07:39 AM EDT, 07/09/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Vizsla Silver ( VZLA ) on Tuesday reported results from six new drill holes targeting the Copala resource area at its flagship Panuco silver-gold project in Mexico.

Highlights include 2,398 grams per tonne (g/t) silver equivalent over 7.00 meters, 1,027 g/t silver equivalent over 7.80 meters and 2,023 g/t silver equivalent over 3.50 meters.

"Ongoing infill drilling at Copala, where initial mining will likely take place, continues to demonstrate exceptional mineral continuity," President and CEO Michael Konnert said.

The company said it will continue its conversion drilling at Copala as it de-risks the project ahead of a maiden preliminary economic assessment scheduled for early third quarter.

Vizsla's share price closed 0.4% higher yesterday to $2.41 on the TSXV.
