We caught up with Shawn Khunkhun, CEO of Dolly Varden Silver Corp (🇺🇸 DVS - 🇨🇦 DV) — the rare “silver unicorn” rewriting the rules of silver exploration in North America. While most of the world’s silver comes as a byproduct from mega-mines in Mexico and Peru, Dolly Varden’s British Columbia project is a high-grade, primary silver mine in a top-tier jurisdiction — making it one of the few pure silver plays left standing. Shawn breaks down how his team has defied brutal junior mining conditions to: ✅ Secure an NYSE American uplisting — joining an elite club of only ~10 pure silver equities. ✅ Complete three strategic acquisitions with minimal dilution — growing the land package from 15,000 hectares to over 100,000 hectares in just months. ✅ Launch an aggressive 35,000-meter drill program, already underway with four rigs turning — with eyes on adding another 20,000 meters if the data supports it. ✅ Lock in an oversubscribed $28.75 million financing at the highest share price in company history — doubling the treasury and avoiding a dreaded down round. We also dug deep into why the big silver and gold producers are getting rewarded — but advanced juniors like Dolly Varden remain undervalued… for now. With historic high-grade past producers now consolidated under one roof, supportive major shareholders like Hecla and Eric Sprott, and multiple catalysts on deck, Dolly Varden is positioned to break out as silver approaches historic levels. 👉 Don’t miss Shawn’s forecast for drill results hitting before the Rick Rule Symposium in Boca Raton — and why this cycle might turn silver stocks into the tech stocks of tomorrow. 📈 Ticker Symbols: 🇺🇸 DVS (OTC) 🇨🇦 DV (TSXV) 👉 Visit: https://dollyvardensilver.com 🔔 Subscribe & stay informed on major milestones, upcoming drill campaigns, and silver market trends. #silverstocks #DollyVardenSilver #Gold #MiningStocks #FinancialSurvivalNetwork #KerryLutz #ResourceInvesting **Disclaimer This interview is sponsored by Dolly Varden Silver, and Financial Survival Network has received payment to conduct this interview of thirty-one hundred and fifty dollars.
