• • 1,375 g/t silver equivalent (186.3 g/t silver and 15.63 g/t gold), 1.12% lead and 7.73% zinc over 1.8m from 103.5m

"This news can't come at a better time as silver and gold have been breaking out and the Napoleon results mark our first major high-grade discovery at Panuco. The broad high-grade mineralization in drill hole NP-20-02 attest to the significant potential at the underexplored district. The Company is now fully financed with over C$6 million in the bank and has two drill rigs turning at the project with more results pending. stated President and CEO, Michael Konnert.

Vice President of Exploration Charles Funk commented "These results are a very exciting discovery for Vizsla with multiple veins intersected in drilling containing very high-grade silver, gold and base metals. These holes are the first ever drilled on the Napoleon vein which extends over more than 2 km of strike and hosts multiple small-scale mines and mineralized outcrops. Drilling is ongoing with two deeper holes and a hole in progress 60m to the north of NP-20-03, all which have each intersected veins. Vizsla is continuing to step out to expand and define the footprint of mineralization at Napoleon".

The Napoleon Vein Corridor is located almost entirely on concessions optioned from Rio Panuco which Vizsla has the right to purchase 100% of including the 500 tonne per day El Coco mill, tailings facility, roads, power and permits for a total of US$23,000,000.

Drilling detail

The Napoleon corridor is hosted in weakly magnetic fine-grained diorite and trends approximately north – south. The structure hosts two main quartz veins that are separated by some 10 to 20m metres and appears to dip very steeply to sub-vertical. So far it has been mapped along strike for over 2,000 m. Between the two main veins are a series of smaller splay veins with variable orientations, that are related to dilation along the structure under strike slip movement.

The two main veins are multi-episodal quartz veins, with sections of massive white to greyish quartz as well as local brecciation with clasts of grey quartz, white vein quartz and / or wallrock pieces. The greyish quartz is grey due to the presence of the very fine-grained silver rich sulphide mineral argentite. A later breccia cuts these earlier phases comprising grey quartz supporting polymictic clasts of grey and white quartz along with strong chlorite and common to abundant, fine to medium grained pyrite, sphalerite and galena.

The main high-grade hangingwall vein intersected in holes NP-20-02 and NP-20-03 has a true width of between 3.4-5.3 metres. Other veins intersected require further drilling to confirm true widths as they may equally represent parallel veins or high angle structures to the hanging wall vein.

Hole NP-20-01 failed to reach the target depth when it intersected a void that is likely a decline built at the southern end of the historic Napoleon Mine. The mine workings are inaccessible preventing present day sampling; however, the mine is believed to have been worked up to a depth of 50m below surface.

Hole NP-20-02 was drilled at a steeper angle and was the first intersection of the Napoleon veins. Hole NP-20-03 was angled to the north and intersected the veins 30 metres to the north of hole NP-20-02. Results from both veins are reported in this new release.

Hole NP-20-04 is a steeper vein beneath hole NP-20-03 and intersected the veins ~20-25m down dip. Hole NP-20-04 is a steeper vein beneath hole NP-20-02 and intersected the veins at ~12-20m down dip as the vein steepened more than expected. Samples from both holes have been submitted for analysis and assays are pending.

The drill rig has been moved north and is drilling beneath the old Napoleon mine in hole NP-20-06. The hole is currently in progress and has intersected veins 60m to the north of hole NP-20-03.

About the Panuco project

Vizsla has an option to acquire 100% of the newly-consolidated 9,386.5 Ha Panuco district in southern Sinaloa, Mexico, near the city of Mazatlán. The option allows for the acquisition of over 75 km of total vein extent, a 500 tpd mill, 35 kms of underground mines, tailings facilities, roads, power and permits.

The district contains intermediate to low sulfidation epithermal silver and gold deposits related to siliceous volcanism and crustal extension in the Oligocene and Miocene. Host rocks are mainly continental volcanic rocks correlated to the Tarahumara Formation.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control

Drill core and rock samples were shipped to ALS Limited in Zacatecas, Zacatecas, Mexico and in North Vancouver, B.C. Canada for sample preparation and for analysis at the ALS laboratory in North Vancouver. The ALS Zacatecas and North Vancouver facilities are ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 17025 certified. Silver and base metals were analyzed using a four-acid digestion with an ICP finish and gold was assayed by 30-gram fire assay with atomic absorption ("AA") spectroscopy finish. Overlimits analyses for silver, lead and zinc were re-assayed using an ore-grade four-acid digestion with AA finish.

Control samples comprising certified reference samples, duplicates and blank samples were systematically inserted into the sample stream and analyzed as part of the Company's quality assurance / quality control protocol.
