Q: Can you please comment on Sprott Silver Miners & Physical Silver ETF (SLVR). The ETF is new as of early 2025: does it pay a dividend? I am looking for small cap silver miner exposure and SLVR appears to hold 64% small caps less than $2B. Most of the holdings are in Canada. I don't know how much Eric Sprott has control over the holdings. Or is SILJ a safer bet: it has about 34% small caps, $300M to $2B and pays a nice dividend of about 5%.

Q: Hi 5i.
I own small position in Sprott Silver trust.
I would like to add small position(s) of some silver producers.
What are you recommendations for an ETF, which may make the most sense or perhaps 2 producers. Prefer a conservative (for retirees) choice(s).
Thank you for the great service.

Q: Is there an ETF on the TSX which holds silver mining companies rather than silver bullion?
