Dolly Varden Silver Acquires Hecla Mining’s Kinskuch Property For $5 Million In Stock
The acquisition of the Kinskuch property from Hecla will triple the total strike length of favorable Jurassic-age Hazelton-group volcanic rocks and associated “Red Line” by adding the Illiance trend to the Kitsault Valley trend.
Canada, 8th May 2025 – Sponsored content disseminated on behalf of Dolly Varden Silver. On May 5, 2025 Dolly Varden Silver (TSXV:DV) (OTC:DOLLF) (FSE: DVQ1) announced that is has signed a definitive agreement to acquire 100% of Hecla Mining Company’s Kinskuch property in northwest BC’s Golden Triangle.
The acquisition of the Kinskuch property will increase Dolly Varden’s tenure area by 400% to consolidate a district scale, contiguous claim package that includes the Kitsault Valley, Big Bulk and Kinskuch projects.
The consolidated land package will be about 77,000 hectares, which is 225 X bigger than New York City’s Central park.
The Kinskuch acquisition allows Dolly Varden Silver (an explorer) and Hecla Mining (a producer) to focus on their respective core strengths.
Hecla has a market cap of USD $3.03 billion. According to Hecla’s SEC Year-end Financial Filings, in 2024 it delivered 16.2 million ounces of silver, 141,923 ounces of gold, generating record sales of $929 million.
Hecla’s 2024 Capital Expenditures on existing mines (Greens Creek, Lucky Friday, Casa Berardi, Keno Hill) totaled $214.5 million.
Hecla has ten exploration projects on the books in the USA, Canada and Mexico. The company’s total 2024 exploration and pre-development spend was $27.3 million, less than 1% of its market cap.
Dolly Varden has a market cap of CND of $291 million. The company does not have an operating mine, therefore does not generate metal sales.
According to DV’s 2024 consolidated financial statements, DV spent $9.8 million on drilling, $1.6 million on geoscience and $1.1 million on sample analytics.
Its total 2024 exploration spend was $17.8 million, about 6% of its market cap.
HL is a producer first. DV is an explorer first.
“Consolidating Dolly Varden’s Kitsault Valley Project with our major shareholder Hecla’s large and underexplored claims covering prospective Hazelton Group rocks will allow for more efficient exploration and enable us to unlock value on our path to be a premier precious metals company.” stated Shawn Khunkhun, President and CEO of Dolly Varden.
“Additionally, we welcome Hecla’s increased share ownership in our Company,” added Khunkhun.
Kinskuch Acquisition Deal Highlights:
- DV to issue Hecla 1,351,963 shares of DV worth $5 million.
- Hecla retains 2% net smelter return royalty (NSR) on the Kinskuch property.
- NSR will include a 50% buyback right, for $5 million, allowing DV to reduce the royalty to 1% at any time.
- Hecla maintains a designated position on DV’s Technical Committee.
- DV and Hecla will collaborate to unlock the potential of the underexplored areas.
“We will be using our structural and lithological framework model developed at the Kitsault Valley Trend that has led our team to significant discoveries such as the Wolf Vein and applying them to exploration of the Illiance Trend,” states Rob van Egmond, VP Exploration for Dolly Varden.
“Hecla was successful in identifying a subparallel trend of silver-rich mineralization, located to the east of our significant silver and gold deposits,” added van Egmond.
The acquisition of the Kinskuch property from Hecla will triple the total strike length of favorable Jurassic-age Hazelton-group volcanic rocks and associated “Red Line” by adding the Illiance trend to the Kitsault Valley trend.
In the May 7, 2025 “Explainer Video” below, van Egmond outlines the exploration history and potential of the new land package.
“Hecla is giving us the rights to explore that land,” stated van Egmond in the video. “We are now the owners, but they still maintain ownership because it is an equity deal.”
“They’ve increased their percentage ownership in Dolly Varden. Indirectly, they still are part owners of that land. They trust us to do the exploration work and unlock the value.”
Both the Kitsault Valley and the Illiance trends are interpreted to be part of a district scale, sub-basin of the Eskay Rift period. The Illiance trend has seen little modern exploration work, limited to localized diamond drilling by Hecla on the three kilometer long, north-south trending Illy epithermal system.
Also included within the acquisition area is the past-producing Esperanza Mine (1910), interpreted as quartz-carbonate veins with similar silver grades to the historic Dolly Varden Mine (1920) hosted in Upper Hazelton sedimentary rocks.
According to a BC government database of historical deposits, “The Esperanza mine produced high-grade, hand-sorted silver ore sporadically between 1911 and 1948. In total, 4662 tonnes of ore with an average grade of 1.77 grams per tonne gold, 983.9 grams per tonne silver were mined”.
The southwestern portion of the acquired claims covers Hazelton Group rocks that trend to within seven kilometers of Goliath Resources’ recently discovered Surebet Zone gold mineralization.
The area south of Big Bulk has the potential to host additional gold-copper porphyry systems along the south trend towards the Kitsault molybdenum porphyry deposit, which is being actively advanced by Newmoly llc.
The Kinskuch property is covered by a recently renewed five-year Exploration Permit on both Nisga’a and Gitanyow Traditional Lands.
“Hecla didn’t walk away from Kinskuch—you could say they traded up, by handing over the property to Dolly Varden in exchange for shares, a royalty, and retaining a board seat,” wrote Jeff Valks, Senior Analyst at The Gold Advisor on May 5, 2025.
“Hecla keeps a stake in any upside without spending a dime on drills—it’s not a core property for them and they want Dolly Varden to drill it.”
The Kinskuch property acquisition is subject to TSX Venture Exchange and NYSE America approvals. It is expected to close in mid-May.
On May 7, 2025, Dolly Varden announced plans for the fully funded 2025 exploration drilling program at its 100% owned Kitsault Valley Project. A minimum planned 35,000 meters of diamond drilling will build on the success of the 2024 program.

United States, 5th Dec 2025 – Mary Drucker Palm Beach, a dedicated dental assistant and lifelong local, is taking community care beyond the exam room. Known for her attention to detail and patient-first approach, Mary Drucker has extended her commitment to oral health to the wider Palm Beach community by launching volunteer efforts to increase access to dental hygiene education and care for underserved residents.
With over a decade of experience in dental care, Mary Drucker Palm Beach understands the crucial role dental assistants play in helping patients feel comfortable, informed, and safe. She also sees what many in the industry don’t: how gaps in basic dental knowledge can impact long-term health, especially in communities with limited access to preventive care.
“Dental health isn’t a luxury. It’s a foundation for overall wellness,” said Mary Drucker Palm Beach. “And yet, so many people, including children and seniors, still lack access to basic information and resources. I knew I could do something about that.”
In partnership with local nonprofits, faith-based organizations, and independent hygienists, Drucker has begun organizing small-scale events across the Palm Beach area. These include free oral health workshops, children’s dental education programs, and mobile screenings that offer guidance on cavity prevention, flossing, and nutrition.
Most recently, Mary Drucker Palm Beach joined a weekend clinic effort that provided dental kits, oral health screenings, and hygiene education to more than 100 local residents. Many of those participants had not seen a dentist in several years.
“I may not be the dentist, but as a dental assistant, I’m trained to teach people how to care for their teeth between appointments,” she said. “That’s where health really begins, in the day-to-day.”
Colleagues in the Palm Beach dental community have taken notice. Several local practices have expressed interest in joining future events, contributing supplies, or offering time from their own staff.
Mary Drucker Palm Beach is also working with school administrators to bring oral health education into classrooms, a move she says is critical to establishing good habits early.
“A child who learns how to care for their teeth grows into an adult who values prevention,” she said. “It’s not just about cleanings and checkups. It’s about changing mindsets.”
Beyond education, Drucker hopes her outreach helps demystify dental care for people who may feel anxious or ashamed.
“Everyone deserves to feel safe and respected in the dental chair,” she said. “If I can help ease that fear, even for one person, that’s meaningful.”
Those who know Mary Drucker Palm Beach describe her as calm, efficient, and deeply compassionate. She is the kind of person who doesn’t just clock in and out but takes time to learn patients’ names and stories.
“She’s the heart of the clinic,” said one colleague. “Patients trust her because she listens, and because she genuinely cares.”
For Mary Drucker Palm Beach, the work is personal.
“This is my home,” she said. “The people I serve aren’t just patients. They’re my neighbors and my community. Giving back isn’t extra. It’s essential.”
About Mary Drucker Palm Beach
Mary Drucker Palm Beach is a certified dental assistant based in Palm Beach, Florida. With a strong background in patient care and preventive education, she volunteers regularly across the region to help increase access to oral health knowledge and resources for underserved communities.
