First Tin Plc ("First Tin")

On 25 October 2023 First Tin provided an update on its Definitive Feasibility Study ("DFS") at its Taronga Tin Project in Australia. First Tin announced a key breakthrough in its mineral process test work which should significantly reduce the capital and operating costs of the mine.

The results of this test work have allowed First Tin to simplify the mineral processing flowsheet by rejecting waste material at an earlier stage and meaning the proposed plant can handle a greater throughput. The lower operating and capital costs per tonne of ore mined, together with the increase in the resource at Taronga through successful exploration have allowed First Tin to double the proposed throughput of the operation to 5 million tonnes of ore per annum producing around 3,500 tonnes of tin per annum.

The feasibility study on Taronga is due for completion during the first quarter of 2024 with the feasibility study on First Tin's second project, the Tellerhauser tin mine in Germany expected mid 2024.

Despite this positive update on Taronga the shares of First Tin fell 27% on the London Stock Exchange during October 2023.
