The Northern Miner Podcast - episode 147: Silver miners need much higher prices, ft. Americas Silver CEO Darren Blasutti

Darren Blasutti

In this episode, acting editor-in-chief Trish Saywell interviews Americas Silver CEO Darren Blasutti on macroeconomics, silver prices and the economic challenges facing silver miners. Blasutti says many silver companies will need much higher prices before they can realize greater profits because of an excess of high-grading at low prices. He also discusses developments at the company's Relief Canyon gold project in Nevada.

Topics include: the US-China trade war; the Federal Reserve's impact on precious metals; the perils of high-grading in bad times; and choosing to mine certain metals at the best times.
