PAAS has done a lot in the past year to clean up its balance sheet and return to profitability. They have two mines that are now breaking even at current metal prices prices with a third one, Colorada, that will likely have a very decent profit next year. They are my second choice.

I think a silver investor should consider Corner Bay Silver as their #1 choice. It is more speculative than PAAS as BAY doesn't have a mine yet.

They are about to complete their feasibility study on Alamo Dorado, Mexico. If all goes as expected, BAY will produce more silver than PAAS in 2003-2004. The suggested production rate (as per pre-feasibility) is for 14M ounces of silver per year in the first two years at a cost of only $1.50 per ounce, then some 8-9M per year in the next 3 years at a cost below $3/oz. At current metal prices, BAY will be the most profitable silver mine. Their output will be 83% silver and 17% gold. No base metals.
