Silver Standard Resources (NASDAQ:SSRM) (NASDAQ: SSRM) is a Vancouver‐based precious metals company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of silver and gold deposits primarily across the Americas. The company’s strategy centers on advancing high‐quality projects into production while maintaining a portfolio of operating mines that deliver consistent metal output. Silver Standard emphasizes sustainable resource development and community partnership at each stage of its operations.
The company’s principal producing assets include the Marigold gold mine in Nevada, which entered commercial production in 2006; the Seabee gold operation in Saskatchewan, Canada, acquired in 2016; and the Pirquitas silver‐gold mine in Argentina, which began producing in 2009. In addition to these established mines, Silver Standard holds a pipeline of development and exploration properties, including the advanced‐stage Pitarrilla silver project in Durango, Mexico, and several grassroots exploration licences in Latin America and North America.
Founded in 1994, Silver Standard has grown through targeted acquisitions and disciplined project execution. The company is led by CEO Rodney P. Antal and a management team with extensive experience in geology, metallurgy and mine operations. Under their guidance, Silver Standard has implemented rigorous health, safety and environmental management systems, and has built long‐term relationships with local communities and stakeholders at each site.
Looking ahead, Silver Standard is focused on expanding its reserve base and advancing development projects to bolster future production. The Pitarrilla project, one of the largest undeveloped silver resources in the world, stands as a cornerstone of the company’s growth plan, while ongoing exploration programs aim to extend mine lives at existing operations and identify new mineral discoveries.
