- Silver Hammer Mining Corp. is a junior resource exploration company focused on advancing past-producing high-grade silver projects in the United States. The company controls 100% of the flagship Silver Strand Mine, comprising 70 claims over a 5.5-kilometer strike length in the Coeur d’Alene Mining District in Idaho; the Eliza Silver Project and Silverton Silver Mine, both in Nevada; and the Lacy Gold Project in British Columbia, Canada. These brownfield assets target silver deposits near historic producers, with additional exposure to copper and gold discoveries; operations emphasize exploration, drilling, and resource development in top-tier mining jurisdictions including Idaho (ranked 7th globally by the Fraser Institute), Nevada (ranked 3rd), and Canada. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, at 1055 West Hastings Street Suite 300, the company changed its name from Lakewood Exploration Inc. in October 2021. Recent developments include closing a fully subscribed C$1.81 million non-brokered private placement in September 2025 to fund exploration at Silver Strand, Eliza, and Silverton; entering an option agreement on October 20, 2025, with Fahey Group Mines Inc. to acquire 100% interest in the 360-acre Fahey Group Property of 18 claims in Idaho’s Silver Valley between Sunshine Silver Mining and Americas Gold and Silver properties, subject to US$50,000 cash, C$450,000 in shares, C$1.5 million in exploration expenditures, and a 2% NSR royalty; and advancing to a Phase One drill program of up to 5,000 feet in eight reverse circulation holes at Silverton, commencing in November 2025 to test below historic high-grade workings, alongside permitting for Eliza and initial planning for Fahey.
