Top 5 Canadian Silver Stocks of 2025
Silver prices surged during the second quarter of 2025, surpassing the US$37 per ounce mark and reaching their highest levels in 14 years.
The price movements stem from a tightening supply and demand situation, which has seen above-ground inventories squeezed due to an increasing need from industrial sectors, particularly the growing photovoltaics industry.
However, demand has also increased due to heightened investor interest in alternative safe-haven assets, as gold prices reached record highs. The shifting sentiment comes amid uncertainty over a US trade policy that could reduce the world's gross domestic product by 1 percent.
Investors have also been spooked by increasing conflict in the Middle East.
How has silver's price movement benefited Canadian silver stocks on the TSX, TSXV and CSE? The five companies listed below have seen the best performances since the start of the year. Data was gathered using TradingView's stock screener on July 7, 2025, and all companies listed had market caps over C$10 million at that time.
1. Santacruz Silver (TSX:SCZ)
Year-to-date gain: 321.82 percent
Market cap: C$387.88 million
Share price: C$1.16
Santacruz Silver is an Americas-focused silver producer with operations in Bolivia and Mexico. Its producing assets include a 45 percent stake in the Bolivar and Porco mines, which it shares with the Bolivian government, and a 100 percent ownership of the Caballo Blanco Group mines in Bolivia, along with the Zimapan mine in Mexico.
In addition to its producing assets, Santacruz also owns the greenfield Soracaya project, an 8,325 hectare land package located in Potosi, Bolivia. According to an August 2024 technical report, the site hosts an inferred resource of 34.5 million ounces of silver derived from 4.14 million metric tons of ore with an average grade of 260 g/t.
In October 2021, Santacruz acquired Glencore's (LSE:GLEN,OTC Pink:GLCNF) 45 percent stake in the Bolivar and Porco mines and a 100 percent interest in the Soracaya project. Under the terms of the deal, Santacruz made an initial payment of US$20 million and was obligated to make an additional US$90 million over a four-year period from the closing of the transaction. Glencore also retained a 1.5 percent net smelter return.
The pair amended the deal in October 2024, giving Santacruz the option to either pay off the US$80 million base purchase price through annual US$10 million installments or to accelerate the repayment by paying US$40 million by November 2025. The deal also includes additional terms such as monthly payments to Glencore contingent on zinc pricing benchmarks.
Santacruz chose the accelerated option through a structured payment plan, which allows it to satisfy the base purchase price of the properties while saving US$40 million compared to the annual installment option. As of its third payment to Glencore on July 7, Santacruz has now paid US$25 million.
In its Q1 2025 production report released on June 12, Santacruz disclosed consolidated silver production of 1.59 million ounces, marking a 1 percent increase from the 1.58 million ounces produced during the same quarter in 2024.
Santacruz shares reached a year-to-date high of C$1.16 on July 7.
2. Almaden Minerals (TSX:AMM)
Year-to-date gain: 318.18 percent
Market cap: C$32.93 million
Share price: C$0.23
Almaden Minerals is a precious metals exploration company working to advance the Ixtaca gold-silver deposit in Puebla, Mexico. According to the company website, the deposit was discovered by Almaden’s team in 2010 and has seen more than 200,000 meters of drilling across 500 holes.
A July 2018 resource estimate shows measured resources of 862,000 ounces of gold and 50.59 million ounces of silver from 43.38 million metric tons of ore, and indicated resources of 1.15 million ounces of gold and 58.87 million ounces of silver from 80.76 million metric tons of ore with a 0.3 g/t cutoff.
In April 2022, Mexico’s Supreme Court of Justice ruled that the initial licenses issued in 2002 and 2003 would be reverted back to application status after the court found there had been insufficient consultation when the licenses were originally assigned.
Ultimately, the applications were denied in February 2023, effectively halting progress on the Ixtaca project. While subsequent court cases have preserved Almaden’s mineral rights, it has yet to restore the licenses to continue work on the project.
In June 2024, Almaden announced it had confirmed up to US$9.5 million in litigation financing that will be used to fund international arbitrations proceedings against Mexico under the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership.
In a December update, the company announced that several milestones had been achieved, including the first session with the tribunal, at which the company was asked to submit memorial documents outlining its legal arguments by March 20, 2025. At that time, the company stated it would vigorously pursue the claim but preferred a constructive resolution with Mexico.
On March 21, the company indicated that it had submitted the requested documents, claiming US$1.06 billion in damages. The memorial document outlines how Mexico breached its obligations and unlawfully expropriated Almaden’s investments without compensation.
The most recent update from the proceedings occurred on May 23, when the company announced that it had established a key personnel retention agreement (KPA) with CFO Korm Trieu and Executive Vice President Douglas McDonald. The KPA is intended as a long-term incentive program to retain employees for their knowledge of the proceedings, and the employees will need to perform certain duties related to the claims.
Under the terms of the agreement, the key personnel will split 4 percent of net proceeds, to a maximum of US$12 million, should Almaden’s claim prove successful.
Almaden shares reached a year-to-date high of C$0.245 on June 30.
3. Avino Silver and Gold (TSX:ASM)
Year-to-date gain: 296.85 percent

In a January 15 update, Avino announced it had received all necessary permits for mining at La Preciosa and begun underground development at La Preciosa. It is now developing a 350 meter mine access and haulage decline. The company said the first phase at the site is expected to cost less than C$5 million, which will be funded from cash reserves.
In Avino’s Q1 financial report released on May 13, the company noted that work was progressing at the site according to plan, with blasting and construction of the decline underway. It added that a new drill was working on the haulage ramp to the Gloria and Abundancia veins.
On the production and finance side, the company reported a record quarterly after-tax income of US$5.6 million, 10 percent higher than the US$5.1 million during Q4 2024. Avino also reported a 6 percent increase in silver production to 265,681 ounces. The company attributed the gain to an increase in feeder grade.
Avino shares reached a year-to-date high of C$5.04 on July 7.
4. Excellon Resources (TSXV:EXN)
Year-to-date gain: 238.89 percent
Market cap: C$57.43 million
Share price: C$0.305
Excellon Resources is an exploration and development company that is advancing its recently acquired Mallay silver mine in Peru back into production.

On June 24, Excellon announced that it had completed its acquisition of Minera CRC, and its Mallay mine and Tres Cerros gold-silver project in Peru.
Excellon began the court-supervised acquisition process in October 2024. On March 11, Excellon announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement with Adar Mining and Premier Silver, which resolved any outstanding disputes between Adar, Premier, and Minera, and paved the way to complete the transaction.
In the June release, the company stated that it will immediately commence the next phase of its strategy to restart the mine. As Mallay is fully permitted with infrastructure in place, Excellon is aiming for run-rate silver production in Q2 of next year.
Additionally, the company announced on July 3 that it had appointed Mike Hoffman to its board of directors. Hoffman has been in the mining sector for over 35 years, and has experience with developing mines in Latin America.

Year-to-date gain: 182.61 percent
Market cap: C$481.71 million
Share price: C$3.25

Its primary silver-producing operation is the San Bartolomé facility in the Potosi Department of Bolivia. The onsite processing facility has an annual ore capacity of 1.8 million metric tons. The company has transitioned from conventional mining and is processing feed from both its low-cost fines deposit facility and third-party ore purchases.
Its other producing asset is the Golden Queen mine in Kern County, California, US. It hosts a 12,000 MT per day cyanide heap leach and Merril-Crowe processing facility. A mineral reserve statement showed a measured and indicated silver resource of 11.24 million ounces from 41.81 million MT at an average grade of 8.37 g/t silver. The company acquired Golden Queen from Auvergne Umbrella in November 2023 for total consideration of US$15 million.
On May 6, Andean released its Q1 operating and financial results. During the first quarter of the year, it produced 925,000 ounces of silver across its operations, up 0.9 percent over Q1 2024. However, the company noted that its revenues increased 43.9 percent year-over-year, reaching US$62 million compared to US$43.1 million. The company attributed this increase to higher silver and gold prices.
The most recent news from the company came on June 2 when it announced it entered into an exclusive, long-term agreement with the Bolivian state-owned mining company Corporacion Minera de Bolivia to acquire up to 7 million metric tons of oxide ore from mining concessions in Bolivia.
The ore is located within a 250 kilometer radius of the processing facility at its San Bartolomé operation, where it will process the ore. Under the terms of the 10 year agreement, Andean will immediately receive an initial 250,000 metric tons of ore, with the remaining to be delivered in tranches of 50,000 MT.
Shares in Andean reached a year-to-date high of C$3.25 on July 7.

5 Silver Stocks With Dividends
Silver is a notoriously volatile metal capable of wide price swings in either direction. However, the metal is also seen by many as a safe-haven investment and a hedge against inflation.
While investing in silver bullion is one popular method for gaining exposure, silver-mining companies offer another route.
Silver-mining companies with strong balance sheets and experienced management teams are able to capitalize on high silver prices and weather the storm of low silver prices. Some of the most profitable silver-mining companies are even able to offer investors dividends, which may be appealing for those who are in it for the long haul.
Dividends are especially attractive in the often-unstable mining sector because they give investors a degree of security — if a company pays a dividend, it generally feels that it has the cash to do so and believes it will have the ongoing profits it needs to keep those payments coming.
There are several dividend-paying silver stocks for investors to choose from. The companies below are ordered by dividend yield, and all data is current as of June 19, 2025.
1. Fresnillo (LSE:FRES,OTC Pink:FNLPF)
LSE market cap: GBP 10.66 billion
Dividend yield: 1.71 percent
Major miner Fresnillo bills itself as the world’s leading primary silver producer and a significant gold producer. Its precious metals operations are all located in Mexico, including the Fresnillo mine, which is the largest primary silver mine in the world. It also holds a portfolio of exploration prospects in the country and silver streaming contracts.
Fresnillo's attributable output from its mines for the full 2024 year came to 56.3 million ounces of silver and 610,646 ounces of gold. The company's reported mine production for the the first quarter of 2025 comes to 12.4 million ounces of silver and 156,100 ounces of gold.
Dividends from the company are paid in pounds sterling unless shareholders elect to be paid in US dollars. This silver stock pays two dividends per year, with the dividend split unevenly between the two; one third is paid in the interim dividend and two-thirds in the final dividend. Its dividend policy takes business profitability and underlying earnings growth into account, as well as capital requirements and cash flow.
Most recently, Fresnillo paid its 2024 final dividend of 19.6521 pence, or US$0.261, on May 30, 2025. Additionally, due to its 2024 financial performance, including revenue growth of 26.9 percent, the company paid a special one-off dividend of 31.4736 pence, or US$0.418 per share, the same day. This made 2024 Fresnillo's highest recorded dividend payout year yet.
2. Pan American Silver (TSX:PAAS,NYSE:PAAS)
TSX market cap: C$14.39 billion
NYSE market cap: US$10.55 billion
Dividend yield: 1.41 percent

In May, Pan American announced a definitive agreement to acquire silver producer MAG Silver (TSX:MAG,NYSEAMERICAN:MAG), which owns a 44 percent interest in the large-scale, high-grade Juanicipio mine, operated by Fresnillo.
The highest dividend Pan American has ever paid is US$0.125 per share, and it was able to pay a dividend of that amount a noteworthy nine times in a row between March 18, 2013, and March 13, 2015. The silver stock paid its most recent quarterly dividend on June 2, 2025, at US$0.10 per share.
3. Wheaton Precious Metals (TSX:WPM,NYSE:WPM)
TSX market cap: C$56.63 billion
NYSE market cap: US$41.58 billion
Dividend yield: 0.71 percent
Wheaton Precious Metals is a well-known name in the silver space largely because of its business model — it is the world’s biggest precious metals streaming company.
Streaming companies operate differently from miners, making upfront payments to a variety of metals companies in order to gain the right to purchase all or a portion of their metal production at a low, fixed cost.
The company currently has streaming agreements in place for 18 operating mines and 28 development-stage projects. It is interested in companies operating in politically stable jurisdictions, and states that its value should rise with the price of silver and gold. As a result, Wheaton sees itself offering investors multiple benefits while reducing many of the downside risks that traditional miners face.
Wheaton pays a quarterly dividend. So far in 2025, it has already made two dividend payments of US$0.165 per share, with the latest payment on June 10, 2025.

5. Hecla Mining Company (NYSE:HL)
NYSE market cap: US$3.76 billion
Dividend yield: 0.59 percent
Last on this list of silver stocks that pay dividends is Hecla Mining Company, which wholly owns and operates four mines and has a large exploration portfolio.

FAQs for silver dividend stocks
What are dividend stocks?
Dividend stocks regularly pay a sum of money to a class of shareholders out of the company's earnings. To qualify for a dividend payout, an investor must have owned the stock on the ex-dividend date.
Dividends are often issued as cash payments sent to a shareholder’s brokerage account, but can also be issued as stock or discounts on share purchases.
How to invest in dividend stocks?
You can invest in dividend-paying stocks through a stock broker or stock platform, and a stock broker can offer advice on how to take advantage of companies offering dividend programs. Some dividend stocks may also offer a dividend reinvestment program, allowing shareholders to automatically buy new shares with their dividends, either commission-free or at a reduced cost.
How much do dividend stocks pay?
A company's board of directors is responsible for setting a dividend policy and will determine the size of the dividend payout based on the firm's long-term revenue outlook.
The size of an individual shareholder's dividend payout depends on the number of shares owned in that company. For example, if an investor owned 1,000 shares of Wheaton Precious Metals, which is currently paying a dividend of US$0.165 per share, they would get US$165 every quarter, totaling US$660 annually.
What silver ETFs pay dividends?
There are no physical backed Silver ETFs with dividends. However, ETFs that track dividend-paying silver stocks such as those listed above may offer the potential for dividend income. A few examples of are Global X Silver Miners ETF (ARCA:SIL), and iShares MSCI Global Silver and Metals Miners ETF (BATS:SLVP).
