In addition to the successful second quarter, the Company achieved record
revenues and silver production for the first half of 2011 due to increased
throughput from the Noche Buena Mine and improving grades at the San Ramon mine
resulting in higher grade mill feed, as well as completing numerous upgrades to
the 500-tpd ("tonnes-per-day") Guadalupe processing plant. Due to
higher silver prices, the Company continued to revise cut-off grades which
marginally increased the cost per ounce but contributed to increased silver
sales for the first half of 2011 producing a record $12.7 million in positive
cash flow, and an exceptional $4.9 million in net earnings ($0.08 EPS),
compared to $0.9 million ($0.02 EPS) in the comparable period in 2010. The
installation of new and more efficient float cells and silver-lead concentrate
dryer in the first quarter improved throughput and recoveries, and contributed
to silver production of 224,361 oz., up 20% from 186,890 oz. in the second
quarter 2010 and marginally down from 260,970 oz. in the prior quarter due to
the mill being shut down for four days.
The Company's financial position remained strong with $32.6 million in cash and
cash equivalents and net working capital of $33.2 million. The Company
completed a $15 million private placement in December 2010 (see IMPACT
news release dated December 15 2010) of which subsequently the warrants
attached to the placement were accelerated in June 2011 (see IMPACT
news release June 15 2011) adding $10.5 million to the Company's cash balance.
The Company's working capital is expected to remain very healthy throughout
2011 as cash flow from mining operations is planned to be sufficient to fund
the Company's planned 2011 operating costs, exploration expenditures and
equipment purchases.
In the Mamatla Mineral District, the Company focused on expediting the new open
pit Capire Mine Development Project scheduled for first production in the near
term subject to timely receipt of permits. Production plans at Capire are to
first install a 200-tpd pilot plant (already purchased) to optimize mining and
processing parameters toward planning for a larger operation in the future.
Surface rights for all mining areas, tailings dam and the processing plant have
been acquired. Condemnation drilling under the plant site, tailings dam and
rock waste piles has been completed in preparation for mine and plant
construction. When in production, Capire will be the Company's fourth active
mining operation and represents a new production district. The orientation and
shallow depth from surface of the mineralization will allow for open pit mining
of a portion of the zone.
EXPLORATION
IMPACT continues to execute its aggressive 20,000 meters surface and
underground 2011 drill program split between the 423-square-kilometer Zacualpan
Silver District and the 200-square-kilometer Mamatla Mineral District, while
building its GIS database now with over 2,000 old mine workings catalogued. The
Company has defined numerous priority drill targets and will likely exceed its
target of 20,000 meters of drilling in 2011.
The exploration team assigned to the Capire Subdistrict has been working to
expand the Capire Zone. Recent expansion drilling began to outline additional
mineralization to the north and southeast beyond the limits of the previously
defined Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources (see IMPACT
news release dated February 1, 2011). Highlights include 304g/t
silver, 4.51g/t gold, 1.52% lead, 3.05% zinc and 0.49% copper across 5.0m (see IMPACT
News Release dated August 17, 2011). IMPACT engineers are now studying
the possibility of expanding the open pit plan to incorporate these new drill
results. The deposit remains open and drilling to expand these resources is
continuing. The drill is also testing other nearby zones of mineralization.
During the quarter IMPACT announced initial first phase drill results from the
Huatecosco Gold-Silver Camp located south of IMPACT's Noche Buena Mine. Like
other prospects in this area, recent drill results included gold rich
intersections such as 6.96 g/t gold, 84 g/t silver, 2.89% lead and 5.11%
zinc across a true width of 4.24m (see IMPACT
news release dated June 02, 2011). Drilling is continuing on this
and other targets along the 16km long Huatecosco trend.
IMPACT Silver Corp. is a silver focused mining and exploration company
operating in Mexico with a producing silver operation at the 423-square-kilometer
Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver District, the 200-square-kilometer advanced
Mamatla Silver District including the Capire Mine Development Project, and an
option agreement for a major share position in Defiance Silver Corp. in return
for IMPACT's 200tpd mill and mineral concessions in the Zacatecas Silver
District (See IMPACT
news release dated August 25, 2011 for more details).
