Kuya Silver - Vertical Integration: Letter of Intent to Acquire Processing Plant in Peru

14 minutes

In this episode, we sit down with David Stein, President and CEO of Kuya Silver (CSE: KUYA | OTCQB: KUYAF | FRA: 6MR1), to discuss a transformative milestone for the Company. Following a significant CAD $25.5 million capital raise, Kuya Silver has announced a Letter of Intent (LOI) to acquire the very processing plant currently treating ore from their Bethania Silver Mine in Peru.

Key Discussion Points

The Transition to Vertical Integration: Why the Company is acquiring the existing operational facility they already utilize.

Capacity and Expansion Timelines: A look at the immediate plans to scale from 150 tons per day (tpd) to the phase one target of 350 tpd by year-end.

Economic Synergies and Cost Savings: How owning the plant eliminates third-party tolling fees and leverages the Peruvian hydroelectric grid for cheaper, greener power.

Maintaining Operational Flexibility: Why this acquisition doesn’t rule out the future construction of the Bethania plant, but rather adds a "middle step" to double production capacity to 700 tpd.

Profitability in a High-Silver Environment: David discusses the impact of current spot prices on the Company’s break-even points and the strength of their "war chest" for upcoming exploration.
