Over the last few weeks, silver tested an all-time high of $54.47, climbing about 88% from its 2024 close of $28.99. All as geopolitical and economic uncertainty drove investors into the safe havens of both silver and gold. We have to consider that silver is still undervalued relative to gold. In fact, the current gold-to-silver ratio is about 83:1, which is significantly higher than the historical average of 70:1, which suggests silver has more room to run.
Not only is that bullish for silver, but also for silver-related stocks such as Magma Silver Corp. (TSXV: MGMA) (OTCQB: MAGMF), First Andes Silver Ltd. (TSXV: FAS) (OTC: MSLVF), Silver X Mining Corp. (TSXV: AGX) (OTCQB: AGXPF), Silver Mountain Resources (TSXV: AGMR) (OTCQB: AGMRF), and First Majestic Silver (NYSE: AG) (TSX: AG).
In addition, "Despite recent gains, silver is still cheap compared to gold. Lower U.S. yields, limited availability of physical metal, and robust industrial and investor demand are propelling prices into new territory. With this persistent imbalance between supply and demand, a $100 silver price by the end of 2026 is certainly within reach," Solomon Global analysts said, as quoted by Medium.com.

Magma Silver Corp. just announce the granting of a drill permit to allow drilling on the Jorimina zone and also provides an outline of a proposed exploration plan on the advanced Nin~obamba silver gold project in Peru.
Stephen Barley, Chairman & CEO of Magma stated: “The Nin~obamba project is comprised of three contiguous properties now controlled by Magma, totalling 4,100 hectares: the Jorimina, Randypata, and the Nin~obamba Main. The MINISTERIO DE ENERGI´A Y MINAS in Peru has granted a drill permit to commence drilling on the Jorimina zone. This is an important milestone as drill permits are detailed and require a significant effort to obtain. Our Peruvian-based technical team, led by our General Manager, Carlos Agreda (see news release dated July 9, 2025) and supervised by our Senior Technical Advisor, Jeffrey Reeder, has the experience to apply for drilling permits successfully.
The recent $5,000,000 private placement financing (see news release dated October 23, 2025) has provided Magma with the necessary funding to substantially increase the initial drill program on the Joramina zone. The Joramina zone was the focus of Newmont Corporation's 2011 non-compliant internal report, which detailed a significant gold and silver resource. The Newmont report was based on US$1,200/ounce gold and US$20/ounce silver, the prevailing market prices at the time of the report.”
Drill Permit
The permit was granted by the MINISTERIO DE ENERGI´A Y MINAS in Peru on October 17, 2025. The permit has a duration of fourteen (14) months from the date of issuance. The permit entitles Magma to drill from 20 drill pads. Multiple directional drilling can be completed from each drill pad. Magma believes the permit is sufficient to complete all planned drilling on the Joramina zone. The Company discovered a drift in the Joramina zone that Newmont did not report. During the recently completed Phase 2 work program, testing in and around the drift returned high- grade results, including 10 metres of 2.32 grams gold/tonne and a 5-metre composite returning 4.085 ounces silver/tonne.
Sampling close to the drift on the Joramina zone returned 0.70 metres of 17.41 grams gold/tonne and 13.94 ounces silver/tonne. (see news dated October 30, 2025). The Company may be able to drill from inside the drift, located within the Joramina zone. This would require a modification to the drill permit, which should be readily available.
Proposed Expanded Exploration Program
Magma has allocated US$1,000,000 (CAD$1,400,000) for the Joramina exploration and drill program. This is a significant increase from the original drilling plan and is expected to allow the Company to thoroughly test and confirm the Newmont drilling results. Magma’s experienced technical team is currently planning the entire work program in conjunction with an independent NI 43-101 geologist. Magma will issue a news release outlining the Joramina program, drill location, and timing when it is available.
