Don Durrett of GoldStockData.com outlines current gold and silver market dynamics, explaining why the metals continue to rise and how high they could go in the future.

He also shares his current gold and silver stock strategy.

It’s been yet another historic week for gold and silver, with both setting new price records.

The yellow metal broke through US$4,200 per ounce and then continued on past US$4,300. It rose as high as US$4,374.43 on Thursday (October 16), putting its year-to-date gain at about 67 percent.

Meanwhile, silver passed US$54 per ounce and is now up around 84 percent since 2025’s start.

Gold’s underlying price drivers are no secret — factors like central bank buying and waning trust in fiat currencies have been major themes in recent years, and they continue to provide support.

But it’s worth looking at a number of other elements currently in play.

Among them are a resurgence in the US-China trade war, which has ramped up geopolitical tensions, and the ongoing American government shutdown. The closure has stalled the release of key economic data ahead of the Federal Reserve’s next meeting later this month.

There have also been troubles at two regional banks in the US — they say they were the victims of fraud on loans to funds that invest in distressed commercial mortgages. Aside from that, Rich Checkan of Asset Strategies International sees western investors entering the market.

‘We don’t have a tidal wave or a tsunami by any stretch of the imagination, but the western investor is getting back into this,’ he said, noting that for the past few years his company has mostly been selling to high-net-worth individuals and people looking for deals. ‘Now we’re having flat-out sales.’

Checkan also weighed in on where gold is at in the current cycle, saying the indicators he tracks — including the gold-silver ratio, interest rates and the US dollar — don’t point to a top.

‘They can take a breather, there’s no question about that — you almost kind of want them to. But the reality is, there’s no top in sight,’ he said. ‘I’ve got about, I don’t know, seven, eight, nine different indicators I look at for the top in a bull market for gold. None of them are firing.’

When it comes to silver, the situation is a little more complicated.

Vince Lanci of Echobay Partners explained that the London silver market is facing a liquidity crisis — while there’s not a shortage of the metal, it isn’t in the right place, and that’s creating a squeeze.

Here’s what he said:

‘London, when it needs metal, is having a hard time getting it from Asia, because China is not cooperating with the west — for good reason in their mind. And for some reason, the US is not making its metal available as robustly as it used to, to help fill refill London’s coffers. And so that creates a short squeeze.

‘There’s enough metal in the world for current needs — let’s say for today’s needs. But it’s not where it should be. So it’s a dislocation.’

Lanci, who is also a professor at the University of Connecticut and publisher of the GoldFix newsletter on Substack, also made the point that although these circumstances are front and center now, they’re just one part of the larger ongoing bull market for silver. In his view, its growing status as a critical mineral will have major implications, and a triple-digit price is realistic.

Arcadia Economics interview

As a final point, I was recently interviewed by Chris Marcus of Arcadia Economics.

It was fun being on the other side of the camera for a change, and I have a new appreciation for everyone who sits down to answer my questions. Check out the interview below.

Perth, Australia (ABN Newswire) – Locksley Resources Ltd (ASX:LKY,OTC:LKYRF) (FRA:X5L) (OTCMKTS:LKYRF), is pleased to provide an update on the advanced research program underway at Rice University in Houston, Texas.

HIGHLIGHTS

– Rice University advancing identification of the Deep Eutectic Solvent (DES) system development

– Preliminary process parameters for the green hydrometallurgical DES process established, supporting the scoping of a pilot demonstration plant

– Locksley COO visits Rice University to review progress on DES research program

– Flotation concentrates and ROM ore samples from the Desert Antimony Mine (DAM) and EV Resources’ Los Lirios deposit, to be delivered to Rice University for expanded testwork

– American made mine-to-metal supply chain aligns with U.S. national objectives for critical mineral independence

Locksley’s Chief Operating Officer, Danny George, recently visited Rice University to review progress on the Company’s collaborative research program aimed at developing DeepSolv(TM), an innovative green hydrometallurgical solvent system for the extraction and recovery of antimony from stibnite ores and concentrates.

The visit formed part of Locksley’s ongoing engagement with the Rice University research team, led by Professor Pulickel Ajayan of the Rice Advanced Materials Institute. It provided the opportunity to directly observe the encouraging developments being achieved through the laboratory scale program.

Technical Progress

Technical sessions focused on reviewing process parameters, including solvent composition, leach kinetics, reagent recyclability, and temperature optimisation.

The DES system, employing environmentally benign ionic mixtures as an alternative to traditional reagents, has demonstrated strong potential for selective dissolution of antimony sulphides under mild conditions. This represents a major step toward establishing a low-emission, sustainable processing route for antimony production.

The collaborative review also evaluated how laboratory-scale results correlate with potential commercial-scale process configurations. Mass-balance considerations were assessed in preparation for scaling up to a pilot demonstration plant, with emphasis on solvent recovery efficiency, reagent stability, and downstream metal recovery pathways.

These findings confirm that the research program remains closely aligned with Locksley’s commercialisation strategy, advancing toward a technically robust, scalable, and economically sustainable antimony production process.

Danny George, Locksley Chief Operating Officer commented;

‘It was a privilege to spend time with the talented team at Rice University and see firsthand the impressive progress being made. The collaboration continues to deliver strong technical outcomes, and we’re excited about how this work is shaping the foundation for future commercial application.

The novelty of the DES-based process lies specifically in the solvent chemistry and its enhanced selectivity for antimony dissolution-representing a true breakthrough in reagent innovation rather than a complete process redesign.

Importantly, the downstream processing stages utilise established hydrometallurgical methods, ensuring a clear pathway toward commercial scalability, operational reliability, and regulatory acceptance. This is a strong example of how academic innovation and industry experience can work hand in hand to deliver next-generation solutions for the critical minerals sector.’

Next Steps

The next phase of work will include the delivery of flotation concentrates and ROM ore from the Desert Antimony Mine (DAM) and Los Lirios deposits to Rice University to further expand the testing regime. This work will underpin the design and scoping of the planned pilot demonstration plant, marking another significant milestone in Locksley’s development of a 100% American-made antimony supply chain.

About Locksley Resources Limited:

Locksley Resources Limited (ASX:LKY,OTC:LKYRF) (FRA:X5L) (OTCMKTS:LKYRF) is an ASX listed explorer focused on critical minerals in the United States of America. The Company is actively advancing exploration across two key assets: the Mojave Project in California, targeting rare earth elements (REEs) and antimony. Locksley Resources aims to generate shareholder value through strategic exploration, discovery and development in this highly prospective mineral region.

Mojave Project

Located in the Mojave Desert, California, the Mojave Project comprises over 250 claims across two contiguous prospect areas, namely, the North Block/Northeast Block and the El Campo Prospect. The North Block directly abuts claims held by MP Materials, while El Campo lies along strike of the Mountain Pass Mine and is enveloped by MP Materials’ claims, highlighting the strong geological continuity and exploration potential of the project area.

In addition to rare earths, the Mojave Project hosts the historic ‘Desert Antimony Mine’, which last operated in 1937. Despite the United States currently having no domestic antimony production, demand for the metal remains high due to its essential role in defense systems, semiconductors, and metal alloys. With significant surface sample results, the Desert Mine prospect represents one of the highest-grade known antimony occurrences in the U.S.

Locksley’s North American position is further strengthened by rising geopolitical urgency to diversify supply chains away from China, the global leader in both REE & antimony production. With its maiden drilling program planned, the Mojave Project is uniquely positioned to align with U.S. strategic objectives around critical mineral independence and economic security.

Locksley Resources (ASX:LKY,OTQB:LKYRF,FSE: X5L) has been featured by The Sydney Morning Herald after achieving a major metallurgical breakthrough at its Desert antimony mine in California. The Australian company’s early flotation tests produced a 68.1 percent antimony concentrate, significantly surpassing industry benchmarks and nearing the theoretical maximum purity for stibnite.

The SMH report highlighted the result as evidence of the project’s strong potential and the relative simplicity of its processing method.

The test work, carried out in the United States, used a straightforward combination of rougher, regrind and cleaner flotation stages, yielding a high-grade product with low impurities. Locksley said the process required minimal modification, indicating the ore could be refined to ramp up both grade and recovery

The company plans to advance bulk underground sampling and pilot-scale testing, and will collaborate with Rice University to trial DeepSolv processing methods aimed at optimizing recovery.

According to the article, the development comes at a strategically important time. Antimony is a critical mineral used in defense, electronics and energy applications, and the United States is actively seeking to strengthen domestic supply chains under its “Made in America” initiative. If Locksley can replicate these results at scale, the Desert antimony mine could emerge as a key domestic source of high-grade antimony for the US market.
