New Pacific Metals
New Pacific Metals is a Canadian exploration and development company focused on precious metals in Bolivia. Led by President and CEO Andrew Williams, the company has advanced its portfolio through drilling and resource definition at Silver Sand, a near-surface silver deposit in the Potosí Department. The company's strategy centers on advancing Silver Sand toward a development decision while continuing exploration at its Carangas silver-gold project. New Pacific has published multiple National Instrument 43-101 technical reports detailing mineral resource estimates for its Bolivian properties. The company is publicly listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and NYSE American, providing liquidity and access to North American capital markets. Headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, New Pacific has maintained a consistent operational presence in Bolivia, a country with a long mining history but limited foreign-led exploration in recent years. The company's technical team has experience operating at high altitudes in the Andes, which is required for the Silver Sand project situated at approximately 4,000 meters above sea level. The structural differentiator for New Pacific is its jurisdictional focus. Bolivia has been largely bypassed by junior mining companies due to political risk, yet New Pacific has maintained its license and community relations in the country. This gives the company a first-mover position in a mineral-rich belt where peer competition for land packages is minimal.
