To find the surface area of the prism, we need to calculate the area of each face and then add them all together.

- The base of the prism is a rectangle with dimensions 4 mm by 6 mm. So, the area of the base is 4 mm * 6 mm = 24 mm^2.

- There are two rectangular side faces, each with dimensions 4 mm by 5 mm. So, the total area of the two side faces is 2 * (4 mm * 5 mm) = 40 mm^2.

- There are also two square faces, each with dimensions 4 mm by 4 mm. So, the total area of the two square faces is 2 * (4 mm * 4 mm) = 32 mm^2.

Finally, add the areas of all the faces together to find the total surface area of the prism:

24 mm^2 (base) + 40 mm^2 (side faces) + 32 mm^2 (square faces) = 96 mm^2

Therefore, the surface area of the prism is 96 mm^2.
