Silver demand from solar panels is forecast to fall 19% in 2026 to 151 million ounces, down from 186.6 million in 2025, according to the Silver Institute.
BMO expects solar to give back roughly half its demand gains by 2030 as installations stagnate and manufacturers use less silver.
With solar demand weakening, prices will increasingly depend on investment inflows, BMO says.
Its $50–$70/oz forecast for the second half of the decade assumes inflows match 2025's record.
The Silver Institute still expects a sixth consecutive market deficit in 2026, at 46.3 million ounces.

India has banned exports of lithium-ion battery black mass, effective immediately.
The shredded-battery powder holds lithium, cobalt, nickel and manganese.
New Delhi wants it recycled at home, alongside a 15 billion rupee incentive scheme for critical mineral recycling.
India exported none of it in the last fiscal year, according to trade think tank GTRI.

Drilling is ongoing at our 100% owned Whiskey project, located 20 km east of the Borealis Mine and Headwater’s Spring Peak project, in Nevada.
Stay tuned for exploration updates.

🚨NEW EPISODE🚨with financial historian EDWARD CHANCELLOR - 400 yrs of financial history tells him that we're in a bubble.
"It makes sense to stand back, wait for the bubble burst, observe the shakeout, & then see which companies appear to be gathering a dominant position."
We cover:
- rising rates most common factor before bubble bursts
- poor government finances makes situation particularly dangerous
- bubbles are bad at identifying the long term winners
- Messianic leaders in bubbles - Sir John Blunt in South Sea Bubble 1720s vs #JensenHuang #ElonMusk #DarioAmodei #SamAltman
- "the more information we have, paradoxically, the more irrational our behaviour becomes" - newspapers, telephone, internet inflated bubbles...and now AI?
- Lessons for today from 1630s Tulip Mania; 1720s South Sea Bubble; Railways 1840s; 1920s; 1980s Japan; Dot-Com
- Avoid index funds

And, sure enough, the yield on the US 10-year government bond has jumped, currently trading at 4.95%.

A high fiber diet outperforms metformin, without the iatrogenics, of course.
This is somewhat statistically OK, so could be big, very big, because it must necessarily directionally apply to GLP-1 --though the latter has a stronger effect than metformin.

Four Nines Gold has reported its strongest drill result to date at Hayden Hill, and the significance goes well beyond one hole.
HH26-005 returned 67.0 metres averaging 1.78 g/t gold and 13 g/t silver, including 35.9 metres averaging 2.30 g/t gold and 15 g/t silver. The highest individual sample returned 16.90 g/t gold and 182 g/t silver over 0.4 metres.
Four Nines is not just finding gold in one isolated drill hole.
The first three reported holes targeting the Lower Telegraph Corridor have now all intersected more than 30 metres of gold mineralization averaging above 1 g/t gold, and all begin at relatively shallow depths beneath the historic pit.
That consistency is what makes this result important.
HH26-001 showed the system was mineralized.
HH26-003 extended that picture along the corridor.
Now HH26-005 has delivered the strongest combination of width and grade reported so far, giving Four Nines another significant intersection within the same emerging structural system.
The geological picture is becoming increasingly interesting. HH26-003 and HH26-005 were drilled in different directions from the same general area, yet both encountered similar silicification, quartz veining and hydrothermal brecciation associated with gold mineralization. The stronger grades in HH26-005 give the geological team additional information about how gold is being distributed within the corridor.
The next question is no longer simply whether Lower Telegraph contains gold.
It is how large, continuous and vertically extensive this system may be.
And there is still a substantial amount of information to come.
Five additional completed holes in the Lower Telegraph Corridor are awaiting assays. HH26-011 has already intersected approximately 58.9 metres of hydrothermal alteration and brecciation comparable to the geology observed in mineralized holes, with assays pending. A total of 12 holes have now been completed across Hayden Hill, while seven additional exploration zones remain to be systematically investigated.
That is the bigger picture.
The work ahead is about defining how far the corridor extends, how it behaves at depth, where the higher-grade portions of the system occur, and what the other identified exploration zones across Hayden Hill may contain.
The early results are increasingly suggesting Four Nines is onto something at Hayden Hill.
