  • During the period July 1st to the date of this announcement 176,323 warrants priced at $2.25 and 1,400,000 warrants priced at $2.60 were exercised. Also, 3,464,999 warrants priced at $5.00 and 420,000 warrants priced at $4.00 expired without being exercised.
The Company is continuing to focus on reducing its operating costs at each of its three primary producing silver mines. These improvements in operations are partially a result of the continuous program of replacing old equipment in the mines and mills with new or rebuilt equipment. This ongoing program has begun to show results as can be seen in the financial results ending September 30, 2007. Other important areas of focus have been and continue to be; grade control and mine dilution. These areas generally take the longest to achieve and need to be accomplished in line with equipment upgrades and improvements in mining techniques and standards. As a result of these efforts, the La Parrilla and La Encantada financial results are beginning to show significant signs of improvement. The San Martin is anticipated to begin to show similar improvements by year end.

In addition to improvements in operations anticipated as the three mines mature over the coming quarters, increases in silver production is also expected to continue at each mine as further improvements and expansions of the mills are achieved and as Reserves and Resources increase with the release of updated NI 43-101 reports.

First Majestic is a producing silver company focused in México and is aggressively pursuing its business plan to become a senior silver producer through the development of its existing assets and the pursuit through acquisition of additional assets that contribute to achieving its corporate growth objectives.
