Hecla Mining, the largest US silver producer, reported a 13% increase in silver output for 2024, mining 16.2 million ounces (moz)—the second-highest level in its 134-year history.
However, demand showed signs of weakness, with US silver coin purchases falling 27% year-over-year in January to 3.5 moz, the lowest January demand since 2018.
