Silver explodes to record highs in 2025 — Hecla Mining skyrockets nearly 300%

Silver has experienced a stellar rally in 2025. While demand remains strong, it’s the limited supply that is truly pushing the market higher.

Last week, silver (XAGUSD:CUR) surged past $65 per ounce for the first time, significantly surpassing its 1980 peak, and has risen 128% year-to-date.

In this context, UBS said it remains bullish on silver, largely due to the bank’s expectation that gold should continue to make new highs in the coming year.

And with the metal on track for an eighth straight month of gains, mining stocks aren’t far behind—Hecla Mining (HL) leads with nearly a 300% rise, followed by Coeur Mining (CDE) and First Majestic Silver (AG) at roughly 200%.
