Prismo Metals Mobilizes Drill to Palos Verdes

Vancouver, April 25, 2023 - Prismo Metals Inc. (CSE: PRIZ) (OTCQB: PMOMF) ("Prismo" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed a contract for the upcoming drill program of a minimum of 2,500 meters at its Palos Verdes Project in the Panuco mining district of Sinaloa State, Mexico and drilling will begin in a few days. The Palos Verdes property is contiguous to the Panuco silver-gold project of Vizsla Silver Corp.

The drill program is designed to test the 65% of the strike length of the Palos Verdes vein that has not yet been drilled. It is believed that potential for a large ore shoot is present similar to the drilling accomplished by Vizsla Silver on their adjacent land package is present on Prismo's concession. Previous drilling has intersected high grade mineralization with the best intercept of 2,336 g/t Ag and 8.42 g/t Au over a true width estimated at 0.8 meters within a larger mineralized interval with 1,098 g/t Ag and 3.75 g/t Au over a true width of 2.3 meters (see Prismo's news release dated September 30, 2020).

"Following Vizsla Silver's strategic investment in Prismo in January 2023, when they acquired a 10.1% ownership stake in our Company, we have worked with their technical team in Mexico to modify our technical data collection procedures to comply with theirs and plan this next phase of drilling," said Dr. Craig Gibson, President and CEO of the Company.

"The upcoming drill program will begin by testing the Palos Verdes vein to the northeast of the previous intercepts, initially with shallow drilling to confirm the orientation of the vein and followed by deeper holes. The drill program will consist of ten to twelve holes and is expected to last about two months," he stated.

"Vizsla is pleased to see renewed exploration drilling on the Palos Verdes Vein located in the eastern portion of the Panuco district," commented Michael Konnert, President, and CEO of Vizsla Silver. "While Vizsla is currently focused on expanding and upgrading its robust resource base in the western portion of the district, exploration conducted by Prismo at Palos Verdes will serve to advance the geologic understanding in the east, where the district remains largely unexplored."

The Palos Verdes vein originates on Vizsla's concession to the south-west of the Palos Verdes concession and has 750 meter of strike length on Prismo's ground (Fig. 1).

The Company recently completed a mapping and sampling program in the eastern portion of the Palos Verdes concession to better define the orientation of the main vein as well as several subsidiary structures that were previously recognized. Eight samples were taken on the Palos Verdes concession and several others were taken on adjacent concessions, yielding anomalous precious metals values of as much as 39.9 g/t Ag and 0.244 g/t Au in the area to be drilled initially (Table 1, Fig. 2).

QA/QC

Samples taken by Prismo are analyzed by multielement ICP-AES and MS methods by ALS Group, an internationally recognized analytical service provider. Gold is analyzed as part of the ICP package using a 25-gram digestion. Certified Reference Materials including standard pulps and coarse blank material are inserted in the sample stream at regular intervals.

About Palos Verdes

The Palos Verdes project is located in the historic Pánuco-Copala silver-gold district in southern Sinaloa, Mexico, approximately 65 kilometers NE of Mazatlán, Sinaloa, in the Municipality of Concordia. The Palos Verdes concession (claim) covers 700 meters of strike length of the Palos Verdes vein, a member of the north-easterly trending vein family located in the eastern part of the district outside of the area of modern exploration. Shallow drilling (<100m) conducted in 2018 on the Palos Verdes Vein was targeted 30 to 50 meters beneath largely barren vein outcrops and cut a well mineralized multistage vein two to seven metres wide with narrow intervals of high-grade precious metal values and subordinate base metals (see table of intercepts at www.prismometals.com). This mineralization is open in all directions and the currently planned drilling program is designed to follow it along strike and to depth.
