Hi all,
Anyone here watching / holding SVL?
- Largest undeveloped silver mine in Australia (current resource base of ~318 Moz Ag Eq)
- Targeting initial production of 6m oz p.a @ estimated US$9 per oz
- Considerable exploration potential with high grade extensions close to proposed mine
- Final stages for mine development approvals
Just gone into trading halt regarding the final approvals for mine license, initial responses seemed positive overall so fingers crossed.
Potential highly leveraged play on silver price for 23, also part of VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF.

Been holding a handful since early this year. Definitely have the base resource there, hope we get to see this eventuate with production.

Favorable recommendation announced, looking ripe for license approval.
Agree resource base is definitely there plus optionality to eventually increase existing base.
Assuming license is granted, key driver will of course be Ag prices; really need a material increase in Ag price to get some significant operating leverage and consequently SVL SP really moving. -

Potential turing point for Gold, Silver next year. Closing out 2022 on a strong note.

The Department considers that the project would result in considerable economic benefits to the region and to the State of NSW through employment (up to 131 construction and up to 210 operational jobs) and royalties." -

wow just looked to see SVL $280mill cap .... seen many a ASX Silver miner start off with great support to ht the wall in costs and eventually head into admin>> seems really hard to make a profit with the devils metal .. I see even overseas some of the primary producers costs chewing up much of the FCF ...
