Prince Silver (CSE:PRNC,OTC:HWTNF) is a Vancouver-based exploration company advancing the Prince Silver project in southeastern Nevada. In July 2025, the company completed the transformational acquisition of Stampede Metals Corporation and rebranded from Hawthorn Resources to Prince Silver Corp. The flagship Prince project is a district-scale, past-producing silver-gold-zinc-manganese carbonate replacement system, historically mined for silver and base metals in the early to mid-1900s.

Fully funded and technically refreshed, the company’s near-term priority is to validate and build upon the 129 historic drill holes (over 16,600 m) completed on the property, with the goal of converting the large JORC-compliant exploration target into a maiden NI 43-101 mineral resource.

A drill program is scheduled to begin in early September 2025, targeting the validation of legacy data, step-outs along mineralized trends, and continuity across the deposit’s multiple mantos, veins, and breccia zones. In parallel, the company will undertake metallurgical test work, geophysical refinement, and updated geological modeling to support a modern pit-constrained resource and underpin a longer-term development strategy.

Company Highlights

• Flagship project: 100 percent ownership of the historic Prince silver mine in Lincoln County, Nevada, an open, near-surface silver-gold-zinc carbonate replacement deposit with a 25 to 43 Mt exploration target and strong historic grades.
• The company’s second project, Stampede Gap, is about 15 km north west of the Prince mine. Stampede Gap is a large porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum with an extensive alteration zone that presents a deep seated exploration target.
• Clean corporate reset: Hawthorn Resources completed the Stampede Metals acquisition and re-listed as Prince Silver Corp. on July 11, 2025, issuing 15 million shares for the acquisition and raising ~C$4 million in gross proceeds to fund drilling.
• Fully funded summer drill program: ~6,500-m reverse-circulation set to begin early Sept 2025 to validate historic holes and step out along strike/dip to expand known mineralization and potential resources. .
• Tight share structure: 45.9 million shares outstanding post-financing; Stampede shareholders voluntarily locked-up for 12 months.
• Experienced, hands-on leadership: President Ralph Shearing, plus new directors Robert Wrixon and Darrell Rader, add mine-building, corporate and capital-markets depth to the company’s leadership team.

Understanding the two faces of AI

While public attention often gravitates toward chatbots and image generators, many of the most impactful AI innovations are systems that optimize supply chains, detect fraud in financial transactions or accelerate drug discovery.

Enterprise AI, as these systems are often referred to, offers solutions to complex challenges that are unique to large corporations, financial institutions and government entities.

A significant portion of Canada’s AI buildout has been focused on institutional or B2B use cases, even if business adoption has been slower compared to the US. The country’s AI approach involves an organized strategy largely guided by the government, conducive to creating AI products and services designed specifically for large organizations.

Canada’s blueprint for AI adoption within federal departments is laid out in a report released earlier this year, which lists building a central AI capacity as the first of four key priority areas.

A related initiative, the Canadian Sovereign AI Compute Strategy, outlines how Canada will ensure it has the physical computing capacity to compete globally and maintain data sovereignty.

It includes a C$2 billion investment to build and provide access to domestic AI computing power and infrastructure. This initiative is a key focus for Evan Solomon, Canada’s minister of AI and digital innovation.

Cohere, a privately owned leading Canadian AI company that specializes in enterprise-focused large language models, exemplifies the country’s strength in this space.

Cohere’s B2B AI strategy takes off

Founded in 2019, Cohere has become a prime example of a successful B2B strategy. The company develops highly specialized, institutional AI solutions for industries like finance, healthcare and logistics.

Its focus on privacy and security enables it to serve large markets needing specialized and secure solutions, providing enterprise-grade large language models and tools for custom AI applications.

Underscoring its growing success, Cohere secured US$500 million in an August funding round led by Canadian funds Radical Ventures and Inovia Capital, bringing its valuation to US$6.8 billion. The company has formed working relationships with several tech industry giants, including Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) and SAP (NYSE:SAP), and has onboarded former executives from Uber Technologies (NYSE:UBER) and Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META). Global consulting firm McKinsey also works with Cohere to help its clients integrate generative AI into their operations.

A key part of Cohere’s work is Cohere North, an enterprise-ready AI platform that Dell Technologies (NYSE:DELL) began offering to its enterprise customers this past May as part of a complete AI package.

In the financial sector, Cohere and the Royal Bank of Canada (TSX:RY,NYSE:RY) have partnered to introduce North for Banking, a secure generative AI platform designed to enhance productivity and data security specifically within the financial services sector. A January press release emphasizes the goal of speeding generative AI solutions.

This summer, Cohere teamed up with Bell Canada (TSX:BCE,NYSE:BCE) to supply specialized AI models to government and enterprise customers, with Bell providing the infrastructure layer with its AI Fabric network of data centers.

BUZZ High Performance Computing, a subsidiary of Canadian digital infrastructure company Hive Digital Technologies (TSXV:HIVE,NASDAQ:HIVE), contributes to the Cohere-Bell endeavor by providing NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) GPU clusters as the foundational hardware layer for large-scale AI workloads.

Cohere has also received backing from the Canadian government, with Ottawa signing a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the company to integrate AI into public services on August 19.

The non-binding agreement acknowledges the company’s public sector ambitions and the government’s interest in leveraging AI for productivity and domestic sourcing.

According to Cohere co-founder and CEO Aidan Gomez, this MOU represents “the beginning, hopefully, of our technology being rolled out quite broadly within the Canadian government.”

Cohere struck a similar agreement with the UK government in June.

Government support for Canadian AI ventures

Canada’s approach to AI is built on stable, institutional-grade solutions and is championed by the administration of Prime Minister Mark Carney, offering a nuanced and attractive proposition for discerning investors.

Focusing on the B2B market provides a foundation of stability, as it offers stable, predictable revenue through multimillion-dollar, long-term contracts and full-stack solutions that ensure customer loyalty and economic resilience.

Many investments also have government support, providing a somewhat “de-risked” play for investors.

The Carney administration has made public commitments to incorporate AI into the public sector, promised to provide tax incentives for companies and said it will slash regulatory red tape on AI infrastructure projects like data centers.

The Department of Finance has already introduced draft reforms to the Scientific Research and Experimental Development program that would extend refundable tax credits to Canadian public companies.

Finally, the strategy is buoyed by a robust domestic investment landscape.

Canadian investors have historically provided strong financial backing for homegrown AI startups. Firms like BDC Capital, Real Ventures and MaRS Investment Accelerator Fund have taken the lead in terms of deal count, demonstrating a strong, homegrown commitment to fostering the Canadian AI ecosystem from its earliest stages.

Canada’s quiet AI leadership

Canada’s stealthy AI strategy is cementing its role as a quiet yet formidable force in the global AI landscape.

Companies like Cohere, bolstered by initiatives such as AXL’s initiative to launch 50 Canadian AI companies in the next five years, underscore a commitment to developing and retaining Canadian AI talent and intellectual property.

For discerning investors, this focus on stable, institutional solutions offers a significant and differentiated long-term growth story beyond the consumer AI buzz.

The Punitaqui copper mine is a producing asset operated by Battery Mineral Resources (TSXV:BMR; OTCQB:BTRMF), on which Electric Royalties holds a 0.75 percent gross revenue royalty (GRR). Located in the Coquimbo Region of Chile, the mine benefits from four satellite copper deposits, strong infrastructure, and established processing facilities.

The mine is permitted for 100,000 tonnes per month of processing capacity, with regional exploration potential that could further extend its operational life and increase production.

In July 2025, Battery Mineral Resources reported that its Chilean subsidiary, Minera BMR SpA, had received unanimous approval of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Los Mantos Copper Plant in Punitaqui, Chile. This extends the facility’s operational life by up to ten years and supports hundreds of jobs in the Punitaqui and Ovalle communities.

Authier Lithium Project (Pre-production) – Canada

The Authier lithium project is a key lithium asset in Quebec, Canada, operated by Sayona Mining (ASX:SYA). Electric Royalties holds a 0.5 percent gross metal royalty (GMR) on part of the deposit. This project is a major component of Sayona’s integration plan with North American Lithium (NAL), which commenced production in early 2023. Authier is expected to provide a stable supply of lithium for North America’s growing EV battery industry, aligning with the push for localized supply chains.

The Authier lithium royalty is expected to be integrated into the producing North American Lithium (NAL) mine operated by Sayona Mining, which is set to merge with Piedmont Lithium. According to NAL’s Feasibility Study, the integration of Authier has the potential to contribute to Electric Royalties’ cash flow in the near term.

Battery Hill Manganese Project (Prefeasibility Stage) – Canada

The Battery Hill manganese project, located in New Brunswick, Canada, is an advanced-stage project operated by Manganese X Energy. Electric Royalties holds a 2 percent GMR on the project, which is currently undergoing a prefeasibility study. The asset is well-positioned to support the growing demand for high-purity manganese, a critical component in EV batteries and energy storage technologies. Recent metallurgical testing has demonstrated strong recovery rates, further increasing its economic potential.

Mont Sorcier Vanadium Project – Canada

The Mont Sorcier vanadium project in Quebec, Canada, is operated by Cerrado Gold, with Electric Royalties holding a 1 percent vanadium GMR. Acquired when the project only had a resource estimate, Mont Sorcier has since advanced through additional metallurgical testing in partnership with Glencore and is now progressing through feasibility and permitting, with a Feasibility Study targeted for Q1 2026. As a large iron-vanadium deposit, the project has the potential to supply vanadium for both steel production and the growing vanadium redox flow battery sector, positioning it as a strategically important long-term asset.

Zonia Copper Project – USA

The Zonia copper project, located in Arizona, USA, is operated by World Copper (TSXV:WCU). Electric Royalties holds a 0.5 percent GRR on Zonia, with an option to add 1 percent GRR on Zonia North. Zonia is an oxide copper deposit with near-surface, leachable ore, making it a low-cost, open-pit mining opportunity. The project has undergone resource expansion, and a feasibility study is targeted for completion in 2025. Given the strong US push for domestic copper production, Zonia is well-positioned to benefit from critical minerals policies supporting infrastructure and electrification efforts.

The Zonia copper royalty, one of the leading copper oxide projects in North America, is being acquired by Plata Latina Minerals Corporation with plans to move toward construction in the near to medium term following closing of the transaction. World Copper reported last fall that the resource at Zonia nearly doubled.

Seymour Lake – Canada

The Seymour Lake lithium project in Ontario, Canada, is subject to a 1.5 percent NSR royalty held by the company. Acquired in an all-share transaction valued at C$1 million, the project has advanced significantly under operator Green Technology Metals (ASX:GT1), which has raised more than C$70 million and secured a C$100 million LOI with the Canadian government. Since acquisition, Seymour Lake has progressed from a historical resource to a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) and resource upgrade. In February 2025, Green Technology Metals released an updated PEA assessing Seymour Lake on a standalone basis, following earlier combined development studies with the Root Project. A pre-feasibility study is underway.

Coal remains dominant

Although the dataset highlights the role of critical minerals in the energy transition, it also shows that coal remains the single most common mined commodity by number of facilities.

Coal accounts for 42 percent of all mines, followed by gold at 17 percent, copper at 12 percent, and iron ore at 9 percent.

The prevalence of coal mines contrasts with global climate goals, but also reflects the legacy infrastructure of energy systems and the uneven pace of transition.

Overall, Asia hosts the largest number of coal, copper, and iron ore mines, while North and Central America contain the highest number of gold mines.

Playing the long game

ICMM officials stressed that the release of the dataset is just a first step in a multi-year effort to improve transparency and support evidence-based policymaking in the sector. Alongside the full dataset, which draws on proprietary sources, ICMM published a public version covering 8,508 facilities.

Dhawan said the council hopes the data will “continue to expand and improve through partnerships” while building on key sustainability indicators in the coming months.

More crucially, industry observers have long criticized the scarcity of comprehensive, public data on the sector. Without standardized information, they argue, it is difficult to evaluate the social and environmental impacts of mining or even craft effective regulations.

ICMM’s initiative, though still limited by licensing restrictions on some proprietary datasets, represents one of the most ambitious attempts to date to assemble a global picture of the industry. The council said it would work with partners to expand the dataset and incorporate indicators on sustainability performance.

Silver’s recent price history

After its 2011 peak, silver’s price pulled back over the following years before settling between US$15 and US$20 for much of the second half of last decade. An upward trend in the silver price started in mid-2020, when it was spurred on by the economic uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. The price of silver breached the key US$26 level in early August 2020, and soon after tested US$30. However, it failed to make substantial progress past that.

Silver price chart, September 2, 2005, to September 2, 2025.

Chart via SilverPrice.org.

In the spring of 2023, the silver price surged by 30 percent, briefly rising above US$26 in early May; however, the precious metal cratered back down to US$20.90 in early October. Later that month, silver advanced toward the US$23 level on the back of safe-haven demand due to the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas war.

Following remarks from US Federal Rerserve Chair Jerome Powell, speculation about interest rate reductions sent the price of silver to US$25.48 on November 30, its highest point for the fourth quarter.

After starting 2024 on a low note, the white metal saw gains in March on rising Fed rate cut expectations. The resulting upward momentum led silver to reach a Q1 high of US$25.62 on March 20 before breaking through the US$30 mark on May 17. The silver price reached a then 12 year high of US$32.33 on May 20. In Q3, the metal’s price slid down below the US$27 mark to as low as US$26.64 by August 7 alongside its industrial cousin copper.

Heading into Q4 2024, silver reversed course to the upside, tracking the record breaking moves in the gold price. Silver once again breached the US$30 level on September 13 and continued higher. On October 21, the silver price moved as high as US$34.20 during the trading day, up more than 48 percent since the start of the year and its highest level in 12 years. However, silver spent the rest of the year in decline, bottoming out at US$28.94 on December 30.

Silver price in 2025

The silver price experienced a momentum shift at the start of 2025, breaking through the US$30 barrier as early as January 5, and reached US$31.31 by January 29. The metal continued to post gains through much of February and March, climbing to US$32.94 on February 20 and then peaking at its quarterly high of US$34.21 on March 28.

Silver price chart, September 2, 2024, to September 2, 2025.

Following US President Donald Trump’s tariff announcements on April 2, silver slumped to below US$30. While the Trump administration’s tariff policies have been largely beneficial for safe-haven assets like precious metals, there were concerns that the threat of tariffs could weaken industrial demand, which could cool price gains in the silver market.

Yet those concerns were pushed to the back burner as recent economic and geopolitical events have raised analysts’ expectations of a September rate cut by the Fed. The benchmark rate has not changed since November 2024.

On June 5, the silver price rose to a 13 year high of US$36.05 in early morning trading, before retreating toward the US$35.50 mark. By June 16, the white metal had broken through the US$37 mark for the first time since May 2011.

In July, increasing geopolitical strife in the Middle East and Russia-Ukraine coupled with a positive outlook for China’s solar power industry proved price positive for both silver’s precious metals and industrial angles.

The silver price overtook the US$39 level to reach US$39.24 on July 22.

These same forces, coupled with the nearly unanimous rate cut expectations, launched the price of silver to over US$40 on August 31 for the first time since 2011, and by September 3 it had climbed as high as US$41.45.

Silver supply and demand dynamics

Market watchers are curious as to whether the silver price will continue its upward trajectory in 2025. Only time will tell, and it will depend on the white metal’s ability to remain above the critical US$30 level.

Like other metals, the silver spot price is most heavily influenced by supply and demand dynamics. However, as the information above illustrates, the silver price can be highly volatile. That’s partially due to the fact that the metal is subject to both investment and industrial metal demand within global markets.

In other words, it’s bought by investors who want it as a store of wealth, as well as by manufacturers looking to use it for different applications that are incredibly varied. For example, silver has diverse technological applications and is used in devices like batteries and catalysts, but it’s also used in medicine and in the automotive industry.

In terms of supply, the world’s three top producers of the metal are Mexico, China and Peru. Even in those countries silver is usually a by-product — for instance, a mine producing primarily gold or lead might also have silver output.

The Silver Institute’s latest World Silver Survey, put together by Metals Focus, outlines a 0.9 percent increase in global mine production to 819.7 million ounces in 2024. This was in partly the result of a return to operations at Newmont’s (TSX:NGT,NYSE:NEM,ASX:NEM) Peñasquito mine in Mexico following a suspension of activity brought about by strike action among workers and improved recoveries out of Fresnillo (LSE:FRES,OTC Pink:FNLPF) and MAG Silver’s (TSX:MAG,NYSEAMERICAN:MAG) Juanicipio. Silver output also increased in Australia, Bolivia and the US.

The firm is forecasting a 1.9 percent rise in global silver mine production to 823 million ounces in 2025. Much of that growth is expected to come out of Mexico, and it is also projecting output will rise in Chile and Russia.

Lower production from Australia and Peru will offset some of these gains.

Looking at demand, Metals Focus sees growth in 2025 flatlining as industrial fabrication takes a hit from the global tariff war. This could be tempered by an anticipated rebound in demand from physical investment in silver bars and coins.

The silver market is expected to experience a substantial deficit of 117.6 million ounces in 2025, amounting to the sixth straight year of supply shortage for the metal.

Investor takeaway

While silver has neared US$50 multiple times, including its all-time high, it’s anyone’s guess whether it will reach those heights once again. Many commentators say prospects are bright for silver, and investors will no doubt be watching to see how the metal fares.

Frankfurt:6YL) (TSXV:WLR)(Frankfurt:6YL)(‘Walker Lane’) announces a drill campaign has commenced on its Silverknife Property that is fully funded by Coeur Silvertip Holdings, Ltd. (‘Coeur‘), a subsidiary of Coeur Mining, Inc. (NYSE:CDE), pursuant to the terms of an option agreement where Coeur can earn an initial 75% interest that can be increased to a 100% stake in the Property. The proposed drill program comprises of five holes with total meterage of approximately 1,200 meters at three sites. Additional work by Coeur will be focused on completing groundwork for future permitting of the Tootsee River North Zone and the other prospective zone for advanced exploration and possible drilling in 2026 and beyond.

‘We are very pleased to have the Coeur team executing and funding exploration as they have a huge amount of expertise in CRD systems. We believe it is a significant advantage to our shareholders to have their team executing and funding exploration at Silverknife,’ stated Kevin Brewer, P.Geo., President and CEO of Walker Lane. ‘We identified the large areas of exploration potential at Silverknife and Coeur started in 2024 to utilize that data and integrate it into their own data to establish a minerals systems approach. This preliminary program will further the understanding of these potentially large CRD systems in the Silvertip region. We see this as the first major step to uncovering the significant potential of the Silverknife Prospect. A project like this with such large areas to explore requires a multi-year exploration commitment. Considering the large area under investigation with this limited program, if mineralization is intersected it could be a game changer.’

The drill program is a preliminary examination testing the possible western extent of the prospective geology and mineralization of the Silverknife Prospect in the Silverknife Central Zone. The program is designed to:

• Test the down-dip extension of the Silverknife Prospect including testing for new parallel ore zones to the existing two stacked ore zones;
• An initial examination of the structural complexity of the Silverknife Central Zone and possible contact relationships between the Rosella Limestone Formation (a highly prospective target for CRD mineralization) with the granodioritic Cassiar Intrusive;
• Conduct an initial test of coincident gravity and magnetic anomalies that are quite large and are associated with cross cutting fault structures suggesting an ideal setting for CRD and skarn mineralization; and,
• Understand the geology of the metasediments in the deeper part of the Silvertip sedimentary package.

The Silverknife Property is located in north-central British Columbia and is located immediately west of Coeur’s Silvertip Mine, one of the highest-grade CRD silver-lead-zinc-critical mineral projects in the world. The Property shows considerable promise to host a CRD deposit. It already hosts the Silverknife Prospect which extends westwards from the Silvertip property into the Silverknife property. The Company has also issued several information releases pertaining to the identification of three other areas of exploration prospectivity within the Silverknife property.
