provinces and has been termed the Upper Volcanic Supergroup (UVS). These dominantly rhyolitic lavas were extruded in two episodes, from about 35 to 29 Ma and 24 to 20 Ma. The western part of the SMO is cut by normal fault systems associated with the Gulf of California rift zone and subsequent extensional basins that developed between about 27 and 15 Ma containing continental sedimentary rocks. The continental sedimentary rocks occur in a north-northwest-trending belt extending from western Sonora to most of Sinaloa.

The basement to the SMO is locally exposed in Sinaloa. It comprises folded metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks, deformed granitoids, phyllitic sandstones, quartzites, and schists ranging from Jurassic to Early Cretaceous (Montoya-Lopera et al., 2019).

1.4.2Mineralization

Mineralization on the Panuco property comprises several epithermal quartz veins. Vizsla Silver and previous workers have traced approximately 75 km of cumulative strike length of these veins. Individual vein corridors are up to 7.6 km long and range from decimetres to greater than 10 m wide. Veins have narrow envelopes of silicification, and local argillic alteration is commonly in contact with clay gouge. More distal alteration comprises propylitic alteration as chlorite.

The Mineral Resource includes eight mineralized vein systems grouped as domains: the Napoleon, Josephine, Napoleon hanging wall veins; the Tajitos, Vein 3, and Copala veins; the San Antonio vein; and the Rosarito vein. These domains are west to east within the Napoleon, Cinco Senores, Cordon del Oro, and Animas-Refugio corridors. The bulk of the resource veins strike north-northwest to north-northeast, with thickness varying from sub-metres to tens of metres.

1.5Exploration

Vizsla Silver commenced exploration on its Panuco Project in July 2019. This work has comprised geological mapping, rock geochemical sampling, geophysical surveys, and diamond drilling, and has outlined numerous targets for further testing.

Geological mapping and prospecting are key ongoing processes in exploring and understanding the geology of the Panuco Property. Rock and soil sampling is usually conducted in conjunction with geological mapping and prospecting. Overall, 3,777 rock samples have been collected from surface and underground exposures.

Geophysics has been a tool to help identify targets on the Panuco Property. Techniques used on the property include airborne magnetics producing first derivative, residual-signal, reverse to pole, and analytical signal maps. Electromagnetic surveys have also been conducted on the property. In addition to the magnetic surveys, Vizsla Silver has been collecting magnetic susceptibility readings from most of the drill core.

1.6Drilling

Since November 2019, twenty-two prospects have been drill-tested. They are Los Generales, Rosarito, Cuevillas, La Negra, Josephine, Ojo de Agua, La Pipa, Mariposa, Paloma, Honduras, San Carlos, Tajitos, Peralta, Broche del Oro, Aguita Zarca, and the seven prospects making up the Napoleon vein-Gallinero Sur, Gallinero, Napoleon, Limoncito, Papayo, Venadillo, and Estrella.

The Mineral Resource database contains 442 holes, for 124,610.9 m of HQ- and NQ-diameter drilling, with less PQ-diameter drilling. Vizsla Silver has continued to drill at the Project since the data cut off for the Mineral Resource estimate.

1.7Sample Preparation, Analysis, and Security

Vizsla Silver maintain their core logging facility and longer -term core storage area in Concordia, Sinaloa. Sample preparation is carried out at ALS in Zacatecas, and sample pulps are forwarded to ALS in North Vancouver for analysis. The ALS Zacatecas and North Vancouver facilities are ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 17025 certified.

Silver and base metals are analyzed using a four-acid digestion with an ICP finish as part of a geochemical suite (ALS Method Code ME-ICP61). Over-limit analyses for silver (>100 ppm), lead (>10,000 ppm), and zinc (>10,000 ppm) are re-assayed using an ore-grade four-acid digestion with AA finish (ALS Method Code OG62). For silver assays between 1500 ppm and 10,000 ppm, fire assay with gravimetric finish conducted on 30 g sample was used (ALS Method Code Ag-GRA21). Gold was assayed by 30 g fire assay with AA spectroscopy finish (ALS Method Code AuAA23). Gold over-limit values (>10 ppm) are retested with fire assay with gravimetric finish (ALS Method Code Au-GRA21).

1.8Data Verification

TMAC conducted data verification during the Mineral Resource estimate. This included the built-in checks associated with importing data into GEMS, random checks of database assays compared with assay certificates, and review of the QA/QC performance (Section 11). The data verification was supported by the site visit conducted between September 28, 2021 to October 1, 2021 (TMAC, 2021). Exploratory data analysis, as discussed in Section 14, is an additional component of the data verification process.

1.9Metallurgical Testwork

A metallurgical test program was developed on drill core samples taken from the Napoleon vein to support the project evaluation. The testwork was carried out from August 2021 to January 2022 by ALS Metallurgy located in Kamloops, Canada.

The drill core sample used in the testing program consisted of 330 kg from 108, half HQ drill core intervals. A total of 11 composite samples were prepared from the drill core and used in the metallurgical testwork.

The rationale for sample selection considered primary lithologies, spatial coverage and representation, contiguous mineralization, distribution of grade and potential dilution. The selected mineralized drill holes were within the area of the potentially minable material and are believed to be representative of the material with a cut off grade of 127 g/t silver (Ag) and 2.77 g/t gold (Au).

The testwork was performed to characterize the mineralization chemically and mineralogically, as well as to test various flowsheets and methods for concentration and extraction of metals. The testwork program undertaken included:

  • Chemical and mineralogical analysis of the feed samples

  • Preliminary comminution test

  • Investigation of metal pre-concentration through flotation

  • Investigation of cyanidation leaching for the whole ore and bulk concentrates from flotation tests

  • Study of gold and silver gravity concentration.

These tests provided a basic understanding of the response from the samples to the test program and will allow for process options to be further evaluated in future work.

Highlights of the conducted testwork include:

  • Gravity Recoverable Gold (GRG) testing yielded recovery of 29% Ag and 40% Au.

  • Open circuit rougher bulk flotation testing yielded recoveries of up to 93% for silver (Ag), 90% Au (Au), 94% lead (Pb), and 94% Zn (Zn).

  • Open circuit cleaner bulk flotation testing (with one cleaning stage) yielded recoveries of up to 89% Ag, 88% Au, 87% Pb, and 90% Zn, respectively.

  • Open circuit rougher sequential flotation testing has produced:

-Rougher lead concentrate with a recovery of 79% Ag; 80% Au; 93% Pb and 24% Zn, respectively.

-Rougher zinc concentrate with a recovery of up to 9% Ag; 8% Au; 3% Pb and 72% Zn, respectively

  • Open circuit cleaner bulk flotation testing (with one cleaning stage) has produced:

-Cleaner lead concentrate with a recovery of up to 71% Ag, 76% Au, 87% Pb, and 12% Zn.

-Cleaner zinc concentrate with a recovery of up to 8% Ag, 7% Au, 2% Pb, and 71% Zn.

  • Cyanide leaching of the bulk sulphide rougher concentrate exhibited recoveries of 80.5% for silver and 86.8% for the gold, respectively.

  • Direct cyanide whole ore leach tests yielded recoveries of up to 87% Ag and 93% Au after 48 hours retention time.

  • Cyanide leaching of the bulk sulphide rougher concentrate exhibited recoveries of 80.5% for silver and 86.8% for the gold, respectively.

Sequential lead/zinc flotation followed by cyanidation of a pyrite rougher concentrate have resulted in a combined flotation and leach recovery of 83% Ag and 87% Au, respectively.

1.10Mineral Resource Estimates

TMAC prepared a maiden Mineral Resource estimate for the Panuco Project consisting of Indicated and Inferred Resources. Mr. Tim Maunula, P.Geo., Principal Geologist for TMAC, was the QP responsible for the completion of the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate for the Panuco Project. The effective date of the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate is March 1, 2022.

The 2022 Mineral Resource estimate is based on drill-hole data provided by Vizsla Silver from surface diamond drill programs completed between 2019 and 2021. The cut-off date for assay data used in the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate was November 30, 2021.

The silver-gold-lead-zinc mineralization for the Panuco Project was modelled in four prospect areas of mineralization: Napoleon, Tajitos, Cordon del Oro and Animas. The mineralization was modelled in Seequent Leapfrog GEO v5.0 (Leapfrog). Grades were estimated within each mineralization wireframe separately using Geovia GEMS 6.8.3 Desktop (GEMS).

1.11Mineral Resource Statement

The maiden 2022 Mineral Resource estimate is reported in Table 1-1, as prepared by TMAC for the Panuco Project (effective date March 1, 2022).

Notes:Effective date for this Mineral Resource estimate is March 1, 2022.
Resources are presented undiluted and in situ and are considered to have reasonable prospects for economic extraction assuming metals prices of $20.7/oz Ag, $1,655/oz Au, $1,902/t Pb and $2,505/t Zn.
Mineral Resource estimate uses a break-even economic cut-off grade of 150 g/t AgEq based on costs from mines with similar mineralization. Assumed costs $45/t mining, $30/t processing $20/t G&A and recoveries of 93% for silver, 90% for gold, 94% for both lead and zinc.
Mineral Resource estimate reported from within envelopes accounting for mineral continuity.
Metal contents for silver, gold and silver-equivalent are presented in troy ounces (metric tonne x grade / 31.10348).
All figures are rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimates and totals may not add correctly.

The Mineral Resource estimates were classified according to the CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (CIM, 2014). The 2022 Mineral Resource estimate was reported at a 150.0 g/t AgEq cut-off grade for Mineral Resources which are amenable to underground extraction.

The cut-off grade used for the 2022 Mineral Resource estimates is 150.0 g/t AgEq based on Vizsla Silver's estimated break-even operating expenditure cost of US$95/t as outlined in Table 14-13. Assumed recoveries were 93% for silver, 90% for gold, and 94% for both lead and zinc. Mineral Resource estimates can be sensitive to the reporting cut-offs used.

1.12Recommendations

1.12.1Mineral Resource Recommendations

The maiden MRE and associated interpretated mineralization provides guidance for continued exploration of the Panuco Project. TMAC recommends the following work which can potentially improve upon the 2022 MRE:

  • Continue drilling on the four Prospect Areas targeting both infill to upgrade resource classification and step-out drilling to expand the Mineral Resource

  • Identify target areas in zones of mineralization outside of the four Prospect Areas to expand the Mineral Resource

  • Collect additional density samples of host lithologies and mineralization

  • Update topography using Lidar survey.

4Property Description and Location

4.1Mineral Title

The Panuco Project is in the Panuco-Copala mining district (the Property) in the municipality of Concordia, southern Sinaloa state, along the western margin of the Sierra Madre Occidental physiographic province in western Mexico. The Project is centred at 23 18' north latitude and 105 56' west longitude on map sheets F13A-37 and the Project location is shown in Figure 4-1. The Project comprises 105 approved mining concessions in nineteen blocks, covering a total area of 5,432.96 hectares (ha), and two applications for two mineral concessions covering 1,321.15 ha. The mineral concessions are held 100% by Vizsla Silver. The mineral concessions are presented in Table 4-1. The concessions are valid for 50 years, provided semi-annual property tax payments are made in January and July each year and if minimum annual investment requirements are met, or if there is minimum annual production equal to the amount of the annual investment requirement. The concession owner may apply for a second 50-year term.

Vizsla Silver also holds 4,103.45 ha on four concessions west of the Panuco Project, but these are outside of the scope of this Technical Report, as they are from 17 to 35 km away from the Project, and any potential mining operations would be stand-alone operations from the Panuco Project.

Since June 2020, the Ejido San Miguel Del Carrizal community granted a 2-month land access for exploration purposes, the current agreement is ready and is pending signature from the community authorities who have continued to provide access to the full 19,973.9529 ha of ejido lands where the Vizsla owns mining concessions. The 2-month permit is to be executed in the following days upon availability of the ejido authorities. There is no sign or evidence of any complication or negative outcome for such execution of the 2-month permit. An assembly for approval of the 30-year term agreement has been scheduled with the ejido authorities, and shall include exploration, and operation activities.

At the Ejido La Guasima, there has never been any agreement or permit granted for exploration purposes. Although the community has verbally granted access to their lands and is keen in engaging in a formal long-term agreement which is ongoing.

4.3Permits

Exploration and mining activities in Mexico are regulated by the General Law of Ecological Equilibrium and Environmental Protection (Ley General de Equilibrio Ecologico y Proteccion al Ambiente [LGEEPA]), and the Regulations Environmental Impact Assessment [REIA]). Laws pertaining to mining and exploration activities are administered by SEMARNAT]) and the Federal Attorney for Environmental Protection (Procuraduria Federal de Proteccion al Ambiente [PROFEPA]) enforces SEMARNAT laws and policy.

Activities that exceed specified limits require authorization from SEMARNAT and comprise the presentation of an environmental impact assessment (Manifestación de Impacto Ambiental [MIA]). SEMARNAT authorizes activities that fall below the specified threshold under Article 31 of the LGEEPA, and require the submission report known as an Informe Preventivo.

Exploration activities that are expected to generate impacts to the physical or social environment that are assessed as potentially of low significance by the regulators are regulated under Norma Oficial Mexicana-120-SEMARNAT-1997 (NOM-120-SEMARNAT-1997), and its subsequent modifications.

The Project is not included within any specially protected, federally designated, ecological zones known as Áreas Naturales Protegidas (ANP).

An Informe Preventivo is in force for the area of the Panuco ejido that permits drilling activities according with official notice DF/145/2.1. 1/0053/2020. 0060 dated January 21, 2020, issued by the Ministry of Environmental and Natural Resources to Minera Canam S.A. de C.V.

4.4Environmental Considerations

The Panuco Project is within the Panuco-Copala mining district and has been subject to extensive historical mining since approximately 1565. The mineralized bodies and the enclosing host rocks are anomalous in base and precious metals and have generated elevated metals values in sediments that extend well beyond known workings. The mineralized veins are characteristically low or moderate sulphidation but may have potential for acid rock drainage (ARD) and subsequent metal leaching. Vizsla Silver's Coco Mill and tailings storage facility are located on the Property; the mill is currently idle and the associated tailings storage facility is at capacity. There are two other plants also located on the Property but they are not under the control of Vizsla Silver. There are other old mine workings, excavations, and dumps on, and adjacent to, the Property. Some of the previous referenced disturbance is on mining lands held by Vizsla Silver, and other disturbance is on lands held by third parties.

Environmental impacts within the Project site result from historical activities, through current and intermittent operations of surrounding mines by third parties, and by informal and unauthorized miners working when companies are inactive. The impacts have been identified; however, they are incompletely documented in reports submitted to the Mexican government to attain authorization for Silverstone's exploration activities. Under the Mexican environmental and regulatory system these impacts due to historical activities are considered as pre-existing environmental liabilities that are deemed not significant and are acknowledged by regulators.

5Accessibility, Climate, Local Resources, Infrastructure, and Physiography

5.1Accessibility

The Panuco Project area is accessed from Mazatlán via Federal Highway 15 to Villa Union, then on Highway 40 for 56 km (one-hour drive). Highway 40 crosscuts the Project area and most of the vein structures. Toll Highway 40D also crosses the Project. In addition, local dirt roads provide access to most of the workings, but some require repairs or are overgrown, and four-wheel-drive vehicles are recommended in the wet season. Two power lines connecting Durango and Mazatlán cross the Project, with 400 kV and 240 kV capacities.

5.2Local Resources and Infrastructure

The Project is in the Concordia municipality, which has a population of approximately 27,000. Public services, including health clinics and police, are in the town of Concordia. Residents provide an experienced mine labour force. Contractors in Durango and Hermosillo have a strong mining tradition and provide the Project with a local source of knowledgeable labour and contract mining services. Drilling companies and mining contractors are available in Mazatlán, Durango, Hermosillo, Zacatecas, Fresnillo, and other areas of Mexico. The Project area is also used for cattle grazing, with limited agricultural use.

Vizsla Silver owns the 500 tonnes per day Coco mill on its property. In addition, there are some mineral processing plants held by third parties in the district that range from 200 to 700 tonnes per day in capacity.

5.3Climate

The climate is subtropical, with heavy rain in June through September. Summer temperatures reach 40°C, and the minimum winter temperature is approximately 10°C. The average rainfall is around 1,100 millimetres (mm), with the majority falling in the June to September rainy season. The area has sufficient water for exploration and mining purposes.

5.4Physiography

The Project area is in the Barranca sub-province of the Sierra Madre Occidental Physiographic province; mountain ranges characterize the province's topography up to 1,640 m, cut by steep gorges. Historic mine workings and mineralized structures on the Project generally occur between 500 and 1,000 m above sea level (asl). The principal drainages are the northerly trending Rio Baluarte east of the Property and the northeasterly trending Rio Presidio to the north. Dendritic intermittent streams feed the rivers. Project vegetation is mainly dry tropical forest comprising tropical bushes and shrubs at lower elevations and oak and pine forest at higher elevations. Animals found on the Project include the jaguar, coyote, deer, fox, rattlesnake, bat, guacamaya, iguana, and small rodents.

6History

Christopher and Sim (2008) and Robinson (2019) summarized the history of the Project. Capitan Francisco de Ibarra founded Concordia in 1565, and gold and silver veins in Panuco and Copala were first exploited in the centuries that followed. Although production has been carried out on the Panuco Project over the last 460 years, no production records are available to Vizsla Silver.

The first recorded modern mining activity commenced late in the 20th century. The Mineral Resources Council (Consejo de Recursos Minerales [CRM], the predecessor of the Mexican Geological Service [SGM]) carried out 1:50,000 scale mapping on map sheet F13-A37 and fine-fraction stream sediment sampling in 1999 (Avila-Ramirez, 1999). In 2003, the CRM published additional 1:50,000 scale mapping on map sheet F13-A36, and fine-fraction stream sediment sampling (Polanco-Salas et al., 2003). In 2019 the SGM conducted 1:50,000 scale geological mapping and fine-fraction stream sediment sampling on map sheet F13-A46 (Rosendo-Brito et al., 2019).

In 1989 the CRM optioned and sold several mineral concessions in the district, including to Grupo Minera Bacis (Bacis) in 1989. Bacis subsequently acquired claims from other parties active in the area, including Minas del Oro y del Refugio S.A. de C.V. Bacis drilled 19 holes totalling 2,822.8 m along the Animas-Refugio corridor, but only collar and survey records exist of this work.

From 1999 to 2001, Minera Rio Panuco S.A. de C.V. (Rio Panuco) explored the Animas-Refugio and Cordon del Oro structures culminating in 45 holes, for 8,358.6 m. Collar, downhole survey and limited assay records exist from this drilling. Drill-hole orientations mainly were orthogonal to the vein system. No geological drill logs, downhole survey data, downhole sample data or downhole geochemical assay data have been preserved. Graphic drill-hole sections are available, with limited downhole geology and geochemical data. The Rio Panuco drill data cannot be relied upon, as material data are unavailable for hole deviation, core recovery, assaying, or quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC).

Capstone Mining Corp. (Capstone) optioned the Bacis concessions in 2004 and carried out geologic mapping and sampling of the Animas-Refugio and Cordon del Oro structures. In 2005, Capstone drilled 15,374 m in 131 holes on down-dip extensions of the Clemens and El Muerto mines on the Animas-Refugio vein. In 2007, Capstone explored the La Colorada structure with surface mapping and sampling followed by 6,659 m of drilling in 64 holes.

Also, in 2007, Capstone transferred the claims of the Copala, Claudia, Promontorio, Montoros, and Martha projects to Silverstone Corp. (Silverstone). Capstone and Silverstone completed 21,641 m of drilling in 200 holes from 2005 to 2008 (Christopher and Sim, 2008).

Panuco Project Mineral Resource Estimate
Concordia, Sinaloa, Mexico

The Mineral Resource estimate (effective date of March 1, 2022) discussed in Section 14 supersedes historical, and past Mineral Resource estimates presented in this section. The historical information is relevant to provide context but is not current and should not be relied upon.

Christopher and Sim (2008) prepared two Mineral Resource estimates on the property for Silverstone on October 16, 2008; the following summary of the Mineral Resource estimates is based on their work. The Mineral Resource estimates were prepared for the La Colorada vein-manto and the La Pipa, El Muerto and Clemens portions of the Animas-Refugio Vein. Vizsla Silver is not relying on or treating any historical estimates as Mineral Resource estimates.

The Mineral Resource estimate for the Animas-Refugio vein used data from 125 drill holes totalling 12,765 m and 6,353 sample points within quartz vein, stockwork, or sulphide mineralization. A total of 3,421 drill-hole samples include bulk density data ranging from a minimum of 1.03 t/m3 to 3.88 t/m3 with a mean of 2.35 t/m3. Top cuts of 2,000 g/t Ag and 9.0 g/t Au were applied to sample data. The distance of influence of samples greater than 1,200 g/t Ag and 5.0 g/t Au was limited to a maximum of 10 m during grade interpolation. Block model bulk density estimates and grades for silver and gold were estimated using the inverse distance squared (ID2) interpolation method. Blocks within the zone of mineralization with at least three drill holes within an average distance of 25 m were classified as Indicated Mineral Resources. Blocks within the zone of mineralization within a maximum distance of 75 m from a drill hole were classified as Inferred Mineral Resources. Christopher and Sim (2008) estimated historical mineral production from the Animas-Refugio at approximately 40,000 tonnes, although the estimate was not supported by documentation. At Animas-Refugio, Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources were estimated using a base-case cut-off grade of 90 g/t Ag.

The Mineral Resource estimate for the La Colorada zone used data from 65 drill holes, 34 of which (totalling 3,466 m) tested the La Colorada zone. In all, 1,724 m of drilling and 2,124 sample points were within quartz vein, stockwork, or sulphide mineralization. In addition, 172 drill-hole samples include bulk density data ranging from a minimum of 2.01 t/m3 to 5.26 t/m3, with a length-weighted mean of 2.43 t/m3. Top cuts of 800 g/t Ag and 9 g/t Au were applied to sample data. Grades for silver and gold were estimated using ID2. Christopher and Sim (2008) estimated that historical mineral production extracted approximately 15% of the La Colorada Inferred Mineral Resource. They also established a series of cut-off grades for La Colorada based on silver-equivalent values. The silver equivalent (AgEq) was calculated using the following assumptions:

  • $14 per ounce silver

  • $800 per ounce gold

  • Silver-equivalent= Silver in g/t + (Gold in g/t) * 57.

At La Colorada, the Inferred Mineral Resources were estimated using a base-case cut-off grade of 20 g/t AgEq.

Tonnage assumes 15% of the resource extracted during historical mining activities. Vizsla Silver is not treating Christopher and Sim's (2008) Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource estimates as current Mineral Resources. The historical information is relevant to provide context but is not current and should not be relied upon.

Silverstone merged with Silver Wheaton Ltd. (Silver Wheaton) in 2009 and Silver Wheaton subsequently sold the shares of concession owner Silverstone to Mexican owners. The Silverstone owners mined out a portion of the Mineral Resource defined in 2008 over the next decade. Silverstone mined parts of the Clemens, El Muerto, La Pipa, Mariposa, El 40, and San Martin ore shoots until mining encountered the water table, preventing further mining. Local unauthorized miners are currently extracting the pillars in those ore shoots. Silverstone or unauthorized mining activity in the intervening years exploited most of the Mineral Resources estimated by Christopher and Sim (2008).

7Geological Setting

The Project is on the western margin of the Sierra Madre Occidental (SMO), a high plateau and physiographic province that extends from the U.S.A.-Mexico border to the east-trending Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt (Figure 7-1). The SMO is an igneous province recording continental magmatic activity from the Late Cretaceous to the Miocene; it has been divided into two main episodes. The first episode, termed the Lower Volcanic Complex (LVC), comprises an intermediate intrusive suite including the Sonora, Sinaloa, and Jalisco batholiths and associated volcanic components of the Tarahumara Formation in Sonora, and equivalent volcanic rocks in the Jalisco block. This period of magmatic activity is associated with the Laramide orogeny and occurred from 80 to 50 million years ago (Ma).

The second magmatic episode is dominated by rhyolitic ignimbrites that built one of the earth's largest silicic volcanic provinces and has been termed the Upper Volcanic Supergroup (UVS). These dominantly rhyolitic lavas were extruded in two episodes, from about 35 to 29 Ma and 24 to 20 Ma. The western part of the SMO is cut by normal fault systems associated with the Gulf of California rift zone and subsequent extensional basins that developed between about 27 and 15 Ma containing continental sedimentary rocks. The continental sedimentary rocks occur in a north-northwest-trending belt extending from western Sonora to most of Sinaloa.

The basement to the SMO is locally exposed in Sinaloa. It comprises folded metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks, deformed granitoids, phyllitic sandstones, quartzites, and schists ranging from Jurassic to Early Cretaceous (Montoya-Lopera et al., 2019).

In the broader Project area, the LVC comprises granite, granodiorite, and diorite intrusions of the Late Cretaceous to Early Paleocene San Ignacio and Eocene Piaxtla batholiths. Andesite lavas and ignimbrites cover these batholiths and are locally intruded by Eocene intrusive rocks. Intermontane basins separate the UVS and LVC in the Project area, and these basins are filled with continental conglomerates and sandstones. The UVS consists of two episodes of silicic ignimbrites and minor basaltic lavas and rhyolitic domes. An approximately 32 to 30 Ma sequence of ignimbrites occurs east toward Durango state, while the second, around 24 to 23.5 Ma, sequence is present further to the west, in Sinaloa.

The structure of the Project area is dominated by north-northwest-trending extensional faults of the Pueblo Nuevo-Tayoltita fault system. The extensional belt is associated with aligned rhyolite domes and Late Oligocene to Middle Miocene grabens (Figure 7-2). Figure 7-3 shows the regional geology of the area.

7.1Property Geology

The stratigraphic column in the Project consists predominantly of intrusive and volcanic rocks of intermediate composition of the LVC that have been overlaid and intruded by younger ignimbrites, domes, and dikes of felsic composition of the UVS. An approximately 9 by 3-km pluton of diorite to quartz diorite composition and lavas and tuffs of andesite composition are the main host lithologies of the epithermal veins in the district, although overlaying rhyolites of the UVS may locally host veins. Field work and interpretations conducted in the Project, suggest that the andesites of the LVC units are correlative with the Tarahumara formation of Sonora, and the ~77 to 69 Ma Socavon, Buelna and Portal members described in San Dimas. The rocks of the LVC in San Dimas are intruded by the Piaxtla batholith, dated at 49 to 44 Ma, whereas the age of epithermal mineralization has been constrained there between 41 and 37.8 (Enriquez et al, 2018 and Montoya et al, 2019). The diorite to quartz diorite pluton in Panuco has not been dated, but it is interpreted to be older than the Piaxtla intrusive, and correlative with the 64 Ma San Ignacio batholith dated by Montoya et al, (2019) in a locality west of San Dimas. Mineralization has not been dated in Panuco either, but it is possible that one or more epithermal pulses may be of late Eocene to early Oligocene age; this based on the observation that rhyolites of the UVS host veins locally. A stratigraphic column is in Figure 7-4.

Additionally, exposures of Carboniferous basement, comprised of metasediments (e.g., phyllites) have been recognized through tectonic/erosional "windows" in the region. The basement rocks are unconformably overlain by the LVC andesites of the Tarahumara Formation, that are subsequently intruded by the diorite pluton centered under Panuco. Locally, the diorite intrusion has been observed to contain clasts of the andesite in contact-breccias. Another intrusive phase of granodiorite to quartz-monzonite that may be coeval with the main diorite pluton, has been mapped in the footwall of the Animas-Refugio structure (Henry, 2003). Following deposition of the Tarahumara andesites, a quiescence period in volcanism, concomitant with uplift and erosion, favoured deposition of water-lain hyaloclastites composed of alternating sequences of rhyolite to andesite tuffs and volcaniclastics of Eocene age. These younger unit is believed to correlate with the Productive andesite member in San Dimas. The unit of hyaloclastites is hundreds of metres thick and has been intruded also by felsic stocks, plugs and dikes of the UVS.

Broadly four distinct deformation events of Laramide to Miocene age are recognized in the Project (Starling, 2019):

  • D1-early Laramide ENE compression and fold-thrust deformation (~80-60 Ma)

  • D2-late Laramide NNE compression and contractional deformation (~60-40 Ma)

  • D3-early post-Laramide N-S to NNE extension (~38-28 Ma)

  • D4-main stage Basin and Range ENE extension (~28-18 Ma)

Panuco Project Mineral Resource Estimate

Analysis of kinematic indicators in the Project conducted by Starling (2019), shows that epithermal mineralization occurred during a phase of north-northeast to northeast-southwest regional extension, which favoured the development of the following mineralized trends:

  • WNW (~120°N) extensional/normal faults orthogonal to D3 extension but also likely to have originated as shears under D1 and D2 compression (e.g., Animas, Cordon de Oro)

  • NNW to N-S (~160-180°N) sinistral shears that helped to accommodate D3 extension (e.g., San Carlos, Napoleon) and conjugate with

  • ENE (~060°N) dextral shears (e.g., San Antonio)

  • NNE (~020-040°N) steep tear faults formed sub-parallel to D3 extension.

Similarly, structural studies done in San Dimas, show major north-northwest-trending normal faults that define blocks that have been tilted to the east-northeast or west-southwest. The fault-tilted blocks are interpreted to be the result of a northeast-southwest extension like that observed in Panuco.

The extensional event in the Project was probably accompanied by a large hydrothermal event that developed the district's epithermal veins. The hydrothermal event should have been sufficiently strong and long-lived to develop veins with multiple orientations in Panuco. The extensive hydrothermal activity developed also magmatic pebble-dykes, although the paragenesis of the dykes with respect to mineralization has not been established. However, the pebble dykes appear to be concomitant with the widespread dissemination of fine-grained pyrite into the volcanic units. A late event of magmatism and extension favoured the emplacement of post-mineralization rhyolite dikes along some of the mineralized structures. These dikes appear to be synchronous with D4 extensional deformation, as they are locally dissected and/or necked. Finally, latter andesite dykes intruded the whole column; these dikes do not show evidence of post-mineral faulting and are recognized as the youngest expression of magmatic activity in the Project.

Figure 7-4:Stratigraphic Columns for the Project Area (after Montoya-Lopera et al., 2019)

On the Project, it is interpreted that north-northeast extension developed a series of west-northwest-trending veins seen in Figure 7-5. It is also noted that the low angle of some of these veins, and tilting of rhyolites in the hanging wall of the Animas-Refugio structure, suggest that many of the veins were listric faults that reactivated from Laramide thrust faults, as seen in Figure 7-6. This geometry indicates the potential for multiple second-order, subparallel veins in the hanging walls of these west-northwest-trending veins. The mineralized shoots associated with these listric normal faults will tend to be subhorizontal in form. The rocks in the Project may have been tilted to the southwest, leading to veins in the east part of the project having been more deeply eroded and exposed at a deeper level. Also, veins in the west part of the district may then have been exposed to shallower levels with weaker surface anomalies and mineralization occurring at a deeper level than in the eastern part of the Project. Late- to post-mineral north-northwest, north-northeast, and east-northeast steep faults have partitioned the structural corridors, and the geometry and locations of economic veining in each block may be distinct from neighbouring blocks.

7.2Mineralization

Mineralization on the Panuco Property comprises several epithermal quartz veins. Vizsla Silver and previous workers have traced approximately 75 km of cumulative vein strike length. Individual vein corridors are up to 7.6 km long and range from decimetres to greater than 10 m wide. Veins have narrow envelopes of silicification, and local argillic alteration are commonly marked by clay gouge. More distal alteration comprises propylitic alteration as chlorite.

The primary mineralization corridors comprise hydrothermal quartz breccia with grey silica in the matrix and white or grey quartz clasts. The grey colour is due to very fine-grained disseminated sulphides, presumed to be mainly pyrite and acanthite. Vizsla Silver has discriminated several hydrothermal breccias with grey quartz occurring more commonly at lower levels of the fault structures. More barren, white, quartz-rich breccias occur in the upper part of the mineralized zone. Locally, mineralized zones are cut by narrow, banded quartz veins with thin, dark argentite/acanthite and pyrite bands. Fine-grained pyrite is disseminated in the quartz in the higher-grade zones, with rare fine-grained sphalerite and galena. Bladed quartz pseudomorphs after calcite have been noted at several locations within the fault zone and indicate boiling conditions. Later quartz veinlets have cut all the mineralized zones with a mix of white quartz and purple amethyst. The amethyst is related to mixing near-surface waters as the hydrothermal system is collapsing, as has been noted at the nearby San Dimas district (Montoya-Lopera et al., 2019).

The Mineral Resource includes eight mineralized vein systems: the Napoleon, Josephine, Napoleon hanging wall veins; the Tajitos, Vein 3, and Copala (Tajitos HW) veins; the San Antonio vein; and the Rosarito vein. These trends are west to east within the Napoleon, Cinco Senores, Cordon del Oro, and Animas-Refugio corridors. Table 7-1 presents a general description of the geometry of the seven veins comprising the bulk of the mineralization. The bulk of the resource veins strike north-northwest to north-northeast, with thicknesses varying from 1.5 m to over 10 m. Figure 7-7 shows the location of the veins included in the Mineral Resource Estimate.

Figure 7-7:Panuco Project Claims Showing Known Veins, Including the Four Resource Areas Comprising
Eight Veins Included in the Mineral Resource Estimate

7.2.1Animas-Refugio Corridor

The Animas-Refugio structural corridor is a significant fault zone central in the Project area; it hosts the largest number of historical and current workings (Figure 7-8 and Figure 7-9) and includes the Rosarito vein reported in the current MRE. Overall, the corridor trends northwest-southeast and dips moderately southwest. Typically, the fault zone that defines this corridor has a clay fault-gouge contact in either the hanging wall and or the footwall contact and ranges from a few metres to over 20 m wide. It has a strike length of over 7.2 km, and extends from the San Carlos mine in the southeast to the claim boundary in the northwest. Historical references note that the corridor continues to the southeast of the San Carlos mine. Ten main mineralized shoots have been exploited along this corridor; from southeast to northwest these are San Carlos, Clemens, El Muerto, La Pipa, Mariposa, El 40, San Martin, El 150, El 200, Rosarito, and La Bomba. The oldest of the workings dates to the 1500s. Rosarito is included in the MRE in the Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource class categories. In addition to the main, moderately dipping, mineralized zone there are numerous secondary mineralized structures, including a hanging wall splay at the Mariposa mine and the Paloma vein.

The Animas-Refugio structural corridor was first drilled by Minera Bacis in the late 1990s, but no details of this work are available. MRP subsequently drilled the corridor between 1999 and 2001, and Silverstone between 2007 and 2008.

The hanging wall of the fault zone is composed of a package of water-lain volcanic rocks with interlayered andesite tuffs and flows and with rhyolite tuffs higher up in the sequence. Quenched clast textures in the tuffs indicate that they are hyaloclastites. A fine-grained diorite has been observed at lower levels within the hanging wall section. The footwall package consists of fine- to medium-grained grained diorite to granodiorite.

The Animas-Refugio corridor is a reactivated northwest- to west-northwest-trending normal fault that dips to the southwest (Starling, 2019). It is likely the reactivation of a Laramide-aged thrust fault and as the dip shallows at depth. The structure is steeper where topography has preserved the upper portions of the system. The normal fault defining the Animas-Refugio corridor is interpreted as the east side of a graben structure, with the Cordon del Oro trend comprising the west side of the graben. The graben structure has been cut by north-northeast- and north-northwest-trending subvertical faults that helped to accommodate extension during the main mineralizing phase. Slickensides on these cross faults show a shallow to moderate dip to the southwest, with minimal offset. The fault splays accommodate extension along the fault and do not offset the main trend of the Animas-Refugio structure. These cross faults appear to have provided local boundaries within the fault zone that control the intrusion of post-mineral andesite dykes.

Related to the Animas-Refugio corridor are a series of hanging-wall splays, such as the San Martin splay near the Mariposa mine, the Paloma vein proximal to the Rosarito and La Cuevilla veins, and Nieves coming off of La Bomba. These splays are near vertical, and subparallel to the Animas-Refugio trend, and their intersection zones with the main structure are attractive exploration targets. These veins vary from narrow 1 m-wide veins to zones over 4 m wide, and have been mined extensively down to the 575 masl level.

The Rosarito veining is re-brecciated, white, quartz vein material with white silica cement with minor and variable amounts of grey quartz patches and minor sulphides. The vein strikes to the southeast, dipping 35° to the southwest, and is traceable 200 m on the surface. The average width from mapping is 4 m, with pinching and swelling between 2 and 25 m wide, while drilling intervals average 2.13 m.

7.2.2Cordon del Oro Corridor

The Cordon del Oro structural corridor is an east-dipping normal fault zone in the west-central portion of the Project area that trends roughly north-northwest and dips moderately to the east (Figure 7-11). The mineral resource estimate contains the San Antonio structure, within the Cordon del Oro corridor, in the Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource categories.

The Cordon del Oro structure has a small number of historical workings. This fault typically has clay fault-gouge contacts that range from metre scale to over 15 m wide. To date, the structure has been traced by mapping for approximately 7.6 km from the Anonal mine in the southeast to the Santa Rosa plant in the northwest. The Cordon del Oro structure is likely the west side of a graben, with the Animas vein defining the east margin. Only five mineralized shoots have been exploited along the main Cordon del Oro corridor; from the southeast to the northwest, these are Peralta, La Cobriza, Mojocuan 1, 2, and Mojocuan 4. Four additional mineralized shoots occur along the San Antonio vein Los Generales, Coralillo, San Antonio, and La Venada.

The Cordon del Oro corridor is not known to have been drilled, and mining completed to date occurred pre-Vizsla Silver, with workings of less than 100 metres in length. Most mining extended only about 10 to 30 m below the surface, and the deepest of the historical mining appears to have reached about 60 m below the surface. Only the Coralillo mine has more than one level of development and was mined to about 60 m along approximately 150 m of strike.

At lower elevations, the Cordon del Oro structure cuts a fine-grained diorite that is weakly to strongly magnetic and corresponds with a magnetic anomaly in regional airborne magnetic surveys. The structure cuts dacite and granodiorite in the Mojocuan 1 and Mojocuan 2 mine areas (Figure 7-11). In the central part of the vein corridor and along the San Antonio splay, the structure cuts a series of shallowly west-dipping rhyolite tuffs and andesite flows at higher elevations. Local rhyolite and andesite dykes intrude on the host rocks and along the mineralized structure. A quartz porphyry and granite porphyry are noted in underground workings at the Mojocuan 1 and Mojocuan 2 mines.

The Cordon del Oro structure is interpreted as a north- to north-northwest-trending normal fault on the west side of a graben subjected to repeated movement and later cross-faulting (Starling, 2019). The San Antonio structure is an east-west-trending set of subparallel faults that dip mainly to the south and is interpreted as a hanging wall splay of the main Cordon del Oro structure.

The San Antonio vein is an east striking, moderately dipping structure with 350 m of interpreted strike length and 300 m of down-dip extension. The average width is generally 1.5 to 3 m, with pinching and swelling between 1 and 3.5 m.

7.2.3Cinco Señores and Napoleon Corridor

The Cinco Señores and Napoleon structural corridors comprise two subparallel fault zones in the western portion of the Project area that trend north-northwest, with sub-vertical dips (Figure 7-12 and Figure 7-13). The Napoleon corridor contains the Napoleon Main, Josephine, and Napoleon Hanging wall veins, which together constitute a significant portion of the Mineral Resource. Moreover, the current Mineral Resource estimate includes the Cinco Senores veins of Tajitos, Copala, and Vein3 structures.

The Cinco Señores and Napoleon structural corridors host the second-largest concentration of historical workings on the property, some of which date to the 1500s. The two structural corridors' faults range from a few metres to over 12 m wide. Cinco Señores has a strike length of around 2.6 km, from the El Tajito mine in the southeast to El Cajon in the northwest. Ten mineralized structures are present along the Cinco Señores corridor: El Tajito, Copala Vein, Vein3, La Tacoacha, Santa Ana, Santana, Descubridora, Cinco Señores 01, Cinco Señores 03, La Manzanilla, and El Cajon. The Cinco Señores structure comprises a single, narrow fault zone with quartz veining approximately 1 to 2 m wide. One moderately northeast-dipping notable splay off this structure was mined out at La Descubridora, west of the town of Copal (Figure 7-14).

The Napoleon and Cinco Señores structural corridors are interpreted as north- to north-northwest-trending strike-slip faults that have been reactivated and subjected to later cross-faulting (Starling, 2019). Later cross-faulting, likely related to basin and range extension, gives the overall effect of post-mineralization dextral transtensional displacement across the east-west- to west-northwest-trending reactivated faults.

The veins are hosted in a fine-grained, weakly to strongly magnetic diorite at lower elevations. At higher elevations, particularly in the central part of the vein corridors, the structures are hosted in a series of shallowly west-dipping rhyolite tuffs and andesite flows.

The Napoleon vein comprises a fissure vein that is subparallel set of faults about 20 m apart that host quartz veins and breccias along the faults, and intermittent dilational fault jogs between the faults. At least 13 main mineralized shoots have been exploited along the Napoleon corridor. From south to the north, these are: Napoleon Sur (Ojo de Agua), El Gallinero, Napoleon 07, Napoleon 05, Napoleon 04, El Hundido, La Higuera, Limoncito, Los Rieles, El Papayo, El Agua Prieta, Aguajes, and La Estrella. The subparallel faults and dilational jogs are in the southern portion of the structure; the northern part comprises a single fissure vein. Moreover, local horsetail splays with short strike lengths occur off the main system. Mineralization in the Napoleon vein is traced along 2,500 m of strike length and over 400 m of depth. The system is tilted 20° to 25° to the south. The tilting explains the lower surface values and thinner widths to the south, indicating the upper portion of the original epithermal system.

The Josephine vein and Napoleon Hangingwall vein are within the Napoleon corridor and, along with the Napoleon Main vein, constitute the bulk of the Mineral Resource contained herein. Josephine is a sub-vertical vein west and subparallel to the Napoleon Main vein and was discovered in 2021 in drill hole NP-21-132. Josephine widths are generally between 1 and 3 m, with semi-massive sulphide mineralization indicating higher grades. Josephine is traced 1.5 km along strike, and tested roughly 500 m down dip. The Napoleon Hangingwall vein runs subparallel to Napoleon Main to the east at a moderate dip and is generally 2 to 3 m wide.

The Tajitos, Vein3, and Copala (Tajitos HW) vein structures are within the Cinco Senores corridor and are a component of the Mineral Resource estimate given in this Technical Report. The Tajitos epithermal vein is traced over 1.5 km of strike, and has been tested 500 m down dip. The vein pinches and swells from sub-metre to 10 m widths, but generally the width is between 2 and 3 m. The vein is composed of massive white quartz to locally banded quartz, usually brecciated and sealed by white quartz. Locally there are distinct hydrothermal breccias with grey quartz in the matrix and clasts, with generally higher grades. Within these quartz-rich phases, there are sometimes silica pseudomorphs after bladed calcite, indicating the zone was actively boiling during mineral deposition. It is also not unusual to see purple amethyst quartz near these same zones; this represents the potential of later mixing of Fe-rich meteoric waters. Locally there are zones with pink rhodochrosite.

The Vein3 structure is west-striking with a moderate dip to the north. Average length intercepts are 3.3 m, and the vein is generally 2.5 to 3 m wide.

The Copala (Tajitos HW) structure is a sub-horizontal vein striking north and situated at the northeastern extent of Tajitos, near the town of Copala. The system has been intersected downhole up to 70 to 80 m, with individual drill-hole intercepts up to 83.1 m wide. The vein is thinner to the south where it is 2 to 5 m thick and swells towards the north up to ~80 m. The average interval length found in drill holes is 5.4 m. The Copala (Tajitos HW) vein has been traced over 650 m along strike and 350 m down-dip extension.

7.2.4Other Mineralized Structures

Numerous other structures on the Panuco claims are actively being explored. The following subsections outline the geology of a few of these earlier-stage prospective structures. Figure 7-15Figure 7-15 shows the location of the prospects described below, among others.

Figure 7-15:Panuco Project Area with Veins and Surface Sampling

La Colorada

The La Colorada silver and gold deposit is about 1 km northwest of the village of Copala. Christopher and Sim (2008) described the geology of La Colorada as a manto-and-feeder vein system hosted in andesite, overlying a large diorite intrusive. The manto is cut by a north-striking rhyolite dyke that may be associated with a rhyolite flow dome on the northwest flank of the manto. The veins and manto in the La Colorada area are bounded by northwest-striking faults. A keel marking the thickest manto development strikes north, parallel to felsic dyking in this area. This north-south trend was interpreted as the result of a combination of strike-slip movements on northwest- and northeast-striking orthogonal faults.

Concordia, Sinaloa, Mexico

The La Colorada vein system occurs along a pronounced northwest-striking lineament that bisects the largest of a series of circular features that Christopher and Sim (2008) interpret as caldera margins.

Copala Town Area

Mapping in 2020 identified several major structures (Agua Zarca, Cueravaca, Huaco) beneath the town of Copala that were mined extensively in the past down to at least 100 metres depth. A few of the old shafts have been backfilled and built over, resulting in damage to buildings as the backfill settles lower into the workings. Four main structures trending northwest have been mapped thus far, although further mapping is likely impossible due to the presence of the town. These structures now appear to be part of the low-angle Colorada vein system. Cerillo vein on the east side of the town is also a northwest-trending and shallowly northeast-dipping vein. The El Estadio vein is a vertical structure to the north of Cerrillo that shows potential for drill testing. Mapping has identified other veins near Cerrillo and El Estadio that have minimal exposure; their extent and orientation are speculative.

El Batel Corridor

The El Batel mine area is in the northeast portion of the Vizsla Silver claim block at elevations between 1,100 and 1,400 masl. It is composed of a central northwest-trending vein 2 to 4 m wide, dipping moderately to the northeast, and hosted in a package of andesitic tuffs. There is minimal outcrop, and most of the samples collected in the area are actually from hanging wall splays. A series of hanging-wall splays are also of low angle, subparallel to the main vein, suggesting a tension release-style vein.

Broche del Oro

The Broche de Oro Corridor is a northeast-trending vein system in the northeast portion of the Vizsla Silver claim block. Currently, the structure has been traced over about 4,300 m of strike length; however, only 40% of it is on Vizsla Silver-controlled claims. The longest segment held by Vizsla Silver, at 980 m, is the Broche de Oro area. The old Broche de Oro mine is at the bottom of a deep canyon with over 300 vertical metres of andesite and dacite tuffs overlying a diorite intrusive. The diorite is likely different from the main microdiorite as the microdiorite is magnetic, and the Broche de Oro area is in a magnetic low. At the old mine level, the vein is still hosted in the andesitic tuffs and shows widths from 2 to 4 m. The dip of the central segment of the vein is to the southeast, while several other subparallel veins have dips to the northwest, suggesting there may be a small horst block in that area, or that the other veins are remnant footwall splays. The Manteada vein is another perpendicular structure in that area that underwent considerable past mining to the north of Broche de Oro. The Manteada vein has been mapped for 1,300 m north-northwest from the Broche de Oro workings, dipping moderately to the west, and widths from 2 to over 5 m. It appears to have been mined near its northern end, where it either changes strike or intersects the northeast-trending San Ramon vein. The Manteada vein textures are massive white quartz with very little sulphide, and local patches of bladed calcite psuedomorphed with silica. Many outcrops show a brecciated vein, while only a few exhibit the massive white silica with bladed calcite.

La Galeana

The Galeana vein is likely a significant splay structure off the longer San Francisco-Broche de Oro-Nacaral vein system that trends north-northeast some 1,400 m to the southwest of the Nacaral mine. The vein saw three different past workings spread out over 80 m of vertical relief. The principal working was the upper one, where a shaft was sunk directly on the vein, but has since collapsed. Several small splays (1 to 10s of metres long) come off the main vein here, with the main one being only 1 to 2 m wide. A broader, subparallel, 4- to 5 m-wide vein, was some 140 m to the northeast of the collapsed shaft area.

7.3Structural Controls

The relationship of the long-term structural history of project area and the various mineralization pulses show mineralization associated with the late-Laramide deformation; that deformation event results in west-northwest thrusts and conjugate north-northwest to north-south dextral and east-northeast sinistral shears and are associated with porphyry-driven fluids. Some structures like Napoleon likely originated as late-Laramide conjugate shears, and within the diorite mass acted as zones of pre-existing weakness before the D3 phase of extension. These conjugate structures are the steep components to the low-angle Colorada-type structures and helped to accommodate shortening across the massive diorite block. When D3 began and epithermal mineralization commenced, some of these structures were reactivated. Napoleon is thought to have reactivated as a sinistral transtensional shear. Parts of the Napoleon vein will likely be the older vein/shear (seen as the north-northeast splays and north-northeast-trending segments) while other parts will be the younger epithermal veining with ore shoots on north-northwest strike-swings and at west-northwest splays. Therefore, locally the vein may be a thinner and lower grade or thicker and higher grade. Because the structures have a significant component of strike-slip motion, there will be a natural pinching-and-swelling.

Tajitos is interpreted as a conjugate to the north-south trending Napoleon vein, exhibiting an initial sinistral transpressional shear with later reactivation as a dextral tensional shear. The diorite emplacement along the east-northeast-trending central fault zone likely originated during the early-Laramide, or as an arc transfer-fault (later reactivated as the Tajitos system). Many of the structures hosted in the diorite show potential to have been reactivated and are more consistent than in the overlying cover andesitic and rhyolitic volcanics.

7.4Alteration

The most widespread alteration is prominent propylitic alteration, defined by chlorite that extends 50 to 100 m peripheral to main fluid conduits. Silicification and minor quartz veinlets are present immediately adjacent to the controlling fault structures. The fault structures host mineralization comprising distinct quartz veins and moderate-to-strong pervasive silicification with associated crackle breccia veining. The upper and lower boundaries of mineralized zones are occasionally within faults and are usually marked by clay gouge zones with common milled clasts. The milled clasts comprise wall rock and white quartz vein fragments, indicating that these faults experienced significant movement post-mineralization. The footwall contact of the fault zone commonly has a clay gouge contact, and local crackle brecciation and silicification that overprints earlier propylitic alteration in the diorite to granodiorite.

7.5Mineral Petrology

In 2021 Vizsla Silver commissioned Applied Petrologic Services & Research, Wanaka, New Zealand, to carry out a petrographic and fluid inclusion study on 14 samples (one from each of Animas and Cordon del Oro, three from Tajitos, and nine from Napoleon) (Coote, 2021a). Coote's findings indicate sustained hydrothermal fluid flow evidenced by fracture-fill multi-stage silica and breccia cement due to penetrative and long-lasting structurally focussed fracturing and brecciation. Evidence of boiling conditions-an environment conducive to epithermal precious metal mineralization-is indicated by fluid inclusion assemblages. Further evidence of boiling conditions is the presence of Adularia, bladed quartz pseudomorphs after calcite and colloform vein banding of the fracture-filled and locally brecciated vein assemblages. Bladed carbonate, and ferrous-, manganoan-, and calcitic-rich carbonates proximal to drusy quartz also indicate a successive emplacement of later hydrothermal fluids evidencing a long-lasting system for emplacement of epithermal veins.

The following petrologic features apply to the Animas, Cordon del Oro, Cinco Senores and Napoleon vein corridors. They are important in defining base- and precious-metal mineralization of the low-sulphidation, epithermal environment:

  • Sphalerite, galena, chalcopyrite, tennantite/tetrahedrite and minor amounts of bornite comprise base-metal sulphide and sulphosalt mineralogy enclosed by interstitial multi-phase, mosaic-drusy quartz and pyrite

  • Very-fine to ultra-fine-grained chalcopyrite is concentrated as inclusions within sphalerite margins and partly defining internal zoning.

  • Supergene chalcocite and covellite locally replace chalcopyrite, bornite, and tennantite/tetrahedrite.

Furthermore, multiple stages of base-metal sulphides and sulphosalts are present, filling cavities and fractures within brittle, deformed pyrite and mosaic-drusy quartz, and which in places form cemented-to-brecciated pyrite. Galena, chalcopyrite, and tennantite/tetrahedrite are present, filling and cementing fracturing and brecciation of coarser-grained, and locally more-voluminous sphalerite. Multiple stages of base-metal sulphides are ductile-to-brittle deformed, and recrystallized in relation to tectonic and hydrothermal overprinting.

Precious-metal mineralogy as acanthite, proustite, native gold/electrum, and native silver occur in close-spatial and interpreted-temporal association with base-metal sulphides and sulphosalts. The native gold/electrum is interstitial to and occurs as inclusions in mosaic-drusy quartz. Furthermore, pyrite and base-metal sulphides/sulphosalts occur as intergrowths with acanthite, and less abundantly proustite; the latter is best represented in the Animas, Cordon del Oro, and Cinco Senores vein corridor rock.

Additionally, Cinco Senores hosts acanthite and native gold/electrum occurring interstitial to fluorite and mosaic quartz in fracture-fill/breccia cement assemblages. Native silver also fills cavities and microfractures within mosaic quartz. Native gold is also relict as intergrowths and inclusions within pyrite altered to supergene goethite and hematite in rock from Cinco Senores.

Coote (2021b) also conducted a fluid inclusion study using microthermometric data from the Animas, Cordon del Oro, Cinco Senores, and Napoleon vein corridors. Conclusions drawn from petrographically defined fluid-inclusion assemblages within fracture-fill/breccia cement suggest epithermal temperatures. Furthermore, the data provided evidence to determine low-salinities of hydrothermal fluid flow resulting in precious- and base-metal mineralization of the Panuco District. The temperatures associated with metal-bearing fluids evidenced with the inclusion assemblages range from 196°C to 293°C. Moreover, hydrothermal fluid salinity was 1.9 to 3.1 wt% NaCl-equivalent across the different vein corridors.

The temperature and salinity evidence places the Panuco veining in the low-sulphidation category of epithermal systems; however, the base-metal sulphides, manganoan carbonate, and rhodonite rich fluids suggest perhaps the system is in the intermediate epithermal category.

8Deposit Types

The geologic setting of the Panuco Project is prospective for several types of mineral deposits. Late Cretaceous to Paleocene batholiths that intrude Tarahumara Formation rocks that form part of the SMO are prospective for porphyry copper and molybdenum deposits. Late Cretaceous plutons that intrude Guerrero arc limestone are favourable for developing gold-rich and polymetallic skarns and replacement deposits. However, the mineralization best developed and explored on the property comprises epithermal silver and gold veins associated with extensional faulting within the SMO volcanic arc.

8.1Epithermal Systems

Epithermal gold deposits consist of fissure veins and disseminations of gold, silver, and base metals formed within 1.0 to 1.5 km of the Earth's surface. Most epithermal deposits form as open-space filling of faults resulting in vein deposits. Still, disseminated mineralization, gold, in particular, may occur as a replacement of permissive host rocks (disseminated deposits). Due to their development in the upper portions of the earth's crust, most of the epithermal precious metal deposits have been preserved in Tertiary volcanic rocks, but Jurassic and Paleozoic examples also exist. They occur in extensional settings in volcanic island and continent margin arcs and within continental volcanic environments. Epithermal deposits have been classified according to the nature of the mineralizing fluids and the forms and textures of the mineralization into two main classes, high and low-to-intermediate sulphidation. The Panuco Project exhibits characteristics of the low-to-intermediate sulphidation class of epithermal deposits.

Historically, epithermal gold and silver deposits are an important part of the world's precious metal budget. Approximately 6% and 16% of the world's gold and silver have been produced from epithermal deposits. These deposits are significant in Mexico. Mineable epithermal vein deposits range from 50,000 to more than 2,000,000 tonnes in size, with typical grades ranging from 1 to 20 g/t Au and 10 to 1,000 g/t Ag. Locally exceptional, or "bonanza" grades above 20 g/t Au can be important contributors to many gold deposits. Lead and zinc are also important contributors to epithermal deposits' low- and intermediate-sulphidation classes. Veins that host mineralization are about several kilometres long; however, economic mineralization is present in plunging ore shoots with dimensions of tens of metres by hundreds of metres or more. Single veins commonly host multiple ore shoots. The wide range of tonnage and grade characteristics make these deposits attractive targets for small and large mining companies.

In low- and intermediate-sulphidation deposits, both precious and base metals are transported in magma derived hydrothermal fluids that subsequently mix with meteoric water as they move into shallow levels of the crust, resulting in cool and relatively dilute fluids. Mineral deposition in the epithermal environment occurs due to complex processes of fluid boiling and mixing that involve cooling, decompression, and degassing. Typical mineralization sites are near-surface hydrothermal systems, ranging from hot springs at the surface to deeper, structurally, and permeability-focussed fluid flow zones approximately 1,500 m below the surface. The zone where these fluids boil is the favourable location for gold deposition, with silver and base-metal mineralization occurring beneath the boiling zone.

Quartz veins are typical hosts for low and intermediate sulphidation mineralization, and these veins have characteristic alteration assemblages that indicate temperatures of deposition of between 100°C and 300°C. These alteration assemblages include quartz, carbonates, adularia white phyllosilicates, and barite in the veins; illite, adularia, smectite, mixed-layer clays, and chlorite proximal to the vein walls; and distal chlorite, calcite, epidote, and pyrite more peripherally. Also, unmineralized, but related, steam-heated argillic alteration and silica sinters may be present above, or above and laterally from, the veins.

The vein alteration assemblages and steam-heated argillic alteration can be effectively targeted using hyperspectral remote sensing techniques. Figure 8-1 shows the prevalence of these systems in western and central Mexico.

Vein textures are also important guides for targeting low- and intermediate-sulphidation mineralization. Quartz commonly occurs with cockade and comb textures, as breccias; as microcrystalline, chalcedonic, and colloform banded quartz; and as bladed or lattice quartz. Bladed or lattice quartz forms by replacing bladed calcite formed from a boiling fluid, and is a diagnostic indication of the level of boiling in a vein.

Ore minerals include pyrite, electrum, gold, silver, argentite, acanthite, silver sulphosalts, sphalerite, galena, tetrahedrite, chalcopyrite, and/or selenide minerals. In alkalic host rocks, tellurides, vanadium mica (roscoelite), and fluorite may be abundant, with lesser molybdenite. These mineralized systems have strong geochemical signatures in rocks, soils, and sediments and Au, Ag, Zn, Pb, Cu, As, Sb, Ba, F, Mn, Te, Hg, and Se may be used to vector to mineralization.

Figure 8-2 shows the associated alteration components of epithermal systems and mineralization.

9Exploration

Vizsla Silver commenced exploration on its Panuco Project in July 2019. This work has comprised geological mapping, rock geochemical sampling, geophysical surveys, and diamond drilling, and has outlined numerous targets for further testing.

9.1Geological Mapping

Geological mapping and prospecting is a key ongoing process in exploring and understanding the geology of the Panuco Property. Mapping is conducted on a reconnaissance scale with detailed scale testing. Mappers generally use 1:1000 scale and in special outcrops 1:500 scale. An example of a 1:40,000 scale geological map is seen in Figure 9-1.

9.2Rock and Soil Geochemistry

Rock and soil sampling is usually conducted in conjunction with geological mapping and prospecting. Geologists take chip, float, outcrop samples (including channels), and underground sampling where it is safe to do so. Table 9-1 outlines the rock and soil geochemistry sampling done by Vizsla Silver.

Overall, 3,777 rock samples have been collected from surface and underground exposures. The lithology, alteration, and structure of outcrop and underground exposures are mapped to determine controls on mineralization. To the degree possible, samples are then oriented perpendicular to mineralized structures and variations in mineralization, and are sampled separately. At least one sample on either side of the mineralized structure is also collected. Samples are collected as continuous chip channel, with minimum sample lengths ranging from 30 cm to 1.5 m. The sample length and the width of the chipped channel, typically 10 to 15 cm, is recorded along with the sample's estimated true width.

Sampling can be carried out by geologists or trained field assistants under the direct supervision of a geologist. All the chips of the channel sample are collected on a tarp, and once the whole sample has been collected, the sampled material is then mixed by folding the tarp in half in four different directions, rolling the material over itself and thus homogenizing the sample material. One quarter of that material is then poured into a labelled sample bag that also contains the uniquely labelled sample ticket. In the case of field duplicates, a second quarter of that sample (from the opposite quadrant) is then poured into a second labelled sample bag with a second unique and uniquely labelled sample ticket. Bags are sealed with a plastic cinch cable tie, and sample bags are transported to Vizsla Silver's secured warehouse. No directors or officers of the company are involved in sample collection or preparation.

9.3Geophysics

Geophysics has been a tool to help identify targets on the Panuco Property. Silverstone flew helicopter airborne magnetics in 2016 and Vizsla Silver has conducted airborne and ground surveys since 2019.

Silverstone flew the Panuco Property for helicopter airborne magnetics in 2016 . The main magnetic high corresponded well with the mapped microdiorite and showed potential offset. The microdiorite is the main host rock in the Napoleon area, but is covered by an andesite-to-rhyolitic tuff package in the other vein areas. Figure 9-2 shows the airborne reduced-to-pole (RTP) magnetic survey results from 2016 with interpreted offset in the microdiorite.

In spring 2021 a drone survey over 205-line km, at 50 m line spacings and a nominal height of 50 m was conducted. The test area was over the Napoleon trend, and thus the line orientation was chosen to be at 45° to try and intersect the vein corridor orthogonally.

Four different products were delivered from the drone magnetic survey: an RTP map, an analytical signal (AS) map, a residual-signal (RES) map and a first vertical derivative (1D) map. The results from the RTP fit well with Vizsla Silver's mapping of the microdiorite. While the concept of the Napoleon vein being in a magnetic low trend is not completely clear in the RTP data, it becomes more apparent in the AS data, as those tend to plot the magnetic features clearly over their source regions. Electromagnetic surveys have also been conducted on the Property.

In addition to the magnetic surveys, Vizsla Silver has been collecting magnetic susceptibility readings from most of the drill core. These data have been compiled in Excel tables, and each drill hole has a downhole graph of the susceptibility readings. These graphs have been included in the compilation of the drilling cross-sections and are often useful in distinguishing rock types. An example of this compilation of data is shown in Figure 9-4.

10Drilling

10.1Historical Drilling

For the historical drilling before the Vizsla Silver acquisitions the details are largely unknown, including drilling equipment, procedures followed, and conclusions made. Evidence of historical drilling activities on the property include collar pipes, underground drill markers, and scattered report references; however, retention of historical data is sparse.

After acquiring claims in 1989, Grupo Minera Bacis (Bacis) drilled 19 holes totalling 2,822.8 m along the Animas-Refugio corridor, but of this work only collar and survey records exist.

From 1999 to 2001, MRP explored the Animas-Refugio and Cordon del Oro structures, culminating in 45 holes, for 8,358.6 m. Collar and downhole survey, and limited assay records exist from this drilling. Drill-hole orientations mainly were orthogonal to the vein system. No geological drill logs, downhole survey data, downhole sample data, or downhole geochemical assay data have been preserved. Graphic drill-hole sections are available, with limited downhole geology and geochemical data. The MRP drill data cannot be relied upon, as material data are unavailable for hole deviation, core recovery, assaying, or quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC).

In 2005, Capstone drilled 15,374 m in 131 holes on down-dip extensions of the Clemens and El Muerto mines on the Animas-Refugio vein. In 2007, Capstone explored the La Colorada structure with surface mapping and sampling, followed by 6,659 m of drilling in 64 holes.

Between 2005 and 2009 Silverstone drilled 200 holes for 21,640.81 m on the Animas-Refugio and La Colorada veins. Drill-hole orientations were generally perpendicular to the strike of the veins targeted. Core was drilled with HQ tools; however, some holes were reduced to NQ diameter when drill conditions necessitated it. Collars were surveyed in UTM NAD 27 using a total station TOPCON GTS-236W instrument. Downhole survey readings were recorded using either an Eastman single-shot or REFLEX EZ-SHOT instrument approximately every 50 m, depending on the hole depth.

Data for drilling along the Animas-Refugio structure was limited to collar, downhole surveys, assays, recovery, lithology, and specific gravity, and no drill logs or assay certificates were available. Data for 64 drill holes at La Colorada included:

  • Digital drill logs that include lithologic, alteration, structural, and sample data.

  • Downhole survey.

  • Core recovery, rock-quality designation (RQD), and specific gravity data.

  • Low-resolution core photos.

  • Drill sections in AutoCAD DXF format.

  • Digital assay certificates are available in CSV format; however, limited signed assay certificates are available.

The available data indicate that a number of the holes that tested La Colorada have low or no recovery. Most of the core from the Silverstone drilling has been discarded; however, select intervals have been stored in a small building near Copala.

10.2Vizsla Silver Drilling

Since November 2019, twenty-two prospects have been drill-tested. They are Los Generales, Rosarito, Cuevillas, La Negra, Josephine, Ojo de Agua, La Pipa, Mariposa, Paloma, Honduras, San Carlos, Tajitos, Peralta, Broche del Oro, Aguita Zarca, and the seven prospects making up the Napoleon vein-Gallinero Sur, Gallinero, Napoleon, Limoncito, Papayo, Venadillo, and Estrella. The Mineral Resource database contains 442 holes, for 124,610.97 m of HQ- and NQ-diameter drilling, with less PQ-diameter drilling. Table 10-1 summarizes Vizsla Silver's drilling conducted on the Panuco Project and included in this Mineral Resource estimate. Vizsla has continued to drill at the Project since the data cut off for the Mineral Resource estimate.

Drill holes are generally oriented to test structures perpendicular to their strike. Holes are typically HQ diameter, with reduction to NQ diameter when ground conditions necessitate it. Drill-hole collars are surveyed by Trimble differential GPS and Total Station. Downhole orientations of drill-hole azimuth, inclination, and total magnetic field are recorded by a Devico survey instrument every 50 m downhole. A magnetic declination of 7° was used for correcting drill-hole azimuths. Drill-hole geology is recorded for lithology, alteration, mineralization, structures, and veins. Furthermore, drill-hole recovery and RQD are recorded for all drilled intervals.

10.2.12019 Drilling

In November 2019, Vizsla Silver began drilling on the Panuco Project on the Animas-Refugio corridor near the La Pipa and Mariposa mine areas. A total of 820.50 m in three drill holes was completed in 2019. The three drill holes targeted the La Pipa structure to test below the old historic ore shoot. Results showed low-grade and narrow widths, and no further testwork was carried out.

10.2.22020 Drilling

Drilling for 2020 totalled 28,643.42 m in 129 drill holes. The four main corridors of Napoleon, Cinco Senores, Cordon del Oro, and Animas-Refugio were tested.

In January 2020, drilling resumed at the Mariposa mine area, another historically mined area. Other targets in the Animas-Refugio corridor included, from south to north, Mojocuan, San Carlos, Paloma, and Honduras veins.

Drilling at the Napoleon corridor began in June 2020. A total of 64 drill holes tested the Napoleon structure, for 12,546.02 m. Targets were in the central part of the north-south-trending structure, below old mine workings, and 650 m north in the Papayo area. Hole NP-20-20 cut a 9.3 m-wide (true width) interval that graded 5.5 g/t Au and 369 g/t Ag, which included a 3.0 m-wide interval grading 20.59 g/t Au and 1,368 g/t Ag.

At the Cordon del Oro corridor, drilling totalled 6,432.05 m in 28 drill holes. The drilling targeted the Mojocuan, San Carlos, and Peralta mine areas, in addition to the Aguita Zarca vein.

Cinco Senores corridor saw 2,927.10 m of drilling in 14 drill holes. The Tajitos vein was the drilling target, and previously unknown workings were encountered in the first four holes. Hole CS-20-01 intersected 4.5 m of 7.29 g/t Au and 1,200.6 g/t Ag starting at 75.9 m.

10.2.32021 Drilling

Drilling at the Panuco Project in 2021 totalled 95,147.05 m in 310 drill holes. The drilling focussed along the Napoleon and Tajitos vein areas, with 51,507.15 m in 174 drill holes and 32,925.85 m in 100 drill holes, respectively. Additionally, 4,438.50 m in 14 drill holes were drilled in the Animas-Refugio corridor, and 6,275.55 m in 22 drill holes in the Cordon del Oro corridor.

At Napoleon, infill and delineation drilling focussed on denser drilling to inform the Mineral Resource estimate and expand the structure's strike length. The Josephine vein, a subparallel system to Napoleon which was identified initially as an electromagnetic geophysical target, was first intersected in Hole NP-21-132, leading to additional targeting in the area and its inclusion in the Mineral Resource estimate. Further drill testing included the Cruz Negra and Alacran vein areas.

Drilling at the Tajitos vein area focussed on delineation and infilling, with additional exploration drilling to the north. The Tajitos resource drilling led to the discovery of the Copala vein -- a relatively thick subhorizontal structure on the Tajitos northeastern extent. Other exploration drilling along the Cinco Senores corridor included the Cinco Senores and Colorada veins to north of Tajitos.

In the Animas-Refugio corridor, drilling tested the Rosarito segment included in the Mineral Resource estimate, in addition to the Peralta and Cuevillas veins.

Drilling at the Cordon del Oro corridor targeted the San Antonio structure included in the Mineral Resource estimate, in addition to exploration near the Aguita Zarca vein.

11Sample Preparation, Analysis, and Security

11.1Rock Samples

Surface and underground sampling consist of chip, floats, and channels. Samples are oriented perpendicular to mineralized structures and variations in mineralization, and are sampled separately. At least one sample on either side of the mineralized structure is also collected. Samples are collected as continuous chip channel, with minimum sample lengths of 30 cm and maximum sample lengths of 1.5 m. The sample length and the width of the chipped channel, typically 10 to 15 cm, is recorded along with the sample's estimated true width.

In the warehouse, certified reference materials and blanks are inserted into the sample sequence of surface and underground samples. The samples are packed into large rice/sugar sacks for transport. A control file with sack number and rock sample numbers contained in each sack and the laboratory sample dispatch form accompanies the sample shipment (used to control and monitor the shipment). The control files are used to track the progress of the samples to the lab and through to receiving results. The sample shipment is delivered to the ALS laboratory in Zacatecas, Mexico, via a parcel transport company. ALS sends a confirmation note and sample log by electronic mail to confirm sample delivery.

Sample preparation and reduction is carried out at ALS in Zacatecas, and pulp fractions are sent to the ALS laboratory in North Vancouver, B.C., for analysis. The Zacatecas and North Vancouver ALS facilities are certified by ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 17025. Samples are dried, weighed, and crushed, and a 250 g split is pulverized to at least 85% passing (P85) 75 µm. Silver, base metals and pathfinder elements are analyzed using a four-acid digestion method with an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) finish as part of a geochemical suite (ALS Method Code ME-ICP61). Over-limit analyses for silver (>100 ppm), lead (>10,000 ppm), and zinc (>10,000 ppm) are re-assayed using an ore-grade four-acid digestion with atomic absorption (AA) finish (ALS Method Code OG62). Samples with silver assays between 1500 ppm and 10,000 ppm, are fire assayed by gravimetric methods on 30g sample pulps (ALS Method Code Ag-GRA21). Gold is fire assayed with AA spectroscopy finish on 30g sample pulps (ALS Method Code AuAA23). Gold over-limit values (>10 ppm) are reanalyzed with fire assay with gravimetric finish (ALS Method Code Au-GRA21).

It is the QP's opinion that the sampling methods, preparation, and security are consistent with accepted industry practices.

11.2Core Samples

11.2.1Sample Preparation and Security

Core boxes and lids are assembled on the drill site as needed so that they are clean and free of grease at the site. The driller marks boxes and lids with the drill-hole number; then, at the end of each core run, the driller places a wooden block in the box that clearly shows the distance down hole in metres. When the core box is full, the box is tightly sealed by a rope or rubber band straps prior to transportation from drill site to the core shack by the drilling contractors.

Upon arrival at the core shack, the drill core is cleaned prior to being photographed. The drill core is logged for lithology, structure, alteration, and mineralization prior to marking out sample intervals. Lithologic and sample logging is conducted digitally using Geobank software. Figure 11-1 shows the core logging facility and longer -term core storage area at the Concordia, Sinaloa facility. Sample intervals are defined to honor vein, mineralization, alteration, and lithology contacts. Suspect high-grade intervals are sampled separately. The maximum sample interval is 1.5 m and the minimum sample length is 0.20 m. Before sampling, the geologist also marks a saw line along the core axis, trying to split the vein or mineralized structures into two symmetrical halves.

Figure 11-1:Vizsla Silver Core-Logging Facility in Concordia, Sinaloa. Left: Core logging area; Right: Long-Term, Covered and Fenced, Core Storage Area

The sampler saws HQ core in half, with half being submitted for analysis and half remaining in the core box as a record. The sampler saws PQ core such that one-quarter of the core is submitted for analysis, and the remaining three-quarters remain in the core box as a record. Only one piece of core is removed from the core box at a time, and care is taken to replace the unsampled portion of the core in the core box in the original orientation. The drill-hole number and sample intervals are clearly entered into a sample book to back up the digital logging files. The geologist staples the portion of the uniquely numbered sample ticket at the beginning of the corresponding sample interval in the core box, and the sampler places one portion of the ticket in the sample bag. The sample ticket book is archived at the Concordia camp. Sample bags are sealed with a plastic cinch strap and are stored in Vizsla Silver's secure warehouse. No directors or officers of the company are involved in sample collection or preparation.

In the warehouse, certified reference materials and blanks are inserted into the sample stream, and then sample quality controls are bagged in sacks for transport. A control file, the laboratory sample dispatch form, includes the sack number and contained rock sample bag numbers in each sack. The laboratory sample dispatch form accompanies the sample shipment and is used to control and monitor the shipment. The control files are used to keep track of the time it takes to get the samples to the lab, and time it takes upon receiving assay certificates; the turn around time. The sample shipment is delivered to ALS in Zacatecas via a parcel transport company. ALS sends a confirmation email with detail of samples received upon delivery.

Sample preparation is carried out at ALS in Zacatecas, and sample pulps are sent to ALS in North Vancouver for analysis. The ALS Zacatecas and North Vancouver facilities are ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 17025 certified. Samples are dried, weighed, and crushed, and a 250 g split is pulverized to at least P85 75 µm.

11.2.2Sample Analyses

Silver, base metals and pathfinder elements are analyzed using a four-acid digestion method with an ICP finish as part of a geochemical suite (ALS Method Code ME-ICP61). Over-limit analyses for silver (>100 ppm), lead (>10,000 ppm), and zinc (>10,000 ppm) are re-assayed using an ore-grade four-acid digestion method with AA finish (ALS Method Code OG62). Samples with silver values between 1,500 ppm and 10,000 ppm, are fire assayed by gravimetric finish on a 30 g sample pulp (ALS Method Code Ag-GRA21). Gold is fire assayed with AA spectroscopy finish on a 30 g sample pulp (ALS Method Code AuAA23). Gold over-limit values (>10 ppm) are reanalyzed by fire assay with gravimetric finish (ALS Method Code Au-GRA21).

Bulk Density

Drill core samples were submitted to ALS for bulk density determinations using the water displacement method on wax coated core (Code OA-GRA09A). In 2021, 153 samples were submitted from Napoleon core and 98 samples from Tajitos core. The average SG is 2.61 g/cc.

11.2.3Data Management

Data are verified and double-checked by senior geologists on site for data entry verification, error analysis, and adherence to strict analytical quality-control protocols.

It is the QP's opinion that the sampling methods, preparation, and security are consistent with accepted industry practices.

11.3Quality Assurance/Quality Control

QA/QC programs are typically set in place to ensure the reliability and trustworthiness of the exploration data. They include written field procedures and independent verifications of drilling, surveying, sampling, assaying, data management, and database integrity. Appropriate documentation of quality-control measures and regular analysis of quality-control data are essential for the Project data and form the basis for the quality-assurance program implemented during exploration.

Analytical control measures typically involve internal and external laboratory control measures implemented to monitor the precision and accuracy of the sampling, preparation, and assaying. They are also essential to prevent sample mix-up and monitor the voluntary or inadvertent contamination of samples. Assaying protocols typically involve regular duplicate and replicate assays and insertion of quality-control samples.

Check assaying is typically performed as an additional reliability test of assaying results. These checks typically involve re-assaying a set number of rejects and pulps at a second umpire laboratory. Vizsla Silver does not currently conduct check assaying, this is recommended for future exploration programs.

11.3.1Core Sampling

Vizsla Silver's QA/QC program comprises the systematic insertion of certified reference materials (CRMSs), blanks, field, and preparation duplicates. Approximately one of seven samples submitted have been QA/QC samples. In summary, 1,188 blanks, 1,019 CRMs, 533 field duplicate pairs, and 525 preparation duplicate pairs have been submitted (Table 11-1) as of December 1, 2021. Preparation duplicates are currently analyzed by ALS, it is recommended that these samples ("same-pulp check assays) be forwarded to a different laboratory to provide a measure of the accuracy of the initial assay determination.

Shewhart charts that plot concentration versus sample sequence with warning and failure limits are presented below (Figure 11-2 to Figure 11-9). Warning limits are indicated by a Z-score of ±2 SD, and control limits are indicated by a Z-score of ±3 SD. The Shewhart chart for gold and silver identified failures at ±3 SD. Vizsla Silver took corrective actions by reassaying the affected batches. A greater frequency of failures was noted associated with CDN-ME-1901, Vizsla Silver decided to discontinue use of the CRM.

The Shewhart charts for lead and zinc in standards indicate that less than 1% of samples were outside the warning and control limits.

Blank Material

Blank samples comprising obsidian from sources in Jalisco were inserted into the sample stream in the field to determine the degree of sample contamination after sample collection, particularly during the sample preparation process. Review of the analytical results from the blank samples indicates that 97% of the blank samples in the drill core sample stream returned uniformly low values in all elements of interest.

Duplicate Material

Figure 11-10 to Figure 11-13 illustrate the variability in precision for silver field duplicate samples. As illustrated in these scatter plots for field duplicates the poor precision in field duplicates is influenced by multiple duplicate-pairs. Poor results were observed for Animas (Au, Pb and Zn), Napoleon (Au, Pb) and for Tajitos (Au). The same-pulp check assays confirmed consistently good accuracy.

Thus far, the precision of duplicates with respect to lead and zinc is better than the precision of gold and silver. Both lead and zinc have good precision in preparation duplicates and fair precision in field duplicates

The precision of the field and preparation duplicates should continue to be monitored as the drill program progresses.

11.3.2Summary

Thus far with respect to gold, lead, and zinc, the precision of preparation duplicates is fair and acceptable, while the precision of field duplicates is poor. The precision of field and preparation duplicates with respect to silver is poor. The poor precision with respect to silver is due to the uneven distribution of mineralization, similar to the "nugget effect" in gold, and potentially to sample size. Care should continue to be taken to avoid sampling bias by marking samples that as evenly as possible bisect veins. At the site visit, TMAC recommended that the logging geologists mark a line for core sampling and that has been implemented by Vizsla Silver. Monitoring of precision should be continued, and may require the use of larger sample sizes such as split, as opposed to quartered, PQ core.

No evidence of contamination was noted in blank samples, and the systematic insertion and monitoring of blank samples should be continued. In particular, based on the rock sampling results, additional blank samples are inserted following suspected higher-grade mineralization.

Review of standard samples indicated a limited number of samples that fell outside of control limits; however, batches with failures were reanalyzed and the updated assays inserted in the database.

It is the QP's opinion that the sampling methods, preparation, and security are consistent with accepted industry practices and of suitable quality to support the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate as reported in Section 14.

11.4Sample Storage and Security

All exploration samples taken were collected by Vizsla Silver staff. Chain of custody (COC) of samples was carefully maintained from collection at the drill rig to delivery at the laboratories to prevent inadvertent contamination or mixing of samples, and rendering active tampering as difficult as possible.

The core is stored at the core-logging facilities in Concordia under a roof to preserve its condition. The area is fenced and guarded by security. The plastic boxes containing the core boxes are properly tagged with the corresponding drilling information and stored in an organized way and under acceptable conditions.

12Data Verification

TMAC conducted data verification during the Mineral Resource estimate. This included the built-in checks associated with importing data into GEMS, random checks of database assays compared with assay certificates, and review of the QA/QA performance (Section 11). The data verification was supported by the site visit conducted between September 28, 2021 to October 1, 2021 (TMAC, 2021). Exploratory data analysis, as discussed in Section 14, is an additional component of the data verification process.

12.1Site Visit

Tim Maunula, P.Geo., conducted a site visit to the Panuco Project between September 28, 2021 to October 1, 2021. Mr. Maunula was accompanied on his site visit by Martin Dupuis, Vice President of Technical Services (Vizsla Silver) and Steve Blower of Vice-President of Exploration (Vizsla Copper Corp.). Also Mr. Maunula had interaction at the site with the following Vizsla Silver personnel: Hernando Rueda, Carlos Beltran, Manuel Gayon and Zabdiel Salcido.

The site visit activities included:

  • Review of methodology in support of drill-hole logging, sampling, and QA/QC

  • Confirmation of the drill logs and sampling.

  • Review of drill sites.

12.1.1Diamond Drilling

Vizsla Silver generally orients the drill holes to test structures perpendicular to their strike. Drill holes are started with PQ diameter core and reduced to HQ and, if necessary, NQ diameter. Trimble differential GPS and Total Station survey drill-hole collars. Downhole orientations of drill-hole azimuth, inclination and total magnetic field are recorded by a Devico survey instrument at 21 m to verify the drill-hole azimuth and every 50 m downhole thereafter.

Drill Sites

Diamond drilling at Panuco Project is conducted by Mexican diamond drilling contractors Bylsa Drilling (Figure 12-1) and Maza Drilling.

A GPS problem was encountered with the collar coordinate for NP-21-90. TMAC did not have the collar surveys in the field, so the error was not noted in the field. Vizsla Silver subsequently reconfirmed the collar location.

Logging and Sampling

Panuco's facilities. in Concordia (Sinaloa), are used for geotechnical logging, geological logging, and core sampling.

Drill core for Drill Holes CS-21-21B, CS-20-06, CS-21-18, and NP-20-54 was reviewed. A review of the lithology, mineralization and sampling was carried out and compared with the drill log printouts. The review generally matched the drill log, and no notable discrepancies were identified.

Drill plans and sections were reviewed in the core shack. The priority is to maintain current drill plans and sections to confirm consistency in the logged geological units and facilitate logging of mineralized zones.

Figure 12-2:Core Logging Facilities in Concordia

Core splitting methodology and facilities were reviewed. Figure 12-3 illustrate the core splitting facilities. The core orientation for sampling is currently selected by the core splitter. It is recommended that a line be drawn by the logging geologist to guide core splitting.

Figure 12-3:Core Splitting Facilities

Quality Assurance/Quality Control

Standard Reference Material (SRM) is available for different grade ranges and stored in the core logging facility. The SRM is selected based on the estimated grade of mineralization in the drill hole. Blank Material is inserted after identified visible gold intervals. The Prep Lab is instructed to clean crusher with silica when the logger identifies high grade. Field duplicates are collected for check assaying.

Sample tags are stapled in the core box at the sample location. The type of QA/QC sample (including the specific SRM if appropriate) and drill-hole number are included on the tag in the box.

12.1.2Check Samples

A total of nine quarter-sawn check core samples were collected by TMAC from the mineralized intervals within Drill Hole NP-20-42. The samples were split and bagged under the supervision of TMAC. Custody was maintained by TMAC until delivery to the courier in Mazatlán.

The same sample numbers as the original sample numbers were used for the check samples with the letter "T" appended to identify these check samples. Blank Material and Standard Reference Material CDN-ME-1903 were included in the batch.

The samples were submitted to ALS Canada Ltd., which is the same laboratory used by Vizsla Silver. The sample preparation and analytical procedures were the same as those used by Vizsla Silver. The assay certificate, ZA21266832, was issued on October 31, 2021 to TMAC and Vizsla Silver. In general, there is good agreement between the two samples and no anomalous grades were identified. Figure 12-4 illustrates a graphical comparison of the silver assays.

12.1.3Site Visit Observations

The following observations were made during this site visit:

  • Covid-19 was addressed during site induction including rapid antigen testing. Other protocols were noted to minimize effect of Covid-19.

  • Mineralization can be visually identified and facilitate sampling.

  • Reconciliation between logged VOID and mined out areas is recommended.

  • Recommend collection of additional density samples to characterize mineralization and host lithologies.

12.2Database Verification

TMAC completed data verification of the assay grades for 22 drill holes compared with the associated assay certificates. This was approximately 5% of the drilling conducted in 2020 and 2021. TMAC did not identify any material issues and data was found to match the original lab certificates.

12.3Conclusions

On completion of the data verification process, it is the QP's opinion that the geological data collection and QA/QC procedures used by Vizsla Silver are consistent with standard industry practices and that the database is of suitable quality to support the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate, as reported in Section 14.

13Mineral Processing and Metallurgical Testing

13.1Introduction

A metallurgical test program was developed on drill core samples taken from the Napoleon vein to support the project evaluation. The testwork was carried out from August 2021 to January 2022 by ALS in Kamloops, B.C.

The testwork was performed to characterize the mineralization chemically and mineralogically, as well as to test various flowsheets and methods for concentration and extraction of metals. The testwork program undertaken included:

  • Chemical and mineralogical analysis of the feed samples

  • Preliminary comminution test

  • Investigation of metal pre-concentration through flotation

  • Investigation of cyanidation leaching for the whole ore and bulk concentrates from flotation tests

  • Study of gold and silver gravity concentration.

These tests provided a basic understanding of the response from the samples to the test program and will allow for process options to be further evaluated in future work.

13.2Test Samples

The core drill sample used in the testing program consisted of 330 kg from 108 half-HQ drill core intervals selected from six mineralized drill holes. The rationale for sample selection considered primary lithologies, spatial coverage and representation, contiguous mineralization, distribution of grade, and potential dilution. The selected mineralized drill holes were within the area of potentially minable material and are believed to be representative of the mineralization with a cut off grade of 127 g/t Ag and 2.77 g/t Au.

A total of 11 composite samples were prepared from the drill core and used in the metallurgical testwork. The weights and intervals used to prepare those composites are presented in Table 13-1.

13.3Comminution

Comminution testing was completed on the grindability composite, Master Composite, and composite G, and included the following tests:

  • Bond rod mill work index (BRWi)
  • Bond abrasion index
  • Bond ball mill work index (BBWi).

Table 13-3 displays a summary of the comminution testing completed. The grindability composite measured an abrasion index of 0.599, which indicates that the sample is abrasive. Therefore, the mill media and lining would be expected to have increased wear.

Bond rod mill work index tests completed on the grindability composite and Composite G measured about 15 kWh/t. This would describe the samples as average hardness for grinding in a rod mill. The Bond ball work index measured approximately 17 kWh/t for the Master Composite would describe the sample as hard for grinding in a ball mill.

13.4Mineralogy and Feed Analysis

The mineral contents of the Master Composite, Composite G, and the grindability composite were measured using Quantitative Evaluation of Materials by Scanning Electron Microscopy (QEMSCAN) Particle Mineral Analysis Protocols; results are shown in Table 13-4.

Sulphide minerals were primarily measured as pyrite, sphalerite, galena, and copper sulphides. The copper sulphides were measured mainly as chalcopyrite, with lower amounts of chalcocite/covellite and bornite. Between 68% and 74% of the samples were measured as quartz, which likely contributes to the abrasiveness of the material. Felspars estimated between 14% and 19%, and most of the remaining non-sulphide gangue minerals were chlorite, micas, and calcium carbonates. Fluorine-bearing fluorite was detected in all samples, but only quantified for the Master Composite at 0.2%.

Multi-element analysis, including gold, silver, and sulphur, was performed on the composites A to K inclusive, the grindability composite, Master Composite, and composite G and are presented in Table 13-5.

Lead and zinc levels in the Master Composite were both approximately 1.1%, showing their predominance after iron. Sulphur measured between about 1.0% and 3.3% in the composites and is associated with primarily iron sulphides, but also with lead, zinc, and copper sulphide minerals.

13.5Metallurgical Testwork

Metallurgical testwork included gravity concentration, bulk and sequential flotation producing bulk, zinc, and pyrite concentrates, whole ore cyanidation leaching, and cyanidation of the bulk and pyrite concentrates.

13.5.1Gravity Testing

A single gravity concentration test was completed using a 2 kg charge of the Master Composite, ground to 80% passing (K80) 63 µm. This test was completed using a laboratory Knelson gravity concentration unit with a 100 g cone, followed by panning of the Knelson concentrate to reduce mass recovery. Table 13-6 displays a summary of the gravity test results.

Approximately 40% of the gold was recovered to the Knelson concentrate, and 25.7% of gold was recovered to the pan concentrate, at a 0.6% mass recovery. About 11.9% of the silver and 12.8% of the lead was also recovered to the pan concentrate along with 10% of the sulphur. Silver may be associated with the lead-bearing galena or may be reporting to the gravity concentrate with the galena due to similar specific gravities.

Usually, a scale up factor of 2/3 is commonly quoted to represent the appropriate discount to apply to the GRG value to account for the inefficiency of the plant separation by comparison to the lab test

Zinc sulphate and sodium cyanide were utilized as depressants for sphalerite and pyrite in the bulk flotation. Copper sulphate was used as an activator for sphalerite in the zinc circuit. The dithiophosphinate, 3418A, was used as the collector in the bulk circuit. In contrast, sodium isopropyl xanthate (SIPX) was used as the collector in the zinc/pyrite circuits, lime was used as the pH modifier, and methyl isobutyl carbinol (MIBC) was used as frother. Conditions used in this testing are summarized in Table 13-7.

Figure 13-2:Master Composite Rougher Flotation Recoveries as a Function of a Primary Grind Size

Gold recovery is impacted by the increased primary grind size more so than silver as it is displaying a steeper decline trend; the overall decrease in recovery between finest particle size of 43 µm and coarsest particle size of 140 µm being 10%.

The silver recoveries are also declining with the increase in the primary grind; however, overall decrease in recoveries between the finest and coarsest particle size is only 5%. The slight "bump" in the silver recovery curve could be likely attributed to an assaying error.

The increase in the primary grind size has also caused decrease in the silver and gold recovery in the composite G sample. Effect of particle grind size on the rougher flotation recovery was presented in Table 13-9 and plotted in Figure 13-3.

Figure 13-5:Effect of the Regrind Particle Size on the Metal Recoveries in the Bulk Cleaner Concentrate

With regrinding of the bulk rougher concentrate to about K80 19 µm, approximately 83% of the lead, 68% Ag, and 74% Au were recovered to the bulk concentrate. Increasing the depressant in the bulk regrind resulted in a slightly higher concentrate lead grade but significantly reduced silver recovery.

Without regrinding, high silver losses were recorded in the bulk cleaner circuit. Lead grade in the bulk concentrate was 47%, while zinc grade in the zinc concentrate was 48%.

Additionally, cleaner concentrates were analyzed, and the grades are presented in Table 13-12.

In the zinc circuit, regrind discharge sizes ranged between K80 30 µm and 36 µm. Zinc concentrates comprised about 56% Zn at the finest size and consisted of 71% Zn, 7% Ag, and 10% Au. This was relatively unchanged at the coarser regrind size; however, silver and gold recoveries were reduced because these metals were mainly recovered in the bulk circuit for those tests. Circulating the bulk cleaner scavenger tailing to the zinc rougher conditioner resulted in higher zinc recoveries at a lower zinc grade. About 77% of the zinc, 10% of the silver, and 6% of the gold were recovered to the zinc concentrate, which measured about 54% Zn.

Combined silver and gold recoveries to the bulk and zinc concentrates were 79% and 84%, respectively. About 6% of the silver, 3% to 4% of the gold and 4% to 6% of the feed mass were recovered to the pyrite rougher concentrate. This product assayed about 1.8 to 2.9 g/t Au and between 124 and 210 g/t Ag.

In the bulk cleaner concentrates, silver measured between 4,260 and 4,360 g/t and gold between 111 and 152 g/t. The zinc cleaner concentrates showed between 690 and 780 g/t Ag and between 11.6 and 16 g/t Au.

Zinc concentrate at the 30 µm regrind size had a 56.3% Zn grade with the 71.5% Zn, 7.7% Ag, and 10% Au recoveries, respectively. The zinc and other metal grades were relatively unchanged with the coarser regrind size; however, silver and gold recoveries were lower because these metals were mainly recovered in the bulk circuit.

Recirculation of the bulk cleaner scavenger tails stream to the zinc rougher conditioner resulted in higher zinc recoveries at a lower zinc grade. Combined silver and gold recoveries to the bulk and zinc concentrates were 79% and 84%, respectively.

Elevated levels of cadmium, which may incur smelter penalties, were present in the assayed zinc cleaner concentrates.

Zinc flotation circuit tails were subjected to rougher pyrite flotation under conditions described in Table 13-10 to maximize precious metal recoveries. Results from this testwork are presented in Table 13-13.

The increase in the reagent addition resulted in a higher sulphur recovery, which may be a result of improved zinc/sphalerite activation. As a result, there was a slight increase in silver and mass recovery but no change in gold recovery.

Without regrinding, at a nominal particle grind size of K80 63 µm, a bulk concentrate measuring 1,742 g/t Ag, 40 g/t Au, and 34% S was produced, with the 87% Ag and 86% Au recoveries, respectively.

Addition of a regrind stage (at K80 31 µm particle size), have resulted in the increased concentrate grades of 1,888 g/t Ag, 45 g/t Au and 37% S, respectively.

In summary, the overall bulk recovery values for gold and silver were similar to those measured in sequential flotation, which recovered about 79% of the silver and 84% of the gold to the combined bulk and zinc concentrates, with a further 6% of the silver and 4% of the gold recovered to the pyrite rougher concentrate as described above in Cleaner Testing-Sequential Flotation (Bulk-Zinc-Pyrite).

13.5.3Whole Ore Cyanidation Leaching Test

Two whole ore bottle roll cyanidation leach tests were completed on the Master Composite at a nominal K80 63 µm primary grind size. The leaches were run for 48 hours, at pH 11, at 33 weight percent solids, and with oxygen sparging at each sampling interval. The first test was carried out using 2,000 ppm NaCN. The second test was completed using 3,000 ppm NaCN and with extensive pre-aeration due to high cyanide consumption and initial oxygen starvation in the first test.

Table 13-18 presents the results for the leaching tests with and without pre-aeration. Gold extraction was faster with pre-aeration. About 90% of the gold was extracted to the leach liquor over 24 hours, increasing to about 93% after 48 hours. Silver extraction was slower, measuring about 82% after 24 hours, increasing to 87% after 48 hours.

Gold and silver extractions were low in the first 6 hours without pre-aeration due to oxygen starvation. Approximately 91% of the gold was extracted after 24 hours, increasing to 93% after 48 hours. Silver extraction was 72% after 24 hours and 78% after 48 hours without pre-aeration.

Sodium cyanide consumptions were notably higher in the initial 6 hours of cyanidation without pre-aeration. About 6.4 kg/t NaCN feed was consumed over 48 hours in the test without pre-aeration compared to 2.5 kg/t feed for the test with pre-aeration, despite a higher sodium cyanide concentration being used. Additional leaching testwork as recommended in the recommendation section will be needed to optimize the sodium cyanide consumption.

Lime consumptions were lower without pre-aeration at 0.5 kg/t feed compared to 0.8 kg/t feed with pre-aeration.

Upwards of 20% of the copper in the feed has also been leached during the cyanidation test, with the final leach liquors assaying 101 and 111 g/t Cu after 48 hours. Results for whole ore cyanidation are present in Figure 13-7.

13.5.4Cyanidation Leaching Test on a Bulk Rougher Concentrate, a Reground Rougher Concentrate, and a Pyrite Rougher Concentrate

Cyanidation leaching tests were completed on a bulk rougher concentrate, a reground rougher concentrate, and a pyrite rougher concentrate. The leaching was performed on roll bottles over 48 hours, using 3,000 ppm NaCN, at pH 11, with oxygen sparging at each sampling interval, and with an 8-hour pre-aeration step prior to cyanidation.

Without regrinding, about 86% of the silver and 92% of gold were extracted from the rougher concentrate after 48 hours. This represents about 80% and 82% of the feed silver and gold, respectively. Silver extraction did not improve with regrinding, but gold extraction increased by about 9%, representing 86% of the gold in the flotation feed. These were lower than the whole-ore leach extractions of 87% of the silver and 93% of the gold, but with substantially lower reagent consumptions and a far lower feed mass to the leach circuit.

The cyanidation of the pyrite rougher concentrate produced through sequential flotation resulted in the extraction of 4% of the feed silver and 3% of the gold. This would represent a combined flotation recovery and leach extraction of gold and silver of about 83% for silver and 87% for gold using a sequential flowsheet that produces bulk, zinc, and pyrite concentrates with cyanidation of the pyrite concentrate.

13.6Conclusions and Recommendations

A preliminary test program has been completed on material from the Napoleon deposit on behalf of Vizsla Silver.

Most of the testing was completed on the Master Composite sample, a lead-zinc composite with high amounts of silver and gold. Conclusions drawn from the conducted metallurgical testwork are presented in Table 13-20.

Conclusions

Gravity Concentration

Master Composite

The gravity concentration test on sample of Master Composite at the particle grind size of 63 µm in the Knelson concentrator followed by panning, has yielded 40% Au recovery in the Knelson concentrator and 26% Au recovery in the pan product.

Actual plant operations typically only achieve between 50% and 80% of the testwork GRG value, therefore it is not recommended to include gravity concentration in the flowsheet.

Rougher Testing Sequential Flotation

Master Composite

Open circuit rougher sequential flotation testing has produced:

• Rougher lead concentrate with a recovery of 79% Ag; 80% Au; 93% Pb, and 24% Zn, respectively.

• Rougher zinc concentrate with a recovery of up to 9% Ag; 8% Au; 3% Pb and 72% Zn, respectively.

Trend was observed that precious metals recoveries in the lead concentrate have increased with a reduction in particle size as silver and gold recoveries of 80% Ag and 83% Au, respectively, were 7% and 12% higher at the particle grind size of 63 µm.

Precious metals recoveries in the zinc and pyrite concentrates were quite similar for the 63 and 140 µm and seemingly unaffected by the difference the particle grinds size.

Rougher Testing Sequential Flotation

Composite G

For the composite G, the decrease in the particle grind size have also resulted in the increased precious metals recovery in the lead concentrate as silver and gold recoveries of 81% Ag and 85% Au, respectively, were 4% and 8% higher at the particle grind size of 45 µm.

The opposite was observed when it comes to zinc concentrate where coarser particle grind size of 133 µm has yielded silver and gold recoveries of 19% and 16%, respectively which was 4% and 8% higher when compared to 133 µm particle grind size.

Precious metals recoveries in the zinc and pyrite concentrates were quite similar for the 63 and 140 µm and seemingly unaffected by the difference in the particle grinds size.

Cleaner Testing Sequential Flotation

Master Composite

Open circuit cleaner bulk flotation testing (with one cleaning stage) has produced:

• Cleaner lead concentrate with recoveries of up to 71% for silver (Ag), 76% Au (Au), 87% lead (Pb), and 12% Zn (Zn).

• Cleaner zinc concentrate with recoveries of up to 8% for silver (Ag), 7% Au (Au), 2% lead (Pb), and 71% Zn (Zn).

About 6% of the silver and 3 to 4% of the gold was recovered to the pyrite rougher concentrate.

Elevated levels of cadmium of in excess of 4,000 g/t, who appears to be associated with the sphalerite, were observed in the zinc cleaner concentrates which may incur smelter penalties, as it exceeds threshold limits of 3,000 g/t.

Conclusions

Rougher Testing Bulk

Master Composite

The bulk concentrate recoveries were 94% Ag and 88% Au, respectively, at 63 µm particle grind size.

The increase in the collector/copper sulphate addition have resulted in a higher sulphur recovery, which may be attributed to improved zinc/sphalerite activation.

Cleaner Testing Bulk

Master Composite

Without the regrind, at 63 µm particle grind size, the bulk cleaner concentrate assayed 1,742 g/t Ag and 40 g/t Au and had the recoveries of 87% Ag and 86% Au, respectively.

Cyanidation Leaching Test on Whole Ore and Concentrates

Master Composite

Oxygen sparged whole ore cyanidation tests at 48 hours retention time and particle grind size of 63 µm have resulted in the highest overall gold extraction of 93% Au and 87% Ag, respectively, however it did come with the relatively high sodium cyanide consumptions, measuring about 2.5 kg of NaCN per tonne of feed.

Sequential Flotation followed by Cyanidation of Rougher Pyrite Concentrate

Master Composite

Flotation of a sequential lead and zinc concentrate followed by cyanidation of a pyrite rougher concentrate have resulted in a combined flotation and leach extraction of 87% Au and 83% Ag, respectively.

14Mineral Resource Estimates

14.1Introduction

TMAC prepared a maiden Mineral Resource estimate for the Panuco Project consisting of Indicated and Inferred Resources. Mr. Tim Maunula, P.Geo., Principal Geologist for TMAC, was the QP responsible for the completion of the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate for the Panuco Project. The effective date of the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate is March 1, 2022.

The 2022 Mineral Resource estimate is based on drill-hole data provided by Vizsla Silver from surface diamond drill programs completed between 2019 and 2021. The cut-off date for assay data used in the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate was November 30, 2021. All data received was in UTM coordinate system.

The silver-gold-lead-zinc mineralization for the Panuco Project was modelled in four prospect areas of mineralization: Napoleon, Tajitos, Cordon del Oro, and Animas. The mineralization was modelled in Seequent Leapfrog GEO v5.0 (Leapfrog). Grades were estimated within each mineralization wireframe separately.

The software used for the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate was Geovia GEMS 6.8.3 Desktop (GEMS). The Mineral Resource estimates were classified according to the CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (CIM, 2014). The 2022 Mineral Resource estimate was reported at a 150.0 g/t AgEq cut-off grade for Mineral Resources which are amenable to underground extraction.

14.2Database

The 2022 Mineral Resource estimate for the Panuco Project is based on diamond drill-hole data consisting of assays, geological descriptions, and density measurements. Underground development was also taken into consideration.

Data was provided to TMAC by Vizsla Silver in electronic formats-CSV and DXF files-and imported into GEMS. The database was additionally verified using the validation tool in GEMS to determine errors and overlapping or out-of-sequence intervals. Minor errors were noted, and the database was updated.

The drill-hole database received from Vizsla Silver consisted of 442 drill holes totalling about 124,611 m of core drilling. The database includes all drilling on the Panuco Project in proximity to the interpreted mineralization zones and the four prospect areas. No historical drill-hole information is included.

The 2022 Mineral Resource estimate used 343 drill holes for grade interpolation.

14.3Geological Domaining

Thirteen sub-vertical precious metals-rich domains were defined by wireframes interpreted using Leapfrog within the four prospect areas (Figure 14-1, Figure 14-2, Table 14-1). The wireframes were defined with a minimum true thickness of 2.0 m for Napoleon Main Fault Blocks 1 and 2 and Tajitos Fault Blocks 1, 2, and 3. The other eight wireframes were defined using a minimum 1.5 m true thickness. Logged lithology and assays were used to select intervals in each hole to be used in the implicit modelling of the veins. The implicitly modelled wireframes were checked on 25 m spaced sections and any inconsistencies adjusted. Known faults were incorporated to the automatically updated model workflow to show any vein offsets. A parallel-to-vein fault in Napoleon represents an offset in the mineralization between Gallinero and Napoleon sub zones. Two perpendicular faults were modelled and used for the Tajitos area.

14.4Exploratory Data Analysis

The Mineral Resource model includes silver, gold, lead, and zinc assays from drill holes within the zone mineralization wireframes. Capped and uncapped grades are reported in the exploratory data analysis. Analysis of the assay values was conducted on raw drill-hole data and composited assays, by mineralization zone, to determine the nature of the grade distribution and correlation of grades with individual zones. The assay values were analyzed through a combination of descriptive statistics, histograms, probability plots, and box plots.

Drill holes not included in MRE as assays were not available are listed in Table 14-2.

14.4.1Capping Analysis

In mineral deposits having skewed distributions-typically with coefficient of variation (CV) >2-a few high-grade outliers can represent a large portion of the metal content. Often there is limited continuity demonstrated by these outliers.

Disintegration analysis uses a 5% to 15% step function to denote the changes in an ordered dataset and provides a degree of resolution on the plots to see more clearly the value of the population breaks that can be used for capping. It also provides a good look at the continuity of the grade dataset. The disintegration analysis was compared with the log probability plots to refine the capping level.

Figure 14-3 illustrates the selection of the cap value using disintegration analysis for Napoleon Main Fault Block 1. Figure 14-4 illustrates the corresponding grade distribution using a log probability plot.

14.4.2Contact Profiles

The contact relationship of the silver grades was analyzed at each mineralization wireframe contact. The contacts were confirmed as "hard," as they segregated the silver mineralization within the interpreted wireframe. The hard relationship was visually confirmed at the site visit by the QP.

Contact analysis determines the average grade based on the distance between the assay mid-points. Reference figures are provided for Napoleon Main Fault Block 1 (Figure 14-5) and Tajitos Fault Block 1 (Figure 14-6).

The average assay sample length is slightly less than 1.5 m and that was chosen as the composite length.

14.4.4Compositing

For purposes of normalizing the assay data for further analysis and grade interpolation, the raw assay values were composited to 1.5 m intervals within the interpreted mineralized zone wireframes. Composite lengths were adjusted to avoid short remnants on the hanging wall or footwall contacts of the mineralized zones by equalizing the composite length within the interval. Unassayed intervals were assigned a grade of half the lower detection limit for each metal. Composite values were then tagged by rock type codes (mineralization wireframe).

Table 14-5 shows the descriptive statistics of the uncapped and capped 1.5 m composite values by rock type. In general, the CV value was lower for the capped composites.

14.4.5Spatial Analysis

Geostatisticians use a variety of tools to describe the pattern of spatial continuity or strength of the spatial similarity of a variable with separation distance and direction. One of these is the correlogram, which measures the correlation between data values as a function of their separation distance and direction. When comparing samples that are close together, it is common to observe that their values are quite similar and the correlation coefficient for closely spaced samples is near 1.0. As the separation between samples increases, there is likely to be less similarity in the values, and the correlogram tends to decrease toward 0.0. The distance at which the correlogram reaches zero is called the range of correlation, or simply the range. The range of the correlogram corresponds roughly to the more qualitative notion of the range of influence of a sample; it is the distance over which sample values show some persistence or correlation. The shape of the correlogram describes the pattern of spatial continuity. A very rapid decrease near the origin is indicative of short-scale variability. A more gradual decrease moving away from the origin suggests more short-scale continuity. A plot of (1-correlation) is made so the result looks like the more familiar variogram plot.

The approach used to develop the variogram models employed Sage2001 software. Directional sample correlograms were calculated along horizontal azimuths of 0, 30, 60, 120, 150, 180, 210, 240, 270, 300, and 330 degrees. For each azimuth, sample correlograms were also calculated at dips of 30 and 60 degrees in addition to horizontally. Lastly, a correlogram was calculated in the vertical direction. Using the 37 sample correlograms, an algorithm determined the best-fit model nugget effect and two-nested structure variance contributions. After fitting the variance parameters, the algorithm then fitted an ellipsoid to the 37 ranges from the directional models for each structure. The anisotropy of the correlation was given by the range along the major, semi-major, and minor axes of the ellipsoids, and the orientations of these axes for each structure. TMAC reviewed the fitted variogram and adjusted it to reflect the mineralization. There were only sufficient samples in Napoleon Main Fault Blocks 1 and 2 to define the spatial continuity.

Table 14-6 presents the variogram parameters for the Napoleon Main Fault Blocks 1 and 2. These parameters were used to define the ranges of the search ellipse and resource classification.

14.6Block Model and Mineral Resource Estimation

14.6.1Block Model

For Mineral Resource estimation, the block model for the Panuco Project was set up as two block models to cover the western and eastern halves of the deposit: the Napoleon-Tajitos and Animas-Cordon Del Oro models. No rotation was applied to the block models. The block matrix was selected in consideration of the geometry of the deposit (narrow zones of mineralization), drill data density, and selective mining unit (SMU).

Table 14-8 summarizes the block model parameters used in the GEMS workspace.

14.6.2Search Parameters

Figure 14-9 summarizes the search ellipse parameters with inverse distance weighting to the power of two (IDW2) for grade interpolation. These parameters were based on the geological interpretation and variogram analysis. Similar search ellipses were used for inverse distance weighting to the power of three (IDW3), nearest neighbour (NN), and ordinary kriging (OK) grade interpolation. The same second pass was used for all rock types: isotropic 200 m range.

14.6.4Special Models

GEMS uses special models to track interpolation characteristics. These special models were also used for block model validation and to evaluate Mineral Resource classification. TMAC employed the following in the respective grade interpolation profiles:

  • NN Interpolation:

-DISTNN-distance to nearest composite

-NNPASS-pass number for NN interpolation

  • IDW3 interpolation:

-DISTAVG-average distance to composites used for interpolation

-DISTID-distance to nearest composite

-NCOMP-number of composites used for interpolation

-NDDH-number of drill holes used for interpolation

-PASS-pass number for IDW3 interpolation

  • OK interpolation:

-SLOPE-slope of regression

-KRVAR-kriging variance.

14.7Model Verification and Validation

TMAC distinguishes between verification and validation of the block model:

  • Verification is a manual check (i.e., visual inspection) or quasi-manual check (i.e., spreadsheet) of the actual procedure used.

  • Validation is a test for reasonableness using a parallel procedure, which may be manual or a computer-based (i.e., different interpolation methods).

14.7.1Visual Verification

The block model was validated by visually inspecting the block model results in section and plan compared with the drill-hole composite data. The grades of the blocks in section agreed well with the composite data used in the interpolation.

Figure 14-10 presents a 450 m Elevation plan view that compares the capped silver grades in blocks with the capped silver grades from the 1.5 m composites. Figure 14-11 illustrates good correlation between block and composite grades on Section 2587950N.

No bias was observed in the visual verification of the block model grades compared with composite grades.

14.7.2Statistical Validation

The block model statistics were reviewed for each rock type in each zone and no bias was found between the different interpolation methods and the 1.5 m composites.

Table 14-11 presents the average grades for Indicated and Inferred Resource blocks by interpolation method for each prospect. Minor differences are noted between the interpolation methods, but those may reflect data density and statistics generated by block count rather than weighted by tonnes. No bias is noted based on this comparison.

A series of swath plots of grades were generated from capped grades for the NN and IDW2 interpolation methods. Figure 14-12 to Figure 14-14 compare the capped silver grades for NN (AGCNN) with the IDW2 (AGCID) models. The plots include all rock types for Napoleon and Tajitos, so there is some variability between the mean grades of the block model grades for NN and IDW2 interpolation. These figures confirm a correlation between the grade models, independent of interpolation method. Some variability is noted in areas with smaller volumes.

14.7.4Hermitian Correction

Grade estimation, using linear methods such as OK or IDW, produces a single grade value for a block. This grade estimation is subject to a number of parameters: composite length, sample spacing, the statistical parameters of the data, search parameters, and block size. Each of these has an impact on the degree of smoothing in the block grade-estimation. The relative degree of smoothing in the block-model grade estimates can be evaluated using the discrete gaussian or hermitian polynomial change of support method (Journel & Huijbregts, 1978).

With this method, the distribution of the hypothetical block grades can be directly compared to the estimated model (OK or IDW) through the use of pseudograde/tonnage curves. In general, the estimated model should be slightly higher in tonnage and slightly lower in grade when compared to the Herco distribution at the projected cut-off grade. These differences account for selectivity and other potential ore-handling issues which commonly occur during mining.

April 7, 2022

Vizsla Silver Corp.

National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report for the
Panuco Project Mineral Resource Estimate
Concordia, Sinaloa, Mexico

The Herco distribution is derived from the declustered composite grades (nearest neighbour block model) which have been adjusted to account for the change in support as one goes from smaller drill-hole composite samples to the large blocks in the model. The transformation results in a less-skewed distribution but with the same mean as the original declustered samples.

The Herco program takes the block values and smooths them according to the SMU and the variogram. A series of data values are read, then transformed into normally distributed data. The transformation function is fitted with a number of Hermitian polynomials. Hermitian change of support is then applied to the original data to provide a series of transformed values distributed (in the model) as SMUs of the chosen size. The number of polynomials is determined so as to restitute the variance of the original data as closely as possible.

The Pass 1 Mineral Resource estimate within Napoleon is smooth relative to the Herco distribution. As shown in Figure 14-15, the IDW2 (AGCID2) model displays less smoothing than the OK (AGCOK) model-the tonnes were underestimated about 9.6% and the grade by 1.9% at 150.0 g/t Ag cut-off grade.

14.8Mineral Resource Estimate

14.8.1Mineral Resource Classification

Mineral Resource estimates were classified in accordance with definitions provided by CIM Definition Standards (CIM, 2014). The 2022 Mineral Resource estimates have an effective date of March 1, 2022.

The 2022 Mineral Resource estimates were initially assigned based on data density in coordination with mineralization continuity. Mineral Resource classification was then refined based on the interpolation statistics collected during interpolation and geologic continuity.

The Mineral Resource estimate was categorized into Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources as follows:

  • The Indicated Mineral Resource category is defined by areas where drill spacing is generally less than 50 m, blocks are informed by a minimum of two drill holes, and reasonable geological and grade continuity is shown. Copala, Tajitos Vein 3, Rosarito, and San Antonio veins are classified as Indicated Mineral Resources based on drill spacing less than 30 m.
  • The Inferred Mineral Resource category is defined by areas where drill spacing is less than 100 m, blocks are informed by a minimum of two drill holes, and reasonable, but not verified, geological and grade continuity are observed. Copala, Tajitos Vein 3, Rosarito, and San Antonio veins are classified as Inferred Mineral Resource based on drill spacing less than 60 m.

The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration.

A smoothing algorithm was applied to minimize the "spotted-dog" effect. As a result, 25 blocks (0.01%) were interpolated using single drill holes and an average of three composites, and classified as Inferred Mineral Resources. The nominal spacing for Indicated Mineral Resource estimates was 29.5 m, and 66.9 m for Inferred Mineral Resource estimates. Additional statistics are reported in Table 14-12.

Vizsla provided wireframes for mined-out areas at Napoleon, Tajitos, and Cordon del Oro. The Mineral Resource estimate for Animas was defined below the known mining area. Based on these wireframes, the resource classification code assigned was 999 and the Mineral Resource was depleted. In addition, an allowance was made for a crown pillar of 5 m below the topographic surface. A Code 5 was assigned to those blocks, and they were excluded from the Mineral Resource.

14.8.2Cut-Off Grade

The cut-off grade used for the 2022 Mineral Resource estimates is 150.0 g/t AgEq based on Vizsla Silver's estimated break-even operating expenditure cost of US$95/t as outlined in Table 14-13. Assumed recoveries were 93% for silver, 90% for gold, and 94% for both lead and zinc. Mineral Resource estimates can be sensitive to the reporting cut-offs used.

14.9Comment on 2022 Mineral Resource Estimate

The QP is of the opinion that the 2022 MRE has been interpolated using industry-accepted modelling techniques, using GEMS. This included geologic input, appropriate block-model cell sizes, grade capping, assay compositing, and reasonable interpolation parameters.

The results have been verified by visual review and statistical comparisons between the estimated block grades and the composites used to interpolate. The IDW2 model has been selected as the best representation of the grade distribution based on the current geological understanding and mineralization. The IDW2 model has been validated with alternate estimation methods. No biases have been identified in the model.

The 2022 MRE conforms to the requirements of the CIM Definition Standards (CIM, 2014). TMAC is unaware of any known environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant factors which could materially impact the 2022 Mineral Resource estimate provided in this Technical Report. The current Mineral Resource estimates are adequate to support mining studies.

Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves and do not necessarily demonstrate economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part of this Mineral Resource estimate will be converted into a Mineral Reserve.

24Other Relevant Data and Information

The Panuco Project has a reasonable potential for economic extraction based on the assumptions presented in this Technical Report. Risks (Table 24-1) and opportunities (Table 24-2) are summarized below.

Table 24-1:Panuco Project Risks

Risk

Explanation/Potential Impact

Possible Risk Mitigation

Variability and complex nature of the geology and mineralization.

Impacts volume and grade continuity.

Additional drilling and refined mineralization controls.

Variation in grade and continuity.

Nuggety nature of silver and gold mineralization

Outlier grade data.

Continuity and grade impact the reasonable potential for economic extraction (mining).

Additional drilling.

Bulk sample to confirm grade and refine assumptions for reasonable potential for economic extraction.

Assumptions used for criteria to determine reasonable prospect for eventual economic extraction.

Assumptions based on current grade continuity and metal prices.

Evaluate different mining options and associated cut-off grades and metal price sensitivity.

Low commodity prices.

Low commodity prices negatively affecting economics.

A focus on efficiency throughout the operation will minimize the economic impact of lower commodity prices.

Metallurgical risk may develop from changes or variation in characteristics of the mill feed material.

Potential detrimental effect on the lead, zinc, silver, and gold recovery. This can include mineral particle size and associations, or rock hardness, which could affect comminution response. Fluctuating extent of grade or mineral oxidation, or potentially detrimental elements such as cadmium and mercury that can impact product concentrate grade and quality.

These risks will be mitigated through more optimization and variability metallurgical testwork to investigate metallurgical response across the whole ore body and different lithologies as recommended in the recommendation section.

Flexible plant design that can account for variation in mill feed.

Elevated cadmium levels in the final zinc concentrate from the sequential lead/zinc flotation.

Cadmium levels of 4,027 g/t were sufficient to trigger the smelter penalty: effect on concentrate quality and payables.

Optimised flotation though additional testwork to minimize Cd deportment into the final products.

Using testwork GRG values for the gravity circuit scale up and design.

Gravity recovery in the operating plant will be derated from the testwork Gravity Recoverable Gold (GRG) value. The scale up inefficiency factor has usually been quoted at a 50% to 80% range which is a factor of plant inefficiencies through variable design and operating practices, but it's also related to the particle size distribution of the GRG.

Detailed consideration of the plant design and investigation into the nature of the GRG itself.

25Interpretation and Conclusions

25.1Interpretations

This Technical Report provides a maiden MRE for the Panuco Project accompanied by an initial metallurgical testwork. The drilling by Vizsla Silver has focused on four Prospect Areas (Figure 25-1): Animas, Cordon del Oro, Napoleon, and Tajitos.

25.1.1Metallurgical Testwork

A preliminary test program has been completed on material from the Napoleon deposit on behalf of Vizsla Silver.

Most of the testing was completed on the Master Composite sample, a lead-zinc composite with high amounts of silver and gold. Conclusions drawn from the conducted metallurgical testwork are presented in Table 25-1.

Table 25-1:Conclusions for Each Studied Option

Testwork Type

Sample

Conclusions

Gravity Concentration

Master Composite

The gravity concentration test on sample of Master Composite at the particle grind size of 63 µm in the Knelson concentrator followed by panning, has yielded 40% Au recovery in the Knelson concentrator and 26% Au recovery in the pan product.

Actual plant operations typically only achieve between 50% and 80% of the testwork GRG value, therefore it is not recommended to include gravity concentration in the flowsheet.

Rougher Testing Sequential Flotation

Master Composite

Open circuit rougher sequential flotation testing has produced:

• Rougher lead concentrate with a recovery of 79% Ag; 80% Au; 93% Pb and 24% Zn, respectively.

• Rougher zinc concentrate with a recovery of up to 9% Ag; 8% Au; 3% Pb and 72% Zn, respectively.

Trend was observed that precious metals recoveries in the lead concentrate have increased with a reduction in particle size as silver and gold recoveries of 80% Ag and 83% Au, respectively, were 7% and 12% higher at the particle grind size of 63 µm.

Precious metals recoveries in the zinc and pyrite concentrates were quite similar for the 63 µm and 140 µm and seemingly unaffected by the difference the particle grinds size.

Rougher Testing Sequential Flotation

Composite G

For the composite G, the decrease in the particle grind size have also resulted in the increased precious metals recovery in the lead concentrate as silver and gold recoveries of 81% Ag and 85% Au, respectively were 4% and 8% higher at the particle grind size of 45 µm.

The opposite was observed when it comes to zinc concentrate where coarser particle grind size of 133 µm has yielded silver and gold recoveries of 19% and 16%, respectively, which was 4% and 8% higher when compared to 133 µm particle grind size.

Precious metals recoveries in the zinc and pyrite concentrates were quite similar for the 63 µm and 140 µm and seemingly unaffected by the difference in the particle grinds size.

Cleaner Testing Sequential Flotation

Master Composite

Open circuit cleaner bulk flotation testing (with one cleaning stage) has produced:

• Cleaner lead concentrate with recoveries of up to 71% for silver (Ag), 76% Au (Au), 87% lead (Pb), and 12% Zn (Zn).

• Cleaner zinc concentrate with recoveries of up to 8% for silver (Ag), 7% Au (Au), 2% lead (Pb), and 71% Zn (Zn).

About 6% of the silver and 3% to 4% of the gold was recovered to the pyrite rougher concentrate.

Elevated levels of cadmium of in excess of 4,000 g/t, who appears to be associated with the sphalerite, were observed in the zinc cleaner concentrates which may incur smelter penalties, as it exceeds threshold limits of 3,000 g/t.

Sample

Conclusions

Rougher Testing Bulk

Master Composite

The bulk concentrate recoveries were 94% Ag and 88% Au, respectively at 63 µm particle grind size.

The increase in the collector/copper sulphate addition have resulted in a higher sulphur recovery, which may be attributed to improved zinc/sphalerite activation.

Cleaner Testing Bulk

Master Composite

Without the regrind, at 63 µm particle grind size, the bulk cleaner concentrate assayed 1,742 g/t Ag and 40 g/t Au and had the recoveries of 87% Ag and 86% Au, respectively.

Cyanidation Leaching Test on Whole Ore and Concentrates

Master Composite

Oxygen sparged whole ore cyanidation tests at 48 hours retention time and particle grind size of 63 µm have resulted in the highest overall gold extraction of 93% Au and 87% Ag, respectively, however it did come with the relatively high sodium cyanide consumptions, measuring about 2.5 kg of NaCN per tonne of feed.

Sequential Flotation followed by Cyanidation of Rougher Pyrite Concentrate

Master Composite

Flotation of a sequential lead and zinc concentrate followed by cyanidation of a pyrite rougher concentrate have resulted in a combined flotation and leach extraction of 87% Au and 83% Ag, respectively.

The Mineral Resource estimates were classified according to the CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (CIM, 2014). The 2022 Mineral Resource estimate was reported at a 150.0 g/t AgEq cut-off grade for Mineral Resources, which are amenable to underground extraction.

The cut-off grade used for the 2022 Mineral Resource estimates is 150.0 g/t AgEq based on Vizsla Silver's estimated break-even operating expenditure cost of US$95/t as outlined in Table 14-13. Assumed recoveries were 93% for silver, 90% for gold, and 94% for both lead and zinc. Mineral Resource estimates can be sensitive to the reporting cut-offs used.

25.2Conclusions

The 2022 Mineral Resource estimate was completed according to CIM best practice guidelines and is reported in accordance with NI 43-101 regulations. The QP believes that the current data presented is an accurate and reasonable representation of the Panuco Project. The QP concluded that the database and mineralization interpretation are of suitable quality to provide the basis for the conclusions and recommendations presented in this Technical Report.

26Recommendations

26.1Mineral Resource Recommendations

The maiden MRE and associated interpretated mineralization provides guidance for continued exploration of the Panuco Project. TMAC recommends the following work that can potentially improve upon the 2022 MRE:

  • Continue drilling on the four Prospect Areas targeting both infill to upgrade resource classification and step-out drilling to expand the Mineral Resource

  • Identify target areas in zones of mineralization outside of the four Prospect Areas to expand the Mineral Resource

  • Collect additional density samples of host lithologies and mineralization

  • Update topography using Lidar survey.

26.2Operations Recommendations

Other engineering and processing work could be carried out to develop the Panuco Project. Ausenco recommends the following work:

  • Additional drilling to collect approximately 500 kg of core samples, spatially and lithologically representing the first five years of a potential mine plan
  • Further metallurgical testwork to better understand the continuity of the Napoleon deposit regarding the metallurgical response and optimize the flowsheet.

In addition, further engineering work including mine design and development are needed.

26.3Budget

The proposed budget associated with the Mineral Resource recommendations is outlined in Table 26-1.

Phase 1: Additional drilling

Additional drilling is required to provide the core samples for the metallurgical testwork.

250,000

Phase 2: Metallurgical testwork

Additional comminution testwork.

120,000 to 150,000

Mineralogy investigation to support both rougher and cleaner flotation testwork.

Optimization of flotation conditions such as regrind size and depressant dosages to achieve better selectivity of metals along with producing higher-grade concentrates.

Bulk and sequential float with and without gravity concentration to investigate whether global gold recovery could be improved with gravity scalping as some gold might be reporting to the flotation gangue material.

Locked cycle flotation testing to better understand the potential grades and recoveries with a circulation of internal streams.

Variability samples metallurgical testwork to understand metallurgical response across the entire ore body and different lithologies.

Conduct further cyanidation testwork, investigating conditions such as sodium cyanide concentration; effect of primary grind size on the extraction; aeration requirements; and addition of lead nitrate to investigate effect on the leach kinetics and extraction rates.

Bulk and sequential float with and without gravity concentration to investigate whether global gold recovery could be improved with gravity scalping as some gold might be reporting to the flotation gangue material.
