ABOUT CORNISH METALS
Cornish Metals is a dual-listed mineral
exploration and development company (AIM and TSX-V: CUSN) focused
on advancing the South Crofty high-grade, underground tin project
through to a construction decision, as well as exploring its
additional mineral rights, located in Cornwall, United Kingdom.
- South Crofty is
a historical, high-grade, underground tin mine that started
production in 1592 and continued operating until 1998 following
over 400 years of continuous production;
- The Project
possesses Planning Permission for underground mining (valid to
2071), to construct new processing facilities and all necessary
site infrastructure, and an Environmental Permit to dewater the
mine;
- South Crofty is
one of the highest grade tin Mineral Resources globally and
benefits from existing mine infrastructure including multiple
shafts that can be used for future operations;
- The 2024
Preliminary Economic Assessment for South Crofty validates the
Project’s potential (see news release dated April 30, 2024 and the
Technical Report entitled “South Crofty PEA”):
- US$201 million
after-tax NPV8% and 29.8% IRR
- 3-year after-tax
payback
- 4,700 tonnes
average annual tin production in years two through six
- Life of mine
all-in sustaining cost of US$13,660 /tonne of payable tin
- Total after-tax
cash flow of US$626 million from start of production
- Tin is a
Critical Mineral as defined by the UK, American, and Canadian
governments;
- Tin connects
almost all electronic and electrical infrastructure, making it
critical to the energy transition – responsible sourcing of
critical minerals and security of supply are key factors in the
energy transition and technology growth;
- Approximately
two-thirds of the tin mined today comes from China, Myanmar and
Indonesia;
- There is no
primary tin production in Europe or North America;
- South Crofty
benefits from strong local community, regional and national
government support.
- Cornish Metals
has a growing team of skilled people, local to Cornwall, and the
Project could generate up to 320 direct jobs.
The 2024 Preliminary Economic Assessment for
South Crofty is preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral
resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have
the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them
to be categorised as mineral reserves. There is no certainty that
the 2024 Preliminary Economic Assessment will be realised. Mineral
resources that are not mineral reserves do not have economic
viability.
