Episode Description from the Publisher

In this Ask the Expert episode, Lon Shaver, President of Silvercorp Metals, joins Craig Hemke for Sprott Money to discuss the silver price, gold price, mining stocks, supply constraints, production costs, and what could drive the next move in precious metals. Silver remains above historically significant levels, mining supply is difficult to expand, and industrial demand continues to support the long-term outlook. Lon explains why today’s price of silver remains encouraging despite trading below earlier highs, why new mines can take many years to reach production, and how limited new supply could affect the silver market. He also discusses Silvercorp Metals’ low-cost production, expansion plans in China, Ecuador and Kyrgyzstan, drilling programs, and the company’s exposure to silver.
