A New Frontier of Silver Exploration
New Pacific Metals (TSX:NUAG,OTCQX:NUMPF) is exploring and developing precious metals projects in Bolivia. The company’s largest shareholders are Silvercorp Metals Inc.

The company’s flagship project is the Silver Sand project in the Potosí Department of Bolivia. The Silver Sand project is silver only and hosts a 2020 NI-43 101 compliant resource estimate, including measured and indicated resources of 35.39 Mt at 137 g/t silver for 155.86 Moz and inferred resource tonnes of 9.84 Mt at 112 g/t silver for 35.55 Moz.
