Silver Shortage Drives the Market: Why Silver Viper Is Significantly More Dynamic Than Fresnillo and Pan American Silver

  • Electromobility
  • AI
  • photovoltaics

The silver market is currently reaching its capacity limits. A supply deficit that has persisted for six years, totaling 820 million ounces by the start of this year, is being met with record demand. Key drivers include photovoltaics, electric mobility, and the rapid expansion of data infrastructure. Solar energy alone consumed around 448 million ounces in the first half of 2025, as new cell types require more silver. This drove the price above USD 100 per troy ounce. Against this backdrop, market leaders such as Fresnillo and Pan American Silver must replace their dwindling reserves in established mining regions like Mexico with high-quality resources. This hunger for resources directly impacts companies at the beginning of the value chain. Agile explorers controlling projects in close proximity to existing infrastructure are coming into focus. One such example is Silver Viper Minerals, which is strategically positioned within the Mexican silver sector through its acquisition of the Coneto project and the involvement of Fresnillo as a key shareholder. We highlight the opportunities for investors.

Silver Corrects to USD 65 – Speculators Are Worried, Industry Is Celebrating! Silver North, Infineon, and Micron Technologies in Focus

Incredible! Yesterday, silver fell back to USD 65 after hitting a record high of USD 122 in January. The metal had also hovered around this level in December, before the major futures market coverage frenzy swept through the capital markets. A huge stroke of luck for producers, as margins had improved by USD 70 per ounce within six weeks - a boon also for explorers like Silver North, who were able to assign entirely different values to their resources. A curse, however, for industry, which relies heavily on critical metals and now has almost no capacity left to acquire on open markets. It is conceivable that some industrial sectors will report serious shortages in the coming months. We take a closer look at the silver market and its key players.

What is going on between Elon Musk and JinkoSolar? A team from the world's richest man was reportedly spotted during a visit to JinkoSolar - sparking investor excitement. Positive catalysts would certainly be welcome. The CEO of the operating subsidiary has stepped down, and the company is suffering from the turmoil of the heavily subsidized market. In contrast, the correction in First Majestic Silver and Silver Viper Minerals may be coming to an end. Silver Viper has completed a key acquisition, effectively bringing a potential buyer into its own shareholder base. The CEO has set ambitious targets. Meanwhile, First Majestic Silver has had a rough patch. Could upcoming drill results mark a turning point?

Spain is investing over EUR 400 million in critical raw materials: Deutsche Rohstoff, Group Eleven Resources, and Standard Lithium in focus

Spain is taking the initiative on critical raw materials and has allocated EUR 414 million in public funding. The action plan, which runs through 2030, includes 34 measures aimed at strengthening the exploration, recycling, extraction, and processing of strategically important raw materials. A full EUR 182 million is earmarked for a new national exploration program. This move is noteworthy because Madrid is sending a signal that has long been missing in Europe: securing raw materials is no longer a secondary issue, but a central pillar of industrial policy. Group Eleven Resources could benefit from this shift. The company is currently advancing a zinc-lead-silver project in Ireland, and the stock is gaining momentum. Shares of Deutsche Rohstoff AG have also performed strongly, with analysts seeing further upside potential. And what about investor favorite Standard Lithium?

RENK, Silver Viper, Harmony Gold – Silver and Copper in the Global Commodities Race

  • Mining
  • Silver

  • Commodities
  • Defense
  • Copper

Silver and copper are increasingly becoming key strategic metals in the new industrial era. The global expansion of renewable energy, power grids, and electric mobility is driving demand skyward. At the same time, demand from the defense industry is also growing. This is offset by a supply that is growing ever more slowly. New mines take years to reach production, while existing deposits, in some cases, are showing declining ore grades. Experts are therefore already warning of structural bottlenecks. For producers, this tension between rising demand and limited supply could become a real profit driver.

Gold & silver poised to rise: How investors can profit now with Agnico Eagle Mines, Silver Viper Minerals, and Harmony Gold!

Stock markets have been extremely volatile since the start of the war. They are going up or down on a daily basis. At gas stations, but also in the chemical industry, the consequences are already being felt in the form of higher costs for consumers and industry. But one thing is also clear: in times like these, investors seek safe havens. One beneficiary is the dollar. The greenback has gained ground after a long period of weakness. This appears to be more of a traditional reflex on the part of the markets. Given the high level of US debt, investors have tended to seek refuge in recent years and shift their investments to hard assets such as gold or cash flow-strong stocks. The war appears to have interrupted this debasement trend.

Market volatility has skyrocketed in the wake of new global armed conflicts. This trend is evident across all asset classes. Investors are currently focusing on the price of oil and the question of what impact high prices will have on the real economy. In contrast, precious metal prices are proving to be very robust. With gold trading above USD 5,000 and silver above USD 80, record margins are on the cards for producers such as Barrick and First Majestic, despite rising costs. An investment in exploration company Lahontan Gold, which plans to start production in 2027, appears even more lucrative.

Mining comeback in Europe: Solid returns with Group Eleven Resources, Boliden, and Glencore

  • CriticalMetals

The European raw materials landscape is undergoing a realignment. For decades, the industry relied on cheap imports from overseas. But those days of largely unchallenged globalization are coming to an end. In order to end dependence on uncertain supply chains and ensure the survival of the industry, the focus is shifting to domestic extraction of critical metals. The European Commission has defined clear goals with the Critical Raw Materials Act and the ambitious RESourceEU Action Plan: By 2030, 10% of the mining and 40% of the processing of critical metals should occur within the EU. In this environment, the European zinc and silver sector is making a comeback. While zinc has historically been in demand primarily in the construction industry, it is now indispensable for the corrosion protection of wind turbines. Silver is even becoming a critical industrial metal due to the tremendous boom in artificial intelligence (AI) and the construction of data centers. Ireland, in particular, is establishing itself as a raw materials region in this phase. The country has one of the world's most productive geological provinces for high-grade base metals and boasts excellent geoscientific data from the Tellus program. Established mining giants such as Boliden and Glencore are setting standards, while up-and-coming explorers such as Group Eleven Resources are shining with spectacular discoveries and offering investors extremely lucrative entry opportunities.

Even after a strong 2025, the commodities market in 2026 is more dynamic than ever before, and at the center of this development is a company that has just joined the ranks of top performers. Through smart acquisitions and impressive drilling results in Mexico, Silver Viper Minerals has carved out a position that is causing a stir among experts and investors alike. But while the glamour of gold and silver attracts many, there are strategically important assets operating in the shadow of precious metals, such as United States Antimony, which serve a completely different but essential niche that is becoming increasingly important, especially now in an era of global conflict and geopolitical flashpoints. This field is flanked by heavyweights such as ConocoPhillips, which acts as an anchor of stability in the energy sector. In this report, we highlight why these three very different stocks could be on the move right now in a world of shiny silver, rare metals, and global energy supply, and why they could be an asset to your portfolio.
