A 107 kg NaI(Tl) experiment is projected at the Canfranc Underground Laboratory to look for dark matter particles by the annual modulation in their interaction rate. It will consist of 10 crystals selected from a set of 14 that remain underground since 1986. A first stage aiming at background and threshold reduction was performed with a 10.7 kg NaI(Tl) prototype, resulting in a new encapsulation design for the crystals. Low energy gamma sources were used for energy calibration and threshold determination. Background near threshold and natural chains internal contamination of some of the available crystals were studied. Results of the prototype and prospects of the future experiment are presented.
