North American mining companies are gearing up to test investor appetite for new listings after metals such as silver witnessed a surge in demand earlier this year.
Founded in 2010, Sunshine Silver focuses on the acquisition, redevelopment and operation of precious metal assets across North America.
The company is working to restart and expand a previously shuttered mine in Idaho’s Silver Valley, one of the largest historic silver-producing regions in the United States.
Its backers include The Electrum Group and Ospraie Management. According to the filing, Electrum is expected to retain more than 50% of Sunshine Silver’s outstanding shares following the completion of the IPO.
Sunshine Silver will list on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "SSMR".
