What are the Cadmium levels?

This cocoa is from Peru, so it's a good question: https://www.confectionerynews.com/Article/2017/07/04/High-cadmium-levels-in-cocoa-from-Peru-may-impact-chocolate-quality

What are the amounts of cadmium and lead in this product?

Here's what the company just sent me. The levels are so low, there should be nothing to worry about... From Zint: "The reason you see this warning sticker appearing on some of our products is because of new 2018 labeling rules around California's Prop 65, which has been around since 1986. Prop 65 is a controversial law because it imposes extremely low regulatory limits for certain elements compared to other regulatory agencies such as FDA, WHO, and EPA. Many believe the Prop 65 limits are unreasonable, as they are unsubstantiated by proof that these amounts pose any health risks at all. And in the case of certain plant-based superfoods, trace amounts of some heavy metals like lead are basically impossible to avoid, as they are naturally present in the soil, air, and environment. Here’s the important thing to know about Zint: all of our products are lab-tested for purity, have no chemicals or other ingredients added, and fall well within the safety limits set by regulatory agencies such as FDA, EPA, and WHO. In just a couple of cases, we have a product that exceeds the extremely low limits set by Prop 65 in one or two areas, in which case we’re obligated to add the warning sticker. Because new Prop 65 rules go into effect in 2018, you'll soon see nearly every superfood brand add these warning labels to their products. But because of rigorous third-party testing, our adherence to national safety standards, and our commitment to pure, clean, natural nutrition, we really don't believe people need to be alarmed by these new warnings on Zint products."

Has it been 3rd party tested for heavy metals?

That’s a great question... maybe the manufacturer could shed some light on that question, I’d love to hear the answer too!
