Silver Standard has the largest published in-ground silver resource of any publicly-traded silver company, with a pipeline of projects in Argentina, Peru, Mexico, Canada, Chile, the United States and Australia. We are making the transition to production with aggressive development on our core properties and the construction of our Pirquitas mine in northern Argentina, where commissioning is scheduled to commence in the fourth quarter of 2008.
Pirquitas will be among the largest open pit primary silver mines in the world, with average annual silver production of 10.9 million ounces, and with significant contributions from tin and zinc.
Other key projects we are advancing include the high-grade, gold-silver San Luis joint venture project in the Ancash Department of Peru, and our Pitarrilla silver project in Durango State, Mexico.
Silver Standardard's shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol SSO and on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol SSRI.

Company NewsWednesday, June 24, 2009 Silver Standard Resources reported the results of a pre-feasibility study for the underground component of the Breccia Ridge Zone at the Pitarrilla Project in Mexico. Based on the pre-feasibility study, the underground component of Breccia Ridge now contains probable silver reserves of 91.7 million ounces. Scoping studies on underground bulk mining and open pit development for Breccia Ridge are continuing, and, if satisfactory, pre-feasibility studies will follow. Feasibility-level studies are also continuing on certain aspects of the project. The Breccia Ridge Zone, containing 63% of Pitarrilla’s total silver resource of 643.6 million ounces of measured and indicated silver resources and 82.3 million ounces of inferred silver resources, is the main focus of current project activities and is one of five zones of mineralization identified to date on the property.
