Probably lots of data out on that @cryptohustlin. Silver is largely a byproduct and is sourced from the primary mining of other elements, themselves at depressed prices so it's intertwined. The dual purpose investment / industrial use is unique to silver and some say the demand for solar panels and electric cars in particular in to the future alone justifies it. For these companies to have sharholders speaks to the idea that some must see value in primary mining I'd say. Thanks for the comment. Can certainly see how difficult the whole process appears to be.
