In the episode, we chat to Galen McNamara, CEO of Summa Silver Corp that is a TSX-listed explorer focusing on developing the Hughes Property in the prolific Tonopah district of Nevada. They have also commenced drilling at Mogollon, New Mexico

Galen is a geologist by trade and has over 15 years of experience in discovery and capital markets. Apart from heading up Summa Silver, he also sits on a few different boards. In this episode, he talks about both projects, the progress they have made and gives us an update on the current silver market.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Summa Silver is a new silver exploration company that focuses on the Southwestern US.
• They have two historic properties that have not been explored using modern technology.
• At the Tonopah, Nevada project they are getting grades above one thousand grammes per tonne on multiple targets.
• The best hole at Tonopah is 4408 grammes per tonne silver equivalent over 2.8 meters.
• They are about to start drilling at the New Mexico Mogollon project.
• Currently, between 60 and 70% of silver is used for industrial purposes. In the future, that percentage will rise sharply as demand from the electric car industry grows.
• Good silver assets are hard to find, so servicing that demand is going to be hard. Another reason prices are likely to rise.
• Despite doing a lot of drilling Summa Silver is still quite well-financed-
• The outlook for the silver market for 2022 is good. In the podcast, Galen explains why.
• Many junior silver miners are undervalued at the moment.
