All sampling costs shall be shared equally between Buyer and Seller.

The final wet weight shall be the wet weight measured upon Delivery of the Concentrate at the Warehouse under the supervision of an internationally recognized supervision company less 0.35%. The moisture thus determined shall be final for settlement purposes.

(b) Sampling Procedure:

(i) For Moisture Determination:

Each trimmed truck of approximately 35 (thirty-five) wmt, will be sampled in 5 (five) positions, spread evenly across the surface of the truck, using a manual, twin-bladed posthole digger.

Each increment to be taken from the full depth of the concentrate incorporating Concentrate from the full vertical column. The 5 (five) increments to be combined to

form a single sub-sample, used to represent the moisture content of the trimmed truck.

The sub-sample to be kept in a well closed plastic bag, impervious to moisture and processed as soon as possible. The complete moisture sample would be kept in a sealed cooler and sent to a lab jointly selected by Buyer and Seller at the end of the shift (when liberated by the Warehouse), the lab would then break the seal on the sample bag, quickly mix the sample on a steel table and then take duplicate 1 (one) kilogram samples using the increment method for moisture determination. These samples would be dried at 105 (one hundred and five) degrees Celsius for a minimum of 8 (eight) hours until constant weight is obtained. The average of the 2 (two) results obtained will be reported for moisture content. The moisture thus determined shall be final for settlement purposes.

(ii) For Quality:

· Each truck will be sampled once discharged and homogenized;

· The Concentrate will be extended with a pay loader;

· After extending the Concentrate, the bottom of the shovel of the pay loader will be used to break up any agglomeration formed due to moisture content and then the Concentrate will be scooped back into the pile. This process will be repeated until all the agglomerations appear to be broken up;

· The Concentrate will be formed into a bed between 30 (thirty) to 40 (forty) centimeters high;

· A grid will be then formed and 30/40 (thirty/ forty) increments will be taken by means of a sampling spear from the center of each square with sampling spear reaching the full depth of the Concentrate. A sample of about 80 (eighty) kilograms will be obtained per each truck and passed by mesh 1/8” (one eight inch). The sample will be spread out on an stainless steel panel, the Concentrate will be spread out until the Concentrate will be approximately 5 (five) centimeters in height which was divided in square sections of about 10 centimeters per side, from which will be taken increments with a JIS (Japanese Industrial Standards) 5 (five) shovel and placed into 4 (four) stainless steel drying tray filling the trays one by one until each tray contained approximately 1 (one) kilogram of Concentrate which will be dried to be prepared (pulverized) to 100% (one hundred percent) -140 (one hundred and forty) mesh;

· The unused Concentrate left over from the sample reduction will be returned to the stockpile.

· 2 complete sets of sealed samples for Seller.

· 2 complete sets of sealed samples for Buyer.

· 2 complete sets of sealed samples for Buyer’s receiver.

· 2 complete sets to be kept by independent supervision company for umpire purposes.

Each sample shall be prepared in the internationally acceptable manner with a minimum sample weight of 250 (two hundred and fifty) grams or as otherwise mutually agreed by the parties.

12. Assaying:

(a) Assays for lead, gold and silver contents shall be made independently by Seller and Buyer from the samples obtained in accordance with Section 11 above and results of such assays shall be exchanged simultaneously by airmail or courier or another mutually agreed manner within 60 (sixty) calendar days after arrival of the Concentrate at Buyer’s designated Warehouse. The assays for the Payables i.e. lead, silver and gold shall be exchanged on a lot-by-lot- basis and for Penalties (if any) on a composite basis. Determination for gold and silver assays shall be made in accordance with fire assay methods corrected for slag loss and cupel absorption and losses for evaporation.

(b) If the difference between Seller’s and Buyer’s assay results is not more than the following splitting limits, then the exact mean of the two results shall be taken as the agreed assay for final settlement:

Lead:	[***].
Gold:	[***]/dmt of Concentrate.
Silver:	[***]/dmt of Concentrate.

(c) If the difference is more than the above splitting limits, both parties shall consult in order to reach an acceptable settlement. In case no agreement has been reached between Seller and Buyer, an umpire assay shall be made by one of the following mutually agreed laboratories to be rotated on a lot-by-lot basis:
