Is that a volume of 136 shares? Certainly not the 10 day average. LOL
Duh! Not easy to find a lot on this. Even Scottrade is skimpy on info. New project on the boards. Lots of SEC filings. That is impressive. Sorting through the quagmire of dollars and cents one would think that we had a $10 stock here.
So, I'll read up here to try and find out how these folks have been in business as long as they have and totally fallen below the iHub radar, have little information out and are now to be considered a silver player!
To cut through the chase, can they really afford to move forward into profitability and a rising PPS? Well, that is of course my question.
Just in case someone stops buy and is in a big hurry:
International Silver Inc. to Acquire Pan American Mine and Caselton Concentrator
4 days 17 hours 14 minutes ago - PMZ
GlobeNewswire
International Silver Inc. (OTCQB:ISLV) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a lease/purchase agreement to acquire the historic Pan American Zinc/Silver Mine and the Caselton Concentrator in Pioche/Comet Mining District of Lincoln County Nevada U.S.A. The Pan American Zinc/Silver Mine was last operated as a Joint Venture between Bunker Hill and the Anaconda Corporation. Ore was mined underground at a rate of 2,000 tons per day using bulk mining via a haulage ramp decline with a 7% dip along the dip of the orebody. Past production from the mine, which was last operated in 1979, amounted to 5.0 million tons of ore containing 13 million ounces of silver, 68 million pounds of lead, 150 million pounds of zinc and 94 thousand ounces of gold. Past production was from bedded replacements of limestone units within the Cambrian sections of the Combined Metals Bed, the same structure mined and present at the Company's Prince Mine 12 miles away. Mineralization as presently exposed in the mine is relatively uniform although displaced by faulting and is found to occur extensively in numerous horizons. The average grade mined from these replacements was 2.3 opt silver, 0.014 opt gold, 0.8% lead, 2.4% zinc and 8.5% manganese as manganese carbonate, an unusual occurrence. An independent engineer's shutdown report on the mine indicates that a proven resource of 1,757,850 tons of mineralization grading 1.28% lead, 2.51% zinc and 1.85 ounces of silver remains within the developed workings of the mine. The orebody is faulted off and all reserves are on the up-side of the fault. Drilling has indicated that the mineralized bed continues down-dip of the faults and grades and thicknesses are the same as on the up-side of the fault. It is estimated that the down-dip orebody is as wide as 2,000 feet and extends an unknown distance. What is known is that the mineralized bed is the CM Bed which is present in the Prince Mine 12 miles away. Following acquisition, the Company plans to extend the haulage ramp through the faulted zone and to drive through the down-dip extension.
During previous operations, Pan American ore was hauled to the Caselton Concentrator for processing at the rate of 2,000 tons per day, located adjacent to the Prince Mine, held under an exploration acquisition option by ISLV. This agreement includes acquisition of the Caselton Concentrator and support facilities. The Concentrator can be put back into operation as soon as minor repairs and updates are completed, permits are obtained in the name of the Company and a new tailings dam is permitted and constructed. The mill has three SAG mills installed with three lines of conventional flotation to produce a zinc concentrate, lead/precious metals concentrate and a ferro/manganese concentrate.
It is the intent of International Silver to conduct further exploration at both the Pan American Mine along with its ongoing program at the Prince Mine located 12 miles away, in the expectation that the structural and stratigraphic factors which control mineralization have formed more extensive zones of silver mineralization. This exploration work will entail geologic mapping, surface and underground sampling, followed by ramp extension to the down side of the faults, core and rotary drilling.
International Silver Inc. is a publicly traded exploration and mine development company whose properties are located in North America, principally in the United States and Mexico. It currently holds the Leviathan Mine in the Calico Mining District of San Bernardino, California which is comprised of 60 unpatented mining claims (1,242 acres) and hosts three previously worked silver deposits, the Silverado, the Leviathan and the Silver Bow mines.
International Silver is currently conducting exploration of the Prince Mine located 12 miles from the Pan American Mine, also a fully developed surface and underground mine previously worked for several decades and last worked in 1957.
International Silver also wholly owns a Mexican subsidiary which holds three adjacent mining properties, the El Cumbro, El Cusito and Canada del Oro properties in the Sierra Nevada gold belt of southern Sonora State and the La Moneda precious metals property located near Puerto Libertad on the Gulf of Cortez, also in Sonora.
International Silver is focused on identifying and establishing control positions of silver properties in previously worked silver districts of North America and developing these properties through exploration and permitting to establish reserves that will ultimately result in operating silver mines.

ISLV, International Silver Inc. to Acquire Pan American Mine and Caselton Concentrator

International Silver Inc. (otcqb:ISLV) to Explore Prince Mine
TUCSON, AZ, Nov 09, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- International Silver Inc. (otcqb:ISLV) /quotes/comstock/11i!islv (ISLV 0.12, 0.00, 0.00%) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a lease/purchase agreement to explore and acquire the historic Prince Silver Mine in Lincoln County, Nevada U.S.A. The Prince Silver Mine is a former producer of silver, gold, lead, zinc and manganese sulfide and oxide fluxing ore. Past production from the mine which was last operated in 1951 amounts to 3.6 million ounces of silver, 68 million pounds of lead, 110 million pounds of zinc and 17 thousand ounces of gold from 1.2 million tons of ore. Past production was from both underground and surface operations which exploited bedded replacements of limestone units within the Cambrian stratigraphic section. Mineralization as presently exposed in the mine appears to be relatively uniform although displaced by faulting and is found to occur extensively in numerous horizons. The average grade mined from these replacements was 2.9 opt silver, 0.014 opt gold, 2.8% lead, 4.5% zinc and 8.5% manganese. An independent engineers report on the mine indicates that a geologic resource of at least 1.8 million tons of mineralization with similar grade and continuity is present within the previously developed mine area. Independent sampling by International Silver geologists has confirmed the reported grades of previously mined ore, however, a full exploration program is required to establish reserves that conform with SEC reporting requirements.
It is the intent of International Silver to conduct further exploration at the mine and the surrounding area in the expectation that the structural and stratigraphic factors which control mineralization have formed more extensive zones of silver mineralization. This exploration work will entail geologic mapping, surface and underground sampling, followed by core and rotary drilling.
The Company objective is to confirm an open pit resource of approximately 15 million tons of near surface oxidized mineralization at similar grades and to confirm by metallurgical testing of the cores collected during drilling that the ore is free leaching with acid and amenable to solvent extraction and electrowinning of zinc (to produce special high grade cathode zinc) and manganese (EMD-electro-manganese dioxide). Silver and lead will become insoluble sulfates in the leaching process and will be treated as a high grade lead-silver-gold concentrate.
International Silver Inc. is a publicly traded exploration and mine development company whose properties are located in North America, principally in the United States and Mexico. It currently holds the Leviathan Mine in the Calico Mining District of San Bernardino, California which is comprised of 60 unpatented mining claims (1,242 acres) and hosts three previously worked silver deposits, the Silverado, the Leviathan and the Silver Bow mines.
