Sinda Ltd. has closed its initial public offering, raising approximately $213 million in gross proceeds. The silver exploration and development company priced 17,750,000 shares of common stock at $12.00 per share. Sinda's common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on June 26, 2026, under the ticker symbol "SIND." The company intends to use the net proceeds to fund its multi-year exploration and infill drilling program, specifically to support the construction of a 9-kilometer underground exploration decline at the Caracol deposit in Mexico.

Strategic Backing and Resource Potential

Sinda has secured strategic investments from prominent institutions in the precious metals sector. Fresnillo plc, the world’s largest primary silver producer, is subscribing for up to 5% of Sinda’s outstanding shares in a private placement. Franco-Nevada, a premier global gold-focused royalty and streaming company, participated as an anchor investor with a $10 million order. Notably, Franco-Nevada’s participation is a pure equity investment with no royalty or stream attached, leaving Sinda's assets entirely unencumbered.

The company is advancing a large-scale, high-grade silver-gold discovery across five contiguous mining concessions covering approximately 6,232 hectares in the historic Guanajuato epithermal silver belt. According to a technical report summary prepared by SRK Consulting (U.S.), Inc. with an effective date of November 24, 2025, the Project hosts an estimated 369 million silver-equivalent ounces of Inferred Mineral Resources and approximately 16 million silver-equivalent ounces of Indicated Mineral Resources. The Indicated Mineral Resources carry an average grade of 692 silver-equivalent grams per tonne.

Exploration and Development Plans

To date, Sinda has identified approximately 135 veins spanning roughly 182 kilometers of strike length. The current Mineral Resource estimate is based on drilling just 38% of these known veins, leaving a significant portion of the broader land package unexplored. Sinda’s defined exploration targets range from 452 to 484 million silver-equivalent ounces, suggesting potential for additional mineralization across the district. The company plans to execute an aggressive exploration and drilling program to advance the project toward commercial production.
