Company Description
Pacifica Silver Corp. (OTCQB: PAGFF; CSE: PSIL) is a Canadian resource company focused on precious and base metal exploration. According to the company’s public disclosures, Pacifica Silver is led by a management team with decades of mining and exploration experience in Mexico and is advancing early‑stage and brownfields projects with a focus on silver, gold and copper.
Core Focus: Claudia Silver-Gold Project in Durango, Mexico
Pacifica Silver states that its primary asset is the 100% owned Claudia Silver-Gold Project located in Durango State, Mexico. The project spans approximately 11,876 hectares and covers most of the historic El Papantón Mining District, where at least nine small mines operated during the 20th century. Company disclosures note that since 1990, sampling and drilling on the property have returned high-grade silver and gold intercepts across multiple vein systems, while only about 10% of more than 30 kilometres of known veins have been drill tested.
The Claudia Project is described as featuring high-grade silver and gold mineralization within quartz-adularia veins and breccias, hosted along multiple northwest-striking structures that form an extensive horsetail-style structural complex. Four principal veins and numerous offshoots have been identified, including the Aguilareña, Guadalupana, Veta Central, and Veta Justina areas, as well as additional targets such as Mark Twain, Veta West, Tres Reyes, Pinolera, La Concepcion, Providencia, Mina Vieja and Mina de Oro.
Exploration Strategy and Project Work
Based on the company’s news releases, Pacifica Silver is pursuing a multi‑phase drilling and property‑wide exploration program at Claudia. A Phase I diamond drill campaign of approximately 8,000 metres was initiated to expand zones of known high‑grade silver‑gold mineralization along the Aguilareña, Guadalupana and Veta Central veins and to test previously undrilled targets such as Mark Twain, Veta West and Veta Justina. Initial Phase I drill results reported by the company include high‑grade gold and silver intercepts in holes such as 25CLAU037D and 25CLAU039D along the Aguilareña vein, as well as mineralized intervals at Veta Central and other structures.
The company subsequently reported completing Phase I drilling with 29 holes and nearly 8,000 metres drilled, and announced plans for a Phase II drill program of about 12,000 metres using three drill rigs. According to Pacifica Silver, Phase II is designed to step out from higher‑grade intercepts at Aguilareña North, extend mineralization at the Guadalupana vein, continue testing Veta Central, and initiate drilling in the southern portion of the property at areas such as Veta Justina, Mina Vieja and Mina de Oro, where surface sampling has returned high silver and gold grades.
In parallel with drilling, Pacifica Silver has outlined a program of systematic geological mapping and surface rock sampling across the district. Company disclosures describe work to map historical mine workings, identify additional vein outcrops and refine the structural and lithological controls on mineralization. The company has also reported completing high‑resolution LiDAR mapping and drone‑based orthophoto surveys over thousands of hectares along the main structural corridor, as well as initiating a 27 line‑kilometre induced polarization and resistivity (IP/Res) survey to detect chargeability anomalies associated with mineralized veins and to identify new targets.
Historical Work and Vein Potential
Pacifica Silver’s technical disclosures reference historical drilling and sampling by previous operators, including Durango Gold and Compania Minera Bacis, which defined a historical resource in parts of the Aguilareña and Guadalupana veins and documented high‑grade silver‑gold intercepts. The company notes that drilling by prior operators in 2007 and 2021 confirmed high‑grade mineralization near historical mine workings over approximately 2 km of strike along Aguilareña and adjacent structures.
Recent surface rock‑chip sampling results reported by Pacifica Silver include assays with multi‑gram gold and multi‑hundred‑gram silver values from veins in the Veta Justina, Mina Vieja, Guadalupana and Veta Central areas. The company states that these results extend the silver‑gold potential south of historical workings and support the definition of several new high‑priority drill targets.
Additional Property: Janampalla Copper-Gold Project in Peru
In addition to Claudia, Pacifica Silver reports holding an option to acquire a 100% interest in the Janampalla Property located in the Huancavalica Province of central Peru. According to the company, exploration work at Janampalla has indicated widespread, high‑grade copper‑gold mineralization hosted within manto‑style veins and disseminations. The company has stated that it is focused on continuing exploration at this property.
Capital Markets and Listings
Pacifica Silver has disclosed that its common shares trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol "PSIL". The company also announced that its shares commenced trading on the OTCQB marketplace in the United States under the symbol "PAGFF", providing an additional venue for investors to access the stock. The company has described the OTCQB as a venture market for early‑stage and growth companies that meet specific reporting and verification standards.
Corporate Governance and Incentive Programs
Pacifica Silver has reported corporate developments such as the appointment of a Chairman of the Board, a President and a Vice President of Exploration, each with extensive experience in natural resource exploration and project development, particularly in Mexico. The company has also announced the issuance of incentive stock options to directors, officers and consultants under its equity incentive plan, with the stated objective of aligning leadership interests with those of shareholders and supporting long‑term company development.
Company Positioning
Across its public communications, Pacifica Silver characterizes itself as a Canadian resource company focused on advancing the Claudia Silver‑Gold Project in Durango, Mexico, and on exploring the Janampalla copper‑gold property in Peru. The company emphasizes the combination of historical mining activity, extensive but only partially drilled vein systems, and modern exploration methods as key elements of its exploration thesis.
