What the analysts and experts say about Silver Stock, SilverCrest Mines: Ron Struthers, Struthers Resource Stock Report (11/16/11) "SilverCrest Mines Inc. released a large number of drill results from the La Joya project. In addition to its own new holes, the company was given complete access to a database of 51 historic holes; the large database now in SilverCrest's possession hasn't simplified the geology but it has highlighted, in management's opinion, the potential for La Joya to host a large bulk-tonnage resource in addition to the higher-grade structures the company has focused on." Nicholas Campbell, Canaccord Genuity (11/15/11) "SilverCrest Mines Inc.'s phase 1 26-hole drill program is complete. . .33 of the holes completed on the Main Mineralized Trend (MMT) have drill defined a semi-continuous mineralized zone over 1,000m by 500m to a vertical depth of up to 230m. . .we expect an initial silver resource in excess of 50 Moz with gold and copper by-products. The 44 historical drill holes completed outside the MMT demonstrates the potential to expand the mineralization. . .longer-term, we see potential for La Joya to develop into a 100+ Moz silver resource."
