Getting Exposure to Tin
elementos.com.a ~~u~~
• Buy physical tin
- Logistically difficult
• Invest in an existing producer
– There are very few listed pure play tin producers globally
• Invest in Elementos
– The value of Elementos is strongly leveraged to tin price

Cleveland Province
elementos.com.a ~~u~~
Four projects across 96 square kilometres of contiguous tenure:
-
Tailings Project - Rehabilitation by reprocessing of a tin and copper resource
-
Open Pit Project – Potential integration of known surface mineralisation into the tailings project
-
Underground Redevelopment Project - Tin and copper production from Cleveland underground
-
Foley Caving Project – Potential expansion and development of a large underground tungsten Mineral Resource
These projects are 100% owned by the company under licence’s: EL7/2005, EL9/2006, and EL 15/2011.

Geology
elementos.com.a ~~u~~
The tin-copper mineralisation occurs as stratiform lenses within a series of sedimentary rocks. These sedimentary rocks are of Cambrian age and, while they were originally deposited horizontally, they have been tilted and are now more or less vertical. The Cambrian sedimentary rocks were intruded by the Devonian-Carboniferous Meredith granite.
Tin and copper bearing semi-massive sulphide lenses consisting of pyrrhotite and pyrite with cassiterite, and to a lesser extent chalcopyrite and stannite, and quartz, fluorite and carbonates.
Semi-massive sulphide lenses have formed by the replacement of limestone and is geologically similar to the tin bearing semi-massive and massive sulphide mineralisation at Renison.
Resource model
Dry
Ø Mineral Resources have been estimated for the tin and copper in the individual lenses Portal Ø The tin and copper lenses occur in three main structural domains, separated by two flatly dipping faults
Flooded
Exploration potential
- Ø Aberfoyle focused on the incremental expansion of resources
Ø The deposit is open at depth and along strike Ø Two shallow targets near the surface provide opportunities Ø There are known tin and copper intersections outside the current resource

The Road Ahead
elementos.com.a ~~u~~
Tin fundamentals remain strong, however, access to development capital is currently the biggest hurdle for junior miners
-
The Cleveland projects have a pathway to production
-
Elementos is set to leverage infrastructure in the Cleveland Province with the current cash reserves
-
Elementos is great value with a suite of assets to expand and develop
-
Elementos is “ Developing Today for Tomorrows Tin ”
