For the year, more than 98% of Sprott's equity and hedge fund Assets

return of 74.73%, while the Sprott Canadian Equity Fund delivered a
return of 57.55%, and the Sprott Small Cap Equity Fund and Sprott Small
Cap Hedge Fund returned 50.32% and 50.27%, respectively.
Sprott's longer-term track records are even more impressive. The 10-year
cumulative return to December 31, 2010 for the Sprott Canadian Equity
Fund was 678%, compared to 89% for the S&P/TSX Composite Total Return
Index. Over the same time period, the Sprott Hedge Fund LP generated a
cumulative return of 713%, compared to -37% for the S&P 500 Total
Return Index in Canadian dollars.
"We are extremely pleased with the performance delivered by Sprott Asset
Management's investment managers in 2010. We have an outstanding team,
comprised of independent thinkers, united by a common goal - delivering
superior long-term returns to our investors," said Peter Grosskopf,
Chief Executive Officer of Sprott Inc. "During the year, we added to
the team in order to provide our investors with a wider range of
investment options, and we are very proud of the broad and deep group
contributing to these outstanding results."
Sprott's best-in-class managers and unique funds are increasingly being
