Additional Drill Targets Developed At Silver King

VANCOUVER – Prismo Metals Inc. has completed a detailed exploration program at the Black Diamond area of its Silver King Project located in Arizona. Work consisted of mapping and sampling of the area including the Black Diamond copper replacement body and the newly encountered strongly altered felsic intrusion with stockwork veining.  A handheld XRF analyzer was used to complete a soil geochemistry grid and to analyze selected rock samples in a qualitative manner. Additionally, an IP survey was recently initiated over the Silver King land package, with results expected in December.
The soil survey defined a large copper anomaly over the Black Diamond replacement body along with some anomalous gold values. Previous rock samples have shown the copper-gold association of mineralization in replacement mineralization. The soil survey also showed Zn, Pb, Ag and Sb anomalies associated with the felsic intrusion. This intrusion is strongly sericitized and is cut by moderate to strong stockwork quartz veins with locally abundant iron oxides after pyrite.  
XRF analysis of rock samples in the area was also completed. Although XRF analyses on rocks are generally qualitative and are not valid assays as are rock samples assayed by the geochemical laboratories, they do indicate the presence of the metals of interest and are useful as guides to mineralization.
XRF analyses of individual quartz veinlets in the stockwork hosted by the felsic intrusion locally indicate the presence of silver, lead and zinc as well as some antimony.  During the exploration program, Prismo’s geological team took 34 rock chip samples over the area. These samples were submitted to the laboratory with assay results expected.  
Craig Gibson, Chief Exploration Officer, said, “These results confirm Black Diamond as a copper-gold replacement body target as was indicated from previous work, making this area a compelling drill target. The data collected from the felsic intrusion indicated that it is mineralized, a feature that was not indicated in reports from previous work by Fischer Watt in 1980, although they considered it a prime target based on alteration mineralogy and fluid inclusion studies.”
