Abu Dabbab – Nuweibi Tantalum Project Non-conflict tantalum for several decades

Location: Red Sea Coast –Egypt
Resources: Abu Dabbab*44.5 million tonnes -Nuweibi*98 million tonnes -
TotalResource: 142.5 million tonnes*
Ore Reserves: million tonnes*30.24
Production: Based upon an initial mill feed of 2 million tonnes per year
Tantalum (Ta2O5) 650,000 pounds per year World's largest tantalum miner
Tinmetal 1,530 tonnesper year Significant additional revenue
Feldspar 1.5 million tonnes per year Significant additional revenue
Process waste 0.5 million tonnesper year 80% of all ore mined to be sold

Gippsland Limited is an Australian based company listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX: GIP), and also trades of the Frankfurt Deutsche Börse (DB: GIX). Through its subsidiary Tantalum Egypt JSC, it holds a controlling interest in the Abu Dabbab and Nuweibi tantalum-tin-feldspar projects via 30 year Mining Licences which can be extended for a further 30 years.

The 44.5 million tonne Abu Dabbab project is forecast to become the world's largest tantalum mine with an expected mine life in excess of 20 years. The nearby 98 million tonne Nuweibi deposit will extend this project life significantly.

The Abu Dabbab project is exceptional in that approximately 80% of all ore mined is expected to be sold, either in the form of tantalum, tin metal or feldspar. The contribution of by-products to revenue is expected to ensure the project sets a new global standard for low net cash cost of production for its tantalum products. Shipment of the Abu Dabbab tantalum product will not be constrained by IMO Class 7 (Radioactivity) regulations.

Gippsland Directors consider the Abu Dabbab project to be the world's most advanced new tantalum project, which is unique as it has the JORC Code compliant Resource base to sustain long-term, low-cost, non-conflict tantalum production for several decades.
