(Marketwire via COMTEX News Network) -- Silver Standard Resources Inc. (TSX:SSO)(NASDAQ:SSRI) is pleased to report the approval of the San Luis Feasibility Study for submission to the San Luis joint venture by its board of directors. The Feasibility Study estimates an internal rate of return of 26.5+ACU- and a net present value discounted at 5+ACU- of +ACQ-39.2 million at base case prices of +ACQ-800/ounce gold and +ACQ-12.50/ounce silver. Capital expenditures are estimated to be US+ACQ-90.4 million ( 15+ACU-) for a 400 tonne/day underground mine with average annual production of 78,000 ounces of gold and 1.86 million ounces of silver over its 3.5 year mine life. +ADw-o:p+AD4APA-/o:p+AD4APA-/span+AD4APA-/p+AD4- +ADw-p style+AD0-'line-height:12.0pt'+AD4APA-span lang+AD0-EN-GB style+AD0-'font-size:9.0pt+ADs- font-family:Georgia+ADs-color:black+ADs-mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'+AD4-The San Luis Project, located in Ancash, Peru, is owned by Reliant Ventures S.A.C., a joint venture of Silver Standard and Esperanza Silver Corporation.

We advise U.S. investors that while such terms are recognized and permitted under Canadian regulations, the SEC does not recognize them. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in the measured and indicated categories will ever be converted into reserves. +ACY-quot+ADs-Inferred mineral resources+ACY-quot+ADs- in particular have a great amount of uncertainty as to their economic feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules estimates of inferred mineral resources may not generally form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of an inferred mineral resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of contained metal expressed in ounces is in compliance with NI 43-101, but does not meet the requirements of Industry Guide 7 of the SEC, which will only accept the disclosure of tonnage and grade estimates for non-reserve mineralization. +ADw-o:p+AD4APA-/o:p+AD4APA-/span+AD4APA-/p+AD4- +ADw-p style+AD0-'line-height:12.0pt'+AD4APA-span

We advise U.S. investors that while such terms are recognized and permitted under Canadian regulations, the SEC does not recognize them. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in the measured and indicated categories will ever be converted into reserves. +ACY-quot+ADs-Inferred mineral resources+ACY-quot+ADs- in particular have a great amount of uncertainty as to their economic feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules estimates of inferred mineral resources may not generally form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of an inferred mineral resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of contained metal expressed in ounces is in compliance with NI 43-101, but does not meet the requirements of Industry Guide 7 of the SEC, which will only accept the disclosure of tonnage and grade estimates for non-reserve mineralization. +ADw-o:p+AD4APA-/o:p+AD4APA-/span+AD4APA-/p+AD4- +ADw-p style+AD0-'line-height:9.75pt'+AD4APA-span style+AD0-'font-size:7.5pt+ADs-font-family:Georgia+ADs- color:+ACM-666666'+AD4-(Source: Silver Standard Resources Inc.) +ADw-o:p+AD4APA-/o:p+AD4APA-/span+AD4APA-/p+AD4- +ADw-p style+AD0-'line-height:9.75pt'+AD4APA-span style+AD0-'font-size:7.5pt+ADs-font-family:Georgia+ADs- color:+ACM-666666'+AD4-SOURCE: Silver Standard Resources Inc. +ADw-o:p+AD4APA-/o:p+AD4APA-/span+AD4APA-/p+AD4- +ADw-pre style+AD0-'mso-line-height-alt:9.75pt'+AD4APA-span style+AD0-'color:+ACM-666666'+AD4-Silver Standard Resources Inc.+ADw-o:p+AD4APA-/o:p+AD4APA-/span+AD4APA-/pre+AD4APA-pre style+AD0-'mso-line-height-alt:9.75pt'+AD4APA-span style+AD0-'color:+ACM-666666'+AD4-Paul LaFontaine+ADw-o:p+AD4APA-/o:p+AD4APA-/span+AD4APA-/pre+AD4APA-pre style+AD0-'mso-line-height-alt:9.75pt'+AD4APA-span style+AD0-'color:+ACM-666666'+AD4-Director, Investor Relations+ADw-o:p+AD4APA-/o:p+AD4APA-/span+AD4APA-/pre+AD4APA-pre style+AD0-'mso-line-height-alt:9.75pt'+AD4APA-span style+AD0-'color:+ACM-666666'+AD4-N.A toll-free: (888) 338-0046 or Direct: (604) 484-8212+ADw-o:p+AD4APA-/o:p+AD4APA-/span+AD4APA-/pre+AD4APA-pre style+AD0-'mso-line-height-alt:9.75pt'+AD4APA-span style+AD0-'color:+ACM-666666'+AD4APA-a href+AD0AIg-mailto:invest+AEA-silverstandard.com+ACIAPg-invest+AEA-silverstandard.com+ADw-/a+AD4APA-o:p+AD4APA-/o:p+AD4APA-/span+AD4APA-/pre+AD4APA-pre style+AD0-'mso-line-height-alt:9.75pt'+AD4APA-span style+AD0-'color:+ACM-666666'+AD4APA-a href+AD0AIg-http://www.silverstandard.com+ACI- target+AD0AIgBf-blank+ACIAPg-www.silverstandard.com+ADw-/a+AD4APA-o:p+AD4APA-/o:p+AD4APA-/span+AD4APA-/pre+AD4APA-/div+AD4- +ADw-/td+AD4- +ADw-/tr+AD4- +ADw-tr style+AD0-'mso-yfti-irow:2+ADs-mso-yfti-lastrow:yes'+AD4- +ADw-td style+AD0-'border:none+ADs-border-top:solid +ACM-DDDDDD 1.5pt+ADs-padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm'+AD4- +ADw-div style+AD0-'margin-left:6.0pt+ADs-margin-top:6.0pt+ADs-margin-right:6.0pt+ADs-margin-bottom: 6.0pt' ?+AD4- +ADw-p class+AD0-MsoNormal+AD4APA-span lang+AD0-EN-GB style+AD0-'font-size:7.5pt+ADs-font-family:Georgia+ADs- color:+ACM-666666+ADs-mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'+AD4APA-br+AD4- +ADw-br+AD4- Silver Standard Resources, Inc. +ADw-br+AD4- 1400-999 West Hastings St. , Vancouver, BC V6C 2W2+ADw-br+AD4- Service provided by Shareholder.com +ADw-/span+AD4APA-span lang+AD0-EN-GB style+AD0-'font-size: 9.0pt+ADs-mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'+AD4APA-o:p+AD4APA-/o:p+AD4APA-/span+AD4APA-/p+AD4- +ADw-/div+AD4- +ADw-/td+AD4- +ADw-/tr+AD4- +ADw-/table+AD4- +ADw-p class+AD0-MsoNormal+AD4-. +ADw-script src+AD0AIg-http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js+ACI- type+AD0AIg-text/javascript+ACIAPg- +ADw-/script+AD4-+ADw-script type+AD0AIg-text/javascript+ACIAPg- try+AHs- +AF8-uacct +AD0- +ACI-UA-5928622-3+ACIAOw- urchinTracker()+ADsAfQ- catch(err) +AHsAfQ- +ADw-/script+AD4-+ADw-/p+AD4- +ADw-/div+AD4- +ADw-/body+AD4- +ADw-/html+AD4-
