Terms Of Use

By using this website, you agree to the terms and conditions contained in these legal notices and in the Privacy Policy (below). Please read these terms carefully. We reserve the right to add, delete or otherwise modify portions of these terms at any time, so please check it regularly.

1. Information About Us

This website is operated by McDougall Minerals Inc. (“McDougall Minerals”, “We", “Us", “Ourselves" or any generic term or phrase). Our offices are located near Bancroft Ontario. Our address is P.O. Box 1924, Bancroft, Ontario, K0L 1C0.

2. Access

Access to this website is permitted on a temporary basis, and we reserve the right to withdraw or amend the service provided on this website without notice. McDougall Minerals will not be liable if for any reason this website is unavailable at any time or for any period.

3. Specimen Sales

Please note that all prices on the website are given in Canadian dollars.

Additional important information is set out in Ordering and Shipping.

All orders by Canadian residents are subject to HST/GST. If you are ordering through the website, these amounts will be automatically calculated and added for your jurisdiction within Canada.
If you are ordering from a jurisdiction outside of Canada, you are responsible for the payment of all applicable import/customs duties, tariffs, brokerage fees and taxes, if any are applicable.

We reserve the right to refuse any sales.

Shipping fees are set out in Ordering and Shipping. However, as noted there, although the described fees will almost always be adequate, we may contact you to request extra postage and/or discuss alternative shipping/delivery methods in the event of a very heavy or large overseas shipment.

Our system has been configured to automatically remove from availability any specimen once payment has been processed. If a specimen is acquired other than through the website system, it will be removed from availability as well. However, it is possible that more than one person may wish to acquire the same specimen, particularly in the context of new updates. It is even possible that orders may be placed simultaneously by two people for the same specimen. (I wish there was a way to avoid any possibility of any issue of people wanting the same specimen, but it seems this is not possible.)  Time priority will be given in the case of orders for the same specimen. If a specimen is ordered and it is no longer available, you may choose an alternate or otherwise a refund will be given. If you have a preferred alternate at the time of your order, please let me know.
