A New Primary Tin Supply for Europe
Elementos is developing a Spanish mine-to-metal tin supply chain to benefit Europe and reduce it's 84% dependancy of imported tin metal. The combination of the Oropesa Tin Mine in Andlaucia (100% owned) and the downstream option over Iberian Smelting (50%) which operates the Robledollano tin smelter in Extremdura establishes a clear pathway to establishing Europe's only tin mine and one of the world's few vertically integrated mine-to-metal tin supplies and supply up to 10% of the EU's refened tin ingot demands.
