Quarterly Report

For the quarter ending 30 June 2023

elementos.com

Elementos is an ASX-listed tin development company with assets in highly regulated and stable mining jurisdictions in Andalucía, Spain and Tasmania, Australia. The company is well positioned to take advantage of the strong growth in global electronics, increased demand for critical metals, and a significant forecast supply shortfall of tin in the form of electronic solder.

The company is primarily focussed on developing the Oropesa Tin Project in Andalucía. Currently undertaking a DFS to formalise the techno-economic parameters and financial returns to support financing and offtake with the aim of constructing the project to deliver the first major tin mine for the European market.

Quarter Highlights

  • Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) significantly matured during the period.

  • Official communications and meetings with Andalusian authorities regarding key licences and project approvals

  • Further tin mineralisation zones intersected outside Mineral Resource at the Oropesa Tin Project.

  • Zinc mineralisation investigations continue, as well as zinc by-product concentrate metallurgical test work

  • $3.0m Placement completed for Oropesa Tin Project

Oropesa Tin Project

Andalucía, Spain

Located in southern Spain, the Oropesa Tin Project is one of the world’s few undeveloped, open-cut mineable tin deposits, with access to world-class infrastructure. Elementos is developing Oropesa as Europe’s next and only significant tin mine.

Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS)

Significant progress was made during the quarter to complete the Oropesa Tin Project DFS, with major workstreams, packages and reporting over 90% completed. However, as per the 22 June 2023 ASX announcement, the finalisation of the DFS was paused following communications with the Andalusian Administration.

Subsequent to quarter end, Elementos has confirmed the official submissions “includes some proposed modifications to the project layout to satisfy the requirements of the department and further minimise impacts. Once this modified scope is confirmed, the DFS will re-commence and timelines to completion will be established.”

The figures below show the locations of the key infrastructure locations from the DFS design. These layouts do not yet represent the modifications which are in discussion with the Andalucían authorities. The company will update the market when these have been confirmed.

Update on Regulatory Approvals and DFS

On 20th June the Minas de Estaños de España received correspondence from the local department considering its Environmental Application, stating that they considered elements of the proposed mining project and treatment plant (Project) were not fully compatible with certain environmental regulations.

Since receiving the correspondence, Elementos has worked with its local team, advisors, and local authorities to clarify and better understand the communications and their potential impact on the Oropesa Tin Project and to plan the optimal pathway to licencing. This has included meetings with the Environmental Department, Mining Department, Project Accelerator Unit and Senior Government Officials (local, Provincial, Regional).

We are now confident, following these meetings, that the Oropesa Tin Project is better understood by the relevant department and continues to have strong support at all levels.

The company submitted its official response to the referenced correspondence on Monday 17th July, subsequent to quarter end. The company will continue to work closely with the authorities as this submission is assessed and a plan is agreed in a consultative manner.

The submission to the authorities includes some proposed modifications to the project layout to satisfy the requirements of the department and further minimise impacts.

The company will provide further updates to the market when the proposed modifications are agreed, and the forward plan is ratified. Once this modified scope is confirmed, the DFS will re-commence and timelines to completion will be established.

Further tin, zinc and copper mineralisation intersected outside the Mineral Resource

Final drilling assays were received at the Oropesa Tin Project at the end of the quarter, with the company intersecting further tin, zinc and copper mineralisation outside the Mineral Resource.

Exploration Diamond Drilling to the north-west of the Oropesa Resource

Drill holes ADD_05 and ADD_07 were drilled to test for extensions to the semi-massive to massive sulphide mineralisation intersected in drill holes SGT_4 and ADD_04A[12] to the north-west of the Oropesa Mineral Resource.

==> picture [512 x 304] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 1. Cross-section depicting the outlines of the mineral resource wireframes and location of exploration drill holes ADD-05 & ADD-07, at the Oropesa Tin Project, Spain (looking towards the northwest)

ADD_05 intersected zinc and copper mineralisation over a distance of 8.9m (downhole). This result confirms continuity of the base metal mineralisation to the northwest of the Oropesa Mineral Resource.

ADD_05:8.9m @ 1.14% Cu & 0.31% Zn from 87.0m

ADD_07 intersected a significant zone of tin mineralisation to the northwest of and at depth below the current Oropesa Mineral Resource.

ADD_07:23.0m @ 0.14% Sn from 189.3m (0.1% Sn cut-off grade)

For the quarter ending 30 June 2023

Drill holes ADD_05 and ADD_07 not only contain valuable mineralised intercepts but also add important geological information to Oropesa’s exploration assessment and provides valuable information for the planning and execution of future exploration drilling programs to the northwest of the current Oropesa Mineral Resource.

Extensional exploration diamond drilling to the south-east of the Oropesa Resource

Diamond drill hole ADD-46 was designed to test for shallow extensions to the south-eastern edge of the known Mineral Resource. The mineralisation intersected in ADD_46 has defined the boundaries of potential extensions to the Mineral Resource in this region.

ADD_46:0.6m @ 0.30% Sn from 102.0m

(0.1% Sn cut-off grade)

The June results[3] see the completion of the current phase of exploration drilling at Oropesa. The results do not contribute to the recently announced Mineral Resource Estimate[4] and so will not contribute tonnages or grade to the Oropesa Tin Project Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS).

These results can therefore be viewed as indicative to further exploration potential contained both extensionally and regionally across the Oropesa tenement.

Table 1. Drill hole collar data

In addition to the final assays, further tin mineralisation zones were intersected outside the Mineral Resource at Oropesa earlier in the quarter[5] , again confirming the potential of a near-surface extensional zone to the south-east, as well as the tenement’s overall exploration potential.[6]

Diamond drill hole ADD-44 was designed to test for shallow extensions to the south-eastern edge of the known Mineral Resource and this has been intersected as follows:

ADD_44:19.0m @ 0.48% Sn from 33.0m

(0.1% Sn cut-off grade)

Drill hole ADD_42 was designed to test a further target approximately 50m to the southeast of ADD_44. ADD_42 and also intersected smaller narrow zones of significant tin mineralisation, confirming the likely shallow southeasterly plunge of the mineralisation in this region of the mineral resource.

ADD_42:1.50m @ 0.42% Sn from 25.3m 0.60m @ 0.58% Sn from 43.4m 1.20m @ 0.44% Sn from 59.6m

(0.1% Sn cut-off grade)

Drill hole ADD_06 was drilled to test for extensions to the semi-massive to massive sulphide mineralisation intersected in drill holes SGT_4 and ADD_04A2[78] to the north-west of the Oropesa Mineral Resource.

ADD_06 intersected a fault zone at a depth of between 71-73m, which is interpreted to have offset or truncated the mineralisation intersected in ADD_04A and SGT_4. ADD_06 did however record the following small yet significant mineralisation intercept.

ADD_06:0.60m @ 0.48% Sn & 0.62% Zn from 87.0m

(0.1% Sn cut-off grade)

Drill hole ADD_06 adds important geological information to Oropesa’s exploration assessment which will be incorporated in the continuing evaluation of the north-west area.

Zinc mineralisation investigations & Metallurgical test work

The company continues to investigate zinc mineralisation that appears to exist within the Oropesa Tin Project’s Mineral Resource wireframes. The is a large body of work to study the zinc mineralisation (which has been mineralogically confirmed as the mineral sphalerite,( (Zn,Fe)S) and evaluate the potential of producing a secondary by-product concentrate from Oropesa, which is being conducted via metallurgical test work from Wardell Armstrong International Laboratories (UK).

Historic zinc assay results are being compiled from multiple data sources; including the re-assessment of historic zinc data held by the company, the acquisition and assessment of additional assay data purchased from a 3rd party laboratory and the re-assaying of historical drill sample pulps from core not previously sampled for zinc.

In addition to the zinc assay data, the company is conducting a metallurgical test program at the Wardell Armstrong International laboratories. The purpose of this test work program is to attempt to produce a separate saleable byproduct zinc concentrate from the reject stream produced by the sulphide flotation circuit of the tin concentrate flowsheet at the Oropesa Tin Project in Spain. The potential to establish an incremental and low-cost by-product zinc concentrate from the Oropesa Project would be a significant opportunity to support the development of the primary tin mining operation.

Cleveland Tin Project

Tasmania, Australia

The Cleveland Tin Project is located 80km southwest of Burnie in the mineral-rich northwest region of Tasmania, Australia. It is a historic underground mine site boasting excellent electrical, water and transport infrastructure.

Corporate

Placement

On 5 April 2023 the company announced it had successfully completed a $3 million Placement to fund completion of several significant project milestones at its Oropesa Tin Project in Spain. The Placement was supported by existing and new institutional, professional, and sophisticated investors. Fully paid ordinary shares were issued under the Placement at an issue price of $0.18 per Share. Morgans and BW Equities acted as Joint Lead Managers to the Placement, which was strongly supported by Elementos’ Directors. Elementos’ Directors (or their associated entities) subscribed for a total of 4,750,000 Shares (approximately $855,000) under the Placement which was approved at an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on 31 May 2023.

Tin Pricing

The London Metals Exchange (LME) tin price increased 6.2% during the quarter from US$26,075/t to US$27,700/t as the market navigated a period of weak demand and but weaker supply (www.LME.com). The Shanghai Futures Exchange (SHFE) held steady +0.1% during the quarter, closing at US$30,345/t (www.metal.com/tin).

Tin prices have risen noticeably during the post-quarter period closing on 27 July at US$29,450/t on the LME and ~US$32,913/t on the SHFE.

Whilst tin metal inventories continue to rise on the LME (~5,030t total) and stay relatively flat on the SHFE (9,273t total) concerns over tin concentrate supply appear to be driving tin metal prices higher, likely with downstream users stocking up before a predicted deficit. The tin mining bans announced by Myanmar’s Wa state continue to spook the market in conjunction with two major Chinese smelters shutting for maintenance during July.

Company Profile

Elementos Limited’s strategy is to deliver sustainable shareholder value through the development of its portfolio of tin assets including Oropesa in Andalucía, Spain and Cleveland in Tasmania, Australia.

The company is focussed on maturing the Oropesa Tin Project through a Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) after confirming it is one of the best undeveloped tin Mineral Resources in the world.

At Oropesa, a 2023 Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) resulted in a total MRE increase of 0.7Mt (+4%) to 19.6Mt at 0.39% Sn with 100% of the 2023 MRE tonnes located within the 2022 Optimisation Study[1] US$30k/t Pit Shell being classified as Measured or Indicated (no Inferred Resources).

In addition, the Project completed a series of feasibility development programs to further develop key engineering information to feed into a DFS, which was announced as the development pathway for the project in July 2021.

In addition, Elementos continues to develop the Cleveland tin-copper and tungsten project in Tasmania, with the immediate focus on determining the potential to increase the mineralisation of the project through exploration on prospective targets adjacent to and below the existing resource.
