ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
Presentation to Noosa Mining & Exploration Conference Correction
19[th] July 2019
Elementos Limited advises the following errors in the presentation to the Noosa Mining & Exploration Conference lodged by the company on 17[th] July 2019.
-
The peer comparison on Slide 4 lacks transparency and is not acceptable under ASX’s most recent guidance.
-
The metal equivalences stated in Slide 7 are not compliant with Clause 50 of the JORC Code.
-
Near term production forecasts in Slide 7 do not state whether they are a production target or an aspirational target.
-
The exploration target for Oropesa stated in Slide 10 does not comply with Clause 17 of the JORC Code.
The presentation has been modified and re-issued with the following changes.
-
The peer comparison (Slide 4) has been removed from the presentation.
-
The metal equivalences statement has been removed from the presentation.
-
The near term production forecasts in Slide 7 are stated as an aspirational target. This statement has also been added to the Growth & Development Strategy in Slide 13 of the original presentation.
-
Reference to the following release to the ASX ( “Oropesa Exploration Target” released on 4[th] February 2019) has been included in Slide 10. In addition the following statement has been included in Slide 10. “ The Exploration Target is conceptual in nature and therefore is an approximation. There has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource”. The Cautionary Statements in Slide 18 of the original presentation now include a statement stating that the Competent Person confirms the form and context in which the Competent Person’s findings on the Exploration Target are presented have not been materially modified from the date of announcement (4[th] Feb 2019).

OROPESA RESOURCE
Oropesa is a replacement ore body that is located within a stacked and folded sequence of sandstone and conglomerate of Carboniferous age. The ore body occurs within the sandstone at the boundary between the two different rock types. The ore body consist of cassiterite (tin) mineralisation associated with sulphides. The sulphides can be detected using Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical exploration methods.
- *5 - “Oropesa Exploration Target” released on 4[th] February 2019
Oropesa exploration target estimated at between 35-51mt @ 0.46 to 0.62% Sn
- The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature and therefore is an approximation. There has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource.
