Corporate Profile (11/09) Wildcat Corp Pres. 09/2009

The information below is based on the most recent information we have received from analysts and the companies participating in The Gold Report. We encourage you to visit the company's web site for updates.

"Wildcat Silver Corp. also upgraded resource definitions. Total reported indicated and inferred resources now include 80.4 million oz. of silver (+50% from previous estimate), 1.74 million tons of manganese (+196%), 225 thousand tons of zinc (+140%), 14.1 thousand tons of copper (+187%) and 162 thousand tons of lead (not previously included). The resource was defined using a $14/oz silver price assumption (from $8.5/oz in the previous 2007 estimate), as well as four comparison holes from the central area of the deposit and 1,251 historical sample pulps not previously included either. This estimate does not include the results of second phase drilling completed in October 2009 and released in November 2009."

"Wildcat released some great news last week. The company increased its official resource estimate to include 80 million ounces of silver and 3.8 billion pounds of manganese.

The news just makes Wildcat more undervalued than it was before. For example, most silver companies get 50 cents to $1 per ounce of silver in the ground. Wildcat, with a market cap of $43 million, is getting 53 cents per ounce of silver. That's towards the low end of the scale, but it's ridiculously cheap because that doesn't even take into account the 3.8 billion pounds of manganese. The manganese has a market value of more than $4 billion. . .

I don't know any catalysts for Wildcat in the short term, but if you can wait out the market, it should do well."

"Wildcat Silver (TSX:WS or Pinksheets:WLVDF) – The long-awaited drilling results finally came. Overall, the results were good. But at this size, it's going to take a new resource estimate to get Wildcat really going again. The company should be able to put one of those together in 2010, but we'll be able to beat them to it as more results flow.

Don't get me wrong, it's disappointing to see the market react so poorly. The value is still there, but I don't recommend buying more at this time and if you're in, we'll just stick to the original plan."

"Wildcat Silver (TSX:WS or Pinksheets:WLVDF)—Another value play, only in silver and manganese. Wildcat has a $50 million market cap and 53.6 million ounces of silver. As a kicker, it has 1.2 billion pounds of manganese (worth about $1 per pound on the open market) and the exploration potential to double those reserve estimates.

Catalyst—New exploration results that must be coming soon. I spoke with Chris Jones, Wildcat's CEO, on Tuesday and he said they're coming soon."
- Andrew Mickey, Q1 Publishing (11/18/09)

"As you may know, about 80% of manganese is used in steel production, but there's a new demand for it now in hybrid car batteries. If you like lithium and rare earths, you should look into manganese could be a big opportunity in manganese as well.

In that space, your readers may be interested in a company called Wildcat Silver Corporation (TSX-V: WS). Some of the same people are behind one of our top-performing picks we found February, Ventana Gold Corp. (TSX:VEN). Ventana was actually spun out of Wildcat, which owns 80% of what is basically a silver/manganese deposit in Arizona.

There's plenty of exploration upside there, and Wildcat's net present value is about four to five times higher than its market cap.. ."
