Discover Silver aims to grow production

Discovery Silver is making a significant move into the gold sector with its acquisition of the Porcupine mine in Ontario, Canada, from Newmont. The deal, discussed by CEO Tony Makuch in an interview at the 2025 BMO Global Metals Mining and Critical Minerals Conference, marks a shift for the company, which has been primarily known as a silver developer in Mexico.

“The other part of value creation here is you take assets that are not Tier 1 assets at this point in time, and you convert them to Tier 1 assets,” he explained.

    Silver Price Forecast – Silver Continues to Look Sideways Overall

    The silver market was rather quiet during the early hours on Wednesday as we continue to see a lot of choppiness.

    I think this is a scenario where you have to be somewhat hesitant to buy silver, and I think really what we are looking at is a situation where we are just simply consolidating overall. I believe that the $28.75 level is significant support, just as the $31 level is significant resistance.

  • Footage of Gold toilet burglary

    The footage played at their trial at Oxford Crown Court showed two vehicles driving across the Great Courtyard, before hooded individuals armed with sledgehammers and a large crowbar broke into the palace. One could be seen leaving carrying a golden toilet seat.

    The fully functioning lavatory was insured for the sum of $6m (£4.8m), the court heard previously.

    “They knew precisely where to go, broke down the wooden door to the cubicle where the toilet was fully plumbed in, removed it, leaving water pouring out of the pipes, and drove away,” prosecutor Julian Christopher KC said previously.

    “Clearly such an audacious raid would not have been possible without lots of preparation”, he added,

    I will follow this till the end of the trial. I want to know what happened to the toilet! Maybe you do too. Clearly had to have been planned and to have done it so quickly, from the video evidence anyway. Let’s see what happens. -V.

    TD Securities’ Daniel Ghali says gold and silver won’t return to the UK

    The massive outflows of gold and silver bullion from the UK into the U.S. will not likely return even after the tariff and trade situation is resolved, and while gold prices are poised to continue setting fresh all-time highs, the setup for silver is even stronger, according to TD Securities’ senior commodity strategist Daniel Ghali.

    “This isn’t the silver squeeze narrative that you’ve heard about, this is the silver squeeze that you can buy into,” Ghali added.

    Gold rises with new record

    “We could envision a situation where inflation migrates higher, while the economy slows down as the auto sector grinds to a sudden halt, for example,” said Bart Melek, global head of commodity strategy at TD Securities.  “Higher inflation and low rates, and the associated angst with the president’s imposition of tariffs, so uncertainty and risk are helping gold.” 

    “These tariffs create a strong tailwind for gold,” Bank of Montreal analysts wrote in a note. “Not only because of their inherent inflationary effects but also as the USA’s increasingly hawkish foreign policy may accelerate de-dollarisation plans.”
