ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS

The following statements were made by management at the Annual Meeting, which statements management determined to be materially significant for the Company:

We have solicited interest for potential partnership with a junior mining company regarding the exploration of the Los Juarez property. This solicitation is under review at the present time.

We have purchased 350 tons of antimony ore from our Mexican sources and have processed 60% of this into crude oxide as well as some into finished oxide. The processing experiment currently underway has been promising insofar that it has yielded some percentage of finished oxide in fewer furnacing steps. Clearly, this represents a great price margin advantage.

We received two trisulfide furnaces last week and installation of those is underway.

The website has been revised and the USAC portion was published 28 July 2021. The BRZ portion is under construction.

So far this year we have sold 671,870 lbs of antimony oxide generating a revenue of $2,623,889 dollars and for an average sale price of $3.91/lb of oxide or an equivalent average sale price of $4.71/lb antimony. Antimony prices have come up again, remained high, though volatile. We are sold out until late October at current smelting labor capacity. We are increasing our capacity at our Mexican smelter where labor is not a problem.

So far this year we have sold 5,778 tons of zeolite generating a revenue of $1,235,170 dollars and for an average sale price of $213.77/ton. Gretchen Lawrence, our sales director for zeolite has done miracles keeping customers happy during the installation of the new hammermill, increasing and unifying our prices as a function of product size and between customers, obtaining new customers, and coordinating trucks. Additionally, our team of labor at BRZ has performed excellently.
