The Company's doré, as well as the concentrate product produced by the Wharf mine, is refined into gold and silver bullion according to benchmark standards set by the London Bullion Market Association, which regulates the acceptable requirements for bullion traded in the London precious metals markets. The Company then sells its silver and gold bullion to multi-national banks, bullion trading houses, and refiners across the globe. The Company has eleven trading counterparties and the sales of metals to these companies amounted to approximately 74%, 63%, and 72% of total metal sales for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. Generally, the loss of a single bullion trading counterparty would not adversely affect the Company due to the liquidity of the markets and the availability of alternative trading counterparties. The Company's concentrate produced by the Kensington mine is sold to smelters under purchase and sale agreements, and the smelters pay the Company for the gold or silver recovered from the concentrates. The Company currently sells concentrate to three smelters, and sales to these companies amounted to approximately 26%, 37%, and 28% of total metal sales for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. While the loss of any one smelter may have a material adverse effect if alternate smelters are not available, the Company believes that there is sufficient global capacity available to address the loss of a smelter. The following table indicates customers that represent 10% or more of total sales of metal for at least one of the years December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013 (in millions):
