Dividend Power Score
A single, comprehensive score designed to measure the true strength of a company’s dividend.
This score combines three essential pillars of dividend quality:
Consistency – Measures how reliable the dividend has been over time, focusing on payment history, stability, and the absence of cuts or suspensions.
Payability – Assesses the company’s financial ability to sustain its dividend, taking into account cash flow, earnings coverage, balance sheet strength, and overall financial health.
Growth – Evaluates the long-term growth of both the dividend and the company’s share price, highlighting businesses that consistently increase payouts while creating shareholder value.
Higher scores identify companies that have historically delivered dependable income alongside sustained dividend growth and long-term capital appreciation.
Company Overview
IMPACT Silver Corp. is a Canada-based mineral exploration and development company focused on the acquisition, exploration, and production of silver and base metal assets. The company operates primarily in the precious metals mining industry, with a strategic emphasis on silver, alongside by-product lead, zinc, and gold. Its core activities span exploration, mine development, and mineral processing, generating revenue through the sale of concentrates to third-party smelters.
The company’s primary assets are located in Mexico, a leading global silver-producing jurisdiction. IMPACT Silver’s strategy centers on revitalizing historic mining districts using modern exploration techniques and centralized processing infrastructure. Founded in 2006, the company evolved from an exploration-focused junior miner into a small-scale producer by acquiring and consolidating multiple historic mining concessions within established districts, most notably the Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver District.
Business Operations
IMPACT Silver conducts its operations through two principal operating segments: the Zacualpan Silver District and the Plomosas Zinc-Lead-Silver District. Revenue is generated from underground mining operations that produce silver-rich polymetallic concentrates processed at company-owned facilities. The company operates the Guadalupe Processing Plant, which serves as a centralized mill for ore extracted from multiple nearby mines, enabling operational flexibility and cost efficiencies.
Its operations are entirely international, with no producing assets in Canada. The company controls mineral concessions, underground mines, processing plants, and exploration properties through wholly owned Mexican subsidiaries, including Minera Guadalupe de los Reyes S.A. de C.V. IMPACT Silver does not currently rely on large joint ventures, instead maintaining full ownership and operational control over its producing districts.
Strategic Position & Investments
IMPACT Silver’s strategic direction emphasizes organic growth through district-scale consolidation, resource expansion, and improved production efficiency. Key growth initiatives include ongoing underground development drilling, near-mine exploration, and the advancement of the Plomosas Mine, which is focused on high-grade zinc, lead, and silver mineralization. The acquisition of Plomosas Zinc-Lead-Silver Mine marked a strategic diversification beyond silver-dominant assets.
The company continues to invest in exploration technologies, geological modeling, and processing optimization to increase recoveries and extend mine life. Its portfolio strategy prioritizes brownfield assets with existing infrastructure, reducing capital intensity while enabling scalable production increases as market conditions permit.
Geographic Footprint
IMPACT Silver’s operational footprint is concentrated in Central and Northern Mexico, where it holds extensive mineral concessions across multiple historic mining districts. Its corporate headquarters are located in Canada, while all mining, milling, and exploration activities are conducted in Mexico.
Within Mexico, the company maintains a strong presence in the State of Mexico through the Zacualpan District and in Chihuahua State through the Plomosas District. While it does not operate across multiple continents, its production feeds into global metals markets through international concentrate buyers and smelting partners.

IMPACT Silver is led by a management team with experience in mineral exploration, mine development, and capital markets. The leadership emphasizes operational control, disciplined capital allocation, and technical-driven exploration as core elements of its corporate philosophy.
