Driving a substantial increase in demand, silver is used extensively in several industrial areas, particularly in green energy technologies.
Thus, as the global shift toward sustainable energy sources continues, so does the importance of and demand for silver. With a projected 20% increase in silver demand from the photovoltaic sector this year alone, coinciding with an expected decline in silver production, there are growing market imbalances that need to be reconciled.

High-Grade Silver Opportunity in Top Jurisdiction
Located amid this market, Dolly Varden Silver (DV.v DOLLF) has emerged as high potential opportunity, advancing a high-grade and pure silver project in BC's Golden Triangle, the Kitsault Valley Property, as highlighted by Crux Investor's latest piece: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/dolly-varden-silver-high-grade-silver-opportunity-in-top-jurisdiction
Boasting a 140M high-grade and pure-silver resource, Kitsault hosts several primary silver deposits with over 95% of the metal value from silver, making it a very rare project.
"This differentiates Dolly Varden from many silver companies that derive a significant portion of their metal value from base metals or gold byproducts. Dolly Varden offers an attractive pure-play opportunity for investors looking for a silver-focused story."
Resource Growth & Exploration Upside
Focused on advancing and de-risking its existing silver resources while continuing to explore the highly prospective project for new discoveries, DV sees the potential to build several silver deposits in the 50-60M ounce range.
Currently, DV is conducting a fully-funded 25,000m diamond drill program its 100% owned Kitsault Valley Project, with three rigs mobilized to test for new discoveries and follow up on high-grade silver mineralization encountered in 2023.
As drilling is now underway, investors can expect a steady stream of news flows as assays and exploration updates are announced ahead of a resource estimate providing a major milestone and setting the stage for preliminary economic studies.
Unique Attributes & Leverage to Silver
As one of the few pure-play silver companies in a top jurisdiction, DV offers unique exposure to the silver market amid silvers supply forecast remaining in deficit due to rising industrial demand.
As seen in the share price appreciating 20-30% for a 10% rise in silver, DV provides significant leverage to silver prices, making it an "attractive investment opportunity for investors bullish on silver to amplify their returns".
Aiming to derisk and grow existing resources while continuing exploration to expand the project, DV boasts a strong institutional base, including Hecla Mining and Eric Sprott, and it's leverage to rising silver prices provides a unique opportunity.
