Another company I like is Silver Standard (SSO)

- Largest silver resource (lots still inferred) in the world (1.8 billion OZ ag and over 20 million oz AU) - at 40:1 ratio that's 2.6 billion oz ag eq.

- production beginning with 6 million oz this year at Piriquitas in Argentina

- production to average 10 million oz (at piriquitas over the next 14.5 years)

- at least 2 other projects ramping up to production (1 in feasibility-Q209 and another in pre-feas) and lots of other projects in the pipline.

- Just raised $94 million USD in February through PP

Current market cap is about $1.4 billion ... about $.54 per ounce of silver in the ground.
