Summary

  • Very experienced team (exploration and mine building), Technical Advisor and significant shareholder Peter Megaw
  • Underexplored 1,420ha greenfield Hot Breccia project in Arizona, adjacent to former Christmas Mine and nearby the colossal Resolution deposit
  • Prismo Metals management believes Hot Breccia could represent the same geological concept as the Resolution deposit at depth, combined with evidence pointing towards mineralization directly on the other side of an intrusion, separating Hot Breccia from the Christmas deposit
  • This evidence encompasses information about sampling, mapping, stratigraphy and mineralization at depth
  • Known historic intercepts include 26m @ 0.54%Cu, 20m @ 1.4%Cu, 8m @ 1.73% Cu plus 5m @ 1.4% Cu, but most data on grades from historic drilling are missing.

As mixed macro-economic numbers continue to confuse the Federal Reserve, there seems to be growing consensus that the first rate cut might be in the cards for September, and the European counterpart is planning to cut rates even earlier.

With conflicts around the world not exactly working towards a solution, with Taiwan potentially entering the mix since China wasn’t too happy with the speech of the Taiwanese president, gold remains strong above US$2,300/oz despite rumors swirling around of a first rate cut in September this year.

With the gold price holding strong above US$2,300/oz levels, perhaps due to the Russia and Israel conflicts aggravating while inflation increases again - thus delaying timing of upcoming rate cuts by the Fed –  Westward Gold Inc. (WG.CSE) is progressing on the exploration front and recently announced positive sampling results for Toiyabe and East Saddle, after raising an oversubscribed and non-brokered sum of C$1.66M last month.
