So I'm really not concerned if silver sells of. I don't own silver directly. I don't trade it as a commodity either. I just own shares in $SILVER MINES LTD(SVL.AU)$  . They are a silver mining company based in Australia predominantly with the rights to arguably the largest silver mine deposits in Australia. They have proven out their reserves. But only expect to secure government approval to start mining as early as mid 2026. 

In an earlier article I wrote incorrectly that the licensing was in place, but it's not yet. Realistically I don't think they will start mining til 2027/2028. But they also have mining businesses in California and a few other spots that mite start production sooner.

This does not concern me though, it wasn't my play. Just as land developers bank land, that they mite just hold for 10 years before they develop. Well SVL is the same idea for me. I don't expect dividends from this company any time soon, maybe in 5 years? I do expect dilution when they need a ton of money to start mining though. And there is a possibility of a buy out.

But my play is based on the usefulness of silver as a conductor in electronic components. And it's also based on a lot of research indicating that silver is and will continue to lagg global demand. That is, it's not being pulled out of the ground fast enough to meet demand now, and in the longer term. 

So I'm just buying silver mines to bakevin the long term future price of silver. Keep it in the ground, not bothered. It's a future asset not realizable any time soon. Obviously it's less than 1% of my total portfolio. 

Therefore I have no interest if it sells off big time in the next few months. That's not even a remote consideration For me. Same if it goes up. It's meaningless. 

I brought Australian silver mines because it's not producing silver. It just has the right to mine a massive worldwide quantity of silver some time in the future. So i chose this company over every other silver mining company cause to me it's a silver bank.

Just looked in my portfolio and SVL is actually 0.3% of my portfolio. Tiny, but in 10 years it will be interesting so my plan will be to just keep dropping a few bucks on it whenever I'm not compelled to buy something else

    我也曾经经营过银矿,直到几年前它遇到了法律麻烦。我和你不在同一个地方(也就是说,我不愿意让我的钱(闲钱或其他)无所事事。我卖掉它赚了一大笔钱。从那以后,它重新提交了项目布局,也许可以拿回采矿许可证。我用这笔钱买了一些更直接的东西—— $Sun Silver Ltd(SS1.AU)$ ,另一个大型银矿和锑(另一种需求不断增加的关键矿物)!白银土地银行的想法是好的。鉴于你的时间框架是5年,银价的即时走势显然并不重要。银矿运作的关键是它真正一劳永逸地解决其许可问题,所以肯定有。我有另一个矿工,一个稀土矿工叫 $ENERGY TRANSITION MINERALS LTD(ETM.AU)$ 现在。几年前,当它遇到政治问题时,我也卖掉了它。迄今为止,它仍在努力夺回执照。所以我不喜欢冒不必要的风险。
