DECEMBER 2014 QUARTERLY REPORT
Highlights
-
High-grade tin mineralisation found in surface sampling at Cleveland
-
Positive metallurgical test results for the Cleveland Tailings Project
-
Appointment of Non-executive Chairman
Elementos Limited (ASX: ELT) (“Elementos” or the “Company”) activities this quarter have focused on the continued development of the Cleveland Tailings Project, including:
-
Preparation of the Mining Lease Application;
-
Preparation of the Development Proposal and Environmental Management Plan; and
-
Completion of a Pre-Feasibility Study for the reprocessing of the Tailings Mineral Resource.
These documents are due to be finalised in the first quarter of 2015.
High-Grade Tin and Copper Mineralisation in Surface Sampling
During the quarter, the Company reported the results of a selective surface sampling program of outcrops and historical spoil dumps in and around the historic Hall’s open cut, which sits directly above the Cleveland underground mine. The results from this program demonstrate the potential for identifying near surface Mineral Resources at Cleveland. This preliminary work is encouraging, and the Company plans to further define surface mineralisation through selective sampling and handheld XRF exploration programs in 2015.
Cleveland Tailings - Positive Metallurgical Test Results
During the quarter, the Company completed a metallurgical test program on the Tailings Mineral Resource to confirm the potential tin recoveries achievable by traditional mineral processing methods. The testwork provided positive results, indicating that a recovery of 50% of the contained tin to a product containing 50% tin by dry weight could be expected using gravity and flotation technologies.
Appointment of Rick Anthon as Non-executive Chairman
In December 2014, the board was pleased to announce the appointment of Rick Anthon as Non-executive Chairman of the Company. Rick brings a wealth of experience to the board with a strong legal and commercial background that will be invaluable as the Company approaches project financing negotiations for the development of the tailings project.
