Honey Badger Silver Inc. advances a Canadian precious and critical minerals portfolio focused on silver projects in the Northwest Territories, Yukon and Nunavut. The company’s updates center on the Prairie Creek Silver Project, the Hy project, Sunrise Lake, Plata, Clear Lake and the past-producing Nanisivik Mine area, with recurring disclosures on historic silver, zinc and lead resources, exploration work and additional germanium, tungsten, indium, bismuth and copper potential.
Company news also covers research collaborations, analysis of historic drill core, exchange listings for the common shares, stock option grants, conference participation and management appointments. The shares trade in Canada on the TSX Venture Exchange under TUF and in the U.S. on the OTCQB under HBEIF.
Honey Badger Silver (HBEIF) released a positive updated Preliminary Economic Assessment and Mineral Resource Estimate for its 100%-owned PC Silver Mine in Canada.
The PEA outlines a 22‑year underground operation averaging 2.5 million oz of payable silver plus 117 million lb zinc, 95 million lb lead and 1.3 million lb copper annually, or 7.9 million oz silver‑equivalent. In the first seven years, average annual output is estimated at 3.7 million oz silver and 10.7 million oz silver‑equivalent. At Long‑Term Consensus pricing, after‑tax life‑of‑mine free cash flow is projected at C$3.2 billion, with an after‑tax NPV8% of C$1.2 billion, IRR of 29.3% and payback in 3.1 years.
Pre‑production capital totals C$667 million, including C$197 million for mine and onsite infrastructure and C$205 million for a 170 km all‑season road, plus indirect and contingency costs, with AISC net of by‑products projected at negative US$22/oz silver under the PEA Case.
Honey Badger Silver (HBEIF) will present the PC Silver Mine story and forthcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) results at two major U.S. investor conferences in September 2026. The company plans to attend the Commodities Global Expo in Tempe, Arizona from September 18-20 and the Precious Metals Summit in Beaver Creek, Colorado from September 22-25. Executive Chairman and Interim CEO Chad Williams will join a Silver Panel on September 20 and deliver a formal company presentation on September 23. Management aims to highlight the PC Silver Mine’s existing infrastructure, historical investment, large silver-equivalent resource and exposure to multiple metals, and to broaden institutional awareness ahead of the PEA release.
Honey Badger Silver (HBEIF) has engaged Tusk Automation to evaluate accelerating and lowering the cost of restarting the PC Silver Mine mill.
The PC Silver Mine in Canada hosts a largely unused processing facility that was substantially completed in 1982 and never commercially operated. Honey Badger Silver estimates the replacement cost of the existing mill at at least $300 million and notes the infrastructure has been well preserved in a cold, dry climate. Tusk will complete on-site work by the end of September 2026, with a final report expected by the end of November. The company expects Tusk’s quantified, quotation-backed findings to support a future feasibility study, while a separate Preliminary Economic Assessment remains on track for release in September 2026.
Honey Badger Silver (HBEIF) has completed its 2026 field exploration program at the 100%-owned Nanisivik Project on Baffin Island, Nunavut.
The program targeted two main opportunities: an extensive massive-pyrite system and additional silver-zinc-lead and critical-mineral potential outside historic mine workings. Field crews, managed by APEX Geoscience, collected massive pyrite and polymetallic samples (including sphalerite, galena and pyrite) from float and outcrop across multiple zones. Samples were shipped under chain-of-custody to an independent accredited lab for multi-element analysis, with assays pending.
Nanisivik’s past production totals about 17.9 Mt grading 9% zinc, 0.7% lead and 35 g/t silver, while historical publications describe 50–100 Mt of massive pyrite (non-compliant estimate). The company also corrected a prior disclosure, revising a reported gold grade from 0.54% to 0.54 g/t for one historical drill hole.
Honey Badger Silver (OTCQB: HBEIF) has completed its first-ever field exploration program at its 100%-owned Yava Project in Nunavut. The 2026 work focused on geological mapping and systematic sampling of the Yava Main Zone, nearby historic showings and untested VTEM geophysical targets, led on the ground by APEX Geoscience.
Yava hosts a historical, non‑NI 43‑101 compliant resource estimate of 1.3 Mt grading 106.8 g/t silver, 1.03% copper, 4.96% zinc, 1.60% lead and 0.30 g/t gold, defined by ten shallow drill holes to ~80 m depth and reported as remaining open at depth and along strike. Historical grab samples from regional targets reportedly returned up to 4,960 g/t silver and multi‑percent base metals. Samples from the 2026 program have been shipped under chain‑of‑custody to an independent lab in Yellowknife for geochemical analysis, with results to be integrated into Honey Badger Silver’s broader Yava database to rank and refine future drilling targets.
Honey Badger Silver (OTCQB: HBEIF) announced it has been invited to participate in the inaugural Canada Investment Summit, to be held on September 14–15, 2026, in Toronto. The event is hosted by the Government of Canada with CPP Investments and PSP Investments.
The company highlighted its 100%-owned PC Silver Mine in the Northwest Territories, a high-grade silver-zinc-lead asset with extensive existing underground workings, drilling, a mill and surface infrastructure. Honey Badger Silver outlined ongoing work toward an updated Mineral Resource Estimate and Preliminary Economic Assessment, expected in September 2026, and noted the expiry of the four-month hold period on securities from its $11.5 million equity financing closed on April 15, 2026.
Honey Badger Silver (OTCQB: HBEIF) reports extensive massive pyrite mineralization at its 100%-owned Nanisivik Silver Project in Nunavut and has begun investigating the property’s potential to host germanium in existing and new mineralized zones. The company links renewed interest to a reported >500% rise in sulphur prices and higher germanium prices driven by Chinese export controls.
According to Honey Badger Silver, Nanisivik lies around a past-producing mine that historically milled 17.9 million tonnes at 9% Zn, 0.7% Pb and 35 g/t Ag from 1976–2002, leaving unmined mineral resources. A historical, non-compliant estimate by McNeil et al. (1993) suggests 50–100 million tonnes of massive pyrite, which the company views as an indicator of exploration potential only, not a current resource or reserve. In 2025, ground EM surveys identified new conductors and grab samples from Area 14 returned up to 249 g/t silver and 51.5% zinc, supporting follow-up fieldwork and new sampling for critical metals such as germanium.
Honey Badger Silver (OTCQB:HBEIF, TSXV:TUF) will attend the 2026 Rule Symposium on Natural Resource Investing in Boca Raton, Florida, from July 6-10, 2026.
Management plans to meet shareholders, potential investors and industry participants while highlighting progress at the recently acquired PC Silver Mine in Canada's Northwest Territories.
Honey Badger Silver (OTCQB:HBEIF, TSXV:TUF) appointed engineer and technology entrepreneur Tom Chep, P.Eng. as Innovation Advisor. He will assess drone, robotic, AI, electrification, energy and automation technologies to support the planned re-start of the PC Silver Mine with a focus on efficiency, cost and sustainability.
Honey Badger Silver (OTCQB:HBEIF) has appointed JDS Energy & Mining to lead an updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) and Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for its 100%-owned PC Silver Mine in Canada’s Northwest Territories.
The studies, targeting Q3 2026 completion, will build on a 2021 MRE outlining 9.8 Mt measured and indicated and 6.4 Mt inferred, and leverage extensive existing underground development, onsite infrastructure, an airstrip, advanced permitting, Indigenous agreements, and a $25 million federal grant.
