Hecla Mining Stock Drops on Silver Price Weakness

Hecla Mining's stock price fell on September 1, 2026, due to weaker silver prices and rising global bond yields that weighed heavily on precious metals miners. The company reported a revenue miss for Q2 2026, falling short of market expectations.

The stock closed at $19.08 on the New York Stock Exchange, down about 0.7 percent since the start of 2026, according to MarketBeat data. Hecla Mining's peers, including Coeur Mining and major gold producers, also declined in value, with mining stocks retreating overall.
