Additional Notes:

Potential Resources    -    Vederdena Web page (viewed January 26, 2009) containing updates from the January 24, 2009 (NI) 43-101 report update.

Estimate of Potential Resources

The mineral potential of a property cannot be estimated to the same accuracy as a mineral resource and must be stated as a range. To calculate a range for grades, a factor of minus 10 % was applied for the downside and plus 10 % for the upside potential. ...
GoldMinerPulse metrics exclude the Potential Resources and have only consider the (NI) 43-101 recognized resource categories (i.e. measured, indicated and inferred). 

GoldMinerPulse Coverage Status:

  • GoldMinerPulse coverage of ECU Silver Mining Inc. is complete pending a final internal review.

Estimate notes: See Table 1.2 Summary of the Measured, Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate for the Velardeña Properties as of November 15, 2008 on p. 13 of 189 in the (NI) 43-101 report dated January 20, 2009.
Resource estimates are based on a NSR value cut-off of US$45 per tonne and US$25 for vein packages. Also, note:
The above table includes the 50% of the resources attributable to ECU from the San Diego property which is subject to a joint venture agreement between ECU and Golden Tag.
GoldMinerPulse assumes that the separate San Diego (NI) 43-101 is already counted in the above figures based on the comment on p. 13 of 189 of the (NI) 43-101 report:
ECU’s mineral resource estimate includes its 50% attributable portion of the resources located on the San Diego property where it has a joint venture agreement with Golden Tag. The resource estimate for the San Diego project has been reported in its entirety in a separate Technical Report dated January 20, 2009.
Note: GoldMinerPulse tracks resources in the Proven, Probable, Measured, Indicated and Inferred categories and does not include historical or Potential resource classifications. As a result, the Table 1.3 Summary of the Mineral Potential Range for the Velardeña Properties estimates on p. 14 of 189 in the (NI) 43-101 report are not included.
