("MTI") is a resource- and technology-based company that develops, produces and markets on a worldwide basis a broad range of specialty mineral, mineral-based and synthetic mineral products and supporting systems and services.&#160; This Form SD is filed by MTI pursuant to Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the period from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017 (the "Reporting Period").</div>

<div><br>
</div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; TEXT-ALIGN: justify; TEXT-INDENT: 18.75pt">Under Rule 13p-1, MTI is required to determine whether any conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of a product it manufactures or contracts to manufacture and, if so, to conduct, in good faith, a "reasonable country of origin inquiry" that is reasonably designed to determine whether any of those conflict minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (the "Covered Countries") or is from recycled or scrap sources.&#160; The Securities and Exchange Commission defines conflict minerals as columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin, and tungsten, and any other mineral or its derivative determined by the U.S. Secretary of State to be financing conflict in a Covered Country ("Conflict Minerals").</div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; TEXT-ALIGN: justify; TEXT-INDENT: 18.75pt">MTI conducted an evaluation of its product lines sold during the Reporting Period and determined that its Pyroid&#174; PG HT thermal management material product ("Pyroid Product"), which is sold in small lot production quantities, contains small amounts of gold that is necessary to the functionality of the Pyroid Product.&#160; In addition, MTI determined that its CETSEAL&#174; and HYDROFIX&#174; products ("Environmental and Building Materials Products"), which it contracts to manufacture, use small amounts of tin that is necessary to the functionality of the Environmental and Building Materials Products.&#160; Other than the foregoing, MTI does not believe any of its other products manufactured (or contracted by MTI to be manufactured) and sold in the Reporting Period contained any Conflict Minerals.</div>
