Pacifica Silver Corp. Completes Acquisition of Claudia Silver & Gold Project

Roberto Resources has completed the acquisition of the Claudia silver and gold project in Mexico and has changed its name to Pacifica Silver Corp. The project has a land package of 11,876 hectares and hosts high-grade silver and gold mineralization in quartz-adularia veins. Previous drilling has confirmed the presence of gold-silver mineralization adjacent to previous workings and tested approximately 2 km of strike length along the Aguilareña vein and part of the nearby Guadalupana vein. The company plans to embark on comprehensive exploration programs to unlock the project's full potential.

Vancouver, British Columbia—Pacifica Silver Corp. (formerly Roberto Resources Inc.) has completed the acquisition of the Claudia silver and gold project located in the historic El Papantón mining district in Durango State, Mexico. The acquisition, announced on July 18, 2025, marks a significant step forward for the company as it changes its name to Pacifica Silver Corp. [1]

The Claudia project encompasses a land package of 11,876 hectares, hosting high-grade silver and gold mineralization in quartz-adularia veins. Previous drilling in 2007 and 2021 has confirmed the presence of gold-silver mineralization adjacent to previous workings and tested approximately 2 km of strike length along the Aguilareña vein and part of the nearby Guadalupana vein. The project also includes several previously identified mineralized zones, with one notable structure, Aguilareña, previously explored by a former operator who developed a 90-metre-deep shaft and three levels of vein excavation.

Pacifica Silver Corp. plans to undertake an 8,000-metre, 25-hole initial drill program in the second half of 2025 to begin testing various targets. The project is drill-ready, with environmental permits granted on August 30, 2021, authorizing 146 drill sites with minimal surface impact. [1]

The acquisition was completed under the terms of a share purchase agreement with Durango Gold Corp., an arms-length private company, and its subsidiary Cielo Azul Resources, S.A. de C.V. In consideration for the acquisition, Pacifica Silver Corp. paid US$10,000 cash and issued 10 million common shares to Durango. Additionally, the company assumed US$651,453 in current accounts payable associated with holding the project and assumed the obligation to make bonus payments to Silverstone Resources, S.A. de C.V. contingent on the future disclosure of National Instrument 43-101-compliant Measured and Indicated resources at the project.

The name change to Pacifica Silver Corp. reflects the company's focus on silver and its overall business strategy to pursue and advance precious metals projects in stable jurisdictions. The new ticker symbol, PSIL, will commence trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange on July 21, 2025. [1]

Pacifica Silver Corp. is led by a proven management team with decades of mining and exploration experience in Mexico. The company is focused on continuing exploration work that has indicated widespread, high-grade copper-gold mineralization hosted within Manto style veins and disseminations at the Janampalla Property located in the Huancavalica Province of Central Perú.
