[{"type":"text","content":"Silver Investment Demand Set to Surge 20% as Supply Deficit DeepensIssued on behalf of Americore Resources Corp.\nVANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- USANewsGroup.com Sector Commentary — Physical investment demand for silver is on track to jump 20% in 2026, with bar and coin purchases climbing to 227 million ounces as Western buyers re-enter the market alongside sustained Indian appetite[1]. The capital rotation comes as the metal's structural supply deficit stretches into a sixth consecutive year, projected at 67 million ounces even with total mine output reaching a decade high[2].

Trinity sits within a 22,700-acre consolidated land package that incorporates optioned ground from Primus Resources surrounding a former US Borax open pit. The property carries a historic resource of 36 million silver-equivalent ounces, and Americore has been methodically compiling the geological datasets needed to advance toward a modern NI 43-101 resource estimate. An extensive historic drill database underpins the upcoming confirmation and expansion campaign. \"We continue to systematically move the Trinity Project fo...
