Our website is focused on silver companies, silver stocks and silver bullion as investments. We provide news, analyses, reports and general information in a single internet destination that we hope will be invaluable to anyone with an interest in silver, the precious metal seemingly forgotten by the investment mainstream. By "silver stock" or "silver company", we mean any publicly-traded company with a primary (50% or more) focus and operation involving the exploration for, development of, or production from primary silver mines. Such mines are somewhat of a rarity in that more than 70% of the world’s silver is produced as a by-product of mining for gold, copper, lead or zinc.

The rebirth of a precious metals bull market, which silver joined during the middle of 2003, has provided a shot in the arm of the people and companies involved in exploring for and mining silver throughout the world. The rise in silver prices has lifted the boats of virtually every silver stock, making silver companies as a group among the best performing stocks in the last two years. With the initial excitement winding down, the time is right for a focused, reasoned and intelligent look at the silver bull market with a goal to identify and evaluate investment opportunities as the market progresses.

In publishing this website, our editors bring considerable experience in financial analysis, the precious metals and stock markets. They are skilled in maintaining a professional, independent and balanced (some would say skeptical) viewpoint that is the cornerstone to understanding any market.
