(“ECU”). The primary asset acquired in the Transaction was the 100% interest in the Velardeña and Chicago precious metals mining properties in Mexico (the “Velardeña Properties”). The Company is primarily focused on efforts to create a new mining and processing plan for its Velardeña Properties, the advancement of its El Quevar advanced exploration property in Argentina, and the exploration of properties in Argentina and Mexico. The Company is also reviewing strategic opportunities, focusing primarily on development or operating properties in North America, including Mexico.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt;"> </p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt;"><font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt;" size="2">The Company is considered an exploration stage company under the criteria set forth by the Security and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as the Company has not yet demonstrated the existence of proven or probable reserves, as defined by the SEC Industry Guide 7, at the Velardeña Properties, or any of the Company’s other properties.  As a result, and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for exploration stage companies, all expenditures for exploration and evaluation of the Company’s properties are expensed as incurred. As such the Company’s financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of mining companies that do have proven and probable reserves.  Such companies would typically capitalize certain development costs including infrastructure development and mining activities to access the ore. The capitalized costs would be amortized on a units-of-production basis as reserves are mined.  The amortized costs are typically allocated to inventory and eventually to cost of sales as the inventories are sold.  As the Company does not have proven and probable reserves, substantially all expenditures at the Company’s Velardeña Properties for mine construction activity, as well as costs associated with the mill facilities, and for items that do not have a readily identifiable market value apart from the mineralized material, have been expensed as incurred. Such costs are charged to cost of metals sold or project expense during the period depending on the nature of the costs. Certain of the costs may be reflected in inventories prior to the sale of the product. The term “mineralized material” as used herein, although permissible under SEC Industry Guide 7, does not indicate “reserves” by SEC standards. The Company cannot be certain that any deposits at the Velardeña Properties or any other exploration property will ever be confirmed or converted into SEC Industry Guide 7 compliant “reserves”.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt;"> </p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt;"><font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt;" size="2">Effective June 19, 2013 the Company suspended mining and processing at its Velardeña Properties in order to conserve the asset until the Company is able to create mining and processing plans that, at then current prices for silver and gold, indicate a sustainable cash margin from extraction of minerals.  The Company has placed the mine and processing plants on a care and maintenance program to enable a restart when mining and processing plans and metals prices support a cash positive outlook for the property.  Approximately 420 positions at the Velardeña Properties were eliminated at the beginning of July 2013, with an additional approximately 20 positions eliminated in October 2013 following the completion of certain suspension activities primarily related to the idling of plant and mobile equipment. The Company currently plans to retain a core group of approximately 40 employees to facilitate a restart of mining and processing and to maintain and safeguard the longer term value of the asset.  The number of employees may be further reduced in 2014 as the Company continues to evaluate restart plans.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt;"> </p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt;"><font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt;" size="2">Upon emergence from Chapter 11 reorganization on March 24, 2009, the Company became the successor to Apex Silver Mines Limited (the “Predecessor”) for purposes of reporting under the U.S. federal securities laws. Upon emergence from the Chapter 11 reorganization and as required by U.S. GAAP and per the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”), and ASC 852, “Reorganizations” (“ASC 852”), the Company applied fresh start accounting and adjusted all of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities to their respective fair values based on the Company’s reorganization value.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt;"> </p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.25in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt;"><font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt;" size="2">The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under which an entity is considered to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, the continuing operations of the Company are dependent upon its ability to secure sufficient funding and to generate future profitable operations.  The underlying value and recoverability of the amounts shown as mineral properties in the consolidated balance sheet are dependent on the ability of the Company to generate positive cash flow from operations and to continue to fund exploration and development activities that would lead to profitable mining activities or proceeds from the disposition of the mineral properties.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in generating future profitable operations or securing additional funding in the future on terms acceptable to the Company or at all.</font></p> </div> | |

When a mineral property is determined to have proven and probable reserves, subsequent development costs are capitalized to mineral properties.  For acquired mineral properties with proven and probable reserves, the Company capitalizes acquisition costs and subsequent development costs.  When mineral properties are developed and operations commence, capitalized costs are charged to operations using the units-of-production method over proven and probable reserves. Upon abandonment or sale of a mineral property, all capitalized costs relating to the specific property are written off in the period abandoned or sold and a gain or loss is recognized in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt;"> </p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt;"><font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt;" size="2">As discussed in Note 1, the Company is considered an exploration stage company under the criteria set forth by the SEC since it has not yet demonstrated the existence of proven or probable reserves at the Velardeña Properties, or any of the Company’s other properties. As such, the Company expenses costs as incurred related to the extraction of mineralized material at its Velardeña Properties.  The Company established a cost basis for the mineralized material at the Velardeña Properties as a result of purchase accounting for the Company’s business combination transaction with ECU in September 2011, the transaction pursuant to which the Company acquired the Velardeña Properties. Mineral properties acquired in the ECU merger were recorded at estimated fair market value based on valuations performed with the assistance of an independent appraisal firm and a minerals engineering company. Although the Company has not demonstrated the existence of proven and probable reserves, and the Company has not completed a pre-feasibility economic assessment, the Company had established the existence of mineralized material that was used in assigning value to mineral properties for purchase accounting purposes. The subsequent extraction of this mineralized material has provided a reasonable basis for the calculation of units-of-production depreciation for the cost basis in the mineral properties.</font></p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt;"> </p> <p style="TEXT-INDENT: 0.5in; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt;"><font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt;" size="2">As a requirement of fresh start accounting, certain exploration properties were recorded at their fair market value upon emergence from Chapter 11 reorganization on March 24, 2009.  On a quarterly basis the Company evaluates its exploration properties to determine if they meet the Company’s minimum requirements for continued evaluation.  The rights to the properties that do not meet the minimum requirements are relinquished and the carrying values, if any are written off and reflected in other operating gains and losses, net on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.  Costs of exploration subsequent to the application of fresh start accounting have and will continue to be expensed.</font></p> </div> | |
