Vizsla Silver Advances Panuco Project With Key Contracts and $220 Million in Financing Vizsla Silver has awarded M3 Engineering & Technology an EPCM contract for the process plant and surface infrastructure at its Panuco silver-gold project in Sinaloa, Mexico.
Mining Plus has been appointed to oversee mine design, supported by a $220m finance mandate from Macquarie Bank to help fund project development.

Taken together, the new contracts and the senior government relations hire point to Panuco moving further along the path from study work into development, with a clearer structure around engineering, mine planning and financing.
For investors, the main variables to track are progress on environmental permitting and the timing of the planned mining contract, since any delays or changes in regulatory requirements could affect project schedules and funding needs. Announcement • May 13
