On behalf of Sprott Money, Craig Hemke today interviewed Canadian mining entrepreneur Eric Sprott for their 2025 yearly review and they celebrated what seems like the imminent triumph of the monetary metals.

Even so, Sprott says, the prices of gold and silver mining company shares are not yet keeping up with metal prices as they should, though the industrial fundamentals in favor of silver particularly have become overwhelming, far beyond what current mining production can cover.
Sprott expects that 2026 will be another great year for the monetary metals and the companies that mine them.
Hemke also induces Sprott to discuss some mining companies he is most enthusiastic about.
The discussion is 47 minutes long and can be viewed at YouTube here:
