10 Silver ETFs for Every Investing Style in 2025

Investors looking for exposure to the silver price and silver-mining companies should consider silver exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Spurred by moves in the gold market, safe-haven buying as well as increasing demand from industrial sectors, in the fourth quarter of 2025 the price of silver broke through its all-time high of US$49.95, which it set in 1980, and set a new-all time high of US$58.83.

While silver has often been seen as a more approachable precious metal owing to its lower per ounce price, its performance has lagged gains seen in the gold price over the past few years. However, silver has stolen some of the spotlight in 2025 as it sees significant gains on the back of geopolitical tension and economic uncertainty from the US trade and tariff policy.

Like gold investing, investors can invest in silver in several ways that each offer their own pros and cons, along with differing costs and risks. For example, investors can purchase physical silver bars or coins, or trade silver futures.

Another way for investors to diversify their portfolio with silver is to invest in ETFs. These products work similarly to mutual funds in that they pool investor resources into an asset. However, as their name suggests, ETFs are traded on exchanges like stocks, making them more accessible to investors than mutual funds are.

While ETFs aren’t without risk, they can offer a more stable investment compared to individual stocks thanks to their diversification and the fact that they are often managed and rebalanced.

Silver ETFs come in several forms, such as ones that hold physical silver and ones that hold silver mining, royalty and exploration stocks. Investors looking to start trading silver ETFs should be aware of the options available to them to determine which silver ETF will best suit their precious metals investing needs and risk tolerance.

Here’s a brief look at 10 of the top silver ETFs by total assets. The first five ETFs offer exposure to the price of silver, while the last five provide exposure to silver-mining stocks.

Assets and prices for these silver ETFs were collected on December 1, 2025, using data from the funds’ web pages.

5 ETFs for exposure to the silver price

1. iShares Silver Trust (ARCA:SLV)

Total assets: US$26.33 billion
Unit price: US$51.21

The iShares Silver Trust provides investors with access to the silver price performance, using the London Bullion Market Association silver price as its benchmark.

As the iShares Silver Trust’s web page warns, it is not an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, or a commodity pool under the Commodity Exchange Act. Because of this, it is not subject to the regulatory requirements that apply to mutual funds or ETFs.

This silver trust holds 508 million ounces of silver bullion.

2. Sprott Physical Silver Trust (ARCA:PSLV,TSX:PSLV)

Total assets: US$11.61 billion
Unit price: US$18.65

The Sprott Physical Silver Trust is an option for investors looking for the security of physical silver without the need to find secure storage.

The ETF is backed by 191.12 million ounces of silver held in trust in fully allocated London Good Delivery silver bars.

Additionally, the ETF is fully convertible into physical silver, should investors decide they want the precious metal on hand. However, the fund states that holders ‘must have enough units to equate to ten 1000 oz silver bars.’

3. Aberdeen Standard Physical Silver Shares ETF (ARCA:SIVR)

Total assets: US$3.71 billion
Unit price: US$53.71

The Aberdeen Standard Physical Silver Shares ETF’s investment objective is for its shares to reflect the performance of the silver price less the expenses of the trust’s operations. It has an expense ratio of 0.3 percent.

This ETF comes with the same warnings as the iShares Silver Trust.

The fund is backed with 45.51 million ounces of silver held with JPMorgan Chase Bank in London in a secured vault.

4. ProShares Ultra Silver ETF (ARCA:AGQ)

Total assets: US$1.33 billion
Unit price: US$107.32

The ProShares Ultra Silver ETF, established in 2008, was designed to offer daily investment results that correspond with twice the daily performance of the Bloomberg Silver Subindex. Because of this, the ETF is aimed at investors who are bullish on silver and able to monitor their investments on a daily basis.

The fund uses derivatives such as futures contracts to invest in silver and has an expense ratio of 0.95 percent.

5. ProShares UltraShort Silver ETF (ARCA:ZSL)

Total assets: US$73.71 million
Unit price: US$9.51

The ProShares UltraShort Silver ETF is designed to provide investors with a hedge against declines in the silver market. ProShares launched it alongside the ProShares Ultra Silver ETF in late 2008. It also has an expense ratio of 0.95 percent.

Because the fund is built around providing results at a negative two times daily performance of the Bloomberg Silver Subindex, it is meant for traders who have a high capacity for risk and who are willing to monitor their positions on a daily basis. The fund should be treated in the same way as the Ultra Silver ETF.

5 ETFs for exposure to silver-mining stocks

1. Global X Silver Miners ETF (ARCA:SIL)

Total assets: US$3.93 billion
Unit price: US$77.66

The Global X Silver Miners ETF gives investors access to a basket of silver-mining and royalty stocks. The ETF benefits from the fact that these companies can climb when the silver price is rising. It also allows investors to avoid the risks associated with individual companies and lets them add geographical diversity to their portfolios.

This ETF has an expense ratio of 0.65 percent, and its top holdings include streaming company Wheaton Precious Metals (TSX:WPM,NYSE:WPM) at a weight of 22.5 percent, Pan American Silver (TSX:PAAS) at a weight of 12.3 percent and Coeur Mining (NYSE:CDE) at 8.1 percent.

2. Amplify Junior Silver Miners ETF (ARCA:SILJ)

Total assets: US$2.97 billion
Unit price: US$26.09

The Amplify Junior Silver Miners ETF bills itself as the ‘first and only ETF to target small cap silver miners.’ The index provides a benchmark for investors to track public small-cap companies in the silver space.

The ETF has an expense ratio of 0.69 percent and its holdings span Canada, the US and the UK, with key silver companies such as Hecla Mining Company (NYSE:HL) at a weight of 11.3 percent, First Majestic Silver (TSX:AG,NYSE:AG) at 10.3 percent and Coeur Mining at 8.7 percent.

3. iShares MSCI Global Silver Miners ETF (BATS:SLVP)

Total assets: US$630 million
Unit price: US$31.59

The iShares MSCI Global Silver Miners ETF tracks an index composed of global equities of companies primarily engaged in silver exploration or metals mining.

The ETF has the lowest expense ratio of the three ETFs focused on silver stocks at 0.39 percent.

The large majority of companies in its holdings, about 69 percent, are traded on Canadian exchanges, and companies on US and Mexican exchanges combine for 27 percent.

The top three holdings for the iShares MSCI Global Silver Miners ETF are Hecla Mining at a weight of 15.5 percent, Industrias Peñoles (BMV:PE&OLES) with a weight of 11.7 percent and Fresnillo (LSE:FRES) at 10 percent.

4. Sprott Silver Miners & Physical Silver ETF (NASDAQ:SLVR)

Total assets: US$453.7 million
Unit price: US$51.31

The Sprott Silver Miners & Physical Silver includes a combination of physical silver holdings as well as equities, setting it apart from the other silver-mining ETFs on the list.

The fund launched in January 2025, making it one of the newest entries to the list. Its management fee is 0.65 percent.

This silver ETF’s second largest holding is its counterpart Sprott Physical Silver Trust, which provides investors exposure to physical silver, at a 14.3 percent weight. Its other top holdings are First Majestic Silver at 27.12 percent and Endeavour Silver (TSX:EDR,NYSE:EXK) at 10.6 percent.

5. Sprott Active Gold and Silver Miners ETF (NASDAQ:GBUG)

Total assets: US$134.42 million
Unit price: US$41.18

Established in February 2025, the Sprott Active Gold and Silver Miners ETF is designed to provide investors broad access to both gold and silver equities. Additionally, as an active fund, it will see more frequent rebalancing to increase the potential of better returns for investors.

The fund’s top holdings consist of OceanaGold (TSX:OGC,OTCQX:OCANF) weighted at 4.32 percent, G Mining Ventures (TSX:GMIN,OTCQX:GMINF) at 4.18 percent and Equinox Gold (TSX:EQX,NYSEAMERICAN:EQX) at 4.16 percent.

Its management fee is 0.89 percent.

Airbus says most of its recalled 6,000 A320 jets are now modified

PARIS — Airbus fleets were returning toward normal operations on Monday after the European plane maker pushed through abrupt software changes faster than expected, as it wrestled with safety headlines long focused on rival Boeing.

Dozens of airlines from Asia to the United States said they had carried out a snap software retrofit ordered by Airbus, and mandated by global regulators, after a vulnerability to solar flares emerged in a recent mid-air incident on a JetBlue A320.

Airbus said on Monday that the vast majority of around 6,000 of its A320-family fleet affected by the safety alert had been modified, with fewer than 100 jets still requiring work.

But some require a longer process and Colombia’s Avianca continued to halt bookings for dates until December 8.

Sources familiar with the matter said the unprecedented decision to recall about half the A320-family fleet was taken shortly after the possible but unproven link to a drop in altitude on the JetBlue jet emerged late last week.

Shares in Airbus were down 2.1% in early trading in Paris.

Following talks with regulators, Airbus issued its 8-page alert to hundreds of operators on Friday, effectively ordering a temporary grounding by ordering the repair before next flight.

“The thing hit us about 9 p.m. [Jeddah time] and I was back in here about 9:30. I was actually quite surprised how quickly we got through it: there are always complexities,” said Steven Greenway, CEO of Saudi budget carrier Flyadeal.

The instruction was seen as the broadest emergency recall in the company’s history and raised immediate concerns of travel disruption particularly during the busy U.S. Thanksgiving weekend.

The sweeping warning exposed the fact that Airbus does not have full real-time awareness of which software version is used given reporting lags, industry sources said.

At first airlines struggled to gauge the impact since the blanket alert lacked affected jets’ serial numbers. A Finnair passenger said a flight was delayed on the tarmac for checks.

Over 24 hours, engineers zeroed in on individual jets.

Several airlines revised down estimates of the number of jets impacted and time needed for the work, which Airbus initially pegged at three hours per plane.

“It has come down a lot,” an industry source said on Sunday, referring to the overall number of aircraft affected.

The fix involved reverting to an earlier version of software that handles the nose angle. It involves uploading the previous version via a cable from a device called a data loader, which is carried into the cockpit to prevent cyberattacks.

At least one major airline faced delays because it lacked enough data loaders to handle dozens of jets in such a short time, according to an executive speaking privately.

UK’s easyJet and Wizz Air said on Monday they had completed the updates over the weekend without cancelling any flights.

JetBlue said late Sunday it expected to have completed work to return to service 137 of 150 impacted aircraft by Monday and plans to cancel approximately 20 flights for Monday due to the issue.

Questions remain over a subset of generally older A320-family jets that will need a new computer rather than a mere software reset. The number of those involved has been reduced below initial estimates of 1,000, industry sources said.

Industry executives said the weekend furor highlighted changes in the industry’s playbook since the Boeing 737 MAX crisis, in which the U.S. plane maker was heavily criticized over its handling of fatal crashes blamed on a software design error.

It is the first time Airbus has had to deal with global safety attention on such a scale since that crisis. CEO Guillaume Faury publicly apologized in a deliberate shift of tone for an industry beset by lawsuits and conservative public relations. Boeing has also declared itself more open.

“Is Airbus acting with the Boeing MAX crisis in mind? Absolutely — every company in the aviation sector is,” said Ronn Torossian, chairman of New York-based 5W Public Relations.

“Boeing paid the reputational price for hesitation and opacity. Airbus clearly wants to show … a willingness to say, ‘We could have done better.’ That resonates with regulators, customers, and the flying public.”

Catch of the year? Treylon Burks has highlight-reel one-handed TD grab

Treylon Burks, take a bow.

The Washington Commanders receiver entered his name into the catch of the year conversation on ‘Sunday Night Football’ in Week 13, hauling in an unbelievable touchdown grab against the Denver Broncos.

Like most things this time of year, seeing is believing. Take a look:

With a corner fade in the end zone, Marcus Mariota lofted one up for Burks, who made the one-handed catch despite falling backwards and taking contact from Broncos cornerback, Riley Moss – who was, fittingly, ‘Mossed’ on the play.

It was an exclamation point on Burks’ second career touchdown and his first since 2022.

The play had a remarkable resemblance to the famous Odell Beckham Jr. catch for the New York Giants on ‘Sunday Night Football’ on Nov. 23, 2014. Nearly 11 years ago to the day, Burks proved that history does repeat itself sometimes.

Beckham was quick to point out the connection on X, even including that Burks is wearing the same No. 13.

Of course, Beckham’s catch was on a longer throw, and he snagged it after the ball was beyond his head, but that doesn’t take away from the degree of difficulty on this one.

While SEC rivalries have been all the rage over Thanksgiving weekend, this Arkansas Razorback and LSU Tiger can share a moment in the spotlight.

After all, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Chargers get important victory as team enters brutal final stretch

INGLEWOOD, CA —  Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers’ 31-14 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders didn’t come without a scare.

Herbert left the game briefly in the first half due to a fracture in his left hand. He returned to the game with a white glove on the injured hand.

“He’s as tough as they come. Taped it up with a glove,” Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh said. “He played a great game.”

Sunday’s victory improved the Chargers (8-4) to 4-0 in the AFC West, and they currently occupy fifth place in the AFC playoff picture.

However, Herbert’s health looms large. Herbert is scheduled to undergo a procedure to repair his left hand on Monday, a week before the Chargers host the Philadelphia Eagles. The Chargers quarterback is optimistic he’ll be able to play in the prime-time game.

Herbert’s been under constant pressure this season as the Chargers adjust to life without starting offensive tackles Rashawn Slater (knee) and Joe Alt (ankle), who are both out for the year.

Herbert faced pressure an NFL-high 188 times entering Week 13, according to Pro Football Focus. He was sacked three times and hit another four times Sunday.  

The Chargers can ill-afford to be without Herbert for any duration if they hope to get into the playoffs. Los Angeles is currently second in the AFC West behind the Denver Broncos (9-2). Surpassing Denver in the division appears unlikely, so a wild-card spot seems to be the team’s most realistic path to the postseason. Sunday’s win gave the Chargers a 61% chance to reach the postseason as the calendar flips to the December stretch run.

However, the Chargers are approaching a daunting five-game stretch to close the regular season as they face the Eagles, Kansas City Chiefs, Dallas Cowboys, Houston Texans and Broncos to end the year. All five opponents are .500 or better and in the playoff hunt. Week 13’s tilt was a game the Chargers needed to have as they embark on a five-game gauntlet.

‘We got some great teams coming up, all playoff caliber teams,’ Chargers safety Derwin James said. “This was a big win moving forward. And any time you can stay 4-0 on the division, you give yourself a chance with five games left.”

Chargers players know what’s on the horizon, beginning with the Eagles, but they insist they aren’t looking too far ahead.

“For us to be able to come away with a win (Sunday) was big for us,” Herbert said. “I think it’s just week by week. We got to do our job. Especially when we when we play on Sundays, or whether we’re playing on Monday. All we can control is our attitude, our effort, and how we take care of business. Anything outside of that is out of our control. You can monitor it, but you can’t do too much to change it.”

The Chargers did “take care of business” against the lowly Raiders (2-10). But it came with an injury scare. The Chargers’ most indispensable player needs a fracture in his left non-throwing hand repaired, and questions about the team’s ability to protect him are bound to persist.  

All the while, the next handful of games will determine their playoff fate.

Auburn bets on Alex Golesh fixing Tigers’ offense. Expert grades the hire

Alex Golesh to Auburn may have gone under the radar considering Lane Kiffin grabbed the spotlight and Florida had Steve Spurrier and Urban Meyer gloss its new hire.

Golesh led South Florida to a 9-3 record this season, the program’s most wins in eight years. Over his three-year tenure at USF, Golesh went 23-15. He took over a Bulls program that had gone just 4-29 in the three seasons before he was hired.

Under the 41-year-old Golesh, the Bulls finished among the top 35 FBS teams in scoring offense in each of his three seasons. This season, it averaged 43 points per game, the fourth-best mark in the FBS.

Here’s who we grade the Tigers’ hire:

Grade: B-

Auburn needs help on offense to pull it out of yearslong rut, and Golesh shows some chops for the assignment. He’s worked inside the SEC and was Josh Heupel’s offensive coordinator when Tennessee toppled Alabama in 2022 and the Vols’ up-tempo spread system led the nation in offense.

Golesh did a solid job at South Florida in his first coaching gig. The Bulls were 1-11 the year before he arrived. By this season, Golesh’s Year 3, the Bulls upset Florida and went 9-3. They fizzled a bit in the second half of the schedule. USF enjoys an advantage as one of the best-resourced programs in the American Conference, and it’s located in enviable recruiting territory.

Golesh can’t expect such a head-start on his SEC peers while at Auburn, and USF fans were appropriately disappointed Golesh couldn’t get this year’s team to the American Conference championship game, after peaking early in wins against Boise State and Florida.

Golesh is a more unproven hire than Auburn’s past two, but after Bryan Harsin and Hugh Freeze failed miserably, you could argue it’s worth taking a shot on a rising 41-year-old talent.

The up-tempo spread system Golesh is trained in has become less novel inside the SEC in recent years. Golesh will join Heupel, Lane Kiffin and Jeff Lebby as coaches who operate a version of this offense. Does that increase in familiarity sacrifice some of the advantage Tennessee enjoyed while Golesh was there? Perhaps.

He also must prove himself as a recruiter while going toe-to-toe with the likes of Kirby Smart, Kalen DeBoer and others in blue-chip battles.

Golesh is a bit of a gamble, but not a total Hail Mary, and he’s a hopeful choice after the retread shot with Freeze flopped.

Finding joy in the process is what fuels Mikaela Shiffrin’s success

COPPER MOUNTAIN, Colo. — Mikaela Shiffrin’s skiing greatness doesn’t come from the wins or the records.

It comes from the quiet moments in training, when she’s obsessing over the tiniest of details and repeating a drill over and over to perfect her technique. Without those moments, the ones only her team sees, you wouldn’t get the big moments the whole world sees.

‘The attention to detail, that’s where she’s got it,’ Karin Harjo, Shiffrin’s head coach, said after Shiffrin won the slalom at Copper Mountain for her 104th World Cup victory.

‘What’s great is that she’s getting into this place, especially in slalom, where she’s really comfortable and she’s bringing the training scheme to racing,’ Harjo continued. ‘And that speed is something that I think for the world to see is great because it’s pushing the level of sport, showing what is possible, and I think that’s one of the coolest things that you can ever do.’

It may seem as if Shiffrin’s entire career has occurred in rarefied air. A World Cup winner at 17. The youngest to win the Olympic slalom. A five-time overall champion. A two-time Olympic gold medalist. Winner of a record 17 World Cups in a single season. Most World Cup wins of any skier, male or female.

But Shiffrin is human, and her current dominance came out of that frailty.

It was a year ago this weekend that Shiffrin suffered a puncture wound in her abdomen in a crash during the second run of the giant slalom at the World Cup in Killington, Vermont. She would miss the next two months of the season and, even after she returned, struggled with PTSD about the GS. Slalom was safer, but she was still fighting to regain her rhythm and momentum.

The offseason gave Shiffrin a chance to reset and immerse herself in the process, her favorite thing about skiing.

Some people ski for the medals or fame or money. Shiffrin skis for the joy she gets from making good turns and figuring out how to squeeze another tenth of a second or two out of herself.

‘I am so obsessed with the feeling that I get in between the start and the finish when it’s good,’ Shiffrin said Sunday. ‘It’s just such a beautiful feeling, and when I can improve that a little bit, that’s motivating. The second run was the motivating thing for me. And then to do it and to anticipate it, to visualize it and then to execute it and to actually get to the bottom and see that it was indeed well done, that’s the best feeling.’

That feeling feeds her confidence. And her confidence feeds her skiing.

She talked after the first run of being able to trust her slalom skiing. She hasn’t had a lot of time training slalom of late, but what she did have was solid and that allows her to trust that the work she’s put in will carry over onto the race course.

‘She’s found a place in which she can start to push again,’ said Paula Moltzan, who has been skiing with Shiffrin since they were teenagers.

‘I think after the crash in GS, she lacked confidence. She could clearly still win, but you just see that confidence coming back into her every turn, every race,’ Moltzan said. ‘That second run, the conditions are really tough, it’s a hometown crowd and she just handles everything with such grace. It’s pretty inspiring.’

The wins, the results — they just reinforce that it’s pushing herself in training that matters. It’s that constant challenge of making her turns just a tad quicker, just a bit tighter that’s her superpower.

‘Everybody talks about momentum, and really momentum is just an action or force that leads to the next step,’ Harjo said. ‘And so we’re always looking forward and taking the next step and working hard. Results in the past, both successful and not successful, happen. But we keep moving forward.’

Shiffrin is still trying to replicate what she’s doing in slalom in GS, which is no surprise given the trauma of last season. But she knows she is getting closer.

Though she finished 14th in the GS on Saturday, she was able to make adjustments from the first run to the second. After being 18th in the first run, she was 10th in the second, and was briefly atop the leaderboard.

‘It was another step,’ Harjo said. ‘I think sometimes people forget the mental side, how long it takes to come back from that. They have an expectation that she’s just going to dominate everything.’

Shiffrin isn’t worried about meeting other peoples’ expectations or even being back on the podium in GS or racing super-G. She is searching for that sweet spot in her training, because she knows once she finds it, it’ll be there on race day, too.

‘It’s going to just continue to take time,’ Shiffrin said. ‘But that’s a really motivating thing.’

Because it’s those little things that make her many, many great things possible.

Locksley Resources Limitedto Establish ADR Program with BNY Mellon

Perth, Australia (ABN Newswire) – Locksley Resources Ltd (ASX:LKY,OTC:LKYRF) (FRA:X5L) (OTCMKTS:LKYRF) announced that it has been progressing a sponsored Level 1 American Depositary Receipt (‘ADR’) program with The Bank of New York Mellon (‘BNY’), the global leader in depositary receipt services. The Company has been advised that the ADR program will be available on or after 3rd of December 2025 onwards. Each ADR will represent 20 ordinary shares.

Why ADRs benefit Locksley and the Market

The establishment of an ADR program represents a significant step forward in Locksley’s global capital markets positioning, moving beyond the perception of an ASX microcap and into a structure trusted by major global institutions.

An ADR is a U.S dollar-denominated trading instrument that allows U.S. investors to gain exposure to non-US companies without the need for cross-border or cross-currency complexities. Importantly, the establishment of the ADR program is not a new offer of securities, therefore no additional shares will be issued or any capital raised.

Key benefits include:

– Institutional Accessibility: Many U.S. funds are restricted from investing directly in ASXlisted small caps. A U.S.-traded ADR opens access to tier-one U.S. institutions, wealth managers, and ETFs that otherwise cannot participate.

– Credibility and Perception Uplift: Partnering with BNY Mellon is widely regarded as a strong indicator of governance quality and market standing

– Liquidity & Marketability: ADRs trade in U.S. dollars during U.S. market hours, improving visibility, liquidity and ease of settlement for U.S investors

– Peer Alignment: ADRs are already used by leading Australian and global resources companies, placing Locksley alongside a well-recognised peer group

– Future Capital Pathway: The ADR framework establishes early infrastructure for potential future U.S exchange listings and builds a trading history with U.S Investors

Background on BNY Mellon

– BNY is the world’s largest provider of depositary receipt services, with a 41% global market share and a 68% share in Australia. The firm acts as depositary for 12 of the 14 Australian companies currently listed on Nasdaq and provides depositary services to over 90% of Fortune 100 companies worldwide

– BNY’s dedicated Depositary Receipts platform provides issuers with a full suite of services, including investor relations advisory, U.S. capital markets connectivity, dividend and proxy management, and access to the largest team of DR specialists in the market

Precedent Companies

Many Australian and global companies utilise ADR programs as part of their U.S. investor engagement strategies, including BHP, Rio Tinto, Fortescue Metals, QBE, Telstra, and CSL. Locksley’s ADR program will provide U.S. investors with streamlined access to the Company’s Mojave Critical Minerals Project in California, a project strongly aligned with U.S. government and defence supply chain priorities. The program will enhance Locksley’s visibility among U.S. institutions, funds and retail investors seeking exposure to critical minerals.

Kerrie Matthews, Locksley CEO commented:

‘Progressing with The Bank of New York Mellon to establish an ADR program represents another important step in Locksley’s U.S. capital markets strategy. Since commencing as CEO, I have focused on positioning Locksley not just as another Australian junior, but as a company of global strategic importance.’ ‘The ADR program enables U.S. institutions and investors to participate in our vision to deliver a 100% U.S. Mine to Market antimony solution. This uplifts our profile, expands our investor reach and sets the stage for long term capital pathways as we fast-track Mojave’s development.’

About Locksley Resources Limited:

Locksley Resources Limited (ASX:LKY,OTC:LKYRF) (FRA:X5L) (OTCMKTS:LKYRF) is an ASX listed explorer focused on critical minerals in the United States of America. The Company is actively advancing exploration across two key assets: the Mojave Project in California, targeting rare earth elements (REEs) and antimony. Locksley Resources aims to generate shareholder value through strategic exploration, discovery and development in this highly prospective mineral region.

Mojave Project

Located in the Mojave Desert, California, the Mojave Project comprises over 250 claims across two contiguous prospect areas, namely, the North Block/Northeast Block and the El Campo Prospect. The North Block directly abuts claims held by MP Materials, while El Campo lies along strike of the Mountain Pass Mine and is enveloped by MP Materials’ claims, highlighting the strong geological continuity and exploration potential of the project area.

In addition to rare earths, the Mojave Project hosts the historic ‘Desert Antimony Mine’, which last operated in 1937. Despite the United States currently having no domestic antimony production, demand for the metal remains high due to its essential role in defense systems, semiconductors, and metal alloys. With significant surface sample results, the Desert Mine prospect represents one of the highest-grade known antimony occurrences in the U.S.

Locksley’s North American position is further strengthened by rising geopolitical urgency to diversify supply chains away from China, the global leader in both REE & antimony production. With its maiden drilling program planned, the Mojave Project is uniquely positioned to align with U.S. strategic objectives around critical mineral independence and economic security.

Tottenham Project

Locksley’s Australian portfolio comprises the advanced Tottenham Copper-Gold Project in New South Wales, focused on VMS-style mineralisation

Massan Resource Infill and Extension Drilling Delivers More Positive Results

West African gold explorer Asara Resources Limited (ASX: AS1; Asara or Company) is pleased to announce the second set of results from 11 drill holes (totalling 2,455m) from the Phase 1 Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling program within the Massan deposit Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) area at its flagship Kada Gold Project (Kada) in Guinea.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Drilling to date has focused on increasing geological confidence and on extending the down-dip mineralisation envelope at the Massan deposit within the Kada project.
  • The latest results demonstrate continuity between drillholes across the remaining Inferred areas, reinforcing confidence in the geological model and confirming consistent, broad zones of mineralisation.
  • Depth-extension drilling beyond the US$1,800/oz pit shell confirms that mineralisation continues at depth, returning robust gold intersections within fresh rock and identifying new zones of deeper mineralisation.
  • Phase 2 drilling will target strike extensions to the north and south to further grow the resource footprint.
  • Notable gold intersections from the assays received for the most recent eleven drillholes include:
    • MSRC25-014: 55m @ 1.0 g/t gold from 17m. Including,
      7m @ 3.1 g/t gold from 28m.
      12m @ 1.35 g/t gold from 239m. Including,

Additional RC Drilling Results Confirm High-Grade Continuity at Massan Prospect

The Company is pleased to announce the receipt of assay results from a further eleven RC drill holes, totalling 2,455 metres, completed at the Massan prospect (Figure 1 and Figure 2). This phase of drilling has been strategically designed to both infill the existing drilling dataset by improving geological confidence in the mineralised zones to a vertical depth of ~150 metres, and to test the down-dip depth extensions of the deposit beyond previously defined depth limits (Figure 3 and Figure 4).

As with the previous set of assay results reported in September, this batch of assay results from the drill holes drilled within the central portion of the Massan deposit has again returned significant mineralised intersections, reinforcing the continuity and robustness of the mineralisation within the core zone and validating the accuracy of the geological model against which drillhole planning has been based.

Matt Sharples, CEO of Asara, commented:

“The latest batch of assay results from the Phase 1 drilling program at the Massan deposit at Kada is highly encouraging. Not only do they confirm the widths and tenures of the expected grades, but most importantly, the intercepts were encountered exactly where predicted. This validates the accuracy of our geological model, strengthens our understanding of the genesis of the gold and derisks our exploration targeting. This enhances our success rate and continues to lower our $/oz discovery cost at a deposit which continues to grow in scale.

Both the reported depth-extension results and the near-surface infill drilling have validated our targeting and underscore the scale of Massan. We will continue to refine and update our drill plan, and we look forward to receiving the next batch of assays, which will further guide and shape our near-term exploration strategy to increase geological confidence and confirm depth extensions.

Drilling activity at Massan is due to ramp up with the imminent arrival of the Sahara Resources AC/RC rig, which will undertake a strike extension drilling campaign, designed to confirm the scale of the Massan deposit along strike, north and south, and potentially grow the Inferred Mineral Resource component of the Kada Project.”
