<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">During the second quarter, the government of China continued
to take steps to improve the environment by ensuring that industries, such as chemicals, mining, and natural gas operate in a
manner that maximizes safety and minimizes damage to the environment. These government regulations required a substantial amount
of work from the company and its competitors. &nbsp;We believe that a large percentage of the factories and mines may not receive
the required approvals to reopen. However, the government believes this is the only way to ensure the future health and safety
of its residents.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In the second quarter, the company began production in Factories
#1 and #7.&nbsp; Because these factories had new equipments, the company began production at a very low level to ensure that the
new equipment was functioning correctly. During the quarter, the company tested all of the new equipment and found minimal issues.
During the third quarter, the company intends to increase production. It expects to achieve full production in these factories
by the end of the year. With the permanent closing of factories #3, #4, and #11, total production capacity has declined from 42,808
to 31,506 tonnes. However, Factories #1 and #7 have annual production capacity of 13,667 tonnes, which&nbsp; equals 43.4% of our
total capacity. &nbsp;For the three months ending June 2019, our utilization ratio for all of our remaining factories was 18%.
The gross profit margin for the bromine segment was 53%. The crude salt segment has a negative gross profit margin of 6%. Natural
gas, which was in a testing phase, also had a negative gross profit margin.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">During the first six months of 2019, the company invested $39,596,434
in property, plant, and equipment. The major portion of this investment was for the new drilled bromine wells to increase the productivity
of facilities to assure the level of profitability in the future and was not related to the rectification processes.</P>

combination of Factories #5 and #7.) We have completed the rectification on our remaining factories, #2, #8, #9, #10, and #4 (previously
called the subdivision of factory #1). We do not expect any further rectification to be performed currently. The remaining issues
for those factories relate to project approval, planning approval, land use rights approval, and the environmental protection assessment.
We cannot determine the timing for the approvals of the other factories. However, we have been working closely with the government
and believe we have taken all of the steps needed to obtain final approvals.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The price of bromine remains at very high levels. At the current
time, the price is approximately RMB 33,000 per tonne include VAT. The closure of many mines and the decline in the price of the
RMB vs. other currencies should keep the price at elevated levels. The company continues to believe that the bromine and crude
salt business will become profitable.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We are waiting for government approval for our new chemical
plant. To date, we have invested $10,925,081 for a 50-year lease of a parcel of land and the design of the new chemical factory.
&nbsp;While we are confident we will receive approval to build this factory, we cannot provide any guidance about the timing of

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">On May 29,2019, the Company received a verbal notice from the
government of Tianbao Town, Daying County, Sichuan Province, that the company will be required to obtain project approval for its
well, including the natural gas and brine water project and approvals for safety production inspection, environmental protection
assessment &nbsp;and related land issues. Upon receipt of the notice, the company halted trial production of its natural gas well
in Daying County.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company has been working with the local government in Tianbao
Town and Daying County to meet the new provincial regulations. The local and county governments have been very supportive, but
the Company still needs provincial approval. The Company is confident that this approval will be obtained. In addition, the Company
believes that the approval will provide the ability to drill more than one well. However, at this point in time, there is no way
of knowing when all of the approvals will be received, and production will recommence.</P>
