This transaction increases Metals X Limited's beneficial interest to 22.45% of the Company's issued share capital. The purchase was made through the Placing announced on 10 July 2024. The Company's focus is 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.

First Tin PLC is led by a team of renowned tin specialists and is committed to ethical, reliable, and sustainable tin production. The Company's projects in Germany and Australia have been de-risked significantly, with extensive work undertaken to date.

The rising demand and expected sustained deficit markets for tin make the Company's projects strategically important.
