TOP PRIMARY SILVER MINERS Q3 2014 RESULTS: Losses At $19

With all the third-quarter results finally out, the top primary silver miners as a group lost money producing silver at $19 an ounce. This is not good news as the current price of silver is nearly $3 lower. I would imagine the fourth quarter will be extremely painful for the primary silver mining industry that actually produces wealth, unlike the Banking community that behaves more like a BLOOD SUCKING LEECH.

Liberty Dollar founder avoids imprisonment in sentencing

We have it only through a reliable intermediary that Liberty Dollar founder Bernard von Not Haus, convicted rather strangely almost four years ago of counterfeiting for issuing silver coins worth more than the originals they were supposed to be imitating, received a lenient sentence today from Judge Richard Voorhees in U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina -- six months of home confinement and three years of probation.
