Highlander Silver Surges 85% as Drilling Results Set Stage for Next Growth Phase

Silver is breaking out—and Highlander Silver is ready. Speaking with Kitco Mining, President & CEO Daniel Earle lays out the case for a new structural bull market in silver, fueled by tight global supply, exploding solar and electrification demand, and a market finally decoupling silver from its historic role as gold’s sidekick.

With silver now trading above $40/oz, Earle says the move has only just begun, projecting $50 to $100 per ounce silver in the midterm as secular demand growth reshapes the landscape.

On the ground in Peru, Highlander’s San Luis Project is gaining serious momentum:

At Ayelén, an underground target is already permitted.

At Bonita, 10 km south, the company is advancing a near-surface open-pit concept, where the first 7 holes returned broad high-grade intervals, starting at or near surface.

New drone geophysics is being used to identify concealed high-grade zones across the district.

Following recent multi-billion-dollar acquisitions in the silver space, Earle says consolidation has tightened the investable universe, opening the door for rising names like Highlander. The company is targeting index inclusion in SILJ as early as November, and in the broader SIL index by April, which could drive institutional capital flows.
