For the first six months of 2013, silver production was 347,503 ounces (11% above budget) and gold production was 14,688 ounces (11% below budget). We are starting to mine the planned higher ore grades from open pit so anticipate increased ounces produced in the second half of 2013. Based on continually exceeding forecasted silver ounces produced each month, we are increasing our annual silver production guidance from 625,000 ounces to 675,000 ounces. We are maintaining our annual gold production guidance of 33,000 ounces for 2013".
Management has responded to the recent sharp decline in metal prices by re-enforcing ongoing disciplined cost and capital reduction measures to maintain 2013 cash cost at or below US$8.50 per silver equivalent ounce enabling the Company to complete all major capital expenditures associated with the Santa Elena Expansion.
Investorideas.com Newswire
(1) Silver equivalence is based on market spot prices per ounce of silver and gold at the quarter end dates. All numbers are rounded.
(2) Average strip ratio for 2013, is projected at 2.7:1. Q1, 2013 strip ratio of 4.27:1 was higher than projected due to accelerating waste removal.
Q2 2013 Santa Elena Expansion Update:
  • As of June 30, 2013, approximately 65% of the budgeted 2013 capital cost of US$65M has been committed. The Santa Elena Expansion is currently on time and budget with scheduled mill start up in January 2014.
  • Approximately 2,000 metres of underground development have been completed (project to date) including a crosscut on the 625 metre level that has intersected and exposed the deposit where the exploration model projected its location. A crosscut (hanging wall to footwall) to expose the ore body has been completed showing a mineralized true thickness of 13 metres with a chip - channel sampling grade (uncut) of 3.4 gpt Au and 718.8 gpt Ag which is consistent with the Reserve model. Development has been driven on the footwall contact of mineralization for an estimated 70 metres in preparation for 2014 production. Muck and chip samples from development in mineralization have graded up to 11.1 gpt Au and 2,690 gpt Ag. Approximately 5,000 tonnes of ore development material has been crushed and delivered to the leach pad for partial metal recovery with anticipated reprocessing through the new process facility, once completed.
  • In May 2013, significant water was encountered underground while doing ore development on the 625 metre level. Pumping volumes to date are manageable with mine development continuing. A hydrology study has been implemented to assess potential long-term water volumes which may be considered an asset for desert operating conditions
  • .
  • On-site construction of the 3,000 tonne per day mill is well underway with earthworks complete, concrete for major foundations poured and CCD tank and thickener construction near completion. Major equipment has been delivered to site including; new cone crushers and generators (see attached photo dated July 6, 2013: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/886966.jpg and refer to www.silvercrestmines.com for additional construction photos.)

Gartner also noted in its report in April, "As India plays catch up with the rest of the world in terms of mobile broadband adoption, telecom operators need to think of growing the top line through innovative services. Further rural expansion of mobile services will come at a cost. In India, innovation in utility apps that help bring efficiencies in a consumer’s life will bring in sustained revenue and will be relatively more difficult to replicate by new entrants. While social and video apps are doing extremely well in India, Ms. Verma said it is time to look beyond these and deliver apps that can have a sustained business model. Operators need to insert themselves into the value chain of these new apps and services. "

Bullish Future for Solar says IEA; Solar Stocks to Watch: LDK, XSNX, TSL, YGE

New York, NY - July 15, 2013 (Investorideas.com renewable energy stocks newswire) Investorideas.com, a research portal specializing in investing ideas for independent investors, issues a trading alert for solar stocks following a bullish trading session for the sector and a recent report from the IEA that shows the rapid global advancement of renewable energy as a cost competitive choice.

In an overall strong day in the market, solar stocks closed up significantly in Monday’s trading session, some with double digit gains. Chinese solar stocks saw some of the biggest gains following headlines that China State Council said it has plans to build 35 GW of solar by 2015.
Factoring into investor sentiment, the International Energy Agency (IEA) reported in late June in its second annual Medium-Term Renewable Energy Market Report (MTRMR), that despite a difficult economic context, renewable power is expected to increase by 40% in the next five years. Renewables are now the fastest-growing power generation sector and will make up almost a quarter of the global power mix by 2018, up from an estimated 20% in 2011. The share of non-hydro sources such as wind, solar, bioenergy and geothermal in total power generation will double, reaching 8% by 2018, up from 4% in 2011 and just 2% in 2006.
According to the report," renewables are becoming cost-competitive in a wider set of circumstances. For example, wind competes well with new fossil-fuel power plants in several markets, including Brazil, Turkey and New Zealand. Solar is attractive in markets with high peak prices for electricity, for instance, those resulting from oil-fired generation. Decentralised solar photovoltaic generation costs can be lower than retail electricity prices in a number of countries."
The report also noted in relation to China solar stocks, "Led by China, non-OECD countries are expected to account for two-thirds of the global increase in renewable power generation between now and 2018. Such rapid deployment is expected to more than compensate for slower growth and smooth out volatility in other areas, notably Europe and the US.”
LDK Solar Co., Ltd. (NYSE LDK) closed at $1.75, up $ 0.31 or 21.53% on over 6 Million shares. The stock had a day high of $1.77.
Investorideas.com Newswire XSUNX Inc. (OTCBB: XSNX) closed at .011 on over 500,000 shares The CA based Company is a developer of CIGSolar®, a patent-pending technology for the mass production of CIGS solar cells that offers a capital-efficient, low-cost alternative to the use of silicon solar cells.
Investorideas.com Newswire Trina Solar Limited (NYSE: TSL) ended the day at $7.74, gaining 0.87 or 12.66%.
Investorideas.com Newswire Yingli Green Energy Holding Co. Ltd. (NYSE:YGE) closed at $4.16, spiking 0.42 or 11.23% and continued gains in after hours trading.
Investorideas.com Newswire Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: ASTI) had notable gains, closing at $1.12, up 0.09 or 8.74%
First Solar, Inc. (NasdaqGS: FSLR) closed at $50.27, moving up 2.62 a share or 5.50%, with a high of $51.
About the IEA
The International Energy Agency is an autonomous organisation which works to ensure reliable, affordable and clean energy for its 28 member countries and beyond. Founded in response to the 1973/4 oil crisis, the IEA’s initial role was to help countries co-ordinate a collective response to major disruptions in oil supply through the release of emergency oil stocks to the markets. While this continues to be a key aspect of its work, the IEA has evolved and expanded. It is at the heart of global dialogue on energy, providing reliable and unbiased research, statistics, analysis and recommendations.

The online education industry is still in its infancy compared to the potential it represents down the road as China’s hunger for education explodes..
A recent article in Techcrunch.comn said, “ education institutions are now struggling with demand, especially in fast-growing markets like China. Schools there literally can’t build enough buildings to put people in their colleges, he said, and are trying to figure out how to handle issues like students that are sometimes seven hours away from their nearest physical campus. Online education means you can scale immensely without worrying about growing the physical plant and those costs, and it also means students need only a phone to participate, lowering costs immensely."

Chinese students are becoming less fixated on tests. Parents are increasingly sending their children to English-immersion camps abroad rather than classrooms. Today's children are more comfortable with e-learning."

How do you say "Apple" in 2000 Languages?

Point Roberts, WA, New York, NY - July 15, 2013 (Investorideas.com newswire) Investorideas.com, providing global investing ideas in leading sectors including tech, features a close- up look at a privately held software company, Linguist's Software, based in Edmonds, WA. Over a 30 year period, Linguist's Software has developed fonts and keyboard software for over 2000 languages that may be a key factor in opening up the world to the internet and mobile devices.

It may takes years to perfect translation for languages, but having software for native language localization and input to the rest of the world immediately, is a significant first step.
The path to globalization is potentially available to mobile users and internet users around the world in their own native languages. Today most software and Internet platforms provide limited keyboard input for only 50-80 languages.
Dr. Philip Payne, the founder of Linguist's Software Inc. http://www.linguistsoftware.com/ , started his company 30 years ago out of a love of language unaware of the advancements and leaps in technology that lay ahead and how his software could literally change the world.
He was interviewed in an article in the New York Times in 1994 discussing how excited he was that his software was available to Mac users. At the time of the interview his software was available for over 280 languages and the Apple iPhone had not yet been invented. Fast forward to today and he provides fonts and input for over 2000 languages, and the iPhone has revolutionized mobile in a way no one could have imagined in 1994.
Steve Jobs said he did not build his company for the money, it was to build a company that would endure and create great products . Dr. Philip Payne's love of language has resulted in a company that is still here 30 years after its beginning and is the only one of its kind providing fonts and keyboard input for anywhere near this many languages.
Currently 2.5 billion people use the internet, mostly in Chinese, Japanese, and European languages. Dr. Philip Payne's software opens the door to new markets through native language access to 4 billion more global users.
So how do you say "global opportunity" in 2000 languages? What is a buyer willing to pay to be the first worldwide communications company? What is the value of owning fonts and keyboard input software for over 2000 languages to reach these new customers whose native language input is not currently supported by computers, smartphones, and the Internet? What is the value of having access to billions of new customers?
Ken Kinkel, CEO & President of C·M&A (www.CorpMA.com) is trying to answer just that as he represents Dr. Payne's exit strategy and retirement from Linguist's Software Inc.
Ken says, "Google's Eric Schmidt is saying everyone will be on the net by 2020. But what can they do now that they are locked out of a billion customers in China? This is why Google (WSJ) is laying fiber in Africa, to reach a billion potential users who are isolated in remote areas. But, we wonder where will they get the fonts and keyboard input for over 1540 native languages for these Africans? Or any of the other unique native languages Google needs for another billion in India and the Middle East. On average it takes over 1 man year per language to develop the best localization keyboard and native font software. Does Google think they can create all of these fast enough for over 2000 global languages?
But if a competitor decides to get there first, by buying the fonts and keyboard input for these languages that are already completed and available today, then what? Now we have a new leader, and perhaps not Google, then who, Baidu?"
There is big money in the language software sector. This Intellectual Property (IP) is the first important step towards getting everyone online to eventually lead us to worldwide language translation.
According to Research and Markets new report "Language Translation Software: Market Shares, Strategies, and Forecasts, Language Translation Software: Markets will reach $123.1 Billion by 2019
Worldwide Machine Translation markets at $1.6 billion in 2012 are anticipated to grow to $6.9 billion by 2019. Growth is a result of the inexorable trend toward outreach to the entire world by every enterprise. As the enterprises achieve a global presence in 177 countries, they will first need native language localization to expect to do business and eventually need automated software translation to achieve a global footprint.
TransPerfect is a family of companies providing global business services in over 170 languages. The $300 million translation services provider based in Manhattan, NY made Crain's list of fastest-growing companies in 2012.
As Dr. Payne enters the next phase of his life he is leaving a legacy that will last past his lifetime. He will never see all of the endless possibilities and applications of his software and how it will impact the world.
In the 1994 NY Times interview it noted, "Dr. Payne says he didn't shout ‘ Eureka' that day in 1984. But after a decidedly amateurish labor amid bytes, bits and pixels, the apparition of the Greek letter rho on the black-and-white screen of his Macintosh computer came pretty close to an epiphany."
Imagine if his software is used on mobile applications around the globe? I think he would say " Eureka".
Dr. Philip Payne, the founder and president of Linguist's Software, Inc., is a specialist in New Testament Studies. (Ph.D. The University of Cambridge). He is well known for his studies on New Testament Textual Criticism, the Parables of Jesus, and Man and Woman in the Teachings of Paul. He and his wife Nancy were missionaries in Japan with the Evangelical Free Church, where they ministered to students in the Kyoto Christian Studies Center and lectured on New Testament in various Japanese Seminaries. They have three children David, Kimiko, and Brendan.
NY Times article link :
http://www.nytimes.com/1994/05/22/business/technology-for-mac-users-software-for-typing-in-tongues.html
The right global company will have to decide how they want to unleash the rest of the languages to the world, Dr. Payne is blessed to have contributed. He looks forward to a future where global information exchange is possible, and knows his software will rapidly set new communication standards, that will eventually connect all of humanity to the web.

Mining Stock Alert: SilverCrest (TSX.V: SVL) (NYSE MKT: SVLC) Arranges $40 Million Credit Facility with Scotiabank

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - July 12, 2013 (Investorideas.com Mining Stocks Newswire) SilverCrest Mines Inc. (TSX.V:SVL) ( NYSE MKT: SVLC) ("SilverCrest" or the "Company") announces that it has entered into a three year US$40 million secured corporate credit facility (the "Facility") with The Bank of Nova Scotia ("Scotiabank"). The credit limit available under the Facility will reduce by US$10 million on each of July 11, 2014 and July 11, 2015, and will mature on July 11, 2016, subject to a one year extension of these dates by mutual agreement. The Facility is to be used for general corporate purposes and to complete the Santa Elena Mine Expansion ("Expansion") which will release operational cash flow for other corporate purposes. The Expansion at Santa Elena includes development of the underground mine and a new 3,000 tonnes per day processing plant. The Facility is principally secured by a pledge of the Company’s equity interests in its material subsidiaries, including Nusantara de Mexico S.A. de C.V., and SilverCrest de Mexico S.A. de C.V., and their assets. Depending on the Company’s total indebtedness to EBITDA ratio, the interest rate margin on the Facility will, at the Company’s election, range from either 3.00% to 4.25% over LIBOR, or 2.00% to 3.25% over Scotiabank’s Base Rate in Canada. The availability of the Facility is subject to customary conditions precedent and qualitative and quantitative covenants and the release of existing security held by Macquarie Bank Limited. Until all security for the Facility has been registered in Mexico, the amount available under the Facility will be limited to US$15 million.

As a result of the increase in metal production afforded by the Expansion, the Santa Elena Mine is expected to generate additional operating cash-flow once the new plant is fully-operational in the first half of 2014. This increase in cash flow should enable the Company to continue funding its capital and exploration projects from operating cash flow.
J. Scott Drever, Chairman and CEO stated: “We are pleased to establish this relationship with an institution of the calibre of Scotiabank. At current precious metals prices, we are confident that our financial situation will enable us to complete the major capital expenditures associated with the Santa Elena Expansion. This Facility strengthens our overall financial position and will free up cash flow to enable us to pursue other corporate opportunities for growth.”
SilverCrest Mines Inc. (TSX-V: SVL; NYSE MKT: SVLC) is a Canadian precious metals producer headquartered in Vancouver, BC. SilverCrest’s flagship property is the 100%-owned Santa Elena Mine, located 150 km northeast of Hermosillo, near Banamichi in the State of Sonora, México. The mine is a high-grade, epithermal silver and gold producer, with an estimated life of mine cash cost of US$8 per ounce of silver equivalent (55:1 Ag: Au). SilverCrest anticipates that the 2,500 tonnes per day open pit heap leach facility at the Santa Elena mine should recover approximately 625,000 ounces of silver and 33,000 ounces of gold in 2013. Major expansion and construction of a 3000 tonnes per day conventional mill facility is underway to significantly increase metals production at the Santa Elena Mine (open pit and underground) by 2014. Exploration programs continue to make new discoveries at Santa Elena and also have rapidly advanced the definition of a large polymetallic deposit at the La Joya property in Durango State with stated resources nearing 200 million ounces of Ag equivalent.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any statements as to matters that are not of historic fact are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on HII's current expectations, estimates and projections about HII, its industry, its management's beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, and include statements regarding estimated capital expenditures, future operational and activity expectations, international growth, and anticipated financial performance in 2013. No assurance can be given that such expectations, estimates or projections will prove to have been correct. Whenever possible, these "forward-looking statements" are identified by words such as "expects," "believes," "anticipates" and similar phrases.
Readers are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict, including, but not limited to: risks that HII will be unable to achieve its financial, capital expenditure and operational projections, including quarterly and annual projections of revenue and/or operating income and risks that HII's expectations regarding future activity levels, customer demand, and pricing stability may not materialize (whether for HII as a whole or for geographic regions and/or business segments individually); risks that fundamentals in the U.S. oil and gas markets may not yield anticipated future growth in HII's businesses, or could further deteriorate or worsen from the recent market declines, and/or that HII could experience further unexpected declines in activity and demand for its hydraulic frac related water transfer business, its safety consultancy business or its generator and related equipment rental service businesses; risks relating to HII's ability to implement technological developments and enhancements; risks relating to compliance with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, as well as actions by governmental and regulatory authorities; risks that HII may be unable to achieve the benefits expected from acquisition and disposition transactions, and risks associated with integration of the acquired operations into HII's operations; risks, in responding to changing or declining market conditions, that HII may not be able to reduce, and could even experience increases in, the costs of labor, fuel, equipment and supplies employed and used in HII's businesses; risks relating to changes in the demand for or the price of oil and natural gas; risks that HII may not be able to execute its capital expenditure program and/or that any such capital expenditure investments, if made, will not generate adequate returns; and other risks affecting HII's ability to maintain or improve operations, including its ability to maintain prices for services under market pricing pressures, weather risks, and the impact of potential increases in general and administrative expenses.
Because such statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside of HII's control, HII's actual results and performance may differ materially from the results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Other important risk factors that may affect HII's business, results of operations and financial position are discussed in its most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, recent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, recent Current Reports on Form 8-K and in other Securities and Exchange Commission filings. Unless otherwise required by law, HII also disclaims any obligation to update its view of any such risks or uncertainties or to announce publicly the result of any revisions to the forward-looking statements made here. However, readers should review carefully reports and documents that HII files periodically with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Solar Energy Stock News; First ever CIGS PV Roadmap Released; CIGS Solar Stocks to Watch

New York, NY, Point Roberts, WA - July 11, 2013 (Investorideas.com renewable energy stocks newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investing ideas in leading sectors including renewable energy stocks, reports on the first ever CIGS PV Roadmap released by the U.S. Photovoltaic Manufacturing Consortium (PVMC) and the potential for related CIGS solar stocks for investors.

For investors unfamiliar with CIGS, it's a semiconductor material made from the raw materials of copper, indium, gallium, and selenium and has the highest conversion efficiency of any thin-film solar cell.
CIGS solar stocks to watch include XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) , Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ASTI), Solar Thin Films, Inc. (OTC: SLTZ), Solar Frontier subsidiary of Showa Shell Sekiyu K.K. (TYO: 5002) and TSMC Solar , a wholly-owned subsidiary of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, Inc. (NYSE:TSM). Solar Frontier is the world's largest CIGS manufacturer.
The U.S. Photovoltaic Manufacturing Consortium (PVMC), an industry-led consortium for cooperation amongst industry, university, and government partners to accelerate the development, commercialization, manufacturing, field testing and deployment of next-generation solar photovoltaic (PV) has released its first-ever U.S. CIGS PV Roadmap report.
According to their press release, "Photovoltaics and especially thin-film PV are again at a tipping point," said Larry Kazmerski, co-chair of the U.S. CIGS PV Roadmap. "We want PV to be a substantial part of the world's energy portfolio and our efforts with this roadmap are aimed to help make CIGS thin films a significant part of that solar success."
XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) says its processing technology, which they call CIGSolar®, focuses on the mass production of thin-film CIGS solar cells utilizing a proprietary multi-area thermal deposition process to minimize processing defects to create highly uniform CIGS films. The cells match silicon solar cell dimensions and could provide a low-cost alternative to the use of silicon solar cells. According to XsunX, Inc.CEO Tom Djokovich. “What is unique to CIGS is that it offers the opportunity to match or exceed the conversion efficiencies of silicon and can cost less to manufacture. The silicon industry benefits from about 30-years of incremental improvements while we are just getting going with CIGS, and this is where the real excitement in CIGS lies - the industry has so much untapped potential.”
TSMC Solar , a wholly-owned subsidiary of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, Inc. (NYSE:TSM).announced in June, confirmation by TUV SUD that its latest commercial-sized (1.09 m2) CIGS champion module has achieved 15.7% module total area efficiency. The new champion module improves on TSMC Solar's previous 15.1% world record set in January this year. The module was produced using the current manufacturing equipment and materials at the company's manufacturing facility in Taichung, Taiwan.
For investors following the solar sector the take -away is CIGS will be playing a key role in the future of solar efficiency and its overall success .
