Huge Week Ahead for Highlander Silver (TSX: HSLV)
Ever since NIA’s initial suggestion of Highlander Silver (TSX: HSLV) a little over one year ago on February 12, 2025, at $1.40 per share… we have consistently said it will take approximately 18 months for HSLV to reach $20+ per share, and that was based on San Luis only… we didn’t know back then that HSLV would acquire Bear Creek.
The most important thing to know is not only will HSLV close on its acquisition of Bear Creek this week, but HSLV already gave Bear Creek a large private placement investment when the deal was first announced. Corani has not seen exploration drilling in the last decade, and there remain targets to the north, northeast and south of the known deposit as well as additional features like a related gold zone and porphyry targets. That’s a classic indication that the current resource footprint isn’t the full story… there are large areas that haven’t yet been tested.
Bear Creek has already begun advancing geophysics to define new targets, which will put HSLV in a position to start drilling at Corani very quickly! In addition, Highlander is preparing to launch Phase 2 drilling at San Luis. In Phase 1 drilling targeting the near-surface Bonita vein system they last reported assays on December 1st, which showed their highest grades to date with a new discovery intercepting 23.9m at 20.82 g/t Gold and 31.53 g/t Silver (BOD-023) and 23.4m at 11.70 g/t Gold and 26.10 g/t Silver (BOD-022). HSLV hasn’t yet done any drilling at the bonanza grade Ayelen deposit located 10km north of Bonita, which ranks among the top 10 highest grade projects globally in both gold and silver categories.
Discovery Silver (TSX: DSV)’s Cordero is the #1 largest undeveloped silver project worldwide and is most likely adding $2 billion in market cap to DSV, despite it being lower grade than Corani and unlikely to receive permitting because Mexico is against developing new open pit mines.
HSLV’s Corani with more drilling could potentially surpass Cordero in size and become the world’s #1 largest undeveloped silver project. Corani today is already the world’s #1 largest fully permitted for production undeveloped silver project!
Remember, HSLV wouldn’t exist without J David Lowell and Lowell Copper now owned by Richard Warke’s Solaris Resources (TSX: SLS) was previously the #1 largest shareholder of NIA’s Minaurum Silver (TSXV: MGG). Click here to read NIA’s August 19th alert for a detailed explanation!
