Sterling silver chopsticks. Minco Silver reported the assay results of the first 11 holes of the Phase III drilling program on its
Fuwan Silver Project, located in southwest China. The Phase III drilling program consisted of 30 holes, for a total of 7,009
metres, drilled on the western side of the deposit from section 35 from the West to section 12 to the East. The assays results for
the first 11 holes are highlighted by hole FW0025 (329.81 g/t silver over 15.35m), hole FW0040 (581.52 g/t silver over 2.90m),
hole FW0041 (458.12 g/t silver over 12.15m), hole FW0053 (1,223.75 g/t silver over 3.96m), and hole FW0025 (388.64 g/t
silver over 7.54m). The program was designed to increase the drill density to 80x80 metres with numerous assay grades for the
first 11 holes exceed the previous deposit average estimated by P&E Mining Consultants in November of 2005 (revised and
updated in November of 2006). By the way, during dynastic times it was thought that silver chopsticks would turn black if they
came into contact with poisoned food. It is now known that silver has no reaction to arsenic or cyanide, but if rotten eggs, onion,
or garlic are used, the hydrogen sulphide they release might cause these chopsticks to change colour.
