RAPID EXPLORATION TO MINE DEVELOPMENT • A cornerstone of IMPACT Silver’s success is rapid mine development to generate near-term cash flow • Since 2006, IMPACT’s successful team has discovered and built three new mines with two additional mines now under construction EXPLORATION AND MINE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS FLOWCHART: RESEARCH FIELD WORK DRILLING MINE DEVELOPMENT MINE Compile old Surface & Drilling in PRODUCTION mines/ underground phases Mine Planning, AND CASH prospects from sampling, based on Permitting and FLOW historic maps mapping success Construction • Capire (North) More than • Capire • San Ramon • Pilarica 2,700 old Select • Condesa & • Noche mines and areas and • Oscar Cuchara North Buena prospects prospects catalogued for drilling • Carlos Pacheco • Santa Lucia • Chivo to date • Huatecosco First Drill Hole to Production: 12 – 24 Months (Chivo, San Ramon Extensions, Noche Buena)15

ROYAL MINES OF ZACULAPAN TECHNICAL SUMMARYWorking toward becoming a Multimillion Ounce Silver Producer with Multiple Processing Centers 1. Guadalupe Production Centre • Oscar Silver Mine scheduled for production in late 2012 • Current ore feed from San Ramon, Noche Buena and Chivo Mines 1 2. Capire Production Centre • Initial production through 200-tpd pilot plant, scheduled for late 2012, early 2013 • Expansion to full scale plant planned 3. Valle de Oro Gold and Silver Area • Area of many silver veins with gold 3 mineralization at depth • Large drill program underway • Potential site of a third processing plant 2 4 4. Southeast Exploration Area • Currently mapping numerous old mine workings, early stage exploration16

ZACATECAS OPTION AGREEMENT DEFIANCE SILVER CORP (TSX.V:DEF) • IMPACT Silver optioned its Santa Gabriela Processing Plant 200-tpd Santa Gabriela Processing Plant and ten mineral concessions in Zacatecas, Mexico to Defiance Silver for cash and a 16.5% share position • Defiance Silver plans to marry IMPACT’s processing plant with their San Acacio Silver Mine (18M oz silver defined) and begin production in 2013 San Acacio Silver Mine17
