Explorer 'On the Road to Production'

Source: Streetwise Reports 01/21/2020

The next steps for the precious metals company are provided in a ROTH Capital Partners report.

In a Jan. 17 research note, analyst Jake Sekelsky reported that ROTH Capital Partners raised its price target on SilverCrest Metals Inc. (SIL:TSX.V) to $7.75 per share from $7.25. The current share price is $6.85. “Our increased valuation is primarily a reflection of rolling our model forward to 2020, coupled with the inclusion of the company’s financing announced in Q4/19,” he added.

Sekelsky noted that SilverCrest will be announcing in Q1/20 results from several hundred holes drilled at the Las Chispas property in 2019. It will include all results available through the end of Q1/20 into the upcoming feasibility study. After, it will likely shift focus “from infill drilling for the feasibility study to expansionary drilling at various targets across the company’s land package,” he added.

The analyst highlighted that with C$124 million in its treasury, SilverCrest is well funded for both exploration and development work this year. Its financial position also portends a positive production decision, expected around mid-2020. Accordingly, production could begin as soon as late 2021 but more conservatively in Q1/22.

Sekelsky commented, “2019 featured significant exploration success culminating in the establishment of what we view as a significant resource estimate at Las Chispas, which outlined
over 100 million high-grade AgEq ounces. Despite this, we believe the surface has just been scratched as Las Chispas and expected 2020 to serve as a transformational year.”

ROTH has a Buy rating on SilverCrest.
