6. Financial Instruments

a) Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of bank deposits and accounts receivable. The maximum credit risk is the book value of these financial instruments however, the Company considers the risk of non recovery of these amounts to be minimal.

The Company places its cash and bank deposits with high credit quality financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution.

The Company continually evaluates and monitors the credit quality of its customers. There is a concentration of credit risk in relation to activities with associated entities. This risk is managed indirectly through appointments to the governing bodies of these associated entities.
