In to-day's money, 1/2 to 1B dollars would be necessary to build all the infrastructures which are in place by Silverado as well as the exploratory drilling etc. which has been done! Garry has invested very close to $100 M over the last many years.
Secondly, in a real sense, Silverado has been in very limited production for some yrs.
Therefore they highly qualify for & in fact already have made it - that is the 1 in a 1,000 jr. gold mines to go into production. This production will only increase in the future with the proper financing & further exploratory drilling.
