Assian Silver,presious metal due to rocket (AGQ)     

niceonecyril - 01 Nov 2010 08:46

THIS STOCK IS ISABLE

This junior resource market is now all about people. Money is cheap, (though I suspect not for long) and there are lots of properties out there � but finding the right people who can provide deal flow who are qualified and trained to manage these assets � is very difficult. Nowadays finding these teams at an early stage investment can be just as challenging to the retail investor. I have found a new silver company that I believe has very capable management and are beginning to implement their business model - Arian Silver (AGQ-TSXV).

CEO Jim Williams has assembled a strong team for this company. Chairman of Arian Silver is Tony Williams (no relation), who is also Chair of European Minerals (EPM-TSX). Tony has raised more than a hundred million dollars for EPM, and raised hundreds of millions in the 1990s for resource companies as the European head of Yorkton Securities.

David Cohen is on the board � David is CEO of Northern Orion Resources (NNO-TSX, NTO-AMEX) which is a low cost producer of gold & copper in South America generating substantial cash flow.

Interestingly, Gord Keep was President of the public shell company on the AIM board in the UK (Hard Assets Inc.) through which Arian Silver first went public. Keep is Managing Director of Endeavour Financial, one of the most powerful mining finance houses in North America. This tells me the Endeavour group has a substantial position in Arian, as Hard Assets Inc. received 46% of the merged company. (There are 90 million shares issued on this company.)

Sponsorship like this is important in the market. It tells the market that this company has the ability to raise a lot of money for a big asset that will garner a lot of attention. And that�s one of the main reasons I�m following the company � I believe this team will acquire an asset that will deserve a much higher market capitalization than today. Growth via acquisition is how Endeavour and its management teams built up Wheaton River Minerals (WRM-TSX, since merged with Goldcorp), Bankers Petroleum (BNK-TSX), and Urasia Energy (UUU-TSXV). I just can�t say when that might happen.

Arian has acquired progressively larger assets to date, all in Mexico. Two are especially interesting to me:

One is Calicanto, which appears to be a large (i.e. wide and long) high grade vein system. The company is currently completing two bulk samples from an adit now underway. Assays are due soon.

All are "brown-field" sites with substantial past exploratory works having been undertaken and generally have significant mine infrastructure in place.

Typical silver grades are around 700 g/t, the silver: gold ratio is ~ 500:1. Some of the better results from the initial phase of the Calicanto exploration campaign include >10,000 g/t Ag and 10.9 g/t Au over 1.2 m, 1,720 g/t Ag and 1.92 g/t Au over 1.7 m, 649 g/t Ag and 2.37 g/t Au over 1 m. These samples were taken from veins which are part of a wider (4.5 - 5 m) zone of stockwork mineralization.

Their latest acquisition is very intriguing. It�s called the TEPAL project, which was explored in the 1970s and the 1990s by a number of companies including INCO, Teck and Hecla. The historical data indicates 78.82 million tonnes of mineralization grading 0.5 grams/tonne (g/t) gold (Au) and 0.25% copper (Cu), equating to 1.23 million contained ounces of gold and 432.63 million contained pounds of copper. The historical data also indicates potential for higher-grade within these zones. The property has great size potential.

Both INCO and Teck were interested in Tepal as a copper-gold porphyry target, regarding silver only as a by-product. Hecla's primary focus on the Project was as a large tonnage, low-grade gold target. Tepal has not been systematically tested for silver by previous owners, because of its low price. Arian management obviously believes that potentially significant quantities of silver, as well as other metals, could also be present at the Tepal Project.

Let�s look at what this project is worth at today�s metals prices courtesy of KitcoCasey.com

http://www.kitco.com/pop_windows/kitcorockcalc.html

78M tonnes of .484 g/t AU and .249% Cu makes the rock worth $28.62 per tonne or a $2.2B in gross metal value.

What makes the project more than a low grade coppery porphyry is that the majority of holes were not assayed for silver � yet the press release commented that �Silver was assayed for by both INCO and Hecla and returned some interesting values.�

Take the $28 rock and add potentially 10 - 20 dollars per tonne for 1 � 2 oz silver grades and all of a sudden you have a project that runs (to put things in perspective) 1.5 grams per tonne gold equivalent. There are many mines in Mexico that work at those types of grades. This project already has the size it needs to be a mine � they just have to prove that silver grades throughout the ore are consistent and really are �interesting� enough to improve economics on the deposit. Arian Silver is a fresh new story with a strong technical and financial team behind it. While Endeavour�s deals often have more stock out than their peer group, this has provided them with strong incentive to find assets that command a much higher market cap and stock price � making us money. BNK-TSX Bankers Petroleum, and Urasia Energy, UUU-TSXV, are the most recent telling examples of this. Arian being recently listed is a telling sign that the story is just starting to unfold. This is early money, so be patient � but it should be very rewarding. I am long the stock.

'watshot recommends arian silver'

"Arian Silver holds a portfolio of silver projects in mexico, but for the present we need only concern ourselves with the largest, the 100%-owned San Jose mine. The company commenced commercial production at San Jose in October - but only from the currently defined 10% of the overall licence area. They expect to begin mining at a rate of 500 tons of ore per day but the company has a plan to raise this to 1,500 tpd in the near term. This mine has the potential to move the firm into positive cashflow, possibly by the end of 2010. With cash costs forecast to be $4.50 per ounce (or lower) margins could be as high as $66 million per year (based on an average of the grades recovered from the latest round of drilling at San Jose, a mining rate of 500 tpd and a conservative silver price of $20 per ounce).

What makes Arian Silver particularly mouth-watering however is the fact that Arian Silver has thus far only recovered resource estimates for 10% of the known strike length of the San Jose licence area. Given that it already has a JORC-compliant indicated and inferred resource of 43 million ounces Ag within the first 10%, the total resource could be very significant indeed! There's also the potential for another 25-50 million oz Ag at the Calicanto project.

Whilst investors should be aware that Arian Silver has yet to secure a milling partner (the ore mined will not be processed on site), negotiations are said to be proceeding well and the successful toll miller is expected to be announced soon. When that happens the shares should fly. The company had $2.1 million in the bank at the end of the first quarter which should be enough to see it through to positive cashflow territory, especially given that San Jose requires minimal capex (less than $1 million).

P.S. Although Arian Silver is AIM listed it can be included in an ISA. "

Silver May Top $30 Next Year as Investors Seeks Store of Value, GFMS Says
By Pham-Duy Nguyen - Nov 18, 2010 12:30 AM GMT Tweet (3)LinkedIn Share
Business ExchangeBuzz up!DiggPrint Email .Silver probably will top $30 an ounce in 2011, a gain of at least 17 percent, on demand by investors seeking a store of value, GFMS Ltd. said.

The metal will average $19.94 this year and around $28 next year, GFMS, a London-based research firm, said today in a report. The spot price averaged $14.70 in 2009. Investment demand was projected to rise to an all-time high of more than 210 million ounces in 2010, and fabrication and industrial use also climbed, GFMS said.

The price of silver for immediate delivery was up 52 percent this year to $25.60 yesterday, partly because buyers used the metal as alternative to currencies. This month, the dollar fell to the lowest level since December against a basket of major currencies, and the euro has fluctuated amid debt concerns in Greece and Ireland. Gold rose to a record last week.

The main driver of the price remains investment demand, GFMS said.

Silver supplies will rise 5 percent this year, and investors will be of a mood to absorb the resultant, growing surplus as key supports such as ultra-low interest rates, a weakening dollar and a buoyant gold market should remain with us, GFMS said.

This year, fabrication demand will increase 10 percent and industrial use will climb 18 percent, GFMS said. Mine production will advance more than 3 percent, and scrap supplies will jump more than 10 percent, the company said.

In 2010, gold futures in New York have climbed 22 percent, heading for the 10th straight annual gain. The metal reached a record $1,424.30 an ounce on Nov. 9. On that date, silver futures reached a 30-year high of $29.34. The all-time high was $50.35 in 1980.

Arian Commences New 10,000m Drilling Programme at San Jose, Mexico

LONDON, ENGLAND--(Marketwire - Nov. 22, 2010) - Arian Silver Corporation ("Arian" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:AGQ)(AIM:AGQ)(PLUS:AGQ)(FRANKFURT:I3A), a silver exploration, development and production company with a
focus on projects in the silver belt of Mexico, is pleased to announce the commencement of a new 10,000m drill
programme at its 100% owned San Jose Property, Zacatecas, Mexico.

The drill programme, which will complement the previous two drilling campaigns, is aimed initially to delineate
additional areas of high grade mineralisation and to upgrade existing resources, between the Santa Ana and
Guanajuatillo resource areas along the San Jose Vein ("SJV"). The drill programme will also start to explore in
detail the SJV system that lies to the west of the village of Guanajuatillo, which collectively accounts for
approximately 90% of the known strike length of the SJV system. One drill rig has commenced drilling at San
Jose, and a second drill rig will be mobilised and operational shortly.

The previous two drilling campaigns delineated JORC and NI 43-101 compliant resources of approximately 43
million ounces of silver, 120 million pounds of lead and 250 million pounds of zinc within only approximately
10% of the known strike length of the SJV within the concession area.

The location of some of the initial planned drill holes are shown in the satellite images found at the links
below:

Arian has also contracted to purchase a semi-mobile laboratory, which is being sourced by Stewart Group's
Geochemical & Assay Division (the "Stewart Group"). The laboratory comprises a comprehensive sample preparation
facility, a fire assay laboratory and a wet chemistry laboratory that has facilities for Atomic Absorption
Spectrometry ("AAS"). The laboratory will be under the sole control and operational management of professional
personnel from the Stewart Group in order that results are fully compliant with Arian's quality assurance and
quality control (QA/QC) programme. It is anticipated that the laboratory will be fully set up within
approximately 6-8 weeks in a secure area on the mine compound at San Jose. Prior to the laboratory becoming
operational, Arian will utilise the analytical services of the Stewart Group's sample preparation facility in
Zacatecas. The Stewart Group, headquartered in the United Kingdom, provide a network of accredited laboratories
and metallurgical services to mining and exploration companies.

Arian's Chief Executive Officer, Jim Williams, commented: "It is with great pleasure that I report the
commencement of our new 10,000m diamond drilling programme at San Jose and the decision to purchase a semi-
mobile analytical laboratory. Our efforts remain focused on advancing the San Jose property with the
delineation of further compliant resources and continuing to create increased shareholder value. One of the
current issues with modern-day exploration is the turn-around times for analytical reporting; this issue will
be largely overcome once the new analytical laboratory has been delivered and commissioned."

A summing up of yesterdays news,the last paragraph is interesting(10 fold?).

http://www.hybridan.com/HybridanSCW/?small-cap-wraps

23 November 2010 Arian Silver Corporation (AGQ 31p/84.71m)
AIM listed silver exploration, development and production company with a focus on projects in the silver belt of Mexico, has announced the commencement of a new 10,000m drill programme at its 100 per cent owned San Jose Property, Zacatecas, Mexico. The drill programme, which will complement the previous two drilling campaigns, is aimed initially to delineate additional areas of high grade mineralisation and to upgrade existing resources, between the Santa Ana and Guanajuatillo resource areas along the San Jose Vein. One drill rig has commenced drilling at San Jose, and a second drill rig will be mobilised and operational shortly. The previous two drilling campaigns delineated JORC and NI 43-101 compliant resources of approximately 43 million ounces of silver, 120 million pounds of lead and 250 million pounds of zinc within only approximately 10 per cent of the known strike length of the SJV within the concession area. Arian has also contracted to purchase a semi-mobile laboratory, which is being sourced by Stewart Group's Geochemical & Assay. It is anticipated that the laboratory will be fully set up within approximately 6-8 weeks in a secure area on the mine compound at San Jose.
Since we last wrote in early November on Arian, almost 40m has been added to the market cap. Arian Silvers greatest potential lies in the scope, through further drilling and exploration, to add significantly to its assets in the ground. The mining plan based on the present resource and which will extract only the highest grade ores will generate income for four years, but this should be sufficient to finance most of the drilling required to expand the resource by a substantial amount, perhaps 10-fold, providing significant long-term upside potential for the shares.

Silver is rising fast and we should be well rewarded holding this one through 2011 if it's not taken over before then. An extra bonus is the isa part! not many others here though cyril which is surprising as we are the only silver producer on the aim market. I missed out on FRES when it floated and look at it now!

Yes most disappointing the level of interest,especially with goverments printing moey so putting greater value on the precious metals.These have more than doubled since i started the thread (nov1st),also the same with AAZ which has also doublrd in value.
Looking forward to updates in the not to distent future for both companies,which i expect to see furrthersharp rises?

LONDON, ENGLAND--(Marketwire - Dec. 20, 2010) - Arian Silver Corporation ("Arian" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:AGQ)(AIM:AGQ)(PLUS:AGQ)(FRANKFURT:I3A), a silver exploration, development and production company with a
focus on projects in the silver belt of Mexico, is pleased to report on progress at the Company's 100%-owned
San Jose Property in Zacatecas State, Mexico.

Highlights:

=- First batch of San Jose concentrate produced;
=- 8 drill holes completed along the San Jose Vein ("SJV");
=- Optimisation of the mill is progressing well;
=- New semi-mobile laboratory construction progressing well; and
=- 12 kilometres of strike extension of the SJV presents additional
significant targets for 2011 drilling.

The first batch of San Jose concentrate comprising 7.5 tonnes and containing 12.4 kilograms of silver (400
ounces) per tonne has been produced.

Optimisation of the mill is progressing well with a view to further increasing recoveries of silver in
concentrate.

Mining at San Jose is progressing well and the operation is currently focused on stoping at the 'Ramal Sur'
block and concurrently advancing the main haulage ramp in a westerly direction towards the higher-grade 'Santa
Ana' block, which itself comprises a number of stopes. In addition, improvements to the main haulage ramp have
taken place to ensure a more efficient operation, specifically enabling the more rapid transportation of Run-Of-
Mine material from the underground loading area to the stockpile pad on the surface.

Core drilling is underway using two 'Longyear 44' drill rigs. Eight holes have been completed to date with a
total of 1,518 metres, or 15.2% of the total programme, and the first samples have been submitted for analysis.

The construction of the Company's semi-mobile laboratory is progressing according to plan with the Stewart
Group in British Columbia, Canada, and this is expected to be delivered to the San Jose Mine during January
2011. Turnaround times for assay results should significantly improve for drill core samples when this is in
place (see the Company's press release dated 22 November 2010).

Commenting on today's operations update, Arian's Chief Executive Officer, Jim Williams, said:

"It gives me great pleasure to report such positive progressive news regarding all of the Company's major
activities. We have been working on increasing the mining and milling efficiencies since production commenced
at San Jose, and the results of these efforts are now becoming apparent with production of our first
concentrate.

"Experts forecast that silver prices will continue to strengthen next year, just as we increase our production
and begin to define some of the untested potential within the existing known mineralisation in the SJV system.
The exciting substantial potential along the approximately 12 kilometres of strike extension of the SJV
presents significant targets for our 2011 drilling. Once again, we would like to thank all our shareholders for
their continued support as we grow the Company."
