Apogee Minerals Ltd. is a Canadian mineral exploration and development stage company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol APE. Its strategic focus is advanced stage silver projects in world class silver districts in South America.

The flagship asset is the Pulacayo-Paca property located in the prolific Potosi Silver District of Bolivia. The property includes the historic Pulacayo silver mine, which was the second largest in Bolivian history with past production in excess of 600 million ounces of silver. Apogee has delineated two NI 43-101 resources on the property, Pulacayo and Paca, which total over 60 million ounces of silver. Diamond drilling has been ongoing throughout 2010 and is continuing to expand the deposit at Pulacayo, where a recent preliminary analysis indicated robust economics for the development of high grade resources from underground. Apogee is currently evaluating a number of alternative scenarios to accelerate the Pulacayo deposit to production.
