To 'investors' on 'SILVER (Ag) PRODUCERS' -
Its my pleasure -

RE: the Q's -
It is surprising to see how such big corporations -
have been attracted by that project -

With such a huge financing available from people like -
Soros, Rothschild and Sumitomo Corporation,
why this company took so long from -
1993 to come into production? -

Is it that BOD was waiting for right prices of the Silver -
to start production or there was any other reason? -

These and several other such question about SIL -
will help us to understand FMNJ situation today -

Apex Silver San Cristobal Produces First Concentrates
and Achieves 12 Million Man-Hours
Without a Lost Time Accident
Tuesday August 7, 9:00 am ET
DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Apex Silver Mines Limited -
(AMEX:SIL - News) today announced the first production
of silver bearing concentrates from -
the San Cristobal Mine -
zinc, lead and silver mine in Southwestern Bolivia.

The plant reached mechanical completion in late June 2007
and began start-up commissioning in early July.
We expect the first rail shipments from the plant
later this week.

As of July 31st, more than three and a half million tonnes
of ore have been stockpiled for the concentrator.

The primary crusher and overland conveyor are operating
at design rates delivering ore to the coarse ore stockpile.

With production testing ongoing and operating with
a previously untrained workforce, the plant is operating
with the semi-autogenous mill (SAG) -
and one of two ball mills.

Processing the harder of the two ore types in
the San Cristobal ore body, we have achieved continuous
throughput of 19,000 tonnes per day, within five percent
of design capacity.

The second ball mill motor has been repaired and is being
commissioned, and we expect continuous production -
from this ball mill in early September.

The flotation circuit has been commissioned and we are
producing both silver bearing lead and zinc concentrates.

The filtration and load out system has been commissioned
and concentrate containers are being loaded for rail -
transport to the port at Mejillones, Chile.

All other systems including the well field, tailing system,
railroad, and other supporting systems have been
commissioned and are generally performing as anticipated.

The plant will continue in startup and commissioning
during August with emphasis on commissioning of
the zinc regrind circuit and fine tuning throughout
the flotation plant including improvements in
the calibration of instruments and tuning of control
loops and level controls in the plant.

In addition, we expect to complete commissioning of
the second ball mill, together with final processes
and coordination with Bolivian power providers,
in early September.

The entire project and operating team has achieved
twelve million man hours without a lost time accident.

"We salute our Bolivian project and operating team
for the rapid ramp up in production achieved to date,"
said Jeffrey Clevenger, President and CEO.

"The achievement of twelve million man-hours without
a lost time accident continues to establish a new target
for the mining industry and re-enforces the shared
commitment of Apex and our Bolivian employees
to operating and safety excellence".

We are completing the determination of our second quarter
financial results, which will reflect a non-cash loss
of approximately $165 million for the quarter ended
June 30, 2007 related to our metals derivative positions
due to metals price increases in the second quarter,
and will issue our second quarter earnings release
later this week.

Ps.
Gold & Silver - The Only Real Money Standard =

not paper, not electronic credits, not chips and
not polo-ticz fiatz or 666counterfeitz vs....

The old real dollar is the name of the official currency
in several countries, dependencies and other regions,
including Australia, Canada, the East Caribbean, Liberia,
Hong Kong, New Zealand, Singapore and the United States -

It is represented by the symbol $, placed before the dollar
amount (in French Canada, after) -

The dollar was also in use in Scotland -
during the 17th century, and there is a claim that -
it was invented at the University of St Andrews -

The name is related to the historic currencies Tolar,
in Bohemia, Thaler, in Germany and Daler, in Sweden.

The name thaler (from thal, valley) originally came
from the guldengroschen (great gulden, being of silver
but equal in value to a gold gulden) coins minted -
from the silver from a rich mine at St. Joachimstal
(St. Joachim's Valley) in Bohemia -
(now in the Czech Republic).

The name Spanish dollar was used for a Spanish silver coin,
the peso, an 8 real coin, which was widely circulated -
during the 18th century in the Spanish colonies -
in the New World -

The use of the Spanish dollar and the Maria Theresa thaler -
as legal tender for the early United States -
is the reason for the name of that nation's currency -

The word dollar was in use in the English language -
for the thaler for about 200 years prior to -
the American Revolution -

Spanish dollars, or pieces of eight as they were called,
were in circulation in the 13 colonies that became
the United States and legal tender in Virginia -
