Anyone know about these?

Adverts say the Red lick has ‘high levels of copper’ and so must not be fed to sheep... 300mg/kg

However the ‘Health’ licks they do have 2000mg/kg and no warning, this seems so high in comparison. Anyone?
 
None of them can be fed to sheep if copper is included.
The red Rockies are used by farmers for farm animals so maybe that's why they have stated not for sheep, but the health licks are for horses but I have seen the warnings on those as well which say not suitable for sheep. Pretty sure all Rockies with copper in state this
 
ok yes that makes sense. Still wondering why they have such a dramatic difference in levels between the 2 though... especially when the red is advertised as high in copper and the health one isnt, wondering if its a typo tbh. I did call them to ask but the person i spoke to was also fairly clueless about what was in them, which is worrying.
