IBN Announces Latest Episode of The MiningNewsWire Podcast featuring Lon Shaver, President of Silvercorp Metals Inc.

IBN, a multifaceted communications organization engaged in connecting public companies to the investment community, is pleased to announce the release of the latest episode of The MiningNewsWire Podcast as part of its sustained effort to provide specialized content distribution via widespread syndication channels.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Lon Shaver, President of Silvercorp Metals Inc. (NYSE American: SVM) (TSX: SVM), a Canadian mining company producing silver, gold, lead, and zinc, with a long history of profitability and growth.

During the interview, Shaver shared how Silvercorp is evolving beyond its silver-focused roots into a diversified, multi-asset producer.

“We’re a growth company in transition. Our recent acquisition brought us into Ecuador, and we remain very active in pursuing new opportunities to grow the company and expand our asset base… We really like to deliver for our shareholders — to be a multi-asset, multi-jurisdiction company within a couple of years.”

He went on to explain the financial strategy behind Silvercorp’s current expansion efforts.

“The roughly $240 million in capital estimated for El Domo… $175 [million] of that will be funded by Wheaton. There’s a stream arrangement in place… The balance — $75 million — we can easily fund that out of cash on hand. So, that will allow us to continue to look at new targets for growth as well as pay our dividend, which arguably is a bit symbolic at present… but it’s really meant to show that good times and bad in the silver market, we intend to give our shareholders a return on their investment.”

Shaver also emphasized what sets the company apart from peers in the sector.

“In addition to being a good operator and a consistent operator with a long track record… we’ve shown through our M&A efforts really a good nose for surfacing value. We’ve seen a number of targets that we thought were good acquisition targets. We didn’t always get them because we didn’t chase them and overpay, but I think we’ve done a good job at finding good opportunities and trying to bring them into the company for our shareholders.”

Join IBN’s Carmel Fisher and Lon Shaver, President of Silvercorp Metals, for a conversation on building a multi-asset portfolio, managing capital efficiency, and delivering value across cycles.
