Concentrations
Concentrations	14. Concentrations We generally sell a significant portion of our mineral production to a relatively small number of customers. For the year ended December 31, 2022, most of our consolidated product revenues were attributable to A-Mark Precious Metals and to Asahi Refining, Inc., our current and only two customers as of December 31, 2022. We are not dependent upon any one purchaser and have alternative purchasers readily available at competitive market prices if there is a disruption in services or other events that cause us to search for other ways to sell our production.
