Vizsla Silver Corp. has appointed Angel Diego Gómez Olmos as Vice President of Government Relations, tasked with managing the company's regulatory affairs in Mexico. Gómez Olmos will focus specifically on navigating the permitting process for the Panuco silver-gold project. This strategic hire aims to leverage the former official's expertise and relationships within federal mining agencies to advance the project toward production.
This appointment comes at a critical time for the Mexican mining sector, as operators navigate a shifting regulatory landscape. By comparison, Vizsla Silver seeks to strengthen its legal standing to avoid the types of regulatory delays seen by peers like First Majestic Silver in previous years, according to industry reports. Market data shows relative stability in regional operating environments despite inflationary pressures, with Mexico's annual inflation rate hitting 4.45% in May 2026 per market data.
