SUBJECT: Approved Amendments to the COMEX Silver Futures Contract to Add 
Brink,s Inc. and Delaware Depository Service Company, LLC as Exchange 
Licensed Depositories.


The Exchange has received approval from the Commodity Futures Trading 
Commission to amend Supplement No. 2, "Licensed Depositories and Weighmasters 
for Silver" of the COMEX Silver Futures Contract. The purpose of the approved 
amendment is to add Brink,s Inc.,s vault facility located at 652 Kent Avenue, 
Brooklyn, NY and Delaware Depository Service Company, LLC,s vault facilities 
located at 3601 North Market Street and 4200 Governor Printz Boulevard, 
Wilmington, DE as Exchange Licensed Depositories for the storage of silver 
deliverable against the Exchange,s COMEX Division Silver Futures Contract.

Effective Thursday, February 1, 2001, Brink,s Inc. in Brooklyn, New York and 
Delaware Depository Service Company, LLC in Wilmington, Delaware will become 
eligible as Licensed Depositories for the storage and delivery of silver 
against the COMEX Silver Futures Contract.

In order to provide the market with relevant data pertaining to both Brink,s 
and Delaware Depository Service Company,s silver stock figures, the Exchange 
will report historical stock figures for both companies on November 27, 
2000.  The Exchange will then report the stock figures as of November 30th, 
December 15th, December 29th 2000 and January 16th 2001 in a separate report 
from the daily metal warehouse statistics.  Effective February 1, 2001, the 
Exchange will begin reporting the eligible and registered silver stocks in 
the daily metal warehouse statistics for both companies.

Eligible and Registered Silver

The eligible silver stocks at both companies and that of the daily metal 
warehouse statistics are limited to silver bars that meet the Exchange,s 
criteria for delivery.  This criteria specifies that a silver bar must weigh 
1,000 troy ounces, plus or minus 10% and be on the Exchange,s Official List 
of Approved Refiners and Brands for silver.  The eligible stocks denoted 
here, and in the daily warehouse statistics, do not include such items as 100 
troy ounce silver bars or silver coins.

Specifically, eligible metal is not the same as registered metal.  Registered 
metal is defined as metal which meets the standards for delivery as stated in 
the COMEX Rules and for which a COMEX Depository Receipt (Warrant) has been 
issued.  Eligible metal is defined as metal which meets the standards for 
delivery as stated in the COMEX Rules and for which no COMEX Depository 
Receipt (Warrant) has been issued.

In order for eligible metal to become registered metal, the owner of the 
metal must have an Exchange Licensed Depository issue a Depository Receipt 
(Warrant) on those silver bars meeting Exchange standards comprising 5,000 
troy ounces (plus or minus 6%) stored at its facility.

A copy of the approved amendments is attached. Capital letters indicate 
additions, bracketing [ ] indicates deletions.
