Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Basis of Presentation	'
	The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, as well as the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2013.
	Certain consolidated financial statement amounts for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 have been reclassified to conform to the 2013 presentation.  These reclassifications had no effect on the net income (loss) or accumulated deficit as previously reported.
	Management estimates their effective tax rate at 39% for the current year.
	For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
	During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred interest expense of $18,022 and $31,829, respectively, of which $14,231 and $29,677, respectively, has been capitalized as part of the cost of construction projects in Mexico.

Net loss per share of common stock:	'
Income (Loss) Per Common Share	'
	Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including warrants to purchase the Company's common stock and convertible preferred stock.  Management has determined that the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013, is not applicable since any additions to outstanding shares related to common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive.
	As of September 30, 2013 and 2012, the potentially dilutive common stock equivalents not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive are as follows:
		For the Nine Months Ended
		September 30,		September 30,
		2013		2012
	Warrants		2,297,167		1,776,917

Notes to Financial Statements	'
Accounts Receivable and Due to Factor	'
	The Company factors designated trade receivables pursuant to a factoring agreement with LSQ Funding Group L.C., an unrelated factor (the “Factor”).  The agreement specifies that eligible trade receivables are factored with recourse. We submit selected trade receivables to the factor, and receive 85% of the face value of the receivable by wire transfer. Upon payment by the customer, we receive the remainder of the amount due from the factor, less a one-time servicing fee of 2% for the receivables factored.  This servicing fee is recorded on the consolidated statement of operations in the period of sale to the factor.
	Trade receivables assigned to the Factor are carried at the original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful accounts.  Under the terms of the recourse provision, the Company is required to reimburse the Factor, upon demand, for factored receivables that are not paid on time.  Accordingly, these receivables are accounted for as a secured financing arrangement and not as a sale of financial assets.  The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management’s regular evaluation of individual customer’s receivables and consideration of a customer’s financial condition and credit history.  Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible.  Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.  Interest is not charged on past due accounts.
	We present the receivables, net of allowances, as current assets and we present the amount potentially due to the Factor as a secured financing in current liabilities.

Other Assets	'
	Soyatal
	Included in Other Assets at September 30, 2013 are credits of approximately $379,000 for advances we have made to the previous Soyatal operator for equipment and antimony ore mill feed which we plan to utilize as an offset for future option payments on the Soyatal property.
	Guadalupe
	In March of 2012 we entered into a supply agreement with Grupo Roga or “Guadalupe” for antimony ore. As of September 30, 2013 we had received approximately 1,725 metric tons of antimony ore under this agreement. In 2012 and 2013 we made advances to Guadalupe to fund their antimony mining operations. The mining, trucking, and milling costs on this ore have exceeded its value by approximately $393,000. As Guadalupe has agreed to deduct these excess costs through future antimony ore purchases and (or) option payments for the Guadalupe property, we have recorded the excess costs as Other Assets at September 30, 2013.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]	'
Commitments and Contingencies	'
	In 2005, a subsidiary of the Company signed an option agreement that gives it the exclusive right to explore and develop the San Miguel I and San Miguel II concessions for an annual payment of $50,000, and an option to purchase payment of $100,000 annually.  Total payments will not exceed $1,430,344, reduced by taxes paid.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and the year ended December 31, 2012, $65,217 and $86,956, respectively, was paid and capitalized as mineral rights in accordance with the Company’s accounting policies.
	From time to time, the Company is assessed fines and penalties by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”). Using appropriate regulatory channels, management may contest these proposed assessments. The Company has not accrued any liabilities as of September 30, 2013 related to such assessments.
	During 2012, the Company negotiated a new credit facility increasing the Company’s lines of credit by $202,000.  As part of this agreement, we have pledged two $101,000 certificates of deposit as collateral.  The increased loan facility allows us access to borrowings at an interest rate of 3.15% for the portion of the credit line used.  At September 30, 2013, we did not have any outstanding line of credit debt.
	In June of 2013, the Company entered into a lease to mine antimony ore from concessions located in the Wadley Mining district in Mexico.  The lease calls for a mandatory term of one year and requires payments of $25,000 per month for the first six months of the term and $30,000 per month for the remaining months of the term.  The lease is renewable each year with a 15 day notice to the lessor, and agreement of terms.

Stockholder's Equity	'
	Issuance of Common Stock for Cash
	During the second quarter of 2013, the Company sold an aggregate of 725,000 of its unregistered common stock to existing stockholders and other parties for $653,604, net of offering costs.  In connection with the sale, 362,500 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock for $1.20 were issued.  The warrants expire on June 28, 2014 and contain a provision that require the Company to make a cash payment to holders of the warrants equal to the Black-Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of the warrant in the event of a Fundamental Transaction.
	Generally accepted accounting principles required the Company to account for the warrants as a derivative liability.  At June 28, 2013, the closing date of the private placement, the Company allocated $108,750 of the cash proceeds, which represented the fair value of the warrants, to the warrants and recorded the amount as a derivative liability.  The fair value of the warrants was estimated, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
	Risk-free interest rate		0.15	%
	Expected dividend Yield		None
	Expected term		one year
	Expected volatility		75.4	%
	Since issuance, the holders of 212,500 warrants have agreed to rescind the cash payment provision that gave rise to the derivative liability, and the Company expects the remainder of the warrant holders to rescind the provision in the near future.  At September 30, 2013, the fair value of the outstanding warrants was calculated at $72,000.
	During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company sold an aggregate of 2,056,334 shares of unregistered common stock to existing stockholders and other parties for $4,711,842.  In connection with the sales of the Company’s common stock, 1,028,167 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at $2.50 per share, and 1,425,982 warrants at $3.50 per share, were issued.  Expenses of $414,661 connected to the issuance of the unregistered shares were deducted from additional paid in capital.
	Issuance of Common Stock for Services
	At December 31, 2011, the Company declared, but did not issue, 95,835 shares of unregistered common stock to be paid to its directors for services, having a fair value of $230,004, based on the current stock price at the date declared.  During the first six months of 2012, the company issued 149,500 shares of unregistered common stock with a fair market value of $358,800 to the Directors as compensation for past and future services. During the first six months of 2012, the Company awarded 39,406 of the remaining 53,665 shares of unregistered common stock to its directors for services, having a fair value of $151,191, based on the current stock price at the date awarded.  6,423 new shares with a fair value of $25,000 were issued to directors who were not board members at December 31, 2011. This expense is classified with general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

Notes to Financial Statements	'
13. Soyatal Purchase Option	'
	At December 31, 2012, the Company recorded a note payable liability based upon the present value of the non-interest bearing payments due Soyatal in connection with an option the Company had to purchase the Soyatal property for $1.5 million. In connection with finalizing the Company’s exercise of its option to purchase the Soyatal property and the pending definitive Purchase and Sale Agreement, management determined that no recourse note payable would be executed and the payments to Soyatal will be recognized as they become due in accordance with the final agreement, and are paid. As a result, the Company’s interest in the Soyatal mineral property reflects only the payments made to date in accordance with the terms of the option agreement. This change in the terms of the agreement resulted in a reversal of the note payable and a corresponding reduction of mineral property assets for $1,067,431 at December 31, 2012. The December 31, 2012 balance sheet has been revised to reflect such. The option agreement calls for a definitive Purchase and Sale Agreement which is expected to be executed during the fourth quarter 2013.
