Re:Silver rises 9% to hit fresh record high by mikhailfranco on Saturday December 27, 2025 @03:13AM (#46400130)
China is the world's second largest producer of silver, after Mexico and ahead of Peru.

It is introducing licensing for export of silver starting on 1 January 2026.

There is speculation that the new regulations will favor a few large companies, slow the flow of exports, and provide a mechanism for the government to impose explicit 'critical mineral' export controls on silver in the future.
