Portfolio
Silvercorp operates a diverse portfolio of producing mines, construction-stage projects, and exploration assets across multiple jurisdictions. The company focuses on optimizing production from existing operations while strategically advancing new projects to drive future growth.
- Ying Mining District (China) – The company’s flagship operation consists of several underground mines producing silver, gold, lead and zinc in concentrates. In fiscal 2025, Ying produced 6.9 million ounces of silver and 7,495 ounces of gold, along with lead and zinc by-products. Fiscal 2026 guidance calls for continued production growth as ongoing mine optimization efforts continue to bear fruit.
- GC Mine (China) – A silver-lead-zinc mine with a history of consistent production and ongoing resource expansion through drilling. While production dipped slightly in fiscal 2025, output is expected to increase in fiscal 2026.
- El Domo (Ecuador) – A fully-permitted, copper-gold project under construction. In April 2025, Silvercorp announced a detailed and fully funded $240.5 million construction plan. Major contracts have been awarded and construction activities are underway, with commissioning expected by December 2026.
- Condor Project (Ecuador) – A gold exploration asset with significant resources. In May 2025, Silvercorp published an updated mineral resource estimate focusing on high-grade underground zones. A revised PEA is expected by the end of 2025, alongside continued permitting and community engagement efforts.
- Kuanping Project (China) – A permitted gold-lead-zinc satellite project north of Ying. Mine construction is underway and Kuanping will be an underground mine with ore to be milled at the Ying complex.

Through its diversified portfolio, Silvercorp delivers exposure to operations generating growing cash-flow, as well as high-potential growth projects that will create long-term value for shareholders.
Market Opportunity
The global demand for silver, gold, and base metals remains strong, driven by industrial applications, investment demand, and renewable energy initiatives. Silvercorp is well positioned to capitalize on rising silver demand, particularly in China, where 80% of the world’s solar panels are manufactured—an industry heavily reliant on silver.
Ecuador’s mining sector is experiencing rapid growth, with government support for foreign investment and infrastructure improvements. Mining exports in the country surged from $275 million in 2018 to $3.3 billion in 2023, highlighting the sector’s increasing economic importance. Silvercorp’s El Domo and Condor projects are poised to become key contributors to Ecuador’s mining expansion.
Industry forecasts indicate continued growth in silver and base metal prices, benefiting producers with strong operational performance and cost controls.
