3 Tin International Limited (TIN) Tin International Limited (TIN) is a subsidiary of Deutsche Rohstoff AG, Germany, formed as a private Australian company focused on exploration and development of tin deposits in Germany ( Ore Mountains region) Through it`s subsidiary Sachsenzinn GmbH, TIN holds 100% of three German tin projects o Gottesberg, Sadisdorf and Geyer Gottesberg, Sadisdorf, and Geyer have a combined JORC* resource of 173,000 tonnes tin Deutsche Rohstoff AG 60% Other Investors 40% Tin International Limited (Australia) 100% Sachsenzinn GmbH (Germany) 100% 100% 100% Gottesberg Geyer Sadisdorf *Joint Ore Reserves Committee (Australia) 2

4 Attractive TIN Projects in Germany Exploration by TIN in German Ore Mountains started November 2011 Traditional European mining region with supporting government of Saxony No mining royalties for new projects and no restrictions on foreign ownership Excellent infrastructure and low mining cost structure Geyer Gottesberg Sadisdorf 3

5 Project Development Timeline Tin International has three projects in close proximity in the German Ore Mountains Sadisdorf is the smallest project and can be developed within the shortest timeframe Gottesberg offers significant upside for a large scale tin operation Project Category Tonnage Grade Sn Contained Sn Sadisdorf Inferred 3.4 Mt 0.44% 15,000 t Gottesberg Indicated Inferred 11 Mt 31 Mt 0.26% 0.27% 29,000 t 85,000 t Geyer Indicated 12 Mt 0.37% 44,000 t Total 57.4Mt 173,000 t Timeline Sadisdorf Resource Definition Feasibility Construct.

6 Gottesberg Breccia related greisen deposit Competent steeply dipping underground ore body at depths of 100m-800m Extensive drill program and underground exploration by GDR from 1965 to drill holes (17,800m) Underground drilling and sampling over top 300m Intended as replacement mine for Altenberg TIN completed 3 holes (1,060m) in 2011/12 to Confirm historic drilling results; Verify geometry of the deposit Licence valid until October can be further extended or transferred into a Mining Lease Geological model being updated prior to finalising next drill programme Category Mt Average Sn Grade (%) Contained Metal (Tonnes) Gottesberg JORC Resources (at 0.15% Sn cut-off) Indicated ,000 Inferred ,000 Total ,000 Gottesberg JORC Resources (at 0.35% Sn cut-off) Indicated ,000 Inferred ,000 Total ,000 5

7 Gottesberg Orebody is large, steeply dipping and competent Amenable to low-cost mechanised underground bulk mining (e,g. sub-level open stoping) Deposit is very similar to Altenberg mine which successfully operated mechanised sub-level caving GDR work identified straightforward gravity/flotation flow sheet (similar to Altenberg) with world-leading recoveries (80-85%) Metallurgical work by TIN (at ALS in Tasmania) confirmed GDR flow sheet concepts and design recoveries Potential plant sites available 6

8 Development Timeline Sadisdorf Project Development timeline based on German Mining Law Next Steps (approx. 4 years) o Exploration & infill drilling, upgrade of resource o Environmental impact assessment o Feasibility Study & Applications o Mine construction and ramp-up o Initial production with Open Pit CAPEX USD Exploration 4,000,000 USD Environment / Feasibility 1,000,000 USD Open Pit* 3,500,000 USD Mill 7,000,000 USD Facilities 1,500,000 USD Sub-total (Initial Production) 17,000,000 USD Underground Mine 12,500,000 USD Total (Pit & Underground Mine) 29,500,000 USD *estimate includes leasing of mining equipment Timeline Exploration Environment Feasibility & Application Construction Initial Production Total 4 years 7

11 Dump, Tailings and Processing Sites Potential tailing site directly north of the Sadisdorf deposit Site visit of the old dump and processing area with Prof. Schilka 10

12 Ore Characteristics and Metallurgy Massive greisen body Cassiterite, wolframite and sulfides Cassiterite grain size ranges from 30 to 120μm Comprehensive historic metallurgical test work in 1942 Historic (1942) Concentrates of approx. 24 to 50% Sn Cassiterite Future metallurgical test work to test modern methods o Gravitational separation (Tables, Spirals, Falcon etc) o Flotation o Sulphide circuit o WO 3 separation Test work to be conducted in experienced Australian Lab Probably most economic to produce a high grade concentrate (ca. 50% Sn) and a low grade concentrate (ca. 10% Sn) Quartz veinlet containing coarse-grained cassiterite Cassiterite & Wolframite High potential for increased overall processing efficiency Quartz-topaz greisen with wolframite mineralization 11

13 Geology A combined vein- and greisen-type ore deposit with major tin and minor copper, tungsten and molybdenum mineralization Tin occurs as cassiterite Resource is located in the upper 200m below surface Extensively explored by drill holes Further exploration potential especially at depth High positive Sn anomalies in the greater surrounding area Tungsten as possible by-product Cross-section of the Sadisdorf deposit (modified after Peterson & Tischendorf, 1976) 12

14 Mining and Exploration Site of tin and copper mining since the 1600s Main mining and exploration period in the 20 th century 1954 flooding of the deposit up to the 0 m level Latest historic exploration from 1984 to sealing of the deposit Work by TIN started March 2013 o Research of all available historic data and reports o Validation of existing historic data for JORC including re-assaying of historic sample material o Creation of a first block model in October 2013 o Mapping and surface sampling by TIN result in the extension of the resource to surface 13 Available historical Information - Sadisdorf deposit Historic Material Analysed Meters Surface drilling 14,000 m Underground drillings 1,250 m Trenches 1,350 m Underground drives 6,000 m Total 22,600 m

15 Sadisdorf JORC Resource Estimation CSA International commissioned for JORC resource estimation JORC finalized in September 2014 JORC resource* Tonnage Grade Contained Tin Inferred 3.4 Mt 0.44 % Sn 15,000 t *at 0.25% Sn cut-off Block model of Sadisdorf at 0.2 % Sn cut-off (Aug 2014) 14

16 Summary Sadisdorf: potential for fast track, mid-size mine with 15,000 tonnes of tin Existing mine: good preconditions to resume mining process Open Pit possible & near-surface ore body Modest capital requirements for resource definition, project development and mine construction Sadisdorf deposit can be advanced to feasibility quickly, cost approx. 5 Mio USD Possible start of initial production to generate cash flow and tin-concentrate in 2018 Good investment opportunity for value creation and off-take rights Thank you for your interest! 15
