VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Silver miners are early in a parabolic move higher as the precious metal pushes toward what analysts describe as a decisive $40 breakout. Industrial demand is creating momentum for the white metal, with fabrication volumes forecast to surpass 700 million ounces for the first time ever in 2025. Market technicians note that silver has cleared key resistance levels while establishing bullish momentum patterns, positioning several miners for potential outperformance, including Magma Silver Corp. (TSXV: MGMA) (OTCQB: MAGMF), Argenta Silver Corp. (TSXV: AGAG) (OTCQB: AGAGF), Endeavour Silver Corp. (NYSE: EXK) (TSX: EDR), Silvercorp Metals Inc. (NYSE-American: SVM) (TSX: SVM), and McEwen Inc. (NYSE: MUX) (TSX: MUX).

 

 

Multiple investment banks have converged on $40 price targets for silver, with Citigroup, Bank of America, and Saxo Bank citing tightening supply alongside accelerating demand from renewable energy and electronics sectors. Supply deficits are expected to persist for the fifth consecutive year, creating what industry observers call a uniquely compelling backdrop for silver equity leverage plays.

Magma Silver Corp. (TSXV: MGMA) (OTCQB: MAGMF) has confirmed that a diamond drilling campaign is expected to begin in Q4 2025 at its strategically positioned Niñobamba project in Peru. The upcoming program will initially target Jorimina, a deposit where Newmont previously invested millions in historic drilling, before expanding to test Randypata and additional high-priority zones.

While the company prepares for this pivotal drilling phase, Magma is conducting intensive geological mapping and rock sampling to sharpen drill targets and enhance its structural understanding. With environmental and community consultation requirements now fully satisfied, drill permit approvals are anticipated imminently.

"We are excited to start a work program at the advanced Niñobamba silver-gold project focused on the Jorimina and Randypata deposits," said Stephen Barley, Chairman and CEO of Magma Silver. "As announced in our news release dated July 23, 2025, the Tunsulla community access agreement is in place for these two project areas, allowing the Company full access to conduct exploration activities. The work being carried out will assist in refining drill targets for our planned Q4 drill program as well as expand our overall knowledge of the deposits."

These crucial access rights were secured through a surface access rights agreement with the Comunidad Campesina De Tunsulla, which remains in good standing through the 2025 season and into 2026. The Jorimina and Randypata deposits represent a compelling exploration target, having attracted over CAD$10 million in historic exploration by Newmont, with standout results including 17.4 metres of 3.06 g/t gold and 128 metres of 1.31 oz/t silver.

The broader Niñobamba project encompasses 4,100 hectares and is anchored by three contiguous deposits—Main, Randypata, and Jorimina—believed to form part of an extensive high-sulfidation epithermal system with significant untapped potential.

This operational milestone builds on Magma's logistical expansion into Peru, including the establishment of a Lima office and assembly of a seasoned in-country team.

Magma's Peru-based operational team includes General Manager Carlos Agreda Minaya, legal counsel Dentons, environmental partner Ecosoul, and field geology expert Edgar Leon Choque. Their immediate priority involves advancing Jorimina toward drilling readiness while simultaneously executing comprehensive mapping and surface work across the mineralized corridor.

"The establishment of an experienced operations team we can trust will make a significant contribution to our success in Peru," added Barley. "Peru is a sophisticated, mining-friendly jurisdiction with detailed regulatory requirements that must be strictly adhered to. The experienced team we are involved with will ensure smooth operations for Magma."

With a share structure of just over 34 million shares outstanding and all mineral claims secured through mid-2026, Magma is transitioning from asset assembly to active exploration in one of South America's most mining-friendly jurisdictions. As groundwork intensifies and drill targets are finalized, the company stands poised to unlock value from a system that major mining companies spent years defining but never fully developed.
