Yeah exactly same thing silver is the easiest to find, so they found that first aswell, but it's just the first easiest layer of the cake to spot, they will also end up with a massive gold/copper deposit down there aswell.
But there are differences between AZS and ARD, AZS is from surface with thick 40m high grade halo of 200 g/t silver and they looking like seeing well over 100Moz when it's all drilled out, so they will have grades and ounces to justify a stand alone silver operation at current prices.
AZS will likely most likely then farm out the of the deeper gold/copper at a later date to a major and run the near surface silver by themselves operation.
