Junior Mining Stocks: Canada's Subprime

TREY WASSER, Pilot Point Partners (12/12/2008)
"A few of our favorites:

Fortuna Silver (TSX.V:FVI) has over $40MM in cash and is operating their Caylloma Mine in Peru at a small profit. They were smart enough to hedge the lead and zinc production, although most of the hedge will roll off in Q4. Next year they intend to shift production to the bonanza silver veins they have recently discovered on the property to keep the mine cash-flow positive. Fortuna has consolidated their San Jose property in Oaxaca, Mexico and should have an updated resource out early next year. They have completed construction on the first phase of the ramp and infill drilling continues to produce excellent results. We believe that the San Jose resource could grow to over 100MM silver equivalent ounces."
