FOR
VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Brazil Minerals, Inc., a Nevada corporation (together with its successors and assigns, the “Issuer”),
hereby certifies that THE SUTER FAMILY TRUST U/T/A DATED APRIL 12, 2002, AS AMENDED AND RESTATED (the
“Holder”) or its registered assigns is entitled to subscribe for and purchase, during the Term (as hereinafter defined),
One Million Five Hundred Thousand Shares (1,500,000) shares (subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided) of the duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Common Stock of the Issuer, at an exercise price per share equal to the Option Price
then in effect, subject, however, to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. Capitalized terms
used in this Option and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings specified in Section 9 hereof.


 


1.   Term.
The term of this Option shall commence on March 4, 2014 and shall expire at 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on March 4, 2016 (such period
being the “Term” and such date, the “Termination Date”).


 


2.   Method
of Exercise; Payment; Issuance of New Option; Transfer and Exchange.


 


(a)   Time
of Exercise. The purchase rights represented by this Option may be exercised in whole or in part during the Term for such number
of shares of Common Stock set forth above.


  


(b)   Method
of Exercise. The Holder hereof may exercise this Option, in whole or in part, by the surrender of this Option (with the exercise
form attached hereto duly executed (“Notice of Exercise”)) at the principal office of the Issuer, and by the
payment to the Issuer of an amount of consideration therefor equal to the Option Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied
by the number of shares of Option Stock with respect to which this Option is then being exercised, payable at such Holder’s
election by certified or official bank check or by wire transfer to an account designated by the Issuer.


 




    	 



    	 



    

  


(c)   Issuance
of Stock Certificates. In the event of any exercise of this Option in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, certificates for the shares of Option Stock so purchased shall be dated the date of such exercise and delivered to the
Holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding five (5) Trading Days after such exercise (the “Delivery Date”)
or, at the request of the Holder (provided that a registration statement under the Securities Act providing for the resale of the
Option Stock is then in effect or that the resale of all shares of Option Stock are otherwise exempt from registration), issued
and delivered to the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) account on the Holder’s behalf via the Deposit Withdrawal
Agent Commission System (“DWAC”) within a reasonable time, not exceeding five (5) Trading Days after such exercise,
and the Holder hereof shall be deemed for all purposes to be the holder of the shares of Option Stock so purchased as of the date
of such exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Issuer or its transfer agent shall only be obligated to issue
and deliver the shares to the DTC on a holder’s behalf via DWAC if such exercise is in connection with a sale or other exemption
from registration by which the shares may be issued without a restrictive legend. The Holder shall deliver this original Option,
or an indemnification undertaking with respect to such Option in the case of its loss, theft or destruction, at such time that
this Option is fully exercised. With respect to partial exercises of this Option, the Issuer shall keep written records for the
Holder of the number of shares of Option Stock exercised as of each date of exercise.


  


(d)   Transferability
of Option. Subject to Section 2(f) hereof, this Option may be transferred by a Holder, in whole or in part, to an “accredited
investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act without the consent of the Issuer. If transferred pursuant
to this paragraph, this Option may be transferred on the books of the Issuer by the Holder hereof in person or by duly authorized
attorney, upon surrender of this Option at the principal office of the Issuer, properly endorsed (by the Holder executing an assignment
in the form attached hereto) and upon payment of any necessary transfer tax or other governmental charge imposed upon such transfer.
This Option is exchangeable at the principal office of the Issuer for Options to purchase the same aggregate number of shares of
Option Stock, each new Option to represent the right to purchase such number of shares of Option Stock as the Holder hereof shall
designate at the time of such exchange. All Options issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the Original Issue Date and
shall be identical with this Option, except as to the number of shares of Option Stock issuable pursuant thereto.


 


(e)   Continuing
Rights of Holder. The Issuer will, at the time of or at any time after each exercise of this Option, upon the request of the
Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing the extent, if any, of its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder all rights to which
such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the terms of this Option, provided that
if any such Holder shall fail to make any such request, the failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Issuer to
afford such rights to such Holder.


 


(f)   Compliance
with Securities Laws.


 


(i)    The
Holder of this Option, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Option and the shares of Option Stock to be issued upon exercise
hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment,
and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Option or any shares of Option Stock to be issued upon exercise
hereof except pursuant to an effective registration statement, or an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act and
any applicable state securities laws.


 


(ii)   Except
as provided in paragraph (iii) below, this Option and all certificates representing shares of Option Stock issued upon exercise
hereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:


 


THIS OPTION AND THE SHARES OF COMMON
STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES
ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE ISSUER SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY
TO THE ISSUER THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.

(iii)  The
Issuer agrees to reissue this Option or certificates representing any of the Option Stock, without the legend set forth above if
at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such securities, the Holder shall give written notice to the Issuer describing
the manner and terms of such transfer. Such proposed transfer will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Issuer has received
an unqualified opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that the registration of such securities
under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the Securities
Act covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Issuer with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and
has become effective under the Securities Act, or (iii) the Issuer has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer
that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities laws are not required; and (b) either (i)
the Issuer has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that registration or qualification
under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition,
or (ii) compliance with applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected or a valid exemption exists
with respect thereto. The Issuer will respond to any such notice from a holder within five (5) Trading Days. In the case of any
proposed transfer under this Section 2(h), the Issuer will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities
or “blue sky” laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then
qualified, (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not
then subject, or (z) to comply with state securities or “blue sky” laws of any state for which registration by coordination
is unavailable to the Issuer. The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 2(g) shall be in addition to, and not by way
of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this Option. Whenever a certificate representing
the Option Stock is required to be issued to the Holder without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing
the Option Stock, the Issuer shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Option Stock to the Holder by crediting
the account of the Holder or Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its DWAC system (to the extent not inconsistent with
any provisions of this Option).


 


(h)   Accredited
Investor Status. In no event may the Holder exercise this Option in whole or in part unless the Holder is an “accredited
investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act.


 


3.   Stock
Fully Paid; Reservation and Listing of Shares; Covenants.


 


(a)   Stock
Fully Paid. The Issuer represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that all shares of Option Stock which may be issued upon
the exercise of this Option or otherwise hereunder will, when issued in accordance with the terms of this Option, be duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by or through the Issuer. The
Issuer further covenants and agrees that during the period within which this Option may be exercised, the Issuer will at all times
have authorized and reserved for the purpose of the issuance upon exercise of this Option a number of authorized but unissued shares
of Common Stock equal to at least the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Option without regard to
any limitations on exercise.


 


(b)   Reservation.
If any shares of Common Stock required to be reserved for issuance upon exercise of this Option or as otherwise provided hereunder
require registration or qualification with any Governmental Authority under any federal or state law before such shares may be
so issued, the Issuer will in good faith use its best efforts as expeditiously as possible at its expense to cause such shares
to be duly registered or qualified. If the Issuer shall list any shares of Common Stock on any securities exchange or market it
will, at its expense, list thereon, and maintain and increase when necessary such listing, of, all shares of Option Stock from
time to time issued upon exercise of this Option or as otherwise provided hereunder (provided that such Option Stock has
been registered pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act then in effect), and, to the extent permissible under
the applicable securities exchange rules, all unissued shares of Option Stock which are at any time issuable hereunder, so long
as any shares of Common Stock shall be so listed. The Issuer will also so list on each securities exchange or market, and will
maintain such listing of, any other securities which the Holder of this Option shall be entitled to receive upon the exercise of
this Option if at the time any securities of the same class shall be listed on such securities exchange or market by the Issuer.


 




    	3



    	 



    

  


(c)   Covenants.
The Issuer shall not by any action including, without limitation, amending the Certificate of Incorporation or the by-laws of the
Issuer, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any
other action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Option, but will at all times in
good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate
to protect the rights of the Holder hereof against dilution (to the extent specifically provided herein) or impairment. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer will (i) not permit the par value, if any, of its Common Stock to exceed the
then effective Option Price, (ii) not amend or modify any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws of the Issuer
in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of the Holders of the Options, (iii) take all such action as may be reasonably
necessary in order that the Issuer may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, free and
clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances and restrictions (other than as provided herein) upon the exercise of this Option, and
(iv) use its best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction
thereof as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Issuer to perform its obligations under this Option.


 


(d)   Loss,
Theft, Destruction of Options. Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Issuer of the ownership of and the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of any Option and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity or security
satisfactory to the Issuer or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Option, the Issuer will
make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Option, a new Option of like tenor and representing the
right to purchase the same number of shares of Common Stock.


 


(e)   Payment
of Taxes. The Issuer will pay any documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of the Option Stock issuable
upon exercise of this Option; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which
may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates representing Option Stock in
a name other than that of the Holder in respect to which such shares are issued.


 


4.   Adjustment
of Option Price. The price at which such shares of Option Stock may be purchased upon exercise of this Option shall be subject
to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4. The Issuer shall give the Holder notice of any event described
below which requires an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section 5.


 


(a)   Recapitalization,
Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.


 


(i)    In
case the Issuer after the Original Issue Date shall do any of the following (each, a “Triggering Event”): (a)
consolidate or merge with or into any other Person and the Issuer shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation of such
consolidation or merger, or (b) permit any other Person to consolidate with or merge into the Issuer and the Issuer shall be the
continuing or surviving Person but, in connection with such consolidation or merger, any Capital Stock of the Issuer shall be changed
into or exchanged for Securities of any other Person or cash or any other property, or (c) transfer all or substantially all of
its properties or assets to any other Person, or (d) effect a capital reorganization or reclassification of its Capital Stock,
then, and in the case of each such Triggering Event, proper provision shall be made to the Option Price and the number of shares
of Option Stock that may be purchased upon exercise of this Option so that, upon the basis and the terms and in the manner provided
in this Option, the Holder of this Option shall be entitled upon the exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such
Triggering Event, to the extent this Option is not exercised prior to such Triggering Event, to receive at the Option Price in
effect at the time immediately prior to the consummation of such Triggering Event, in lieu of the Common Stock issuable upon such
exercise of this Option prior to such Triggering Event, the Securities, cash and property to which such Holder would have been
entitled upon the consummation of such Triggering Event if such Holder had exercised the rights represented by this Option immediately
prior thereto (including the right of a shareholder to elect the type of consideration it will receive upon a Triggering Event),
subject to adjustments (subsequent to such corporate action) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for elsewhere
in this Section 4. Immediately upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event, the Issuer shall notify the Holder in writing of such
Triggering Event and provide the calculations in determining the number of shares of Option Stock issuable upon exercise of the
new warrant and the adjusted Option Price. Upon the Holder’s request, the continuing or surviving corporation as a result
of such Triggering Event shall issue to the Holder a new warrant of like tenor evidencing the right to purchase the adjusted number
of shares of Option Stock and the adjusted Option Price pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Section 4(a)(i).


 




    	4



    	 



    

  


(ii)   In
the event that the Holder has elected not to exercise this Option prior to the consummation of a Triggering Event, so long as the
surviving entity pursuant to any Triggering Event is a company that has a class of equity securities registered pursuant to the
Exchange Act and its common stock is listed or quoted on a national securities exchange, national automated quotation system or
the OTC Bulletin Board, the surviving entity and/or each Person (other than the Issuer) which may be required to deliver any Securities,
cash or property upon the exercise of this Option as provided herein shall assume, by written instrument delivered to, and reasonably
satisfactory to, the Holder of this Option, (A) the obligations of the Issuer under this Option (and if the Issuer shall survive
the consummation of such Triggering Event, such assumption shall be in addition to, and shall not release the Issuer from, any
continuing obligations of the Issuer under this Option) and (B) the obligation to deliver to such Holder such Securities, cash
or property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this subsection (a), such Holder shall be entitled to receive, and
the surviving entity and/or each such Person shall have similarly delivered to such Holder an opinion of counsel for the surviving
entity and/or each such Person, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Holder, or in the alternative, a written
acknowledgement executed by the President or Chief Financial Officer of the Issuer, stating that this Option shall thereafter continue
in full force and effect and the terms hereof (including, without limitation, all of the provisions of this subsection (a)) shall
be applicable to the Securities, cash or property which the surviving entity and/or each such Person may be required to deliver
upon any exercise of this Option or the exercise of any rights pursuant hereto.


 


(b)   Stock
Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations. If at any time the Issuer shall:


 


(i)    make
or issue or set a record date for the holders of the Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend payable
in, or other distribution of, shares of Common Stock,


 


(ii)   subdivide
its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, or


 


(iii)  combine
its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock,


 


then (1) the number of shares of Common
Stock for which this Option is exercisable immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted to equal the number
of shares of Common Stock which a record holder of the same number of shares of Common Stock for which this Option is exercisable
immediately prior to the occurrence of such event would own or be entitled to receive after the happening of such event, and (2)
the Option Price then in effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Option Price then in effect multiplied by the number of shares
of Common Stock for which this Option is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of shares of
Common Stock for which this Option is exercisable immediately after such adjustment.


 


(c)   Certain
Other Distributions. If at any time the Issuer shall make or issue or set a record date for the holders of the Common Stock
for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or other distribution of:


 


(i)   cash,


 


(ii)  any
evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (other
than cash), or


 


(iii)  any
warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any
other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash),


 




    	5



    	 



    

  


then (1) the number of shares of Common
Stock for which this Option is exercisable shall be adjusted to equal the product of the number of shares of Common Stock for which
this Option is exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the
Per Share Market Value of Common Stock at the date of taking such record and (B) the denominator of which shall be such Per Share
Market Value minus the amount allocable to one share of Common Stock of any such cash so distributable and of the fair value (as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Issuer and supported by an opinion from an investment banking firm mutually
agreed upon by the Issuer and the Holder) of any and all such evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock, other securities or property
or warrants or other subscription or purchase rights so distributable, and (2) the Option Price then in effect shall be adjusted
to equal (A) the Option Price then in effect multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Option is exercisable
immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Option is exercisable immediately
after such adjustment. A reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value
or from no par value to par value) into shares of Common Stock and shares of any other class of stock shall be deemed a distribution
by the Issuer to the holders of its Common Stock of such shares of such other class of stock within the meaning of this Section
4(c) and, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into a larger or smaller number of shares of Common Stock
as a part of such reclassification, such change shall be deemed a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock within the meaning of Section 4(b).


 


(d)   Other
Provisions Applicable to Adjustments under this Section. The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments
of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Option is exercisable and the Option Price then in effect provided for in
this Section 4:


 


 


(i)    When
Adjustments to Be Made. The adjustments required by this Section 4 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event
requiring an adjustment shall occur, except that any adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Option is
exercisable that would otherwise be required may be postponed (except in the case of a subdivision or combination of shares of
the Common Stock, as provided for in Section 4(b)) up to, but not beyond the date of exercise if such adjustment either by itself
or with other adjustments not previously made adds or subtracts less than one percent (1%) of the shares of Common Stock for which
this Option is exercisable immediately prior to the making of such adjustment. Any adjustment representing a change of less than
such minimum amount (except as aforesaid) which is postponed shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together
with other adjustments required by this Section 4 and not previously made, would result in a minimum adjustment or on the date
of exercise. For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on
the date of its occurrence.


 


(ii)   Fractional
Interests. In computing adjustments under this Section 4, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be taken into account
to the nearest one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share.


 


(iii)  When
Adjustment Not Required. If the Issuer shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling
them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution
to stockholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights,
then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made
in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.


 


(e)   Form
of Option after Adjustments. The form of this Option need not be changed because of any adjustments in the Option Price or
the number and kind of Securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Option.


 


(f)   Escrow
of Option Stock. If after any property becomes distributable pursuant to this Section 4 by reason of the taking of any record
of the holders of Common Stock, but prior to the occurrence of the event for which such record is taken, and the Holder exercises
this Option, any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise by reason of such adjustment shall be deemed the last shares of
Common Stock for which this Option is exercised (notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary herein) and such shares or
other property shall be held in escrow for the Holder by the Issuer to be issued to the Holder upon and to the extent that the
event actually takes place, upon payment of the current Option Price. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary herein,
if the event for which such record was taken fails to occur or is rescinded, then such escrowed shares shall be cancelled by the
Issuer and escrowed property returned.


 




    	6



    	 



    

  


5.   Notice
of Adjustments. Whenever the Option Price or Option Share Number shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4 hereof (for purposes
of this Section 5, each an “adjustment”), the Issuer shall cause its Chief Financial Officer or other authorized
officer, as the case may be, to prepare and execute a certificate setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the
adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated (including a description of the basis
on which the Board made any determination hereunder), and the Option Price and Option Share Number after giving effect to such
adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder of this Option promptly after each adjustment.
Any dispute between the Issuer and the Holder of this Option with respect to the matters set forth in such certificate may at the
option of the Holder of this Option be submitted to an Independent Appraiser, provided that the Issuer shall have ten (10)
days after receipt of notice from such Holder of its selection of such firm to object thereto, in which case such Holder shall
select another such firm and the Issuer shall have no such right of objection. The Independent Appraiser selected by the Holder
of this Option as provided in the preceding sentence shall be instructed to deliver a written opinion as to such matters to the
Issuer and such Holder within thirty (30) days after submission to it of such dispute. Such opinion shall be final and binding
on the parties hereto. The reasonable costs and expenses of the Independent Appraiser in making such determination shall be paid
by the Issuer, in the event the Holder's calculation was correct, or by the Holder, in the event the Issuer’s calculation
was correct, or equally by the Issuer and the Holder in the event that neither the Issuer's or the Holder's calculation was correct.


 


6.   Fractional
Shares. No fractional shares of Option Stock will be issued in connection with any exercise hereof, but in lieu of such fractional
shares, the Issuer shall, at its option, (a) pay an amount in cash equal to the Option Price multiplied by such fraction or (b)
round the number of shares to be issued upon exercise up to the nearest whole number of shares.
