Notable Quotes

  • "The company is pleased to be fully subscribed and close over $1.8-million, and I am excited to continue to be a large shareholder in the company by subscribing once again alongside our existing and new shareholders. We have had significant interest in the private placement, well above the funds raised, and truly appreciate the support in the market," commented Peter A. Ball, president and chief executive officer.
  • "It will be an exciting period going forward for the company in this robust silver market, which is approaching $43 per ounce, and showing potential for additional upside in the sector for 2026 and beyond. The company is positioned extremely well with the ability to explore its seven historical high-grade drill-ready silver mines in Idaho and Nevada within our three 100-per-cent-owned silver projects, with no royalties, or cumbersome earn-in exploration agreements or future payments required. It was a tough past 12 months, but the market is back and so is Silver Hammer!"
