Creating a high-value, multi project tin company
3 Staged Tin Projects
Elementos is creating a multi-project tin production and exploration company with a pipeline of projects to deliver sustainable production and growth. 1- Spain 2- Tasmania 3- Malaysia JORC tin Mineral Resources total 134,600 tonnes By having a diversified portfolio of tin projects, in jurisdictions with a long mining history, Elementos is implementing a lower risk growth strategy that aims to meet the predicted global shortfall in tin supply.
The ELT Investment
==> picture [84 x 83] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [84 x 83] intentionally omitted <==
The global refined tin supply shortfall is predicted to be 40,000tpa by 2020.
Elementos is targeting being a significant global tin producer by 2025 from multiple low cost open cut operations.
Elementos Growth and Development Strategy
==> picture [61 x 55] intentionally omitted <==
Implementation has already commenced via:
-
Arrangement Agreement entered into for the acquisition of the Oropesa Tin Project (Spain) and acceleration of the DFS.
-
Diamond drilling at the Cleveland Tin Project (Tasmania) and the definition of an improved JORC Resource for the open pit project .
-
The negotiation of a Farm-in and Joint Venture Agreement on the Temengor Tin Project (Malaysia).
-
The application of new technology to improve economic outcomes.
-
Vertical integration to move away from concentrate production only.

==> picture [61 x 60] intentionally omitted <==
Location - Located approx. 190km north of Seville, in Andalucia Province, Spain.
Infrastructure - Located close to major highways which link to export ports, water supply and power supply. The region has a skilled mining workforce;
Large, well-defined JORC resource – 12.5mt @ 0.54% Sn. More than 250 cored drill holes for greater than 54,000m. A globally significant, undeveloped resource with strong opportunities for resource expansion;
Open-cut mining potential –The deposit is amendable to simple drill and blast, truck and shovel open cut mining operations;
Simple metallurgy - extensive metallurgical testing and process flowsheet designed to produce a 62.4% tin concentrate at a 74.2% metallurgical recovery;
==> picture [166 x 166] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [295 x 286] intentionally omitted <==
Oropesa Tin Project – Near Term Development Project
Large sunk cost – significant investment in drilling, geophysics, metallurgical testing and development studies, approximately $25m expenditure since 2008; Near-term production potential – A Definitive Feasibility Study has commenced which is expected to be completed in mid 2019;
Permitting process advanced –Mining Licence application has been submitted to the Government for approval;
Low sovereign risk - The Andalucia region of Spain is home to some of the country’s most significant mining operations and part of the European Union which provides a safe investment environment; and
Local community support - The local government and community is extremely supportive of the project moving ahead.
Oropesa Tin Project – Acquisition
Arrangement Agreement - signed for the acquisition of the Oropesa Tin Project on 22[nd] October 2018.
Arrangement Agreement - provides for Eurotin to transfer to Elementos 100% of the shares currently on issue in Minas De Estaño De España S.L.U. (Mespa), a wholly owned subsidiary of Eurotin and the holder of Oropesa.
Consideration - the acquisition of Oropesa is one billion fully paid ordinary shares in Elementos (Consideration Shares) which are to be distributed pro-rata to Eurotin’s shareholders. In addition, there will remain after completion a CAD$1million debt owed by Mespa to Mark Wellings.

Cleveland Tin Project
Located 80km southwest of Burnie in the mineral rich northwest region of Tasmania, Australia.
Cleveland consists of stratiform tin and copper bearing semi-massive sulphide replacement ore lenses within a carbonaceous sedimentary package, and a quartz porphyry hosted tungsten bearing quartz-stockwork, greisen orebody below 350m.
Excellent power, water and transport infrastructure in place.
Recently completed diamond drilling programme resulted in a revised JORC hard rock combined open cut and underground resource of 7.47mt @ 0.75% Sn and 0.3% Cu for 56,100 tonnes of contained tin and 22,200 tonnes of contained copper, plus 3.97mt @ 0.28% WO3
Total JORC hard rock resource contained tin increased by 15.8% and contained copper increased by 20.0%.
Open cut project resource tonnes increase by 128% to 1.89mt @ 0.95% Sn and 0.34% Cu.

Temengor Tin Project
==> picture [61 x 59] intentionally omitted <==
Elementos has signed an exclusive MOU with Empire Tin Mining Sdn Bhd to negotiate a farm-in and joint venture agreement on the Temengor tin project. The Temengor tin project consists of two exploration licences covering 1950 hectares.
Located within Peninsular Malaysia, approx. 260km north of Kuala Lumpur. Malaysia was the principal global tin producer until the mid 1980’s, predominantly from alluvial dredging operations.
The project area is located approximately 50km to the southeast of the Rahman Hydraulic Tin Mine.
==> picture [174 x 169] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [291 x 275] intentionally omitted <==
Temengor Tin Project
The Temengor Tin Mining Company was a London Stock Exchange listed company that operated from 1926 – 1935.
Operated as a hydraulic eluvial tin mine from 1926 – 1932.
Production hampered by poor water supplies and insufficient funding.
Plans were in place to convert from a hydraulic mine to a hard rock mine when the company was placed in administration in 1932.
Limited hard rock exploration carried out by AngloOriental Malaya until 1937.
Temengor largely forgotten since the mid 1930’s due to restricted access to the region.
Temengor Tin Project
Reconnaissance exploration has confirmed hard rock potential over an area of approximately 1km².
Historical hard rock tin grades to be confirmed with surface and underground rock chip sampling.
Tin mineralisation occurs as cassiterite within a sheeted quartz vein system on the margins of a granite.
==> picture [406 x 265] intentionally omitted <==
Cassiterite mineralisation is similar to the Rahman Hydraulic Tin Mine 50km to the north of Temengor. The Rahman Hydraulic Tin Mine has been operating for more than 100 years, currently producing over 2,200 tonnes of tin in concentrate per year from a hard rock open cut mining operation.
