CS PROJECT UPDATE - CALTRANS APPROVAL TO AUTHORIZED LIST

 

Further to its announcement of 11 May 2022, Sunrise Resources plc is pleased
to advise that,    its CS Natural Pozzolan has now been conditionally
approved by the California Department of Transport ("Caltrans") for use in
California State infrastructure projects, having successfully passed
Caltrans's own independent compliance testing.

 

CS Natural Pozzolan is now listed on the Caltrans List of Approved Materials
for Cementitious Materials for use in Concrete(1.)

 

Caltrans is the Government body responsible for the award of State funded
infrastructure construction projects in California. Caltrans Standard
Specifications for concrete mandate the use of supplementary cementitious
materials ("SCMs") such as natural pozzolan in order to improve the durability
and sustainability of its concrete structures. Further information on the role
of natural pozzolan in sustainable development can be found in the Company's
news release of 9 May 2022.

 

It has only recently become possible for new sources of construction materials
to be approved on a conditional basis.  Approval is conditional until six
monthly test results from production runs have been submitted by the Company
showing compliance with specifications. In the case of natural pozzolan, it
must meet the specifications for AASHTO M295(2) and ASTM C1567(3,). In order
to give its conditional approval, Caltrans has successfully tested samples of
CS Natural Pozzolan for compliance.

 

Commenting today, Executive Chairman Patrick Cheetham said:  "I am delighted
that Caltrans has conditionally approved the CS Natural Pozzolan. This is good
news for the CS Project. Whilst we were confident that the CS Natural Pozzolan
would pass Caltrans's testing procedures, this is an important step forward as
many concrete specifiers look to this list as an independent endorsement when
specifying for a wider range of non-Caltrans projects."
