GM S.apple, I would imagine it's not that easy to find a good CEO, with emphasis on "GOOD". They have to contend with the geographical location (I assume it's somewhat remote) and they need someone who is now available and who has a great track record in mining operations, but especially with experience in cost control and with marketing ideas...not to mention what they're willing to pay in salary/benefits to find such a leader.

I hope they will find some way to attract more investors over other mines, like offering dividends in physical silver. That would probably turn LOTS of eyes our way.

I believe the most likely scenario would be a miner that does not have silver assets. A company similar to US Silver,in structure and vision ,only presently in other metals. More so a merger ,than a buy out. My belief in months past about a merger between Hecla,Revett or Mines Mgmt. is not as likely now that it is more common knowledge of the huge capital costs ,the three other silver miners need. Since the profits at USSIF have decreased ,due to silver prices,a merger with the same commodity producer seems less likely,imo. Value is value and price is rarely indicative of value.The value at US Silver is only appreciated by a mining outfit that doesn't have what we have and is convinced of the eventual turn around of silver to be greater than their product.Therefore a merger with a beaten down company like US Silver would be active .I believe what I said months ago ,that active merger talks are ongoing.
