wr - re:SIL Cost of production below $2. Nice. If I am correct, they still are not producing?
They also draw a heavy weight of lead and zinc in their ore.
Basically they still are in early stage of exploration.

Dunno, but reading the management discussion apexsilver.com and some press releases my impression is that the company is a speculative financial company (based in the Caymans)

To complete the project financing for San
Cristobal, our company expects to be required to
hedge a portion of its planned production. In addition,
when San Cristobal enters production, we may
sell forward a portion of our production and use
price hedging techniques to mitigate some of the
risks associated with fluctuating metals prices. Our
company currently engages in limited metals trading
activities, utilizing puts and calls and other market
instruments in anticipation of potential lender
requirements for the San Cristobal project financing.
See “Results of Operations”.
(2001 full years results).

Guess they would have used other words after the Enron affair.

San Cristobal proven amd probable = 15 oz. of Si per share, plus pounds of lead and zinc which have to be processed.
