Portage Resources and Fortuna Silver Benefit From Peru's Rich Resources
The Paragon Report Provides Equity Research on Portage Resources & Fortuna Silver Mines
(firmenpresse) - NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 10/27/11 -- Precious metals explorers have been actively expanding operations in Peru for many years. Peru is the world's largest producer of silver, 3rd largest of copper and 5th largest of gold, with gold accounting for roughly one third of Peru's export revenue. The Bedford Report examines the outlook for the Precious Metals Market and provides equity research on Portage Resources (PINKSHEETS: POTG) and Fortuna Silver Mines, Inc. (NYSE: FSM) (TSX: FVI).

According to Business Monitor International (BMI), the Peruvian mining sector is expected to grow by 8.3% in real terms to reach $19 billion in 2011, a slowdown in growth from 15.7% in 2010. Despite falling grades across Peru's mining sector in 2011, BMI forecasts the value of the Peruvian mining industry will grow by an average of 8.5% a year from 2011 to 2015, in light of major expansions across the sector.
Of concern is the modest downturn in precious metal prices. Silver prices have been volatile of late as signs of a strengthening US economy has pushed the dollar up, and taken away the metal's safe haven appeal. Meanwhile, a slowing Asian economy has led to concerns regarding industrial silver demand.
