Eduardo Landin, Chief Executive Officer said:

"We have delivered a good start to 2024 with production and costs at Inmaculada and San Jose on track to meet guidance for the year. The Mara Rosa mine started operations during the quarter, on time and on budget, and we are currently completing the final phase of the ramp-up process with the start of commercial production expected very soon.

Hochschild's balance sheet remains strong and, with rising precious metal prices and full production in Brazil, we expect to generate robust free cashflow during the remainder of the year.

Silver approaches five-year high with ‘more upside in store’. 8 Apr 2024

Gold’s all-time high may be getting the headlines right now, but silver is also benefiting from the precious metals rally, having just hit a five-year high against the pound.

Spot silver prices are currently sitting at a little over £22 per ounce, with dollar-denominated prices at $27.77, nearing the $29.10 five-year high seen in early 2021.

Analysts at UBS suggested silver could still be cheap though, given it’s still 40% below the ATH of almost $48 notched way back in 2011 and "out-of-sync" with the gold price.

Russ Mould at AJ Bell also pointed out that gold currently trades at nearly 85 times that of silver, whereas the long-term average is nearer to 65 times. “That may be enough to persuade some investors and traders that silver is ‘cheap’ relative to gold,” said Mould.

Maybe this time will be different?!
A lot of catching up to do.

How About 20x-50x Your Investment?
This is the opportunity of a lifetime. Many miners will do 20x-50x.

Gold investors have been so beaten down.
People have forgotten what has happened in the past with gold bull markets.
So no one believes any more that such predictions are possible.

Martin Armstrong: “Gold prices go up when confidence in government goes down. . . I expect the gold price will be at least around the $5,000 per ounce level by 2027 or 2028.”

According to my broker, investors including some institutional funds are switching out of Fresnillo and into HOC. It's all about the growth trajectory going forward which HOC offers.

FTSE 350 Review: The gold miners best-placed to grow
Only Endeavour Mining has kept pace with the gold price, but its recent drama shifts the focus onto smaller players
February 1, 2024
by Alex Hamer

Gold hit a new record high at the end of last year, and has floated above the $2,000 an ounce (oz) mark since. Gold and silver companies have not enjoyed the same progress, with equity and earnings upside limited by investor caution and higher costs. A longer-term view points to the tough time mining investors have had; in the past five years, only Endeavour Mining (EDV) has come close to matching the gold price.

The sector-wide view is narrow in this case because of the small number of miners in London’s top two indices. But there is value there, given the path of the gold price and the fact miners are now getting a hold on costs. The smallest of this cohort, Centamin (CEY) just announced a lower-than-expected all-in sustaining cost for 2024, raising profit expectations.

The Egyptian miner did report higher operating costs for the second half, however, so the outlook is not entirely set fair. Still a one-mine play, Centamin is also throwing cash at more drilling in the same region as its Sukari mine.

The other three precious metals specialists had a less dramatic 2023. Hochschild Mining (HOC) received its long-awaited permit for an expansion of the Inmaculuda mine in Peru, and its share price rebounded to over 100p, a 40 per cent bounce. The miner was also boosted by its new Brazilian operation, Mara Rosa. Having a mine outside Peru also cuts the single-country risk discount applied.

Hochschild’s adjusted Ebitda is expected to climb by 22 per cent this year to $289mn, as per broker Peel Hunt, although this is still $100mn below the 2021 figure.

Favourite

We have buy ratings on Endeavour, Fresnillo and Centamin, after turning bearish on Hochschild in 2022 over its permitting issues. But that issue is now cleared up, and the company is set to expand output significantly in the coming year, so we shift the company back to the favourites list. It will take some time for the profits to flow through, but Hochschild is now on more stable footing, albeit 25 per cent more expensive than when we first put it on a sell rating. Peel Hunt forecasts that adjusted cash profit will rise from $237mn in 2023 to $289mn this year.

The set up here does seem promising, whether you are a trader or an investor.
