NioBay Confirms Receipt of an Exploration Permit for its James Bay Niobium Project

Niobay Metals Inc. (‘ NioBay’ or the ‘ Company’ ) ( TSX-V: NBY) ( OTCQB: NBYCF ) confirms receipt of a notice from the Ontario government. This notice announced the granting of a new exploration permit for the James Bay Niobium Project located 42 km south of the town of Moosonee, Ontario. It should be noted that NioBay also holds a mining lease which is valid until October 2028.

Permits and Work
This permit is valid for three years and will allow for the resumption and completion of the drilling campaign that was suspended at the request of the Moose Cree First Nation (‘MCFN’) on March 17, 2022. The new exploration campaign addresses the community’s concerns about water management by modifying the drilling pattern to move away from South Bluff Creek. This permit will require a helicopter-borne campaign and strict water and drilling mud management. These requirements were met by the Company during the last drilling campaign.

Land Acknowledgement
NioBay’s Board of Directors acknowledges that the James Bay Niobium Project is part of Treaty 9 and constitutes the core territory of the Moose Cree First Nation. We respect the Indigenous rights and interests of Moose Cree and the Treaty 9 Indigenous communities.

Message from the President and Chief Executive Officer of NioBay Metals on Crevier
‘The geopolitical context has changed significantly over the past two years regarding critical and strategic minerals; we consider that this permit was granted with this in mind, which is to be able to count on Canadian metals to supply our supply chains in the country. We acknowledge this permit, but we do not intend to conduct the next exploration program without the contribution of members of the local community. Our modus operandi will be the same as for our various projects elsewhere in Canada, namely to involve the local community in the planning and execution of the work. It is a priority for the Company to work with the MCFN to advance this exploration work,’ said Jean-Sébastien David, geologist, President and CEO of NioBay.

Qualified Person

This press release has been reviewed and approved by Jean-Sébastien David, P.Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. Mr. David is President and Chief Executive Officer of NioBay.

About Niobay Metals Inc.

NioBay aims to become a leader in the development of low-carbon mines and responsible water and wildlife management practices, while prioritizing the environment, social responsibility, good governance and the inclusion of all stakeholders. The top priority, which is critical to this success, is the consent and full participation of Indigenous communities in the territories or ancestral lands on which the Corporation operates. The Company holds, among other things, a 100% interest in the James Bay Niobium project located 45 km south of Moosonee in the James Bay Lowlands of Ontario. NioBay also holds a 72.5% interest in the Crevier niobium and tantalum project located in Quebec on the Nitassinan territory of the Pekuakamiulnuatsh First Nation.

About Niobium

Niobium is an element of natural origin. It is a ductile, malleable metal that is highly resistant to corrosion. Because it enhances properties and functionality, niobium is used in a wide range of materials and applications in the mobility, structural, and energy sectors. Niobium transforms materials. When added to materials such as steel, glass, and aluminum castings, niobium makes them more efficient and reduces their impact on the environment, while providing other benefits like better performance, increased safety, and greater value.

Senate Democrats block GOP plan again to reopen government as military pay deadline looms

Senate Democrats blocked Republicans’ plan to reopen the government for a seventh time on Thursday as payday deadlines fast approach for the military.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and most of his caucus have so far shown no signs of breaking from their position as the shutdown entered its ninth day. Republicans are also similarly unwilling to relent, further solidifying the stalemate in the upper chamber.

But a key deadline that lawmakers must hit to ensure that service members get their paychecks is fast approaching and will likely be missed unless a deal is struck.

Lawmakers have until Oct. 13, the deadline to process payments for the military’s payroll, to fund the government, or service members will miss their first paycheck. Senate staff members are soon after, with their next expected payday coming Oct. 20.

Those looming deadlines have not made either side flinch, however.

‘I’m concerned about everybody going without pay. We need to open the government back up, and I think people need to sit down and talk to each other,’ Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., said. ‘And so far, the president has been unwilling to talk, leadership in both houses have been unwilling to talk, and this is Day 19 of the speaker not being willing to bring the House back.’

The Senate is also scheduled for a recess starting next week, which is expected to be canceled. Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., said whether lawmakers are in town is up to Senate Democrats. 

‘Well, it depends on the Democrats, but at the moment, it’s looking that way,’ Thune said. 

Both party’s positions have remained the same. Senate Democrats want an extension to expiring Obamacare tax credits, and they want an ironclad deal addressing those subsidies first before giving Thune the votes he needs to reopen the government.

‘We Democrats want to end this shutdown as quickly as we can,’ Schumer said on the Senate floor. ‘But Donald Trump and Republicans need to negotiate with us in a serious way to fix the healthcare premiums crisis.’

But Senate Republicans are adamant that those conversations and negotiations can happen only after the government is reopened. They also want reforms to the COVID-19 era program, which they charge has been inflationary and helped lead to an increase in healthcare premium prices.

Both Shaheen and Sen. Mike Rounds, R-S.D., have been heavily involved in bipartisan talks that have gone on throughout the shutdown. Those chats have been little more than informal conversations, however, and have yet to make the leap to full-blown negotiations.

‘They just simply want a guaranteed outcome, which we can’t guarantee,’ Rounds told Fox News Digital. ‘Everything’s got to work its way through the process. If they end the shutdown, then we can get back to work on actually doing a process that might be, you know, something that they would feel good about. But at this stage of the game, until they end the shutdown, there’s not much we can do.’

While positions remain unchanged, the talking points on Capitol Hill have begun to morph. Republicans are now alleging that Senate Democrats are holding out their votes to reopen the government until an Oct. 18 ‘No Kings’ rally in Washington, D.C.

‘The most frustrating part is the fact that there’s clearly some movement on their side, among their leadership team to keep this going through until this left-wing protest occurs a week from this Saturday,’ Rounds said.

Republican leadership in both chambers have pounced on that date, too, and it has become a common talking point among the GOP in recent days. Democrats have rejected the new messaging strategy.

‘They all got instructed, they’re losing. They are losing this fight,’ Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., said. ‘The people know that they’re to blame. They’re worried about their premium increases, and so Republicans are desperate for a new narrative.’

Still, Republicans are hopeful that more than the same consistent trio of Democratic caucus members will join them to reopen the government as Thune continues his war of attrition style plan of bringing the same bill back again and again to the Senate floor.

Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., said there are plenty of Senate Democrats not up for re-election to ‘walk the plank like I have multiple times’ to help the GOP and fund the government.

‘And then the discussions start, that simple,’ he said. ‘And why on earth should we give them any kind of political cover or leverage, when they should have never — Chuck Schumer should have never led this conference into this sort of quagmire, when all we were asking that they do is fund the government at current levels and basically do what they’ve done before, because they voted for these funding levels before.’

Trump predicts Schumer will retire before losing primary to AOC amid shutdown showdown

President Donald Trump said that he expects Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., will retire because he doesn’t believe the senator can win in a primary. 

Trump’s comments come as he’s sparred with Schumer and other Democratic leaders like House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., over a partial government shutdown that has continued into its ninth day Thursday. 

As a result, Trump said that Schumer and Jeffries are ‘holding the entire federal government hostage.’ However, Trump noted other Democrats like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., said just before the shutdown that Republicans can come to her office and negotiate anytime. 

‘She’s taking Hakeem Jeffries’ place, and Schumer’s afraid that she’s gonna run against him. And right now, I don’t know, it can change. Life is crazy, right?’ Trump said during a Cabinet meeting Thursday. ‘But, right now, I don’t think he can beat anybody. So he’ll lose in a primary. I would say he’ll retire before he loses in a primary. I think Schumer is going to retire, because he can’t beat anybody, his polls are so bad.’ 

Trump’s comments also come just after Axios reported in September that Ocasio-Cortez is laying the groundwork for a Senate or presidential run in 2028. 

Schumer’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital. 

Meanwhile, the White House has been at odds with Congressional Democrats over the lapse in funding leading to a government shutdown. While Republicans claim that Democrats were the ones who started the shutdown because they’ve failed to back a stopgap funding bill, Democrats have pinned the blame on Republicans who control both the House and Senate. 

Schumer, in particular, has come under fire from the White House, especially after Schumer told Punchbowl News that conditions improve for Democrats each day the shutdown continues. 

‘Every day gets better for us,’ Schumer told the outlet Wednesday.

In response, Trump said that Schumer was not acting on behalf of the American people. 

‘This is a confession that he’s acting not to serve the people, but to serve the partisan interests of his party,’ Trump said at the Cabinet meeting.

Cabinet spontaneously applauds as Trump signs Columbus Day proclamation: ‘We’re back, Italians’

President Donald Trump’s Cabinet and others at the White House broke out into applause Thursday afternoon when Trump signed a proclamation honoring Italian explorer Christopher Columbus. 

‘Today we have your Columbus Day proclamation for Monday, which we’re signing a bit early,’ White House staff secretary Will Scharf told Trump Thursday ahead of the monthly Cabinet meeting. 

‘Columbus, obviously, discovered the new world in 1492. He was a great Italian explorer. He sailed his three ships, the Nina, the Pinto and Santa Maria, across the Atlantic Ocean, and landed in what’s today the Caribbean. And this is a particularly important holiday for Italian Americans who celebrate the legacy of Christopher Columbus, and the innovation and explorer zeal that he represented,’ he continued. 

Applause was heard breaking out in the room as Trump added: ‘In other words, we’re calling it Columbus Day.’

Trump continued in his remarks Thursday saying, ‘We’re back, Italians,’ as applause continued.

‘That was the press that broke out in applause,’ Trump quipped of the warm reception to the proclamation. ‘I’ve never seen that happen. The press actually broke out in applause. Good. Columbus Day. We’re back. Columbus Day. We’re back, Italians. We love the Italians.’

Columbus Day has been a federal holiday since 1971, following decades of the Italian American community already celebrating the explorer and previous presidents recognizing the holiday with their own proclamations.

Activists in recent years, however, have worked to disassociate the day from Columbus — claiming it celebrates colonialism and genocide of indigenous people — in favor of celebrating Native Americans. Activists also have worked to remove Columbus statues from cities, including toppling such statues during the riots of 2020. 

Former Vice President Kamala Harris was among political leaders who favored celebrating Indigenous Peoples’ Day instead of Columbus Day, and called on Americans in 2021 to ‘not shy away’ from its ‘shameful past’ of European explorers. 

‘Those explorers ushered in a wave of devastation for Tribal nations — perpetrating violence, stealing land and spreading disease,’ she said just one day after Columbus Day 2021. ‘We must not shy away from this shameful past, and we must shed light on it and do everything we can to address the impact of the past on Native communities today.’

Flashback: Harris slammed European explorers for ushering in

Trump also signed another proclamation Thursday honoring Viking explorer Leif Erikson on Oct. 9. Erikson is credited with discovering the coast of Newfoundland in Canada more than 1,000 years ago and is considered the first European to step foot on North America.

Gold Mining Stocks Poised for Windfall as Prices Top $4,000 Per Ounce

USA News Group News Commentary

Issued on behalf of GoldHaven Resources Corp.

USA News Group News Commentary Gold smashed through $4,000 per ounce for the first time in history this week, surging over 50% year-to-date as the US government shutdown, ongoing Fed rate cuts, and global economic uncertainty drive unprecedented safe-haven demand [1] . While gold prices break records, gold mining companies are experiencing even more dramatic profit expansion because production costs remain relatively stable while metal prices soar, creating windfall margins that translate every additional dollar in gold prices into pure profit. This historic divergence between surging gold values and contained mining costs positions gold companies from explorers through producers, including GoldHaven Resources Corp. (CSE: GOH) (OTCQB: GHVNF), Equinox Gold Corp. (NYSE-American: EQX) (TSX: EQX), IAMGOLD Corporation (NYSE: IAG) (TSX: IMG), Newmont Corporation (NYSE: NEM) (TSX: NGT), and Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSXV: LG,OTC:LGCXF) (OTCQB: LGCXF).

Wall Street analysts are racing to raise targets, with Goldman Sachs now forecasting $4,900 by late 2026 [2] and Michael Langford projecting $4,300 within six months as central banks accelerate diversification into gold [3] . With rate cuts expected through year-end creating ideal conditions for gold’s continued ascent, mining companies with operational leverage to rising prices stand positioned to capture extraordinary value before the broader market fully prices in this structural shift in precious metals economics [4] .

GoldHaven Resources Corp. (CSE: GOH) (OTCQB: GHVNF) is a Canadian junior exploration company that recently commenced its first-ever diamond drilling program at the Copeçal Gold Project in Brazil’s Juruena Gold Province, a historically productive region that has yielded substantial gold discoveries since the late 1970s. The company is testing high-priority gold targets on a property that was previously explored by AngloGold Ashanti , one of the world’s largest gold mining companies.

The 3,681-hectare Copeçal project sits in Mato Grosso, Brazil , approximately 60 kilometers from Alta Floresta . AngloGold Ashanti invested approximately $1 million in systematic exploration work here between 2010 and 2016, identifying a 6-kilometer-long gold-in-soil anomaly before shifting focus to other global projects. GoldHaven is now testing whether this surface gold signature extends to depth and could indicate an economic gold deposit.

The first drill hole has already intersected approximately 30 meters of saprolite (deeply weathered rock) before entering strongly sheared and hydrothermally altered basement gneiss. The rock shows pervasive chlorite, sericite, and quartz alteration. These are classic indicators of hydrothermal fluid activity associated with gold deposits in similar geological settings.

‘The start of our maiden drill program marks a transformational milestone for GoldHaven Resources ,’ said Rob Birmingham , President and CEO. ‘This moment is the result of systematic exploration, including a 107-hole auger program and ongoing VLF surveys that refined our targets and mapped structural controls. Early geological observations from COP-25 -001 show strong deformation and alteration where saprolite meets basement rock, exactly what we hoped to see. While we await assay results, these features validate our targeting model and align with mineralized systems across the Juruena Gold Province.’

The 1,200-meter drilling program uses Ecodrill with NQ-size diamond core (47.6mm diameter) to drill 5-6 angled holes up to 150 meters deep. The program is testing two zones called East and West, both showing persistent gold-in-soil signatures extending across 3-kilometer strike lengths. Core samples are being processed at ALS Global laboratories, with sample preparation in Cuiabá and assays in Belo Horizonte . Assay results are expected in 4-6 weeks.

‘Copeçal has all the hallmarks of a compelling greenfields opportunity,’ said Jon Hill , former Exploration Manager for AngloGold Ashanti during the project’s initial discovery phase, and current Country Manager in Brazil for GoldHaven , in a previous announcement . ‘As part of the original team that identified the area, I’ve always believed this project warranted drill testing. It sits in an underexplored but highly fertile mineral belt, and thanks to AngloGold’s foundational work, we have robust geochemical and geophysical datasets to guide us.’

GoldHaven’s exploration work leading up to this drilling program included 107 auger drill penetrations and VLF-EM geophysical surveys that helped pinpoint the best drilling locations. The Copeçal asset benefits from year-round road access via highway MT-325 and sits just 60 kilometers from Alta Floresta , a regional hub serviced by daily commercial air connections. The project is positioned among a growing cluster of significant developments including G Mining’s multi-million-ounce Tocantinzinho deposit.

Parallel to Copeçal drilling, GoldHaven has advanced comprehensive summer field programs across its wholly-owned Magno and Three Guardsmen assets in northern British Columbia . The Magno Project footprint has been strategically extended by 5,159 hectares through targeted claim staking.

GoldHaven’s project portfolio includes claim packages totaling 123,900 hectares distributed across three Brazilian projects, supported by a comprehensive 43-101 Technical Report for Copeçal.

In other industry developments and happenings in the market include:

Equinox Gold Corp. (NYSE-American: EQX) (TSX: EQX) delivered record consolidated production of 236,470 ounces in Q3 2025, marking the strongest quarterly performance in company history. The Valentine Gold Mine in Newfoundland poured first gold ahead of schedule on September 14 , while the Greenstone Gold Mine in Ontario showed meaningful operational improvements with mining rates exceeding 185,000 tonnes per day and mill grades improving 13% quarter-over-quarter to 1.05 grams per tonne gold.

‘ Equinox Gold delivered a solid third quarter, producing a record consolidated 236,470 ounces of gold, reflecting the strength of our expanded portfolio following the merger completed in June,’ said Darren Hall , CEO of Equinox Gold . ‘Even after the divestment of our Nevada assets, we remain on track to deliver in the mid-range of our consolidated annual gold production guidance of 785,000 to 915,000 ounces.’

The company strengthened its balance sheet during the quarter by reducing debt by US$139 million and maintaining cash and equivalents of $359 million at September 30, 2025 . With Valentine ramping toward consistent nameplate capacity of 2.5 million tonnes per year by Q2 2026 and Greenstone positioned for a strong Q4, Equinox Gold anticipates finishing 2025 in the mid-range of consolidated guidance and carrying momentum into 2026.

IAMGOLD Corporation (NYSE: IAG) (TSX: IMG) announced assay results from its ongoing 2025 drilling programs at the Nelligan and Monster Lake projects in central Quebec , with 27 diamond drill holes totaling 11,583 metres at Nelligan and 16 holes totaling 10,137.5 metres at Monster Lake confirming extensions of mineralized zones. The combined exploration camp, located 60 kilometres southwest of Chibougamau with both projects accessible by road and just 15 kilometres apart, hosts nearly 9 million ounces of resources including Nelligan’s 3.1 million ounces Indicated and 5.2 million ounces Inferred resources alongside Monster Lake’s high-grade 84,200 ounces Indicated and 488,500 ounces Inferred resources.

‘I want to congratulate our exploration team as they continue to expand the mineralized envelope of Nelligan and intersect high-grade veins at Monster Lake,’ said Renaud Adams , CEO of IAMGOLD . ‘The Nelligan and Monster Lake camp has seen rapid growth from a relatively conservative drill program prior to this year, and these results confirm our decision to continue to increase our exploration activities within this camp. When you combine Nelligan with the high-grade satellite Monster Lake deposit, there are nearly 9 million ounces of resources in this mining camp already, positioning Nelligan among the largest gold projects in Canada with significant potential for further growth.’

Drilling at Nelligan successfully extended the deposit further down-plunge to the east below 600 to 700 metres vertical depth with the mineralized sequence remaining open along strike and at depth, while Monster Lake drilling confirmed typical high-grade veins persisting in the general down-plunge of the Megane Zone. The company plans to continue infill and step-out drilling to convert Inferred Resources into the Indicated category while testing deeper extensions and lateral expansions of both deposits.

Newmont Corporation (NYSE: NEM) (TSX: NGT) achieved first gold pour at its Ahafo North Project in Ghana on September 19, 2025 , marking a critical milestone toward commercial production in the fourth quarter of 2025. The project, located at Afrisipakrom approximately 30 kilometres from the company’s Ahafo South operations, is expected to deliver between 275,000 and 325,000 ounces of gold annually over a 13-year mine life while creating approximately 560 permanent and 1,000 contracted roles.

‘The first gold pour at Ahafo North represents a major operational milestone that validates years of careful planning, engineering, and construction, and builds on the strength of our world-class portfolio,’ said Tom Palmer , CEO of Newmont . ‘As we progress toward commercial production, we remain focused on generating enduring value for our shareholders, workforce, host communities, and the government of Ghana .’

The achievement follows the completion of key development phases including ore stockpiling that began in late 2024 and commissioning of critical infrastructure such as processing circuits, mining support facilities, and a tailings storage facility. Following the divestment of the Akyem mine in April 2025 , Ahafo North will become the company’s second operational site in the country and represents Newmont’s third mining investment in Ghana .

Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSXV: LG,OTC:LGCXF) (OTCQB: LGCXF) announced that its Exploration Plan of Operations has begun National Environmental Policy Act review by the Federal Bureau of Land Management for the Santa Fe Mine project in Nevada . The POO will allow for staged exploration drilling of over 700 holes within the Santa Fe Mine Project area, which hosts a National Instrument 43-101 compliant Indicated Mineral Resource of 1,539,000 ounces gold equivalent and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 411,000 ounces gold equivalent, with the company signing a Contributed Funds Agreement to provide funding to the BLM in support of the NEPA process.

‘ Lahontan is excited to have its Exploration POO enter the NEPA review process,’ said Kimberly Ann , CEO of Lahontan Gold . ‘When NEPA is completed, the POO will allow for staged exploration drilling of over 700 holes within the Santa Fe Mine Project area, greatly enhancing the potential to expand the project’s gold and silver resources and enhance expanded mining opportunities. The Contributed Funds Agreement allows the BLM to utilize additional personnel to complete the NEPA analysis and provide funding in case of a Federal government shutdown.’

The 26.4 square kilometre Santa Fe Mine project had past production of 359,202 ounces of gold and 702,067 ounces of silver between 1988 and 1995 from open pit mines utilizing heap-leach processing. The company plans to continue advancing the Santa Fe Mine project toward production, update the Santa Fe Preliminary Economic Assessment, and drill test its satellite West Santa Fe project during 2025.

Tudor Gold Sues BC, Seabridge Over Tunnel Rights in Golden Triangle

An ongoing land-use dispute in British Columbia’s mineral-rich Golden Triangle has escalated into a full-blown legal battle as Tudor Gold (TSXV:TUD,OTC Pink:TDRRF)takes the province and rival Seabridge Gold (TSX:SEA,NYSE:SA) to court over tunneling rights linked to one of Canada’s largest undeveloped mining projects.

Tudor filed a civil claim in the BC Supreme Court on September 22 and a separate petition for judicial review on October 3, alleging that the province acted improperly in granting Seabridge permission to tunnel through Tudor’s mineral claims for the construction of underground infrastructure tied to the massive Kerr–Sulphurets–Mitchell (KSM) project.

The KSM project, owned entirely by Seabridge, is described as one of the world’s largest undeveloped gold and copper deposits.

Tudor, meanwhile, operates the neighboring Treaty Creek property, where exploration since the early 2010s has identified major gold and copper resources at the Goldstorm deposit.

In its filings, Tudor is asking the court to declare that a conditional mineral reserve, which is imposed by the province to protect Seabridge’s tunneling rights, does not apply to its claims, or that British Columbia’s authorities exceeded their legal powers in granting the rights of occupation.

Failing that, Tudor is seeking compensation for expropriation or damages related to misrepresentation.

“We have a new team at Tudor Gold with a significant amount of experience exploring, developing, and mining in the Golden Triangle,” said Tudor president and CEO Joe Ovsenek.

“In assessing the various aspects of the Treaty Creek Project, we filed the claim as we believed it was necessary to preserve our rights impacted by a limitation period; however, we believe the best path forward is to resolve this dispute through negotiation,” Ovsenek added.

Tudor’s case also targets a September 2024 decision by the Ministry of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship (WLRS) granting Seabridge a renewed Licence of Occupation (LoO) for the tunnel corridor.

The 2024 LoO replaced an earlier 2014 licence and provided Seabridge the right to occupy a narrow stretch of Crown land that overlaps Tudor’s mineral claims.

In a July 2024 statement, former Tudor CEO and President, Ken Konkin, wrote: “It is the company’s position that any LoO which allows access for KSM Mining to construct the MTT tunnels through Tudor’s mineral claims is subject to the prior rights of Tudor to its mineral tenures. As a result, the company will continue to strongly oppose any LoO and MTT Tunnel route planned by KSM Mining that would impair Tudor’s newly discovered Goldstorm Deposit.’

The company insists that a Licence of Occupation cannot interfere with the rights of a mineral claim holder, and that the government has a duty to safeguard those rights.

Seabridge, however, maintains that the provincial authorizations are valid and were granted in line with established procedures.

“We have attempted to find terms to avoid a conflict like this with Tudor, but their demands have been unreasonable,” said Seabridge chair and CEO Rudi Fronk in a recent statement. “We are confident that the Province has acted within the law and that the various authorizations for the MTT are appropriate and reliable.”

Fronk added that the KSM project has been deemed in the public interest. Currently, it is already backed by environmental assessment approvals, a pre-feasibility study demonstrating economic viability, and multiple construction permits.

He also accused Tudor of pursuing multiple overlapping court actions in an effort to delay KSM’s progress.

“Tudor now has three concurrent, separate legal actions all directed at voiding authorizations for the MTT. In our view, if Tudor thinks it must bring three separate legal actions, it probably lacks confidence in the success of any one of them,” Fronk added.

For now, the 2024 Licence of Occupation remains in effect as the province and Seabridge prepare to defend it in court. The company said it will continue advancing development work on the KSM project for the benefit of its shareholders.

Silver Price Surges Past US$51, Hits New Record

The silver price kept surging on Thursday (October 9), breaking US$51 per ounce.

The white metal has never risen past US$51, and has only traded at the US$50 level twice in the past — once in 2011, and once in 1980, when the Hunt brothers attempted to corner the market.

Silver price chart, October 2 to October 9, 2025.

Silver price chart, October 2 to October 9, 2025.

Known for lagging behind gold before outperforming, silver is now ahead of its sister metal in terms of percentage gains — it’s up just over 65 percent year-to-date, while gold has risen around 53 percent.

Both metals are now at historic highs, with gold breaking US$4,000 per ounce this week. The US government shutdown has helped drive gold’s latest rise, but it’s also seeing underlying support from strong central bank buying, global geopolitical uncertainty, concerns about fiat currencies and expectations of lower interest rates.

Silver acts as both a precious and industrial metal, meaning that it’s driven by many of the same factors as gold, but also has additional sources of demand. According to the Silver Institute, industrial demand for silver reached a record 680.5 million ounces in 2024, driven by usage in grid infrastructure, vehicle electrification and photovoltaics.

Total silver demand was down 3 percent year-on-year in 2024, but still exceeded supply for the fourth year in a row, resulting in a deficit of 148.9 million ounces for the year.

Watch five experts share their thoughts on the outlook for silver.

With silver now past its all-time high, investors are wondering about its long-term prospects.

While many experts have lofty expectations for silver, including triple-digit price predictions, there’s a broad consensus that the white metal may correct before continuing on upward.

However, there’s also recognition that silver’s situation today is different than it was previously.

‘If you have something happen with the supply, and then on top of that at some point you’re running into issues with debt loads and currencies, that would certainly leave us probably into a much different environment for silver than either 1980 or 2011,’ said Chris Marcus, founder of Arcadia Economics.
