*Silver production was marginally down 9% in 2010 because the Company reduced the cut-off grade of the ore mined due to higher silver prices
• Strong organic growth marked by rapid mine development with first drill hole to
mine production in less than 24 months
• Currently building two mines: underground Oscar mine and open-pit Capire mine
• 2011 direct cost per tonne sold averaged $70 per tonne or $9 per ounce of silver net

• Initial production through 200-tpd pilot plant
• Multiple gold and silver targets in district
3. Valle De Oro Gold & Silver Area
• Area of many silver veins with gold and
3
copper mineralization at depth
• Large drill program currently underway
• Potential site of a third processing plant 2 4
4. Southeast Exploration Area
• Currently mapping numerous old
mine workings, early stage exploration
16
18. RAPID EXPLORATION
TO MINE DEVELOPMENT
• A cornerstone of IMPACT’s success is rapid mine development to generate near-term
cash flow
• Since 2006, IMPACT’s team has successfully discovered and built three new mines with
two additional mines now under construction

22. FUTURE PLANS AND GOALS
2012
• 2012 is a transition year as IMPACT builds two new mines, laying the
foundation for the next phase of profitable silver production growth
• Continue aggressive exploration to accelerate organic growth at the
Royal Mines of Zacualpan
• With over $23 million of unallocated cash and consistent production
earnings, pursue accretive merger and acquisition opportunities of
near term production or cash-strapped precious metals companies
worldwide
2013 to 2015
• Double silver production with expansion of Capire Production Center
• Continue exploration and development of both silver zones and deep
gold zones within the gold-rich Valle de Oro zone
21
23. WHY IMPACT SILVER?
• Five years of increasing
revenues and earnings
• Strong cash position & zero
debt
• Expanding silver production
with two new mines
commencing production within
the next five months
• Aggressive exploration for gold
and silver in the Valle de Oro
• Tight share structure and small
