The problem is the cost of oil currently, and the cost this year vs last year in oil costs to excavate the gold/silver. If oil continues to run up to $100, at a price which was relatively stable between 2011-2015, as some analysts predict, the cost of mining will greatly increase. That said, some may argue that the cost of gold and silver will also have to increase to cover the cost of the mining (if there is enough global demand for the metal).
