Orko Silver Provides an Update of Activities at La Preciosa
On August 11, 2011, we, along with our joint venture partner Pan American Silver Corp. released a Preliminary Economic Assessment for the La Preciosa project. The results of the PEA were very favorable for the project, showing an after-tax net present value at a 5% discount rate of US$315 million (assuming prices of US$25/oz silver and US$1,250/oz gold). The project generates a 24.3% IRR assuming the above metal prices.
