MANNAR PROJECT DRILLING COMPLETED ENCOUNTERING SIGNIFICANT HEAVY MINERAL CONCENTRATIONS PRIORITY AREAS FOR RESOURCE EXPANSION DRILLING IDENTIFIED

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Drilling by the project vendor has encountered significant heavy mineral concentrations up to 3 kilometres inland from the previously reported resource envelope.

  • High grade heavy mineral occurrences have been noted up to 400m landward of the previously reported JORC inferred resource envelope on the adjacent mainland.

  • Preparation of samples from the 2016 drilling have now been completed and will be consigned to a specialist mineral sands laboratory.

  • The Company anticipates being able to lodge a notice of meeting seeking shareholder approval for the acquisition of the Sri Lankan heavy minerals sands projects this month.

The Board of Titanium Sands Limited (ASX:TSL) (“TSL”) is pleased to report that it has received an update from the Mannar Island mineral sands project vendor that concentrations of heavy minerals have been identified at surface in locations up to 450m landward of the previously reported JORC resource envelope at the Mannar Island Project in Sri Lanka (Figure 1).

Figure 2 shows high concentrations of heavy mineral sands at a location (HG1 in Figure 1) 250m inland of the previously reported JORC resource envelope.* In another location on the mainland shoreline north east of Mannar Island (HG2 in Figure 1) heavy mineral accumulations have been observed from the coast up to 450m inland.

A panned concentrate sample from 400m inland is shown in Figure 3.

As a result priority drilling zones have been defined to expand the resource envelope further landward by 400 to 500m at three locations with the total area of proposed drilling exceeding 10km[2] (Figure 1). Following completion of the acquisition of Srinel Holdings Ltd (“Srinel”) it is anticipated that TSL will commence this drilling in the June quarter of this year.

Srinel has advised that during 2016 a total of 608 drill holes (of 1,000 in total) were drilled on the tenure that is to be acquired by TSL. Visual logging of the drilling has identified areas of heavy mineral concentration up to 3 Km inland from the previously reported JORC inferred resource envelope along the north east shoreline of Mannar Island (Figure 1). This area is contained within the expanded project area (as announced 29[th] January 2016).

Samples from these 608 holes are those to be sent for laboratory analysis. Accordingly an amended collar and total depth list of drill holes is appended here and replaces any previous tabulation of the 2016 drilling (Table 1).

*An initial JORC inferred mineral resource of 10.3 Mt with total heavy mineral (THM) of 11.7% compiled by independent consultants was reported in full to the Australian Securities Exchange on the 22 April 2015. This resource was based on a historical drill hole data base of 785 auger drill holes and from the 115 holes drilled in early 2015. The drilling and the defined resource envelope was largely confined to within 150m of the Mannar Island shoreline. The Company confirms that this resource statement remains current in regards to the areas covered by the drilling used in the resource model.

Except where indicated, exploration results above have been compiled by James Searle BSc (hons), PhD, a Member of the Australian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, with over 34 years of experience in metallic and energy minerals exploration and development, and as such has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposits under consideration as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”. Dr Searle is the Managing Director of Titanium Sands Limited and consents to the inclusion of this technical information in the format and context in which it appears.

Appendix 1 JORC TABLE 1 Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)

All drilling, sampling and sample splitting procedures were designed and audited by Dr James Searle, the Competent Person named in the body of this report.

Criteria **Explanation ** Commentary
Sampling
techniques
• Nature and quality of sampling (e.g.
cut channels, random chips, or
specific specialised industry
standard measurement tools
appropriate to the minerals under
investigation, such as down hole
gamma sondes, or handheld XRF
instruments, etc.). These examples
should not be taken as limiting the
broad meaning of sampling.
• Include reference to measures
taken to ensure sample
representivity and the appropriate
calibration of any measurement
tools or systems used.
• Aspects of the determination of
mineralisation that are Material to
the Public Report. In cases where
‘industry standard’ work has been
done this would be relatively simple
(e.g. ‘reverse circulation drilling was
used to obtain 1 m samples from
which 3 kg was pulverised to
produce a 30 g charge for fire
assay’). In other cases more
explanation may be required, such
as where there is coarse gold that
has inherent sampling problems.
Unusual commodities or
mineralisation types (e.g. submarine
nodules) may warrant disclosure of
detailedinformation.

100% of recovered sample
collected, riffle split, and
bagged at drill site.

Sample interval down hole
every 0.5m or part interval.

No sampling below water
table.
Drilling
techniques
• Drill type (e.g. core, reverse
circulation, open-hole hammer,
rotary air blast, auger, Bangka,
sonic, etc.) and details (e.g. core
diameter, triple or standard tube,
depth of diamond tails, face-
sampling bit or other type, whether
core is oriented and if so, by what
method, etc.).

Hand auger , vertical, Dormer
type shell auger 75mm, 608
holes, maximum depth 6m

All holes vertical.
Criteria **Explanation ** Commentary
Drill sample
recovery
• Method of recording and assessing
core and chip sample recoveries
and results assessed.
• Measures taken to maximise
sample recovery and ensure
representative nature of the
samples.
• Whether a relationship exists
between sample recovery and grade
and whether sample bias may have
occurred due to preferential
loss/gainof fine/coarsematerial.

Weight of sample recovered
logged against estimate of
100% recovery weight.

For the hand auger holes, re-
entry depth of auger tip noted
against depth achieved before
auger withdrawn to recover
sample. Hole abandoned if
more 3cm of fall back in hole
noted.
Logging • Whether core and chip samples
have been geologically and
geotechnically logged to a level of
detail to support appropriate Mineral
Resource estimation, mining studies
and metallurgical studies.
• Whether logging is qualitative or
quantitative in nature. Core (or
costean, channel, etc.) photography.
• The total length and percentage of
the relevant intersections logged.

Recovered samples logged in
standardized format for all
relevant visual parameters
including sediment, rounding,
sorting etc.

Logging of visual parameters
qualitative but referenced to
standard parameter sheets.

All drill hole samples logged at
drill site.
Sub-sampling
techniques
and sample
preparation
• If core, whether cut or sawn and
whether quarter, half or all core
taken.
• If non-core, whether riffled, tube
sampled, rotary split, etc. and
whether sampled wet or dry.
• For all sample types, the nature,
quality and appropriateness of the
sample preparation technique.
• Quality control procedures adopted
for all sub-sampling stages to
maximise representivity of samples.
• Measures taken to ensure that the
sampling is representative of the in
situ material collected, including for
instance results for field
duplicate/second-half sampling.
• Whether sample sizes are
appropriate to the grain size of the
_material being sampled. _

Samples split at drilling site
using a riffle splitter, one pass
split.

12 chute riffle splitter. Sample
loaded evenly into splitter on
top of removable baffle to
ensure optimal split across the
splitter.

Custody chain of samples
maintained from drill site to
controlled storage.
Quality of
assay data
and
laboratory
tests
• The nature, quality and
appropriateness of the assaying and
laboratory procedures used and
whether the technique is considered
partial or total.
• For geophysical tools,
spectrometers, handheld XRF
instruments, etc., the parameters
used in determining the analysis
including instrument make and
model, reading times, calibrations
factors applied and their derivation,
etc.
• Nature of quality control procedures
adopted (e.g. standards, blanks,
duplicates, external laboratory

Sample not yet consigned to
laboratory.
Criteria **Explanation ** Commentary
checks) and whether acceptable
levels of accuracy (i.e. lack of bias)
and precision have been
_established. _
Verification of
sampling and
assaying
• The verification of significant
intersections by either independent
or alternative company personnel.
• The use of twinned holes.
• Documentation of primary data, data
entry procedures, data verification,
data storage (physical and
electronic) protocols.
• Discuss any adjustment to assay
data.

Prior to the completion of the
program the following
verification procedures will be
undertaken.
1. Independently supervised
repeat drilling will twin
between 5 and 10% of holes
showing significant heavy
mineral mineralisation.
2. One in 20 duplicate samples
from splitting and sample
preparation will be will be
submitted for separate
analysis.
Location of
data points
• Accuracy and quality of surveys
used to locate drill holes (collar and
down-hole surveys), trenches, mine
workings and other locations used in
Mineral Resource estimation.
• Specification of the grid system
used.
• Quality and adequacy of
topographic control.

Drill collars located using GPS
WGD84 to an accuracy
typically of better than 6m

Topographic control to be
determined from subsequent
survey and DTM tie in.
Data spacing
and
distribution
• Data spacing for reporting of
Exploration Results.
• Whether the data spacing and
distribution is sufficient to establish
the degree of geological and grade
continuity appropriate for the
Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve
estimation procedure(s) and
classifications applied.
• Whether sample compositing has
_been applied. _

Drilling spacing varying from
50m to 100m along lines at
800m nominal separations
along the mineralisation trend.
Orientation of
data in
relation to
geological
structure
• Whether the orientation of sampling
achieves unbiased sampling of
possible structures and the extent to
which this is known, considering the
deposit type.
• If the relationship between the
drilling orientation and the
orientation of key mineralised
structures is considered to have
introduced a sampling bias, this
should be assessed and reported if
material.

Shoreline concentrated heavy
minerals when preserved by
net coastal progradation
seaward form strands of
mineralisation that can vary
from 10s to hundreds of
metres wide but many
hundreds or metres and
kilometres long. Drill lines are
therefore optimally oriented
across the trend direction of
the paleo shoreline positions.
Drill hole spacing along the
lines were designed to find HM
strands as narrow as 25 to
50m wide. Separation of the
drill lines along the paleo
shoreline orientations reflects
the much greater along shore
dimensions of any potentially
economic strands.
Criteria **Explanation ** Commentary
Sample
security
• The measures taken to ensure
sample security.

Custody of samples
documented, and integrity of
packagingmonitored.
Audits or
reviews
• The results of any audits or reviews
of sampling techniques and data.

Duplicated sample splits and
samples from twinned holes
will be used to demonstrate
QA/QC

Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results

(Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section.)

Criteria **Explanation **
Mineral
tenement and
land tenure
status
• Type, reference name/number,
location and ownership including
agreements or material issues with
third parties such as joint ventures,
partnerships, overriding royalties,
native title interests, historical sites,
wilderness or national park and
environmental settings.
• The security of the tenure held at
the time of reporting along with any
known impediments to obtaining a
_licence to operate inthe area. _

Granted exploration licenses.

No known overriding interests
at this stage.

Normal state royalty regime.
Exploration
done by other
parties
• Acknowledgment and appraisal of
exploration by other parties.

Previously reported to the
ASX.
Geology • Deposit type, geological setting and
style of mineralisation.

Holocene to Modern coastal
sand deposit hosted heavy
mineralsands
Drill hole
Information
• A summary of all information
material to the understanding of the
exploration results including a
tabulation of the following
information for all Material drill
holes:

easting and northing of the drill
hole collar

elevation or RL (Reduced Level
– elevation above sea level in
metres) of the drill hole collar

dip and azimuth of the hole

down hole length and
interception depth

hole length.
• If the exclusion of this information is
justified on the basis that the
information is not Material and this
exclusion does not detract from the
understanding of the report, the
Competent Person should clearly
_explain why this is the case. _

Tabulation of all drill hole
information contained within
Table 1 of the announcement
above, with the exception of
RL which will be provided
later when a DTM is
available. At this time collar
elevation is considered not
material due to the lack of
significant elevation changes
over the area.
Data
aggregation
methods
• In reporting Exploration Results,
weighting averaging techniques,
maximum and/or minimum grade
truncations (e.g. cutting of high
grades) and cut-offgrades are

Criteria **Explanation **
usually Material and should be
stated.
• Where aggregate intercepts
incorporate short lengths of high
grade results and longer lengths of
low grade results, the procedure
used for such aggregation should
be stated and some typical
examples of such aggregations
should be shown in detail.
• The assumptions used for any
reporting of metal equivalent values
_should be clearly stated. _
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept
lengths
• These relationships are particularly
important in the reporting of
Exploration Results.
• If the geometry of the mineralisation
with respect to the drill hole angle is
known, its nature should be
reported.
• If it is not known and only the down
hole lengths are reported, there
should be a clear statement to this
effect (e.g. ‘down hole length, true
_width not known’). _

Heavy mineral zones in
beach sediments are flat or
only very shallowly dipping.
All drill holes were vertical.
Diagrams • Appropriate maps and sections
(with scales) and tabulations of
intercepts should be included for
any significant discovery being
reported These should include, but
not be limited to a plan view of drill
hole collar locations and
_appropriate sectional views. _

Plans of drill hole locations
historical and subject of this
announcement are provided.

Sectional representations not
considered relevant as the
drill depths were rarely more
than 2m.
Balanced
reporting
• Where comprehensive reporting of
all Exploration Results is not
practicable, representative reporting
of both low and high grades and/or
widths should be practiced to avoid
misleading reporting of Exploration
_Results. _

All holes drilled on the
controlled tenure are
contained in Table 1.
Other
substantive
exploration
data
• Other exploration data, if
meaningful and material, should be
reported including (but not limited
to): geological observations;
geophysical survey results;
geochemical survey results; bulk
samples – size and method of
treatment; metallurgical test results;
bulk density, groundwater,
geotechnical and rock
characteristics; potential deleterious
_or contaminating substances. _

Not applicable.

further work (e.g. tests for lateral
extensions or depth extensions or
large-scale step-out drilling).
