As quoted in the market news:
While industrial demand will put a floor under silver prices, declining safe-haven demand will put a cap on their upside potential, according to analysts. The increased likelihood of range-bound movement will put pressure on miners to control costs. Most mining companies expect a cost-per-ounce of $16 to $18 in 2014.
