If you go about 160 miles west of those mines you will find significant amounts of silver.

Would like to see assay reports on those as to how much of each was found/mined. I'm an equal distance from the Pine Ridge fault as this mine. There are three secondary faults within three to six miles of of my place. Could be an interesting situation.
