The Company realized Mine Operating Earnings of $684,000 from its mining and milling operations on sales of $6.4 million for the Quarter ended June 30, 2007. Cost of sales was $5.1 million and depreciation and depletion $0.6 million.

The Operating Loss for the Quarter was $5.9 million after Exploration of $1.3 million, General and Administration costs of $1.5 million and Stock Based Compensation of $3.4 million. This compares to an Operating Profit of $69 thousand in the 2nd Quarter 2006 and comparative costs of $0.2 million for General and Administration and $1.8 million for Stock Based Compensation.

The Loss Before Taxes for the Quarter was $3.9 million after Investment and Other Income compared to a $93 thousand loss in the 2nd Quarter 2006. Foreign exchange gains were $1.5 million compared to a foreign exchange loss of 0.5 million in the 2nd Quarter of 2006 and realized gains on marketable securities was $0.2 million compared to nil in the corresponding 2nd Quarter of 2006.

The Company incurred a Loss for the Quarter of $2.1 million after Income Tax Recovery of $1.8 million compared to a loss of $0.7 million in the 2nd Quarter 2006.

The cash cost per oz of silver produced in the 2nd Quarter 2007 of US$10.19 per oz compared to the 1st Quarter 2007 of $5.85 per oz was adversely impacted by two factors: lower production of silver and gold; and higher plant operating costs.

Metal production was negatively affected by reduced throughput at Guanacevi due to decreased availability related to plant capital projects. Also during the quarter, ore processed at Guanacevi was sourced from lower grade sections of stockpiles.

For both Guanacevi and Bolanitos, the company is presently incurring additional operating costs as we implement our expansion and efficiency programs.

Silver equivalents are based on a 50 silver : 1 gold ratio using $12 silver and $600 gold.
