Wheaton Precious Metals - Growth Plans, Streaming Advantages & What To Expect In 2025

Randy Smallwood, President and CEO of Wheaton Precious Metals (TSX | NYSE | LSE: WPM), outlines the company’s multi-year growth strategy and discusses how the streaming model is uniquely positioned to thrive in today’s precious metals market.

 

Randy shares how Wheaton is entering a major growth cycle, targeting a 60% increase in production by 2031, supported by a robust balance sheet ($829M in cash, no debt) and four new mines beginning deliveries in 2025.

 

Key topics include:

• Flagship Asset Growth: Updates on Salobo Phase 3 and Antamina, both poised for higher-grade output.
  
  
• New Production in 2025: Blackwater (Artemis Gold), Goose (B2Gold), Mineral Park, and Platreef (Ivanhoe Mines).
  
  
• Strategic Leverage: The benefits of streaming over royalty models - especially in a rising gold price environment.
  
  
• Montage Gold Case Study: How a 100% stream-financed model could reshape single-asset project development.
  
  
• Jurisdiction & ESG Strategy: How Wheaton manages political and community risks, while recently expanding selectively into Africa.
• Investor Sentiment: Rising interest from generalist funds and Western retail investors, especially in silver exposure (~40% of WPM’s revenue).
