As stated in the Company's filings for its quarter ended March 31, 2013, the Company continues to have a working capital deficiency. These factors represent a material uncertainty that may cast a significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company emphasizes that, given currently depressed silver prices, it will be required to complete its previously announced financing of up to $5 million in order to continue its operations in the normal course and may require additional debt or equity in the future.
