What Silvercorp Metals does

Operates silver-lead-zinc mines in the Ying Mining District in China's Henan province.

Sells concentrate, a metal-rich powder from its mines, to smelters that pay for the metal content less processing charges, so revenue follows silver, lead and zinc prices. It is Canadian-listed but its mines are in China, and it has branched out by buying an Ecuador copper-gold project, Curipamba.
