Primary Silver Miners Report Increased Production in 2015.
No Peak Silver in Mexico.
Mexican Silver Miners Ramp up Production.
In “Peak Silver Has Not Arrived in the United States“, we noted that while U.S. mining production was down from 2014, it was roughly equal to 2012 and 2013 levels and did not reflect any trend towards reduced production.
Peak silver doesn’t seem to be coming to Mexico, the world’s largest silver mining country. Primary silver miners with operations in Mexico and the U.S. are reporting increases in silver mining production and some cases, record production.
