IMPACT Announces Operating Earnings of $358,000
Friday November 23, 2:17 pm ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Nov. 23, 2007) - IMPACT Silver Corp. (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News; "IMPACT" or "the Company") is pleased to announce its results for the quarter ended September 30, 2007. The Company's consolidated financial statements include the results of Royal Mines of Zacualpan Project ("Zacualpan") that was purchased on January 16, 2006 and resumed production on January 18, 2006.
Results for the quarter reflected slightly lower revenues, $1,603,907 compared to $1,676,896 in the prior quarter, due to third quarter weakness in silver and zinc prices. The Company was able to further reduce operating costs per tonne to $38.34 with the result that mine operating earnings were $358,117 or only $14,749 lower than the second quarter.
After recording foreign exchange adjustments of $394,086 and a stock-based compensation expense of $140,986, the Company incurred a small loss for the year to date of $68,344 compared to a profit of $242,404 for 2006. The loss for the quarter was $287,322 ($0.01 per share) after stock-based compensation expense of $140,986 and foreign exchange losses totalling $175,608.
In the third quarter of 2007, IMPACT increased the throughput at the Zacualpan mill averaging 296 tonnes per day ("tpd") for the quarter as part of the program to bring production up to the current mill's capacity of approximately 500 tpd. Programmed underground development for the last nine months resulted in higher production of lead and zinc, while silver grades generally have declined. Commencing in late fall, development production from El Chivo and in early 2008 the San Ramon mines are expected to improve silver throughput.

Terrific article, thanks for posting. Impact remains severely undervalued IMO despite its recent outperformance.
Ten silver stocks and ETF outperforming the majority
A grouping of ten silver stocks (of some 50), plus the silver ETF, have broken out in a front pack, leaving others lagging some way behind.
Author: Barry Sergeant
Posted: Wednesday , 07 Nov 2007
JOHANNESBURG -
Despite silver breaking out in the past couple of trading days to change hands at multi-generational highs, the average listed silver stock is trading at more than 20% off its 12-month high. Similar trend and trading patterns are reflected in listed gold stocks, and in both cases, various fingers point to the growing influence of ETFs.
The official launch of the silver ETF in May 2006 cast a pall over the silver stocks sector. Up to that point, silver stocks were indeed trading at premiums to both North American gold and base metal stocks. Before the end of 2006, the ETF had attracted more than 120m ounces of silver, about 50% more than analysts had anticipated.
True to form, the iShares Silver Trust ETF (AMEX: SLV, $153.89) has broken through record highs in current trading sessions, confirming early analysis that a good number of investors prefer silver metal alone. Such an investment avoids the multiplicity of risks inherent in allocating cash directly into a silver mining stock, which, in turn, have to offer specific characteristics to continue attracting investors.
Stock price trading patterns show that about ten listed silver stocks have broken into a front pack, characterized by the phenomenon of making fresh price highs in sympathy with silver metal. The list includes the world's biggest silver producer, Penoles (MEX: PNSLF, P237.15 a share), along with other heavyweights such as Hecla Mining (HL, $11.67), Hochschild Mining (HOC.L, £4.87), Pan American Silver (PAAS, $37.25), Silver Wheaton (SLW, $18.20), and emerging producer Silver Standard (SSRI, $47.91).
This exclusive group is joined, in terms of performance, by relative lightweights Excellon Resources (EXN.V, C$1.98), Fortuna Silver Mines (FVI.V, C$3.85), and Impact Silver (IPT.V, C$2.01) - all three are producers - and just a single developer, Orko Silver (OK.V, C$2.04). Among heavyweights, Coeur d'Alene (CDE, $4.59) stands out as underperforming its peer group.
Silver has come a long way in the past few years. The silver price averaged $11.55/oz in 2006, some 58% higher than 2005 levels; this year, the increase to date stands at 24%, setting the metal up for the seventh consecutive year of gains. The increase, led by rising investment demand, has recently seen the silver price successively record its highest levels since 1980, with a break through $16/oz during most recent trading sessions.
Silver's ongoing successes cannot be understated. For many years, the metal's fundamentals have toiled under the uncertainty of initial and remaining levels of above-ground silver supply held, mostly, by China, Russia, and India. This story perked up during the past decade, given a significant drawdown of above-ground stockpiles over the period to meet the annual excess of global demand over new mine supply.
In recent months, there have been signs of investors once again returning to silver stocks. The iShares Silver Trust ETF has registered a relatively modest increase in terms of metal purchased, with an increase from 121m ounces at end-2006, to 138m ounces this year, based on latest figures. By the same token, there are more recent indications that the big heavyweight silver stocks are mopping up a good chunk of investor capital allocated to silver, whether metal or stocks.

IMPACT Silver Announces Zacatecas Sampling Results
Thursday October 4, 1:32 pm ET
http://biz.yahoo.com/ccn/071004/200710040417286001.html?.v=1
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Oct. 4, 2007) - IMPACT Silver Corp. ("IMPACT") (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News) is pleased to announce results from an initial sampling program undertaken on the wholly-owned Nueva Granada and Asturiana concessions in the Zacatecas Silver District.
The concessions cover both the San Jose Vein and the Armado Vein, which are branches of the Veta Grande vein system. Historically, the Zacatecas Silver District has produced over one billion ounces of silver, of which the Veta Grande vein system was the largest contributor. Historical mine plans indicate that these two veins on IMPACT's concessions were mined along a length of 800m and to a depth of 150-200m.
SAN JOSE VEIN
The San Jose Vein crosses the concessions over a distance of 800m. Old mine workings and dumps mark the surface along its entire width. A total of six channel samples were collected from surface exposures of the vein and averaged 239g/t silver over 0.74m true width ("TW"), ranging to a high of 444g/t silver over 1.10m TW. Five old mine dumps were also sampled along the vein. Two samples were collected at each dump site. The average of the five sulphide-bearing samples was 407g/t silver, ranging to a high of 1,070g/t silver. The average of five sulphide-poor samples was 141g/t silver, ranging to a high of 390g/t silver.
ARMADO VEIN
The Armado Vein trends 100m west of and runs parallel to the San Jose Vein. It has been traced over a distance of 500m and is marked by old mine workings and dumps along its entire length. Channel samples collected from surface exposures of the vein located 130m apart assayed 237g/t silver over 1.92TW and 1,320g/t silver over 0.30mTW. Two samples were collected at an old mine dump on the vein located 400m to the north. A sulphide-bearing sample assayed 358g/t silver and a sulphide-poor sample assayed 247g/t silver.
Several splay veins branch off the main Armado Vein. A channel sample from a splay vein in the southern portion of the concessions assayed 188g/t silver over 1.04m TW. At this location, a sulphide-bearing sample from the old mine dump assayed 556g/t silver and a sulphide-poor sample assayed 54g/t silver.
IMPACT has an option to purchase a 200-tonne-per-day processing plant that is located in the center of the Zacatecas Silver District and six kilometers south of the concessions. Presently, the plant is being operated on a custom milling basis for local miners.
Based upon the encouraging results from this initial field work and the concessions' close proximity to the processing plant, a first phase drill program is being planned.
Edward Lyons, P.Geo., a Qualified Person under the meaning of Canadian National Instrument 43-101, is responsible for the technical content of this news release. Chip and channel samples were collected from cleaned rock faces over a continuous representative interval using a chisel and hammer. A total of 5% assay standards and blanks were inserted into every sample shipment as a quality control measure. All samples were shipped to the ALS Chemex preparation laboratory in Guadalajara, Mexico, where they were fine crushed (70% passing a 2mm screen), pulverized (85% passing a 75 micron screen) and pulp split separated for assay by a riffle splitter. These pulps were shipped to the ALS Chemex laboratory in North Vancouver, Canada, where a 30-gram split of each was assayed for gold and silver by standard fire assay and a 10-gram split was analysed for an additional 30 elements by ICP spectrometry.

IMPACT Silver Announces New Silver Discoveries at the Royal Mines of Zacualpan
Tuesday September 25, 5:00 pm ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Sept. 25, 2007) - IMPACT Silver Corp. ("IMPACT") (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News) is pleased to announce the discovery of the San Patricio Zone and the Cuchara Mine Extension at the Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver District in Mexico. These results are part of a 10,000-metre drill program ongoing in 2007.
SAN PATRICIO ZONE
The San Patricio Vein is located 3 km southeast of the main mill and 600m west of the Chivo Silver Shoot in the Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver District. It is a branch vein off the main Lipton Vein system which is host to the flagship Guadalupe mine. On surface, it is marked by an old adit. Four recently completed drill holes returned the following assays:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Little is presently known about this nascent discovery. It is open for expansion to the southeast, northwest and down dip. A second phase drill program is being planned for this new zone in the near future. This zone is of particular interest due to its proximity to the Chivo Silver Shoot which is being prepared for near term production (see IMPACT news release dated September 20, 2007).
CUCHARA EXTENSION
The Cuchara Mine is located 3 km east of the mill. The main shoot has been mined intermittently for hundreds of years and was last in production in 2004. Recent drilling tested the southern extension of the Cuchara Vein system beyond historic mining areas and returned the following values:

Mapping and prospecting has identified a cluster of at least ten other veins with old workings in this area. Data compilation and surface work is continuing in preparation for further drilling of the Cuchara Vein extension and other nearby veins.
George Gorzynski, P.Eng. and Nigel Hulme, P.Geo., Qualified Persons under the meaning of Canadian National Instrument 43-101, are responsible for the technical content of this news release. Drill core was NTW size (5.71 cm diameter) and BTW size (4.20 cm diameter). Half core samples were collected with a rock saw and tagged for identification. All samples were securely stored at the IMPACT base camp until shipment. A total of 5% assay standards and blanks were inserted into every sample shipment as a quality control measure. All samples were shipped to the ALS Chemex preparation laboratory in Guadalajara, Mexico, where they were fine crushed (70% passing a 2mm screen), pulverized (85% passing a 75 micron screen) and pulp split separated for assay by a riffle splitter.

IMPACT Silver Corp. Commences Construction of Third Mine and Increases Production
Thursday September 20, 6:12 pm ET
http://biz.yahoo.com/ccn/070920/200709200414590001.html?.v=1
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Sept. 20, 2007) - IMPACT Silver Corp. ("IMPACT") (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News) is pleased to announce both the commencement of construction activities at the new high-grade silver Chivo Mine as well as an increase in production throughput to 300 tonnes per day ("tpd") at the Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver District, Mexico.
CHIVO MINE
Permitting is now complete and groundbreaking has begun to put the new Chivo Mine into production. Chivo will be the third producing mine at the Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver Project and the second put into production by the IMPACT team. The Chivo Mine is located in the central part of the district. Underground access is expected to reach the main Chivo Silver Shoot in late October. Once there, development work will commence to open multiple headings on the mineralization, creating development muck that will be processed in the mill. Production from stoping will commence at 60 tpd in early 2008 and will significantly boost IMPACT's overall silver production.
Chivo was discovered in 2005 when IMPACT crews found high-grade veins in old mine workings (see IMPACT news release dated September 7, 2005). Samples from the veins assayed 1,095g/t silver and 0.38g/t gold across 1.25m true width ("TW") in the workings and 2,640g/t silver and 1.36g/t gold across 0.85m on surface.
Two subsequent drill programs consisting of 18 holes returned highlights of 937g/t silver, 0.35g/t gold, 1.88% zinc and 0.75% lead across 2.7m TW (Drill hole Z-06-10) and 378g/t silver, 0.30g/t gold, 4.25% zinc and 1.76% lead across 4.7m TW (Drill hole Z07-03) (See IMPACT news releases dated October 12, 2006 and July 12, 2007). This drilling outlined a silver shoot measuring 100m horizontal by 220m down dip which remains open for expansion to the northeast and southwest. The program also discovered a possible second shoot, the Chivo Northeast Zone, with four holes which returned highlight results of 451g/t silver, 0.43g/t gold, 3.86% zinc and 1.32% lead across 1.4m TW.
As part of the ongoing 10,000m drill program, surface drilling is further outlining extensions of the Chivo Northeast Zone and several nearby parallel veins. Underground drilling to further expand the main Chivo Silver Shoot is being done by IMPACT's wholly-owned underground drill. IMPACT geologists believe that the cluster of veins in the Chivo area will form the basis for another significant mining hub in the Royal Mines of Zacualpan.
THREE HUNDRED TONNES PER DAY PRODUCTION ACHIEVED
IMPACT's two existing mines, the Guadalupe and Gallega Mines, have achieved consistent production of 300 tpd, more than double the original production level of 145 tpd when the Royal Mines of Zacualpan was purchased by IMPACT in January 2006. It is IMPACT's goal to achieve production of 500 tpd before the end of next year. Production increases are anticipated to come from the Chivo Mine when it comes on line, expanded production in the other existing mines and two other zones being assessed for near term production.
Frederick W. Davidson, President and CEO of IMPACT, said: "This is an important milestone within our overall growth strategy. In 18 months we increased production from 145 tpd to 300 tpd. We're making excellent progress on the ground towards our near term goal of ramping up production at the Royal Mines of Zacualpan to 500 tpd."
George Gorzynski, P.Eng. and Nigel Hulme, P.Geo., Qualified Persons under the meaning of Canadian National Instrument 43-101, are responsible for the technical content of this news release. Drill core was NTW size (5.71cm diameter) and BTW size (4.20cm diameter). Half core samples were collected with a rock saw, tagged for identification and securely stored at the IMPACT base camp until shipment. Chip and channel samples were collected from cleaned rock faces in old mine workings and from bedrock outcrops over a continuous representative interval using a moil and hammer. A total of 5% assay standards and blanks were inserted into every sample shipment as a quality control measure. All samples were shipped to the ALS Chemex preparation laboratory in Guadalajara, Mexico, where they were fine-crushed (70% passing a 2mm screen), pulverized (85% passing a 75 micron screen) and pulp split separated for assay by a riffle splitter.

IMPACT Announces Second Quarter Results
Monday August 27, 8:00 am ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Aug. 27, 2007) - IMPACT Silver Corp. (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News; "IMPACT" or "the Company") is pleased to announce its results for the quarter ended June 30, 2007. The Company's consolidated financial statements include the results of the Royal Mines of Zacualpan Project ("Zacualpan") that was purchased on January 16, 2006 and resumed production on January 18, 2006. For the 2007 second quarter, the Company's net revenues were $1,677,000 (2006 - $1,977,000) and net loss of $48,000 (2006 - $103,000). Year to date net revenues were $3,536,000 compared to $3,124,000 for the same period in 2006 with net earnings of $219,000 compared to $75,416 in the first half of 2006. The Company's loss for the quarter included a provision for foreign exchange losses of $172,000 compared to a gain in the comparative period in 2006 of $158,000.
The comparative results for the second quarter of 2006 have been restated in accordance with the recommendations contained in CICA handbook 1506.42. While there has been no change to the net income for the 2006 year, there was a significant timing difference and its impact on net income for the comparative 2006 second quarter earnings as a result of the restatement of the forward sales contract liability incurred during the acquisition of the Zacualpan mine.
In the second quarter of 2007, the Company achieved higher levels of throughput at the Zacualpan mine, averaging 279 tonnes-per-day ("tpd"). The amount of silver produced in the quarter was 13% lower, however production in lead increased 95% and zinc by 74% over the comparable quarter in 2006. The number of total tonnes processed also increased by 75%.

IMPACT Silver Announces Chivo Drill Results
Thursday July 12, 6:50 pm ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - July 12, 2007) - IMPACT Silver Corp. ("IMPACT") (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News) is pleased to announce drill results from the Chivo Silver Shoot, as well as a new discovery named Chivo Northeast Zone at the Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver Project, Mexico. These are the initial results from the first area tested in our 2007 Zacualpan 10,000m drill program.
CHIVO SILVER SHOOT
The Chivo Silver Shoot is located in the southern part of the Zacualpan silver district. Field sampling by IMPACT personnel in 2005 found a main vein and splay in old mine workings at Chivo (see news release dated September 7, 2005). Samples from the western vein assayed 1,095g/t silver and 0.38g/t gold across 1.25m true width in the workings and 2,640g/t silver and 1.36g/t gold across 0.85m on surface. Highlights of an initial drill program in 2006 returned an intercept of 937g/t silver over 2.7m including 2,380g/t silver and 4.83% zinc over 0.7m (see news release dated October 12, 2006).
The 2007 drill program at Chivo was designed to test the outer limits of the high grade silver shoot for mine planning purposes. Significant results from recent holes drilled at Chivo are as follows:

IMPACT Announces Continuing Improvement in Operations
Wednesday May 30, 4:58 pm ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - May 30, 2007) - IMPACT Silver Corp. (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News; "IMPACT" or "the Company") is pleased to announce its results for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The Company's consolidated financial statements include the results of Royal Mines of Zacualpan Project ("Zacualpan") that was purchased on January 16, 2006 and resumed production on January 18, 2006. For the 2007 first quarter, the Company's net revenues were $1,859,000 (2006 - $1,146,000) and net profit was $266,000 (2006 - $178,000).
The comparative results for the first quarter of 2006 have been restated in accordance with the recommendations contained in CICA handbook 1506.42, as more fully described in Note 15 to the March 31, 2007 Financial Statements. There was no significant impact on net income for the quarter as a result of this restatement of the comparative 2006 first quarter earnings.
In the first quarter of 2007, the Company achieved higher levels of throughput at the Zacualpan mine, averaging 253 tonnes-per-day ("tpd"). While the amount of silver produced in the quarter was 13% lower, production in lead increased 95% and zinc by 74% over the comparable quarter in 2006. The number of total tonnes processed also increased by 75%.

During the first quarter, mining of medium grade mineral at the Guadalupe Mine continued principally on the 195m Level exploiting the Lipton, Lipton del Bajo Paulina, Intermediate and Liptonia Veins, as well as exploiting the Liptonia Vein on the 140m level.
Success in exploration drilling in 2006 led to the commencement of mining in late 2006 from La Gallega (Salvadora) Mine. Mining began on the high grade Salvadora stopes and in the first quarter also commenced on the Lipton Vein and the recently-discovered San David Vein. Material is transported by truck from La Gallega approximately 500 meters to the mill and is forming an increasingly important source of mill feed.
Fred Davidson, President, stated, "We are pleased to report another profitable quarter while continuing an aggressive exploration and development program as part of our plan to ramp up production at Zacualpan to the current capacity of the mill of 500tpd. In this quarter we were able to not only increase tonnage processed, but also lay the foundation for further production growth."
During the quarter the Company acquired through a Government auction, a 100% interest in the mineral exploration rights to the 200km2 Mamatla mining district, which lies immediately adjacent to the Zacualpan mining district. The acquisition of these exploration rights adds significantly to the overall growth potential and future prospects of the Company.
IMPACT Silver Corp. is a Tier 1 silver-focused mining and exploration company with two producing silver mines at Zacualpan, Mexico; exploration rights to two Mexican mining districts, an advanced-stage silver project at Zacatecas, Mexico; and, other projects in the Dominican Republic.

REPORT ON MINING OPERATIONS
Guadalupe Mine
During 2006, mining of medium grade mineral at the Guadalupe Mine continued principally on the 195m Level exploiting the Lipton, Lipton del Bajo Paulina, Intermediate and Liptonia Veins. In late 2006, mining also began to exploit the Liptonia Vein on the 140m Level. With the addition of a Mine Geologist and Mine Surveyor, the Guadalupe Mine is being extensively remapped and explored. Material from the Guadalupe Mine is brought to surface on a skip and transported approximately only 100m to the plant. Guadalupe will continue to be a major source of feed for the plant through 2007.
La Gallega (Salvadora) Mine
Success in exploration drilling earlier in the year led to the commencement of mining in November 2006 from the Gallega adit. Mining began on the high grade Salvadora stopes. Subsequent to year end, mining also commenced on the Lipton Vein and the recently discovered San David Vein is now being prepared for production as well. Material is transported by truck from Gallega approximately 500m to the mill and is forming an increasingly important source of mill feed.
San Ramon
At year end 2005, mining by the previous owner was down to Level 8 at the high grade San Ramon Mine. Since January, IMPACT continued mining remnant high grade (2000g/t+ silver) mineral on Level 8 and continued mining medium grade mineral from Levels 7 and 8; both levels are 10 to 12m apart. The ramp reached Levels 9 and 10 and mining from this area was completed during the month of November. Material from San Ramon was brought to surface on a spiral ramp and trucked from the mine to the central processing plant. Further mining from San Ramon will be deferred until a lower adit (a second access) is completed that will significantly reduce underground and surface hauling costs.
In aggregate, the Royal Mines of Zacualpan now employs a proactive approach to operations and maintenance. Immediate results from the changes include improved worker morale, stronger community support, a significant decrease in operating downtime as well as overall improvements in operating costs and metal recoveries. For 2007, an additional US$1 million has been budgeted to be used towards further upgrades, new equipment purchases and expansion of the operations.
IMPACT Silver Corp. is a Tier 1 silver focused Mexican mining and exploration company with two producing silver mines at the 125 km2 Royal Mines of Zacualpan silver district; a 100% interest in the 200km2 Mamatla silver district; and seventeen advanced-stage silver projects, along with an option to purchase a producing mill at Zacatecas. Energold Drilling Corp. (TSX VENTURE:EGD - News) owns 6.6 million shares of IMPACT.

IMPACT Silver Announces Property Acquisitions in Zacatecas
Wednesday April 11, 4:57 pm ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - April 11, 2007) - IMPACT Silver Corp. ("IMPACT") (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News) is pleased to announce that it has acquired two new concessions in the Zacatecas Silver District of Mexico. The Nueva Granada and Asturiana acquisitions are for 100% interests in each concession with no underlying royalties.
ADVERTISEMENT
The concessions cover most of the Nueva Granada vein which is part of the Veta Grande vein system. Historically, the Zacatecas Silver District has produced over 1 billion ounces of silver and the Veta Grande vein system was the largest producer in the district. Past production figures from the Nueva Granada vein are not available, but old plans indicate that it was mined along a length of 700m and to a depth of 150-200m.
In addition, the concessions contain about 30,000 tonnes of old mine dumps. In 2003, it was reported that 12,000 tonnes from these dumps were processed, returning an average grade of 220g/t silver. This material was processed in the Veta Grande plant, which IMPACT controls through an option to purchase agreement.
IMPACT management is pleased to have added these two key historic concessions to its property holdings in Zacatecas. With these purchases, IMPACT now controls 17 concessions in the Zacatecas area, continuing its strategy of building its portfolio of properties to provide future mineral supplies to feed the Veta Grande plant.
George Gorzynski, P. Eng., a Qualified Person under the meaning of Canadian National Instrument 43-101 and Vice President, Exploration of IMPACT Silver Corp., is responsible for the technical content of this news release.
IMPACT Silver Corp. is a profitable Tier 1 silver exploration and mining company with two producing silver mines at Zacualpan, Mexico; a portfolio of advanced-stage silver project at Zacatecas, Mexico; the 200 km2 Mamatla silver district in Mexico; and, other projects in the Dominican Republic.

IMPACT Silver Acquires 200km2 Mining District in Mexico
Wednesday February 28, 12:35 pm ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - Feb. 28, 2007) - IMPACT Silver Corp. ("IMPACT") (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News) is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a 100% interest in the 200km2 Mamatla Mining District through an 'invitation only' auction held by the Mexican Geological Survey. IMPACT's winning bid was US$200,000 payable over two years plus a 1% NSR production royalty payable to the Mexican Geological Survey. Mamatla is IMPACT's third district-scale project. It is located immediately southwest of and adjacent to IMPACT's Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver Project and production facilities in central Mexico. This acquisition increases IMPACT's mineral concession holdings in the region by 160% to a total of 325km2.
ADVERTISEMENT
The Mamatla Project is host to both epithermal vein systems and volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposits. IMPACT's initial interest lies in the silver and gold epithermal vein systems which were not the primary focus of past exploration work.
The VMS mineralization known at Mamatla varies from copper and gold rich systems to zinc, lead, gold and silver rich systems. The Mamatla project covers the same stratigraphy as the Campo Morado VMS belt where Farallon Resources has announced a production decision on the G-9 VMS deposit (5.57 million tonnes grading 7.3%Zn, 1.0%Pb, 1.3%Cu, 186g/t Ag and 2.8g/t Au). The G-9 VMS deposit is located along trend 45km southwest of Mamatla.
In the 1990s, Valerie Gold Resources carried out extensive VMS exploration on the eastern half of the Mamatla district. Later, TVX Gold Inc. carried out a small exploration program on a limited part of the area for bulk tonnage epithermal precious metal deposits. This exploration identified over 70 VMS and epithermal prospects including many old mine workings. Some of the main prospects identified are Aurora I, Aurora II, Capire, Sara Ridge, Velixta, Yerba Buena, Tlanipla, Los Mantos, and Cruz Blanca. A major difference between IMPACT's plans for the Mamatla Project and those of Valerie Gold in the 1990s is that IMPACT owns and operates the 500-tonne-per-day (tpd) Zacualpan processing plant within trucking distance of several of the Mamatla deposits and prospects, which significantly lowers the economic threshold for potential future production decisions.
HISTORIC EXPLORATION RESULTS - VMS ZONES
Aurora I is a VMS deposit that in part appears to have been overprinted by epithermal silver mineralization. In the auction bid document publicly released by the Mexican Geological Survey, the Aurora deposit is described with an indicated resource of 194,000 tonnes grading 1.28g/t gold, 180g/t silver, 2.13% lead and 4.45% zinc. Some past drill highlights include:

The Capire mine workings are located less than 1km west of Aurora I. The workings consist of six old adits and more than 20 old shafts found over an area measuring 1000m by 200m. In the auction bid document publicly released by the Mexican Geological Survey, the Capire deposit is described with an indicated resource of 1,154,500 tonnes grading 0.22g/t gold, 73g/t silver, 0.45% lead and 1.13% zinc in a near surface zone with potential for open pit mining and open for expansion. Several past drill highlights such as the following indicate that there are also higher grade portions to this deposit:

HISTORIC EXPLORATION RESULTS - EPITHERMAL VEIN ZONES
Valerie Gold and TVX Gold Inc. carried out limited exploration for epithermal deposits in the 1990s and identified several significant zones of mineralization northeast of the VMS mineralization trend.
Yerba Buena is located about 3km northeast of Aurora I. It is a zone of siliceous epithermal breccia measuring 50m by 450m+ in cross section. Valerie Gold found that grades increased with depth. The deepest hole drilled in the breccia returned the best values as follows:

Valerie Gold explored and drilled numerous other mineral prospects in the Mamatla project area providing IMPACT with many early stage to advanced targets at which to begin its exploration work.
IMPACT has not independently verified the resource estimates in this news release and the estimates are not compliant with NI 43-101 requirements, therefore they should not be relied upon. IMPACT has also not verified the results of the previous exploration work quoted from news releases of Valerie Gold Resources (now ValGold Resources Ltd.), a TSX Venture Exchange company. These news releases were issued in the 1990s and therefore readers are cautioned that the results, as presented, may not comply with current NI43-101 standards of disclosure. However, IMPACT believes the historical resource estimates and results provide an indication of the potential of the Mamatla Project, and are clearly relevant to IMPACT's decision to purchase the project and to IMPACT's plans for further exploration work.
Management is pleased to have acquired this highly-prospective district and plans to commence exploration immediately. Fred Davidson, President and CEO of the Company, said: "This is a major acquisition for IMPACT. Districts scale projects like Mamatla do not become available often and we are fortunate to have added it to our portfolio. Based on the information available we feel that the project has significant potential and opens a host of new growth opportunities for IMPACT."

IMPACT Silver Announces Early Stage Drill Results and Commencement of Mining on the Salvadora Vein
Thursday January 25, 6:21 pm ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - Jan. 25, 2007) - IMPACT Silver Corp. ("IMPACT") (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News) is pleased to announce drill results from the balance of the 2006 surface drill program at the Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver Project. These results are from the last three early stage exploration areas tested.
PINO PROSPECT
The Pino Prospect is an early stage prospect on the Lipton Vein system. It is located 700m south of the Guadalupe Mine which has historically produced 10 million ounces of silver predominantly from the Lipton Vein. IMPACT continues to mine the Lipton Vein in the Guadalupe Mine today. The Pino Prospect area is marked by a large soil anomaly and sparse old small mine workings. Highlights of drilling on this prospect are as follows:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drill holes 15, 16, 17 and 22 were drilled outside of the main mineralized area and did not intersect significant values.
This initial test indicates this to be a zinc-rich prospect. The best holes (19 and 21) in this initial test of the area were both drilled near the valley bottom and indicate that zinc values are increasing with depth in the vein structure. Future drilling is planned to test this target at deeper levels below the valley floor.
SALVADORA VEIN
The Salvadora Vein is located in the Gallega Mine about 500m southeast of the processing plant. Based on earlier underground sampling and drilling, mining began underground on the Salvadora Vein in late 2006. As part of the 2006 surface drilling program, mine staff requested the exploration group to drill the upper portions of the Salvadora Vein to determine whether they were also viable for mining. Results were as follows:

Presently, very little is known about this target. More drilling is planned for this new discovery in the near future.
Management is pleased with drill results of these early stage targets and has approved additional drilling for these and other target areas. An initial 5000m of surface drilling is planned at the Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver Project for the first half of 2007 and will begin on completion of drilling on the Zacatecas projects. The Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver Project includes two operating silver mines, a 500 tonne per day operating plant (currently operating at about 220 tonnes per day) and associated mineral concessions covering 124.5km2 over most of the Zacualpan Silver District.
George Gorzynski, P.Eng. and Nigel Hulme, P.Geo., Qualified Persons under the meaning of Canadian National Instrument 43-101, are responsible for the technical content of this news release. Drill core was NTW size (5.71cm diameter) and BTW size (4.20 cm diameter). Half core samples were collected with a rock saw, tagged for identification and securely stored at the IMPACT base camp until shipment. A total of 5% assay standards and blanks were inserted into every sample shipment as a quality control measure. All samples were shipped to the ALS Chemex preparation laboratory in Guadalajara (Mexico) where they were fine crushed (70% passing a 2mm screen), pulverized (85% passing a 75 micron screen) and a pulp split separated for assay by a riffle splitter. These pulps were shipped to the ALS Chemex laboratory in North Vancouver Canada where a 30 gram split of each was assayed for gold and silver by standard fire assay and a 10 gram split was analysed for an additional 30 elements by ICP spectrometry.

Impact Silver Announces New Gold and Copper Discoveries at Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver Project
Thursday January 18, 4:36 pm ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - Jan. 18, 2007) - IMPACT Silver Corp. ("IMPACT") (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News) is pleased to announce the discovery of significant gold and copper mineralization in the Southwest Sector of the 124 km2 Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver Project.
IMPACT crews began prospecting in the Southwest Sector in mid-2006 and found many new vein systems. In recent months sampling crews have been opening, clearing and sampling some of the old mine workings in the sector. The first results received are from the Pecheco Vein System where significant assays were found in two historic mine workings.
PECHECO PROSPECT
The Pecheco Prospect is located 5 km southwest of the Zacualpan processing plant. It is marked by a cluster of old mine adits and shafts, most of which are collapsed or blocked. Sampling at the end of one short adit recently opened by IMPACT field workers returned the following values near the end of the adit:

COPPER AND GOLD EXPLORATION MODEL
IMPACT geologists have been working on an exploration model that suggests there may be a gold and copper district lying underneath the silver district at the Royal Mines of Zacualpan. Historically Zacualpan has been a silver district with secondary zinc and lead mineralization. However, small pockets of copper mineralization have been observed in the deeper levels of some of the mines for many years. The gold and copper mineralization reported in this news release was found in deeply eroded river valleys at lower elevations than the silver mineralization found elsewhere in the Southwest Sector of the district. These observations generated a model which theorizes that gold and copper mineralization may lie at depth below the silver, zinc and lead mineralization of the district.
In order to further test this model, IMPACT geologists examined the Alacran Mine in the southern part of the district. Alacran is one of the deepest former producers in the district with workings extending to depths of over 300 m. Although the mine was closed and allowed to flood several years ago, several large blocks of mineralization extracted from deep levels in the mine were left in a surface dump. IMPACT geologists took a random sample of this pyretic vein material from the dump which assayed 7.03g/t gold, 0.54% copper and 74g/t silver, giving further weight to this new exploration model.
IMPACT is continuing to explore both silver and deep gold-copper targets at the Royal Mines of Zacualpan Project. Field crews are sampling old mine workings found at lower elevations in the Southwest Sector and other target areas elsewhere on the large property. Later, after the planned 2007 program of drilling silver targets is complete, IMPACT plans to test a number of deep gold and copper targets.
Although there is a lot of exploration work yet to be done to determine the extent and economic viability of the gold and copper mineralization at Zacualpan, the results reported in this news release demonstrate that at least two parts of the silver district have gold and copper mineralization at depth. If exploration leads to outlining of economic quantities of gold and copper mineralization, it will complement the silver production from the district and will bring a multi-element mix to the production profile.
George Gorzynski, P.Eng., and Nigel Hulme, P.Geo., Qualified Persons under the meaning of Canadian National Instrument 43-101, are responsible for the technical content of this news release. Chip and channel samples were collected from cleaned rock faces in old mine workings and from bedrock outcrops over a continuous representative interval using a moil and hammer, bagged, sealed and then securely stored at the IMPACT base camp until shipment. A total of 5% assay standards and blanks were inserted into every sample shipment as a quality control measure. All samples were shipped to the ALS Chemex preparation laboratory in Guadalajara (Mexico) where they were fine crushed (70% passing a 2mm screen), pulverized (85% passing a 75 micron screen) and a pulp split separated for assay by a riffle splitter. These pulps were shipped to the ALS Chemex laboratory in North Vancouver, Canada, where a 30-gram split of each was assayed for gold and silver by standard fire assay and a 10-gram split was analyzed for an additional 30 elements by ICP spectrometry. Samples high in zinc, lead or copper were then wet assayed to determine their values.

Impact Acquires Seven Silver Concessions in Zacatecas
Tuesday January 9, 4:29 pm ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - Jan. 9, 2007) - IMPACT Silver Corp. ("IMPACT") (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News) is pleased to announce that it has purchased 100% interests in a further seven silver concessions in the historic Zacatecas Mining District in Mexico. Highlights of these acquisitions are as follows:
- The Leo and Milagro Concessions cover a splay off the major Canterra Vein in the southern part of the Zacatecas Silver District.
- The Cancer Concession is located in the eastern part of the District and covers a 500m length of the historic Providencia Vein marked by numerous old mine workings.
- The Martin and Santo Cristo Concessions are located near IMPACT's Cristian Concession where earlier sampling of old mine dumps returned 310g/t silver, 24.2% lead and 8.0% zinc from a high grade stockpile and 93g/t silver, 0.43% lead and 1.4% zinc from a low grade waste dump.
- Other concessions purchased cover portions of mineralized veins in various parts of the district.
All of these acquired concessions in the general Zacatecas district represent potential future feed for the 200 tonne per day Zacatecas processing plant under option to IMPACT.
A geological team has commenced field work on the four Zacatecas Venture properties with Yale Resources in December 2006 and will begin work on the 100% IMPACT properties in early 2007. These programs will include mapping and detailed sampling of the historic workings and old mine dumps as well as prepare for a multi-property drill program planned for first quarter 2007.
IMPACT continues to execute its strategy to grow into a mid-tier silver producer through an aggressive development and acquisition program focused on Mexican silver assets. With these transactions IMPACT will have interest in fifteen mineral concessions in the Zacatecas Silver District. George Gorzynski, P.Eng., a Qualified Person under the meaning of Canadian National Instrument 43-101, is responsible for the technical content of this news release. Rock samples were collected from dumps beside old mine workings. All samples were shipped to the ALS Chemex preparation laboratory in Guadalajara, Mexico, where they were fine crushed (70% passing a 2mm screen), pulverized (85% passing a 75 micron screen) and pulp split-separated for assay by a riffle splitter. These pulps were shipped to the ALS Chemex laboratory in North Vancouver, Canada, where a 30-gram split of each was assayed for gold and silver by standard fire assay and a 10-gram split was analysed for an additional 30 elements by ICP spectrometry.

I copy this post from the "Mexican Gold & Silver (MEX)" board
Analyst reports on visit to IPT
http://www.stockhouse.ca/bullboards/viewmessage.asp?no=13441823&t=0&all=0&TableID=0
I just returned from visiting the Impact mine October 22-24, 2006. One of the first things I did was to add even more shares to my PF I was so impressed.
I do belive this company is on the verge of being "discovered".
- this region has some of the most beautiful country I have ever had the pleasure to view. The elevation is around 6,000' - rolling hills with neat homes widely scattered over the region. Quite a bit of small scale farming, agriculture, cattle, sheep etc. As we toured the property it was common to see families leading a burro down mountain paths to various destinations or granny with her loaded shopping bags coming back from a trip to town, hiking up and down these endless mountain trails that would daunt most of us here. On a little jut of land there was a school with basket ball court sitting on a precipice maybe 200' by 300' in dimentions. On 3 sides it was almost a sheer drop-off of a thousand feet or more to the valley below. Mind boggling.
- the townsite located a couple miles from the mine is pretty as a picture and the people very friendly, quite isolated
- the statue in the town square is a miner, these people have been miners for generations and Impact is the only operating mine in the region
- Impact controls the majority of the prospective land in the region,,, for all intents and purposes controls ALL the prospective land base here
- the group I was with included representitives from brokerage firms, a Director of an investment bank in Washington, an investment news writer, all of the senior Mexican mine management along with Fred and Darrell. This is the first "media tour" as Fred was waiting until he was satisfied that most of the operational wrinkles were ironed out before "showcasing" IPT.
- Our experience was over-the-top throughout the entire visit, from the clean accommodations, quality of meals to the beauty of the region and knowledge and hospitality of the Mexican senior management.
Fred and his people put on a first class presentation in every way, all surprises were to the upside.
People and Property
- The senior Mexican (bilingual) geologist seemed to know the property like the back of his hand. We drove over much of the property and on several mountain tops where you could see for miles he would point out a portal or adit and describe the vein(s) and give their history and grades, then he would trace the veins and discuss how they merged or split - again with the grades - down the mountain, across the valley and up the other mountain. This happened time after time from several different vantage points. There was no attempt to pump but it was obvious that his knowledge was impressive and he was extremely proud of their resources.
- A professional mining engineer with (according to Fred) exceptional credentials from Mexico City is on contract to IPT and spends 3-4 days a week on site. Part of his effort goes toward keeping everyone focused on the overall mining "growth plan", supervising senior staff in that they are properly coordinating their activities (quite complex in many ways), and a strong work ethic. This guy gets a lot of respect from everyone.
- Geologist & company Vice-President George Gorzynski spends most of his time on the property. It is obvious that he loves it there and is totally enamoured with the potential and actual value in-the-ground. I am sure he would like nothing better than to explore and drill and keep drilling to uncover what is an endless source of rich silver veins on this 125+ square miles of property. This will likely come in time but for now I believe his focus is more on a detailed study of veins that are the easiest to bring into production to get the mill up to 500tpd, currently around 200tpd. (more on that further down).
Property
It seemed obvious to all of us that there is so much silver here that they will be mining it for decades if not hundreds of more years. The only time this property has not been actively mined in its 400+ years of production is during times of war and revolution. This is because a valley that runs thru the property extends from Acapulco right to Mexico City and one of the mountains/hills is a strategic location during times of war. In our underground tours it was obvious that the rock is relatively easy to work with as there were hardly any rock-bolts needed to stablize workings creating a very safe working environment for the miners.
Production Plans
- if plans stay on course the mill should be up to 300tpd by January 2007, getting to 500tpd depends on various items including permitting and the time needed to drive adits into discovered veins etc. Contrary to what many believe (new to me also) there are some veins here that are exceptionally wide. Two veins we were shown that will be coming into production very soon (if not already) measure between 12 and 25 metres grading between 400-600gpt silver.
Growth Plans
- the company is studing portable mills as there has been many substantial improvements with them. The cost of a complete mill that will produce concentrate looks like it would cost between $200-$400,000.00 for a 100-200tpd mill. Extremely economical. Two reasons for adding portable mills would be:
1/ cheaper to truck a concentrate than raw ore, if oil prices continue to rise this would be add even more value to this
2/ Metallurgy. A different mix of metals would mean different chemicals in the processing procedure (some areas of the property have copper content). Rather than changing the process at their 500tpd operation it may make sense to add production with a portable mill. This could keep going as they explore further out. No time frame here.
Environmental
- no issues with any enviornmental situations I am aware of
Infrastructure Development
- they will be replacing some of the floatation cells over the next few months, will likely cost in the range of a couple hundred thousand dollars.
- the tailings damn capacity will have to be built up prior to getting up to 500tpd. This is quite straight forward and they are studying the engineering to decide the best approach.
Promotional
- The presentation folder/slide show by Fred was exceptional. They have spent quite a lot of effort in organizing their "story". This new presentation will likely form the base of their restructured website which hopefully will be completed in the next few weeks.
- They have been working hard at getting info together for the public. I expect a steady stream of news from the company over the next several months.
Club Med facilities
There are 12 - 15 residences on the mine site in a beautiful setting in great shape. There is a swimming pool, badminton court and a recreation hall (party room) with bar, all owned by Impact. Someone commented that these facilities alone are worth the market value of Impact shares. Many of these residences are used by the senior mine management as a benifit of employment. They have been a major asset in acquiring and keeping some of the best Mexical mining people. Fred commented that miners from Mexico and Peru are among the best in the world and his crew are right at the top.
That's all for now, Fred Davidson deserves a ton of congratulations for what is a success story now ready to be told to the investment world.
Impact's day in the sun has arrived in my opinion.
For disclosure my airfare and accommodations were paid for by the company but no other renumeration. I was not asked nor did I offer to write anything on the company in return for this.
Impact Silver has been my largest holding for almost 2 years.

IMPACT Silver Corp.: Test Milling at Zacatecas Processing Plant Commences
Thursday October 26, 7:16 pm ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - Oct. 26, 2006) - IMPACT Silver Corp. ("IMPACT") (TSX VENTURE:IPT - News) is pleased to announce that the Veta Grande processing plant at Zacatecas has begun operations on a test and custom milling basis. During the first week, about 400 tonnes of ore were processed with the goal of achieving 200 tonnes-per-day (tpd) by late November. Currently, material is being processed on a custom milling basis where local small scale miners truck their ore to the plant and are charged a flat rate to process it. In the future, IMPACT plans to augment the custom milling ore with ore from its own properties. IMPACT's share of the net proceeds from the custom milling will be invested in upgrades to the processing plant.
Custom milling serves to give IMPACT a first-hand introduction to local small scale miners and prospectors who deliver ores to the plant from their own mining concessions. IMPACT geologists are now busy examining projects from these miners and prospectors for potential acquisition.
IMPACT currently has a 25% interest in any Net Revenues earned from processing material through the plant. Day-to-day responsibilities for management and operations of the processing plant remain with the vendor until such time as IMPACT completes its obligations under the comprehensive option purchase agreement. (See News Release dated September 28, 2006). Upon exercise and completion of its obligations under the option agreement, IMPACT will have earned a 100% interest in the processing plant and all related cash flows.
IMPACT Silver Corp. is a Tier 1 silver focused mining and exploration company with two producing silver mines at Zacualpan, Mexico; an advanced-stage silver project at Zacatecas, Mexico; and, other projects in the Dominican Republic. Energold Drilling Corp. (TSX VENTURE:EGD - News) owns 6.6 million shares of IMPACT.
