Q: I was wondering what your opinion of this official status of silver now is.

"Silver was officially added to the U.S. Critical Minerals list by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) as part of the final 2025 list, with the recommendation made in August 2025 and the final list published in November 2025, marking a major shift recognizing its importance in technology, defense, and renewable energy".

In light of this, what 3 silver or mining companies you would recommend for exposure small, medium, large cap examples.? Do you believe that this new status has lead to the large appreciation this year? I do hold physical so I have some exposure there already.

Thanks for your great service.
