Highlander Silver is advancing the San Luis gold-silver project in central Peru's Ancash region, adjacent to the past-producing Pierina mine, featuring indicated resources of 356 koz gold at 24.4 g/t and 8.4 Moz silver at 579 g/t Ag—ranking among the world's top 10 highest-grade deposits for both metals. In December 2025, it merged with Bear Creek Mining, adding the large-scale Corani silver project (229 Moz silver reserves, advanced permitting) and the Mercedes gold-silver mine in Mexico. Key backers include Eric Sprott (US$40M investment in January 2026), the Lundin family, and Augusta Capital. As a developer, it has no revenue, losses and negative cash flow, but some good projects and potential. Of course, the big sector rally has been helpful as well. The stock has soared, and market cap now above $1B can bring out new investors. The BCM merger has been approved, and we think the outlook is solid here, providing the sector does not roll over. It should be considered risky, but has good qualities.
