Cerro Rico, San Bartolome Silver Mine, Potosi -


Ex....
The Silver Mine started production early in 2008
and has been on a steep ramp up curve -

The project advised around one month ago that daily silver
production had steadily increased up to a
level of 15,000 ounces per day,
which was expected to result in
approximately 500,000 ounces of silver production
during the month of September -

Through the end of August, San Bartolome Silver Mine -
produced approximately 390,000 ounces of silver year-to-date -
The operation expects to achieve full capacity in the fourth quarter -

For the year, est. the mine will produce 3.2 million ounces
of silver and that it will achieve its 2009 production
est. of approximately 9 million silver ounces -

Ex....
San Bartolomé Silver Mining Project -

* It will produce positive environmental impacts by cleaning
an important amount of contaminating material
from around the Cerro Rico -

With a good example,
the Project intends to support modern hi-tech new art rational mining,
following industrial security and environmental norms -

The Project will produce the following amount of jobs (approx.) in Potosí:

* 400 good quality direct jobs -

* 1,200 indirect jobs related to goods and services -

* Hundreds of jobs related to silver handcrafting and tourism
thanks to the FUNDESPO
(Sustainable Development Foundation of Potosí)

Many families in Potosi will benefit from good
and decent jobs -

* The Project will invest over $100 million in Potosí
in a period of a year and a half -

* During the Project’s life, $4 to $6 million will be
invested in goods and services each year in Potosí -

* San Bartolomé will contribute to the reactivation
of the local economy by incrementing the economic
activities of the city during the Project’s life -
Commerce, Industry, Mining, Construction,
Transportation, Tourism, and others will benefit -

* The Project will strengthen Potosí institutions,
such as AAPOS, and others -

Income -

* $17 million in Mining Complementing Taxes for Potosí -

* $60 million in national taxes -

* $12 million for COMIBOL -

* $8 million for the Mining Cooperatives -

* Est. numbers -

* The Project will eliminate an important amount of
contaminating material from the surface and surroundings
of the Cerro Rico (pallacos, desmontes, colas, and Plahipo piles) -
These contaminants generate acid water, which contains
arsenic, antimony, cadmium, lead, and others -
These affect Potosinians’ health -

* San Bartolomé will eliminate the risk of a mudslide,
from the pallaco of the Sucumayu (Devil’s) gully,
to city homes -
