What do you see as the key risks and challenges facing your company at the moment and how are you overcoming these?

The biggest challenge Vizsla is currently facing relates to global macroeconomic themes and broader market trends. Vizsla remains committed to becoming the industry’s next tier 1 silver developer, and as such, continues to aggressively advance the Panuco district through resource expansion/discovery-based drilling, engineering trade-offs, and initial scoping studies.

What do you think makes your company such a compelling investment?
