    Listen to the news

    Discovery Mining (TSX:DSV) is reshaping its leadership bench after appointing veteran mining executive Bill Shaver to its Board of Directors and announcing a sweep of senior promotions and new corporate roles.

    At a share price of CA$12.47, Discovery Mining has been on a strong run, with a 90 day share price return of 56.66% and a 1 year total shareholder return of 136.62%. This builds on a very large 3 year total shareholder return of more than 16x and a 5 year total shareholder return above 8x as investors react to operational progress and, more recently, this leadership reshuffle.

    Most Popular Narrative: 82% Undervalued

    On the most widely followed narrative, Discovery Mining’s fair value sits at CA$70.00 per share, well above the last close at CA$12.47. That gap frames the bull case in very different terms to the current analyst target of CA$14.21.
