They bounced back hard but I have done well with my two replacements:finance.yahoo.com metalin.com The mineralization is sedimentary, bedded and near horizontal with drilling vertical and near vertical. R997 is impressive in its very high silver with low to very low base metal values and its thickness of 15 meters (49.2 feet) that averages 767 grams (24.7 ounces) silver, including 1 meter (3.3 feet) of 6572 grams (211.3 ounces). The diamond drill program was initiated in January 2004, and as of January 31 2005, over 26,500 meters of diamond drill core has been completed. The drill program will continue with two drills to refine and extend the boundaries of the mineralization of the Iron Oxide Manto and drill additional exploration holes into the Property's Smithsonite Manto. Both of these mantos are south of the Sierra Mojada Fault and composed of oxide zinc mineralization. These samples contained an average of 300 grams silver per metric ton (10 ounces silver per metric ton), 0.6% copper, 5.5% zinc and 2.2% lead. Within this mineralization silver grades range from kilograms (31 ounces per kilogram) to as high as 11 kilograms over a thickness of 9 meters (3.28 feet per meter) and copper grades are as high as 4%, which indicates that the Polymetallic Manto contains very high grade silver, copper mineralization.
