The OTCQX is a broker-dealer trading platform with rules and listing standards that facilitates trading in over 9000 securities in the United States. The OTCQX is designed to meet the needs of an international public company such as SilverCrest by providing a trading platform in the United States that offers many of the benefits of the traditional U.S. stock exchanges.

SilverCrest Mines Inc. (TSX VENTURE: SVL) is a Mexican precious metals producer with headquarters based in Vancouver, BC. SilverCrest's flagship property is the 100%-owned Santa Elena Mine, which is located 150km northeast of Hermosillo, near Banamichi in the State of Sonora, Mexico. The mine is a high-grade, epithermal gold and silver producer, with an estimated life of mine cash cost of US$8 per ounce of silver equivalent (55:1 Ag:Au).
