Silver Tiger Metals Inc. is a Canadian company whose management has more than 27 years’ experience discovering, financing, and building large hydrothermal gold and silver mines in Mexico. Silver Tiger’s 100% owned 28,414 hectare Historic El Tigre Mining District is located in Sonora, Mexico. Principled environmental, social and governance practices are core priorities at Silver Tiger.
Silver Tiger commenced work on its El Tigre Project in 2017. El Tigre will be an open pit and underground mine. Silver Tiger has raised over $100 million CDN in 4 syndicated bought deal financings. The majority of this money was invested by long only precious metals institutions. Silver Tiger has drilled 150,000 meters at the El Tigre Project, with 119,000 meters completed since 2020. Silver Tiger has completed several Mineral Resource Estimates (“MRE”), a maiden MRE in 2017 and MRE updates in 2023 and 2024. The Preliminary Economic Assessment for the El Tigre open pit was released in November 2023 and is the final study required to commence gold and silver production.
The October 2024 Preliminary Feasibility Study (“PFS”) for the El Tigre open pit delivered robust economics. At current spot prices for silver and gold we project an after-tax net present value (NPV) of US$375.6 million at a 5% discount rate, an after-tax internal rate of return (IRR) of 57.2%, and a payback period of just 1.6 years. This open pit operation is expected to have a 10-year mine life. At current spot prices the El Tigre project delivers a life of mine undiscounted after-tax cash flow of US$520.7 million, with initial capital costs of $86.8 million (including $9.3 million in contingency). Operating cash costs are projected at $973/oz AuEq and $12/oz AgEq, with all-in sustaining costs (AISC) at $1,214/oz AuEq and $14/oz AgEq. Average annual production is estimated at approximately 67,000 gold equivalent ounces in the mines first phase, increasing to over 100,000 gold equivalent ounces after the second phase is complete.
Silver Tiger is now initiating drilling from underground, focusing on high-grade silver vein, sulphide, and shale zones. A Preliminary Economic Assessment for the fully permitted underground mineral resource is expected to be released in the first half of 2025.
