Managing Director Peter Blight said: "I am pleased with the results to date from the Heemskirk Tin Fast Start Study. In particular, reduction of the development time to first ore production to 6 months and at higher grade than previously estimated are significant positives. Scaling down mine development and the size of the processing plant also reduces the initial capital commitment to A$47.5m and reduces execution risk for the project. The Board's confidence in the project is reflected in the recent application for a Mining Lease over the Heemskirk tin deposits. "

Overview
Stellar Resources Limited (ASX:SRZ "Stellar" or the "Company") is the 100% owner of the Heemskirk project which has a JORC Resource of 6.28mt at 1.14% tin (see Mineral Resource Statement for detail). The Heemskirk Tin Project is the highest grade undeveloped tin project listed on the ASX.
Heemskirk is a world class tin project located near Zeehan in the prolific mining district of northwest Tasmania. It is located within 18 kilometres of Australia's oldest and largest tin mine Rension Bell and has access to excellent infrastructure (see Figure 1).

Figure 1: Location of Heemskirk tin project relative to other mines, northwest Tasmania
During the quarter, work continued on a Fast Start Study (FSS) with the aim of determining the lowest cost and quickest approach to first production from the Heemskirk Tin Project.
The Lower Queen Hill (LQH) Indicated Mineral Resource of 1.02mt grading 1.29% tin (see Mineral Resource Statement) was selected as the first stage of a sequential development of the Heemskirk deposits. LQH's close proximity to the planned portal was a key reason for its selection (see Figure 2). In addition, the FSS has shown that there are several other benefits from developing LQH first:
- higher initial ore grade,
- quicker access to ore,
- access for Severn drill-out
- reduced capital cost and
- reduced project risk.
Adopting a sequential approach to development has limited the rate of underground ore development. Accordingly, the 600,000 tpa treatment rate assumed for the processing plant in the optimised prefeasibility study (OPFS) was reduced to 200,000 tpa for the FSS.

Fast Start Study Scope1
Several consultants prepared reports on various aspects of the study with the aim of minimising capital and operating costs.
- Mining One completed a mining study focused on a 5 year production life for LQH.
- Worley Parsons assessed expected metallurgical performance of LQH using test results provided by ALS Burnie on diamond drill hole ZQ125.
- Worley Parsons also provided estimated operating costs for the process plant.
- Mincore provided capital cost estimates for the downsized process plant.
The results to date represent an assessment of what a fast start development would look like. As such they can be compared to results from the PFS and OPFS in terms of pre-production capital and operating costs.
A broader comparison with the PFS and OPFS is limited as the FSS does not include the larger Severn and higher grade Montana deposits. The intention of a fast start is to get into production quickly so that the Severn and Montana deposits can be more extensively sampled from underground as opposed to a slower and more expensive drill-out from surface. Another advantage of the fast start approach is that cash flow generated from LQH could finance access to the Severn deposit. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 The Fast Start Study referred to in this report is based on low-level technical and economic assessments and is insufficient to support estimation of Ore Reserves or to provide assurance of an economic development case at this stage or to provide certainty that the conclusions of the Study will be realised.

Increased Head Grade
The FSS mining study demonstrated an increase in head grade to 1.23% tin compared with 1.06% tin estimated for the PFS. The FSS Mining Inventory of 0.88mt at 1.23% tin developed by Mining One assumes 10% dilution at zero grade and 10% mining loss.
Deducting the FSS Mining Inventory from that of the PFS leaves a residual Mining Inventory of 3.07mt grading 1.01% tin (see ASX release dated 24 July 2013 "Pre-feasibility Study Advances Heemskirk Tin" for a description of the parameters defining the PFS Mining Inventory).
Access to Ore in 6 Months
The mining study has achieved one of the main goals of the FSS by reducing access to development ore from 12 months under the OPFS to 6 months. This was achieved by re-designing the decline and associated sumps, stockpiles, vertical development and ore access to focus only on LQH. It also assumes that single heading development can progress at 180m/month as assumed in the OPFS.
There were also changes to the mining and fill method to optimise ore recovery to a vertical depth of 260m and minimise development costs. The LQH mining plan uses a combination of transverse, long hole and Avoca stoping (see Figure 3) with cemented rock fill and rock fill. This approach should significantly reduce fill costs.

Figure 3: LQH mining methods

Reduced Capital Cost
Under the FSS assumptions, overall pre-production capital cost is expected to decline by 57% from the OPFS level to A$47.5m (see Table 1).
| Capital Item | PFS | OPFS | FSS | FSS Capital Saving% | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Treatment Rate | ktpa | 600 | 600 | 200 | -67 |
| Mine development | $m | 29.0 | 28.8 | 10.4 | -64 |
| Process plant | $m | 75.5 | 64.4 | 25.3 | -61 |
| Tailings facility | $m | 7.2 | 4.8 | 2.8 | -42 |
| Working capital | $m | 10.4 | 8.6 | 6.5 | -24 |
| Contingency | $m | 4.5 | 3.7 | 2.5 | -32 |
| Total | $m | 126.6 | 110.3 | 47.5 | -57 |
Table 1: Pre-production Capital Cost Comparison
The driver of savings is the 67% reduction in treatment rate. Mine development cost declined by 64% by eliminating any development related to the more distal deposits and reconfiguring the decline to access LQH in the most efficient manner. Scaling down of the processing plant provided the opportunity to consider a more modular design with a smaller foot print, reduced civil works and savings in engineering. Reductions in tailings storage cost, working capital and contingency were less significant.
Marginal Reduction in Unit Operating Cost
Total unit cash operating costs are 2% lower under the FSS scenario at A$14,677/t relative to the OPFS outcome of US$14,927/t (see Table 2).
| Comparative 4 year Average | Unit | PFS | OPFS | FSS | Cost Change |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Operating Unit Cost | % | ||||
| Mining | A$/t ore | 80 | 75 | 70 | -7 |
| Processing | A$/t ore | 35 | 40 | 44 | 10 |
| TC/RC, transport, royalty | A$/t ore | 23 | 24 | 25 | 3 |
| Administration | A$/t ore | 2 | 2 | 3 | 55 |
| Total cash costs | A$/t ore | 140 | 141 | 142 | 1 |
| Total cash costs | A$/t tin | 15,705 | 14,927 | 14,677 | -2 |
| Total cash costs @ 0.76 AUDUSD | US$/t tin | 11,936 | 11,345 | 11,154 | -2 |
Table 2: Operating Cost Comparison
Mining has generated all of the savings with the adoption of more efficient mining methods for LQH, reduced fill costs and lower haulage costs. Unit processing cost is 10% higher in the FSS case when compared to the OPFS, largely because labour cost does not decline as much as the cost of consumables following the reduction in scale.
The FSS unit cash cost of A$14,677/t of tin in concentrate is 2% lower than the OPFS estimate due to the higher grade (1.23% tin) of ore processed. At the current LME spot price of A$23,564/t, and cash operating costs of A$14,677/t the project has a cash margin of 38% or A$8,887/t.

Fast Start Conclusions and Recommendations
The study so far has met the key goals of:
- quicker access to ore development time to first ore reduced by 6 months to 6 months,
- lower capital cost 57% reduction to $47.5m due to downsizing and modularisation and
- reduced risk smaller capital requirement and less pressure on mine development.
In addition, unit operating costs are similar to those of the OPFS on a $/t of ore basis and 2% lower on a $/t tin in concentrate. The average cash margin over the 5 year life of LQH is 38% which makes the FSS highly profitable even at today's historically low A$/t tin price.
Several other options to enhance value were briefly considered during the FSS but require more work before they can be adopted into a definitive feasibility study. These include:
- Simplification of the processing plant to only produce a gravity concentrate with tin fines stored for recovery at a later date. This option could reduce capital and operating cost by a further 10% but would require additional drill core and metallurgical testing to maximise expected gravity recovery for LQH.
- Adding production from a high grade tin zone in the Severn deposit. This scenario could add significant value to the FSS outcome with a modest amount of additional underground mine development. Drilling to date has demonstrated the presence of higher grade tin near the upper edge of the Severn deposit. Infill drilling is required to upgrade this resource to support a definitive feasibility study.
- Processing in existing plants that lie within economic trucking distance of the Heemskirk deposits. These options may provide lower capital cost outcomes but would increase estimated operating costs.
Stellar plans to develop a work program to test the options outlined above and to move from the FSS into a definitive feasibility study.
Mining Lease Application
The positive outcomes of the OPFS in 2015 and more recently the FSS, have provided the impetus to convert the current title over the Heemskirk tin deposits into a Mining Lease (ML). On 21 July 2016, Stellar announced to the ASX that an application for a ML over RL5/1997 (Heemskirk tin deposits) from its wholly owned subsidiary Columbus Metals Limited had been accepted by Mineral Resources Tasmania (MRT), the mining department of State Growth Tasmania.
An ML is a more secure form of title as it upgrades the status of ownership from a right to explore under an RL to an exclusive right to minerals. Importantly, the duration of the title can be extended well beyond the current 2 years of an RL and will likely be determined by the potential mine life of the project, including the pre-development and post-production rehabilitation periods.
Conditions for the granting of an ML will be determined following a period of consultation with other state government departments and stakeholders in the project.

EXPLORATION
During the quarter, all tenements held by Stellar Resources where reviewed for lithium and cobalt exploration potential. In all cases, historical assays and a review of previous work showed that the potential was limited. Tailings from test work at Heemskirk tin showed levels of lithium that are too low for economic extraction using current technology.
Tin
EL6/2014 Stonehenge (TAS) (Stellar 100%)
The Stonehenge EL lies immediately to the south of the Heemskirk deposits and contains similar geology and structure. A review of historical diamond drilling records show that low grade tin mineralisation along with lead and zinc was intersected in narrow veins associated with faults near the Spray mine on the northeast edge of the licence. Further geological investigation is required to identify drilling targets.
EL1/2004 Ramsay (TAS) (Stellar 100%)
Soil sampling has closed off a 600m by 300m zone containing tin in soil assays in excess of 300ppm. The tin in soil target occurs over a quartz-tourmaline altered granite porphyry which occurs on the northern edge of the Meredith Granite. Stellar continues to review potential funding options to finance a drilling program over the geochemical target.
Copper/Gold
EL 5125 Cleanskin Swamp and EL 5126 long Creek (SA) (Stellar 100%)
Stellar is seeking a joint venture partner to explore the iron sulphide copper gold potential of these central Gawler Range tenements. Four targets have been identified with only one partly drilled to date.
Uranium
EL 5426 Midgee (SA) (Stellar 100%)
Samphire Uranium Limited has the right to earn a 73% interest in 40% of the tenement by identifying a JORC compliant uranium resource. No exploration was undertaken during the quarter.
EL 5307 Cowell (SA) (Stellar 100%)
This tenement is prospective for sedimentary uranium, copper-gold and graphite. No exploration was conducted on the tenement during the period. However, exploration joint venture options continue to be investigated.
CORPORATE
Cash Position
As at 30 June 2016, Stellar Resources Limited held cash and term deposits of A$1.6 million. Expenditure during the quarter was $162,787.

TIN MARKET
The LME tin price has risen by 38% to US$18,200/t on July 15th from its January 18th low of US$13,235/t. During this period LME stocks have declined by 3% to 5,992t reflecting an already historically low level of stocks (see chart following).
Drivers of the tin price recovery appear to be:
- Recovery from an over-sold position at the tin price low of US$13,235/t, 65% of tin producers where unprofitable according to the most recent ITRI tin producer cost curve.
- Improved investor sentiment towards all metals gold has lead the way in the price recovery with base metals following.
- Reduced exports from Indonesia exports are down 25% in the first 6 months of 2016 compared with the same period in 2015.
- Seasonal decline in Chinese imports of tin concentrates from Myanmar in June 2016
- ITRI predict an overall 5% decline in global refined tin production in 2016 compared with 2015 due to reduced concentrate availability – average smelter utilisation rate is 47%.
