gutso,
in D sind sie gelistet. Eher für die USA, weil da sind sie in den pink sheets.
Die IRC.TO ist nun auch in USA gelistet als ROY.
Gute Firma.
Silber:
Keith ist dieses Wochenende in wien auf der "Gewinnmesse"
Da genießt er Exotenstatus als einzige silberfirma unter lauter Banken etc.
Langsam kommen wir bei FR wieder in Kursregionen, wo man sich zweimal überlegt, das Geld zu nehmen. Das sollte halten bis, Dez. würde einiges geld sparen.
EXN: kommt schön langsam in die Gänge.
ECU: da wart ich noch immer auf den shareholder letter von Roy.
Aber er hat sich in dem Bericht von gestern auch schon geäußert.
Den hab ich mir schon zweimal gelesen, man müsste sich aber den Minenplan anschauen. Es könnte eine schöne Ausweitung geben.
Wieviel g ag oder au ist da egal. wie immer viel, aber ganz schmale veins.
Außerdem werden die Goldgehalte immer mehr.

ECU Silver Mining, Inc.: Discovery on Level 18 of New Massive
Sulfide Vein of 7.74 Meters '25.4 feet' Yielding 18.57 g/t Gold,
41 g/t Silver, 0.89% Pb and 1.99% Zn;
========================================================
A4 Vein on level 18 has been opened for 30 meters (98.4 feet) with last
15 meters (49.2 feet) yielding 6.08 g/t Au, 206 g/t Ag, 2.34% Pb,
5.24% Zn and 0.41% Cu over 2.17 meters (7.1 feet) of width.
Torreón, Coahuila, October 19, 2006, ECU Silver Mining Inc. (TSX.V:
ECU) 'the Company' is pleased to announce new assay results from
underground development and diamond drilling on level 18 in the Tres
Aguilas sector of the Santa Juana mine.
A4 vein at Santa Juana Mine - western sector of Level 18:
Recently, the Company opened the A4 vein on level 18 and began drifting
south-east along the vein. The Company is pleased to announce that 30
meters (98.4 feet) of drifting along the A4 vein has been completed and
consistent with all recent discoveries, the grades and thicknesses
improve as drilling proceeds deeper through each level.
Level 18 is the deepest level of the mine reached at this juncture in
the Company's development program. Points of significance relating to
these particular findings are as follows:
1) The average grades over the entire 30 meters (98.4 feet) were 4.78
g/t Au, 176 g/t Ag, 1.8% Pb, 3.36% Zn and 0.45% Cu over 1.78 meters
(5.84 feet) of width. See Table 1 below;
2) The last 15 meters (49.2 feet) of drifting along the vein averaged
6.08 g/t Au, 206 g/t Ag, 2.34% Pb, 5.24% Zn and 0.41% Cu over 2.17
meters (7.11 feet) of true thickness;
3) Actual data continues to confirm our model that higher grades and
wider thicknesses should be encountered as development and drilling
continue deeper. The Company perceives this as most significant as
results demonstrate that the average width of the A4 vein is higher
than what has been observed on the levels above and;
4) There is a further 70 meters (230feet) of drifting still remaining
along the A4 vein on level 18 before reaching the projection of hole TA
17.5-11 discussed below. Furthermore, there is an additional 70 meters
(230feet) to be opened beyond hole TA 17.5-11 to south-east before the
limits of the property are reached. If the trend of better grades and
wider intercepts remains consistent then the remaining 140 meters (459
feet) of drifting along the A4 vein may continue to yield similar or
better results then those already reported. Readers are cautioned that
actual data may vary significantly from expected results;
5) At this time, the A4 vein has been confirmed to extend vertically
about 150 meters above level 18 and about 400 meters below actual
workings on level 18, for a total of 550 meters (1804 feet). Readers
are cautioned that until further data is collected from the A4 vein
below level 18, there are no guarantees that the mineralization will be
of economic interest.

New massive sulfide vein discovered via drill hole TA 17.5-11- Eastern
sector of Level 18:
In an effort to test the continuation of the level 17.5 stockwork zone
at depth as well as to test for the mineralized green skarn, the
Company drilled hole 17.5-11 that was initiated from inside the
stockwork zone on level 17.5. The Company is pleased to announce that
hole TA 17.5-11 intersected the downward continuation of veins found in
the cross-cut of the 17.5 level where the "stockwork" zone was
originally identified. For point of reference, there are about 25
meters of vertical height between the 17.5 and 18 levels. (see
Company's press release May 8, 2006)
Hole TA 17.5-11 first cut veins before reaching a massive sulfide
(mostly pyrite) vein, that yielded ultimately 18.57 g/t gold, 41 g/t
silver, 0.89% lead and 1.99% zinc over a core length of 7.71 meters
(25.2 feet) with an estimated true thickness of about 3.5 meters (11.48
feet). See table 2 below.
To date, this is the thickest massive sulfide intercept that has ever
been found in the mine. It occurred about 15 meters below level 17.5
and about 70 meters ahead of the current A4 vein drift workings as
reported above.

Summary and possible implications of latest results:
The Company's objective for drifting on level 18 and drilling beyond is
to attempt to gather evidence to demonstrate the continuity of the
stockwork zones already discovered on levels 15 and 17.5. Simply
stated, the Company would like to confirm if the zones on all these
levels are a part of one large mineralized corridor system as opposed
to being individual blocks scattered on various levels in the Santa
Juana mine.
The Company is presently in the process of mapping out the latest
discoveries which will make our exploration program easier to follow
and understand. It is imperative to understand that this newly
discovered massive sulfide vein between level 17.5 and level 18 is
parallel and about 10 meters north-east of the A4 vein, both part of
what is referred to as the stockwork zone. This point is crucial as the
Company is now almost certain that when a cross-cut is driven on level
18 which is to occur shortly, both the A4 vein and the new discovered
massive sulfide vein will be intersected. Although these latest
findings suggest favorable grades may be encountered in the cross-cut,
until actual data is collected, there are no guarantees that they will
be.
For the reader's point of reference, the initial stockwork zone
discovered on level 17.5 lies between the A4 vein to the north-east and
the Santa Juana vein to south-west and these two veins run parallel to
one another with a slight dip to the north-east. From actual data, it
is known that level 17.5 stockwork zone has a width of approximately 30
meters (98.4 feet) and that the lateral extension of the A4 vein on the
upper levels exceeds 150 meters (492 feet) in this section of the mine.
Furthermore, current development work shows that the lateral extension
of the A4 vein on level 18 could reach approximately 170 meters (558
feet).
Based on the most recent assay results from:
a) The first 30 meters of drifting along the A4 vein on level 18;
b) The new massive sulfide vein found just above level 18 ; and
c) The actual data collected from TA 17.5-11 makes it clear that the
veins found in level 17.5 stockwork zone extend towards level 18 and
are getting wider.
The Company is of the opinion that the numerous veins contained within
the limits of the "stockwork" zone on level 17.5 could be thicker on
level 18. Readers are once again cautioned that actual data may vary
significantly from expected results.
"The Company is pleased with these latest findings from level 18.
Furthermore, with the full implementation of an additional two drills
expected to begin shortly, our exploration program should accelerate
nicely." noted Michel Roy, president and chief executive officer of ECU
Silver Mining.
The Company continues to develop level 18 and will report results as
they become available. Additionally, a cross cut to check the stockwork
zone projection on level 18 is scheduled to get under way shortly.
Lastly, hole 17.5-11 has reached a further 100 meters below level 18
and initial core samples suggest that our green mineralized skarn
(skarn#1) was intercepted again. Results are pending.
All widths from the drift are true widths while the widths from
drilling represent the core length and may not be representative of the
true width. Samples were assayed at ERSA, in Torreón, Coahuila, Mexico,
this laboratory is currently in the process of being certified, and at
SGS in Durango, Durango, which is a certified laboratory. Property
specific quality control samples were inserted at regular intervals in
the sample sequence and the Company routinely does check assays at
other certified laboratories.
