ALN had the privilege of advising Vizsla Silver Corp. (TSX: VZLA, NYSE: VZLA, Frankfurt: 0G3) on its recent transaction to acquire ten mining claims totaling 2,378 hectares from Minera Fresnillo S.A. de C.V., a subsidiary of Fresnillo plc. This deal, announced on December 18, 2025, from Vancouver, strengthens Vizsla Silver’s strategic position in the highly prospective Panuco-San Dimas corridor in Mexico. Our team provided comprehensive guidance on key mining, corporate, and Mexican regulatory matters, ensuring compliance with the constantly evolving legal and permitting framework.
Of these claims, seven are strategic and cover 1,734 hectares adjacent to the flagship Pánuco project, encompassing prospective areas or potential extensions of veins with known mineralization. This acquisition not only expands Vizsla Silver’s exploration land package but also includes mineralized structures with a history of production, some of which are incorporated into the recent Pánuco Feasibility Study. We supported the Company’s strategic objectives by validating alignment with Mexican mining regulations and optimizing the transaction structure, which involves a US$2,000,000 cash payment and the issuance of US$4,000,000 in common shares to Fresnillo.
Vizsla Silver continues to stand out as one of the most active and sophisticated precious metals companies operating in Mexico, with a focus on growing its resource base and enhancing future mine economics. As strategic advisors, we ensured this operation advances high-priority exploration targets, potentially elevating the total resource and strengthening upcoming technical updates, all under the rigorous regulatory scrutiny of the sector.
At ALN, we specialize in mining transactions, project acquisitions, joint ventures, and regulatory strategy, accompanying junior, mid-tier, and major mining companies throughout the lifecycle of their projects in Mexico. Our expertise enables us to navigate local complexities with precision, maximizing value for our clients.
We deeply appreciate the trust and collaboration of Vizsla Silver. We stand ready to continue supporting its trajectory of success in the region.
