Taronga Tin Project - EIS Exhibition Period Successfully Concluded

 

First Tin PLC, a tin development company advancing low-capex projects in
Australia and Germany, is pleased to announce its wholly owned subsidiary,
Taronga Mines Pty Ltd ("TMPL"), has concluded the public exhibition period for
its Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) as required for Development Approval
of the Taronga Tin Project in New South Wales, Australia.

 

During the four-week public consultation period, only 4 objections were
received.  As fewer than 50 objections were lodged, the project will now
proceed through the standard departmental approval process rather than
referral to the Independent Planning Commission (IPC), thereby significantly
reducing the likely permitting timeframes and cost to the Company.

 

This result represents one of the lowest objection levels seen for a State
Significant Development (SSD) metalliferous greenfield mining project in NSW
in recent years.

 

First Tin CEO, Bill Scotting, commented:

 

"This is an excellent outcome and demonstrates a clear sign of strong
community support for the Taronga Tin Project.  Our local team has worked
extremely hard to build trust and to engage with the community, while our
specialist consultants, led by RW Corkery, have ensured all environmental
aspects were rigorously assessed and addressed.

 

"Given the challenges faced by other major projects in NSW in recent times,
this outcome is very reassuring and represents a significant derisking
milestone for the future development of Australia's next tin mine."

Notes to Editors

First Tin PLC is an ethical, reliable, and sustainable tin production company
led by a team of renowned tin specialists. The Company is focused on becoming
a tin supplier in conflict-free, low political risk jurisdictions through the
rapid development of high value, low capex tin assets in Germany and
Australia, which have been de-risked significantly, with extensive work
undertaken to date.

Tin is a critical metal, vital in any plan to decarbonise and electrify the
world, yet Europe and North America have very little supply. Rising demand,
together with shortages, is expected to lead tin to experience sustained
deficit markets for the foreseeable future.

 

First Tin's goal is to use best-in-class environmental standards to bring two
tin mines into production in three years, providing provenance of supply to
support the current global clean energy and technological revolution.
