The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) shows that China, the world’s largest producer of antimony, produced 170,000 tonnes of antimony out of a total 2009 global output of 187,000 tonnes.

From what I can recall from several company PRs, Silverado believes that the main "A" vein could stretch aprox. 2 miles across Solomon Shear zone. The company says that drill core samples from the four massive veins located at Workman's Bench area show they are open to depth and length, I can't recall off the top of my head if that report was the same for all four veins but I think it did. Keep in mind that one or more of these Antimony veins are as pure as it can get in nature.

China produces roughly 70,000/tons of Antimony per year.
Silverado plan 200ton/day mill operation
70,000 div. 200= 350 days (360 days in a year)
In MHO, Silverado could easily take over China's 89% Antimony annual output with their planed small 200 ton/day mill operation.
