dfergu, your assumptions run wild...Why would I want to own SLW rather thas SST...Well, today the former is up 6% the later up 2% at best...
You mention 3 million oz of production to be completed by the end of 2007....no specifics....
Another set of ozs. in 2008...we'll see...These will have to be a higher prices....Who is going to sell long term silver production at even $5 per oz with silver at $13.
It is apparent to me that more deals are neccessary and I hope you estimates are correct...But the poor performance of base metals stocks and this one relative to GOLD itself suggests a new set of assumptions needs to be considered. Those are that base metals will follow the stock market and Silver will be somewhere in between Gold and the stock market and SST, until news deals are announced a relative underperformer....
...by the way...added some SST today...but that is all for now.
