Cautionary statement

This Presentation provides general background information about Elementos Limited’s (“Company’s”) activities. That information is current at the date of this Presentation and remains subject to change without notice. The Company may, but is under no obligation to, update or supplement this Presentation. The information is a summary and does not purport to be complete nor does it contain all the information which would be required in a disclosure document prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (“Corporations Act”). It should be read in conjunction with the Company’s past announcements released to ASX Limited (“ASX”) and available through the Company’s website at [insert].

This Presentation is not (and nothing in it should be construed as) an offer, invitation, solicitation or recommendation with respect to the subscription for, purchase or sale of any security in any jurisdiction, and neither this document nor anything in it shall form the basis of any contract or commitment. This Presentation is not a prospectus, disclosure statement or other offering document under Australian law or under any other law and will not be lodged with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission. None of the information in this Presentation constitutes an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities in the United States. This Presentation may not be released, published or distributed directly or indirectly, to persons in the United States. The release, publication or distribution of this Presentation (including an electronic copy) in other jurisdictions outside Australia may also be restricted by law. If you come into possession of this Presentation, you should observe these restrictions as non-compliance with these restrictions may contravene applicable securities laws.

The Optimisation Study (Study) referred to in this announcement has been undertaken for the purpose of assessing the technical and economic viability of developing the Oropesa Tin Project. The Study has been completed to an overall Scoping Study level of accuracy of +/- 35%. It should be noted that some the work streams in the Study have been undertaken to a more detailed standard of evaluation and definition.

The Study is preliminary in nature, it does include 6% of Inferred Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Indicated or Measured Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves, and there is no certainty that the Study outcomes will be realised during operations or further studies. Mineral Resources are not Ore Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part of the Mineral Resources estimated will be converted into an Ore Reserves.

While the estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues, the Company is not aware of any such issues. The quantity and grade of reported Inferred Resources are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define these Inferred Resources as an Indicated or Measured Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in upgrading them to an Indicated or Measured Mineral Resource category.

The Study outcomes, Production Target and forecast financial information are based on information that are considered to be at Scoping Study level. The information applied in the Study is insufficient to support the estimation of Ore Reserves. While each of the modifying factors was considered and applied, there is no certainty of eventual conversion to Ore Reserves or that the Production Target will be realised. Further exploration work and evaluation studies are required before Elementos will be in a position to estimate any Ore Reserves or provide any assurance of an economic development case.

Given the uncertainties involved, investors should not make any investment decisions based solely on the results of the Study. The Study is based on the Measured, Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources Estimate compiled and reviewed by Mr Chris Grove (Announced to the ASX on the 8th November 2021), who is a Member of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and is a Principal Geologist employed by Measured Group Pty Ltd. Mr Chris Grove has sufficient experience that is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity being undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the ‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources. Mr Chris Grove consents to the inclusion in the Presentation of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears. Elementos is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in that release. All material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the Mineral Resource estimates in that ASX release continue to apply and have not materially changed.

==> picture [79 x 13] intentionally omitted <==

Of the Mineral Resources scheduled for extraction in the Study mine production plan, approximately 21% are classified as Measured, 67% as Indicated and 6% as Inferred, with 6% Unclassified (0% grade – dilution). There is a low level of geological confidence associated with Inferred Mineral Resources and there is no certainty that further exploration work will result in the determination of Indicated Mineral Resources or that the production target itself will be realised. Inferred Resources do not contribute to the production schedule in the first 6 years of operations and only 1% in the first nine years of the proposed development. The production plan includes Inferred Resources in the latter stages of the production schedule, as illustrated in the Figure-16 ~~..~~

This release contains a series of forward-looking statements. The words “expect”, “potential”, “intend”, “estimate” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any of the forward-looking statements in this release that are not a guarantee of future performance.

Statements in this release regarding the Elementos business or proposed business, which are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These include Mineral Resource Estimates, metal prices, capital and operating costs, changes in project parameters as plans continue to be evaluated, the continued availability of capital, general economic, market or business conditions, and statements that describe the future plans, objectives or goals of Elementos, including words to the effect that Elementos or its management expects a stated condition or result to occur. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based on estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Elementos, are inherently subject to significant technical, business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties and contingencies. Since forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature, they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results in each case could differ materially from those currently anticipated in such statements. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Elementos has concluded that it has a reasonable basis for providing these forward-looking statements and the forecast financial information included in this Presentation. This includes a reasonable basis to expect that it will be able to fund the development of the Oropesa Tin Project upon successful delivery of key development milestones. The detailed reasons for these conclusions are outlined throughout this ASX release and in Appendix 1 (JORC Code 2012, Table 1. Consideration of Modifying Factors) contained in [the announcement released to the ASX on 29 March 2022]. All material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the production target and forecast financial information contained in the Study continue to apply and have not materially changed.

While Elementos considers all of the material assumptions to be based on reasonable grounds, there is no certainty that they will prove to be correct or that the range of outcomes indicated by the Study will be achieved. To achieve the range of outcomes indicated in the Study, pre-production funding in excess of US$86m will likely be required. There is no certainty that Elementos will be able to source that amount of funding when required. Discussions with potential funders have confirmed that a project of this scale will be able to be funded with a combination of Debt and Equity. The company is confident that the capital costs are sufficiently low that raising the required equity will be possible. The company continues to have the full support of its existing largest shareholders and is working with potential offtake partners, brokers, senior debt providers, private equity firms and traditional funders to ensure that the Company will be in a position to fund the project as needed. It is also possible that such funding may only be available on terms that may be dilutive to or otherwise affect the value of Elementos’ shares. It is also possible that Elementos could pursue other value realisation strategies such as a sale, partial sale or joint venture of the Oropesa Tin Project. This could materially reduce Elementos’ proportionate ownership of, and corresponding funding liability, for the Oropesa Tin Project.

No Ore Reserve has been declared. This ASX release has been prepared in compliance with the current JORC Code (2012) and the ASX Listing Rules. All material assumptions, including sufficient progression of all JORC modifying factors, on which the Production Target and forecast financial information are based have been included in this ASX release.

  • LME tin spot prices briefly hit US$18k/t before Chinese COVID lockdowns ended, fundamental supply tightness has returned and resulted the tin price returning to ~US$29-33k/t.

  • Despite muted demand global tin markets have remained tight and forecast to remain in supply deficit for the rest of the decade which was in juxtaposition to the 2022 price drops, which appear to be associated with Chinese lockdowns.

  • Shanghai Metals market contract price remains +US$3,734/t (+13%) higher than the LME

  • Recent tin price recovery is attributed to supply issues in Myanmar and Indonesia (2 of 3 largest tin miners) and the increase in demand due to Chinese reopening post COVID lockdowns and the continued demand for electronics and green infrastructure (including solar, semi-conductors, circuit boards)

What Yunnan Tin had to say

  • On February 15 2023, Yunnan Tin Company Limited predicted that due to factors such as declining grades, mining technology limitations, and rising labour costs in major traditional tin mining areas around the world, output has shown a downward trend to varying degrees, and the average cost will continue to rise.

  • At the same time, due to the high industrial concentration of the tin industry, the capital expenditure in the early stage of mineral development has been insufficient for a long time, and due to the impact of the previous pandemic and inflation, the progress of related new mining projects has not been as expected.

  • In addition, the sharp fluctuations in the price of tin in recent years have also constrained the cost efficiency of mine development and investment enthusiasm.

  • In addition, insufficient supply of scrap and the technical issue also limited the supply of secondary resources to a certain extent. Tin ore supply is unlikely to grow noticeably in the next two years.

Technology and green infrastructure is driving tin demand growth

==> picture [79 x 13] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [75 x 7] intentionally omitted <==

  • The technology and green infrastructure solutions are driving global tin demand (growth rates forecast between 3-4%pa)[5] .

  • Growth in Solar, 5G and Electric Vehicles responsible for significant proportion of growth

  • Internet of Things (IoT) use of tin - connected cars/homes/wearables/entertainment/appliances

  • Global tin demand is forecast to increase 3-4%pa to service the technology revolution.

  • 3-4%pa growth (vs. historic 1.8%pa) is forecast to cause tin metal deficits ~30-40ktpa by 2025.

  • Global refined tin production is forecast to also grow, albeit currently at a lower rate than demand growth.

  • Existing tin mines are mostly producing from lower grade, diminishing reserves, requiring new investment into sector.

  • New investment is challenged due to majority of projects being either high CAPEX underground mines, hard rock mineralisation or located in risky jurisdictions.

  • Very few low risk Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) projects in global pipeline.

On 9 March 2022, the Junta de Andalucia (Andalucían Government) publicly announced high profile support for the Oropesa Tin Project, designating it the Spanish equivalent of a ‘State Significant . Project’ in Australia[7]

  • ✓ Oropesa is one of only seven significant mining projects added to the unit:

Approvals Update

On 20[th] June - MESPA received correspondence from the local department considering its Environmental Application, stating that they considered elements of the proposed mining project and treatment plant ( Project ) to be 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 its potential impact on the Oropesa Tin Project and plan the optimal pathway to licencing. This has included meetings with the Environmental Department, Mining Department, Project Accelerator Unit, Senior Government Officials (local, Provincial, Regional).

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

  • Sandfire Resources’ MATSA (Market Cap: ~A$2.8B)

  • Atalaya Mining, 4 projects (Owner of Rio Tinto Copper Mine) Market Cap: ~A$1.0B)

  • Minas de Alquife – Europe's Largest open-pit iron ore mine

The company submitted its official response to the referenced correspondence on Monday 17[th] June (in Spain). The company continues 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 modification are agreed and the way forward plan is ratified.

Our portfolio is critical Tin, tungsten, zinc, copper, and fluorite in demand.

==> picture [79 x 13] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [75 x 7] intentionally omitted <==

The minerals in our portfolio are rated “critical” by many major economies.

  • The international competition for critical minerals, including tin, tungsten, zinc, copper, and fluorite, is evidenced by major economies ‘critical minerals’ lists.

  • Uncertainty in international relations and changing geopolitical dynamics has seen the risk factors associated with securing these minerals grow significantly in importance for many developed economies.

Economies where our minerals are listed as “critical”.
