FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This presentation contains “forward‐looking statements” within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation and the United States Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward‐looking
statements concern the Company’s anticipated results and developments in the Company’s operations in future periods, planned exploration and development of its properties, plans related to its
business and other matters that may occur in the future. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on expectations of future performance, including silver and gold
production and planned work programs. Statements concerning reserves and mineral resource estimates may also constitute forward‐looking statements to the extent that they involve estimates of the
mineralization that will be encountered if the property is developed and, in the case of mineral reserves, such statements reflect the conclusion based on certain assumptions that the mineral deposit can
be economically exploited.
Forward‐looking statements are subject to a variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual events or results to differ from those expressed or implied by the
forward‐looking statements, including, without limitation: risks related to precious and base metal price fluctuations; risks related to fluctuations in the currency markets (particularly the Mexican
peso, Canadian dollar and United States dollar); risks related to the inherently dangerous activity of mining, including conditions or events beyond our control, and operating or technical difficulties in
mineral exploration, development and mining activities; uncertainty in the Company’s ability to raise financing and fund the exploration and development of its mineral properties; uncertainty as to actual
capital costs, operating costs, production and economic returns, and uncertainty that development activities will result in profitable mining operations; risks related to reserves and mineral resource figures
being estimates based on interpretations and assumptions which may result in less mineral production under actual conditions than is currently estimated and to diminishing quantities or grades of
mineral reserves as properties are mined; risks related to governmental regulations and obtaining necessary licenses and permits; risks related to the business being subject to environmental laws and
regulations which may increase costs of doing business and restrict our operations; risks related to mineral properties being subject to prior unregistered agreements, transfers, or claims and other defects
in title; risks relating to inadequate insurance or inability to obtain insurance; risks related to potential litigation; risks related to the global economy; risks related to the Company’s status as a foreign
private issuer in the United States; risks related to all of the Company’s properties being located in Mexico and El Salvador, including political, economic, social and regulatory instability; and risks related to
officers and directors becoming associated with other natural resource companies which may give rise to conflicts of interests.
Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in the forward‐looking
statements. The Company’s forward‐looking statements are based on beliefs, expectations and opinions of management on the date the statements are made. For the reasons set forth above, investors
should not place undue reliance on forward‐looking statements. he information contained herein is nota a substitute for detailed investigation or analysis. No securities commission or regulatory authority
has reviewed the accuracy or adequacy of the information presented.
All monetary figures are expressed in United States dollars unless otherwise specified.

11.  Unavailable Executive Management for onsite Critical Decision-Making.
 Lack of Ownership in Company or Project by Executive Management.
 Pressure by Executive Management to show robust economics from Consultants.
 Pressure for Consultants to show robust economics to keep their jobs and Project.
 Using the wrong or disinterested Construction Management team, shortage of
qualified engineers.
 Bypass components of Detailed Engineering and Construction to “just get the mine
into production to take advantage of metal prices and worry about fixing it later.”
 Lack of attention to Increasing Costs in the market. No onsite Cost Controls or
Timely “Red Flags” to Executive Management.
 Underestimation of Owners Costs.
 Bad Timing in the Materials Market for Cost Inflation.
 Underestimation of Political and Social impacts.
 Complex (location, infrastructure, mine plan, metallurgy) Projects increase capital
risk and potential cost overruns.
 Larger Projects have higher capital risk and attention to Details and Ownership.
“Like a plane crash, its never just one reason for the catastrophe!” 11

12.  Available experienced Executive Management for onsite Critical Decision-Making.
 Ownership in Company by Executive Management.
 Executive Management was conservative/realistic in its approach with Consultants.

 Strict Cost Controls and continuous Executive Management reviews to red flag
problems with immediate resolution.
 Conservative on Owners Costs.
 No upfront cost emphasis on Political and Social impacts, friendly location.
 Kept Santa Elena “simple and systematic” to decrease capital risk.
 Smaller Project, lower Capital Risk.

13. Your Personal Check List;
 Ownership in Company by Executive Management, onsite decision-making.

performance, solid contract.
 Detailed Engineering consultants with good track record for project size.
 Strict Cost Controls policy and continuous Executive Management reviews.
 Know upfront costs on Political and Social impacts.
 Kept it simple and systematic to decrease capital risk. Consider starting out smaller
and grow from cash flow – part of Santa Elena’s success (“SilverCrest Model”).
 Good Timing in Materials Costs decreases (low in the market).
 Remember “Not all ounces or pounds are created equal”. Santa Elena has higher
net cash flow then many mines that are much larger.
