Emergency Overview: Products, listed above in 1.1, as sold or distributed by Vista Metals Inc are not hazardous per OSA GHS 29 CFR 1910, 1915, 1926. However, individual customer processes, (such as welding, sawing, brazing, grinding, sanding, abrasive blasting and machining) may result in the formation of fumes, dust (combustible or otherwise), and/or particulate that may present the following hazards:

WARNING ! Exposure to dust or fumes can cause eye, skin and respiratory tract irritation. Exposure

to dust or fumes can cause respiratory system damage. Contains a material which may cause nervous

system effects. May cause an allergic skin reaction, also eye and mucous membrane irritation may

occur. Contains materials which may cause cancer. Use only with adequate ventilation. Avoid

contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Wash hands thoroughly after handling.

Nickel, Chrome and some of their compounds are listed in the 3rd Annual Report on Carcinogens as

NOTICE: SECTION 313


Section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know-Act of 1986. It is the responsibility of the

user to verify whether or not his or her facility is in compliance with all Federal and State Environmental

regulations.


Our Safety Data Sheets (SDS) have been reviewed for inclusion of any chemicals listed under the Safe Drinking

Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (California Proposition 65). Metallic Nickel, Chromium, etc, are

considered by the State of California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) as

causing cancer or reproductive toxicity.

NOTICE: HEXAVALENT CHROME

Hexavalent Chromium is not a constituent or component of Nickel, Nickel-Chromium or Stainless Steels. It is this

addition of chromium that gives such alloys their unique corrosion resistant properties through the formation of

an invisible and adherent chromium-rich oxide surface film. The vast majority of chromium in these alloys is in

the metallic/elemental form *(zero valence state). A small amount of trivalent chromium (oxide) is formed on

the surface of specialty steels and is crucial for protecting the alloy from corrosion.

Chromium metal is relatively nontoxic. Chromium metal and insoluble salts are said to be involved in fibrosis

of the lungs. When the metal is heated to a high temperature, fumes produced may be damaging to the lungs if

inhaled. The International Agency for Research on Cancer has concluded that the evidence for carcinogenicity in

humans and animals is inadequate for chromium metal and trivalent chromium compounds, but sufficient for

Hexavalent chromium compounds. Accordingly, Nickel, Nickel-Chromium alloys are in conformance with the

requirements of the European Union's legislation on waste electrical and electronic equipment ("WEEE"; Directive

2002/53/EC) and its companion directive on the restriction on hazardous substances used in EEE ("ROHS":

Directive 2002/95/EC), as well as EU Directive 2000/53EC on End of Life Vehicles, and the Japanese Green

Procurement Initiative.

Repeated or prolonged contact with the mixture may cause removal of natural oil from the skin resulting in non-allergic contact dermatitis and absorption through the skin.

In the event of dust formed by mechanical action (sanding, sawing, grinding, etc…) this dust may cause irritation by inhalation and contact with eyes.




11.1 Acute oral toxicity:


Iron: Ingestion overexposures may affect the gastrointestinal, nervous, hematopoietic system & liver. The product shows the following dangers according to the calculation method of Regulation (EC) Nbr


11.2 HEALTH HAZARDS & SIGNS & SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE

ACUTE:

Iron Oxide

- Irritation of eyes, nose and throat. Metallic taste or metal fume fever.

Nickel

- Irritation of eyes, nose and lungs, sensitized individuals may experience allergic skin rash.

- Inhalation of nickel powder at concentrations 15 times the PEL irritated the respiratory tract of

rodents.

- LD50 - Oral Rat: > 9000 mg/kg

CHRONIC:

Iron Oxide

- Pulmonary effects, siderosis: a benign pneumoconiosis, symptoms may include chronic bronchitis,

emphysema, and shortness of breath, breathing fumes may result in metal fume fever. Penetration

of iron particles into the skin or eye may cause an exogenous or ocular siderosis. Ingestion

overexposures may affect the gastrointestinal, nervous, hematopoietic system and the liver

Nickel

- Repeated skin contact with metallic nickel can cause nickel sensitivity and allergic skin rashes.

- Nickel metal powder has caused tumors at the site of injection in rodents; however, studies do not

suggest a significant risk for humans from nickel containing protheses.

- The National Toxicological Program has listed nickel as reasonably anticipated to be a carcinogen

based on the production of injection-site tumors. The IARC found there was inadequate evidence

that metallic nickel is carcinogenic to humans, but since there was sufficient evidence that it

is carcinogenic to animals, IARC concluded that metallic nickel is possibly carcinogenic to

humans.

- Epidemiological studies of workers exposed to nickel powder and to dust and fume generated in the

production of nickel alloys and of stainless steel have not indicated the presence of a

significant respiratory cancer hazard.

- The inhalation of nickel powder has not resulted in an increased incidence of malignant lung tumors

in rodents.

Repeated or prolonged contact with the mixture may cause removal of natural oil from the skin resulting in non-allergic contact dermatitis and absorption through the skin.

In the event of dust formed by mechanical action (sanding, sawing, grinding, etc…) this dust may cause irritation by inhalation and contact with eyes.




11.1 Acute oral toxicity:


Iron: Ingestion overexposures may affect the gastrointestinal, nervous, hematopoietic system & liver. The product shows the following dangers according to the calculation method of Regulation (EC) Nbr


11.2 HEALTH HAZARDS & SIGNS & SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE

ACUTE:

o Iron Oxide

Irritation of eyes, nose and throat. Metallic taste or metal fume fever.

o Nickel

- Irritation of eyes, nose and lungs, sensitized individuals may experience allergic skin rash.

- Inhalation of nickel powder at concentrations 15 times the PEL irritated the respiratory tract of

rodents.

- LD50 - Oral Rat: > 9000 mg/kg

CHRONIC:

Iron Oxide

- Pulmonary effects, siderosis: a benign pneumoconiosis, symptoms may include chronic bronchitis,

emphysema, and shortness of breath, breathing fumes may result in metal fume fever. Penetration of

iron particles into the skin or eye may cause an exogenous or ocular siderosis. Ingestion

overexposures may affect the gastrointestinal, nervous, hematopoietic system and the liver

Nickel

- Repeated skin contact with metallic nickel can cause nickel sensitivity and allergic skin rashes.

- Nickel metal powder has caused tumors at the site of injection in rodents; however, studies do not

suggest a significant risk for humans from nickel containing protheses.

- The National Toxicological Program has listed nickel as reasonably anticipated to be a carcinogen

based on the production of injection-site tumors. The IARC found there was inadequate evidence that

of 8

metallic nickel is carcinogenic to humans, but since there was sufficient evidence that it is

carcinogenic to animals, IARC concluded that metallic nickel is possibly carcinogenic to humans.

- Epidemiological studies of workers exposed to nickel powder and to dust and fume generated in the

production of nickel alloys and of stainless steel have not indicated the presence of a significant

respiratory cancer hazard.

- The inhalation of nickel powder has not resulted in an increased incidence of malignant lung tumors in

rodents.

- Repeated intratracheal instillation of nickel powder produced an increased incidence of malignant lung

tumors in rats. Repeated intratracheal instillation of nickel powder did not produce an increased

incidence of malignant lung tumors in hamsters when administered at the maximum tolerated dose.

ingle intratracheal installations of nickel powder in hamsters at doses near the LD50 produced an

increased incidence of fibro sarcomas, mesotheliomas and rhabdomyosarcomas. Substances:
