Form 10-Q for the Fiscal Quarter ended September 30, 2018

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 13. Plant Acquisition, page 12

1.    We note you entered into a Member Interest and Capital Share Agreement in
August 2018
      to acquire a subsidiary of the sellers which includes an antimony plant,
equipment and
      land located in Reynosa, Mexico and that you accounted for this
transaction as an asset
      acquisition. In addition to the assets acquired, we note you also
received $1.5 million
      from the sellers to "assist in the salvage and transportation costs of
the useable
      equipment" and that you recognized a $1.5 million gain on plant
acquisition during the
      third quarter. Please address the following points:

          Tell us the consideration that you transferred as part of this
arrangement and how you
          determined its cost in accordance with ASC paragraphs 805-50-30-1 and
30-2.

             Identify where you recorded the underlying assets that you
purchased under this
             arrangement and how you determined the amounts recorded.

             Provide further details of the terms of the agreement with the
sellers including those
             related to any obligations you are required to perform as part of
this arrangement and
             any recourse that the sellers may have as a result of
non-performance.

             Tell us how your full recognition of the gain is consistent with
your expectation that
             you will incur $350,000 to $500,000 to finish decommissioning of
the Reynosa
             plant as disclosed at page 20.


        We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for
the accuracy
and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action
or absence of
action by the staff.
