Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | In 2005, Antimonio de Mexico, S. A. (“AM”) signed an option agreement that gives AM the exclusive right to explore and develop the San Miguel I and San Miguel II concessions for annual payments. Total payments will not exceed $1,430,344, reduced by taxes paid. During the year ended 2016 $65,000 was paid and capitalized as mineral rights in accordance with the Company’s accounting policies. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company has made all of the required payments under the agreement. In June of 2013, the Company entered into a lease to mine antimony ore from concessions located in the Wadley Mining district in Mexico. The lease calls for a mandatory term of one year and requires payments of $10,000 plus IVA tax of $1,600 per month. The lease is renewable each year with a 15 day notice to the lessor, and agreement of terms. The lease was renewed in June of 2017. From time to time, the Company is assessed fines and penalties by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”). Using appropriate regulatory channels, management may contest these proposed assessments. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company has no accruals relating to such assessments.
