First Tin PLC has announced the final results from its Tin Beetle prospect, located approximately 9km from its Taronga DFS project. The assays have confirmed mineralisation over the entire 2.3km tested so far, validating the company's tenure in the Emmaville area as a "Tin District" with potential for satellite deposits to the Taronga deposit. The Tin Beetle prospect has shown wide intervals of tin mineralisation with narrower zones of higher-grade mineralisation. The intercepts are similar to early drill intercepts at the main Taronga mineralisation. Tin Beetle appears to have lower copper and silver content but higher zinc content than Taronga. The prospect could potentially be mined as an open pit and taken to a central milling facility at Taronga. This concept could significantly add to the annual tin production and/or increase the overall mine life of the Taronga tin project. Follow-up drilling is planned for next year after the completion of the Taronga DFS. The project is owned by First Tin's Australian subsidiary, Taronga Mines Pty Ltd.
