i came across [a heavy metal certificate for cacao powder on their website and i am uncertain about whether the levels of copper, along with other metals listed, are within safe limits.](https://indicorganics.in/cdn/shop/files/Cacao-HeavyMetals_page-0001.jpg?v=1694022786&width=713)
copper seems notably higher compared to the other metals. could someone knowledgeable help me understand if these values are acceptable?

Copper is higher but according to the FFSAI, the limit for copper in cocoa powder is 70 ppm or 70 mg/kg. I took a look at the rest of the standards and it seems the results or conclusion of the report is accurate.
