- First Tin Plc is a London-based mining and development company engaged in the exploration, development, and planned production of hard rock tin projects in stable, low political risk jurisdictions, primarily Germany and Australia. The company’s core assets include advanced tin projects such as the Tellerhäuser, Gottesberg, and Auersberg projects in Saxony, Germany, and the Taronga project in New South Wales, Australia. First Tin focuses on providing sustainable, ethical, and conflict-free tin to support the global transition to clean energy, electric vehicles, renewable energy, and semiconductor supply chains. Its product offering centers on tin concentrates derived from its advanced development-stage mining projects, targeting industrial consumers requiring fully traceable and verifiable tin.
Founded in 2012 and headquartered in London, United Kingdom, First Tin operates with a development and sustainability ethos aimed at minimizing environmental impact while addressing the supply risks from current tin sources concentrated in emerging and developing economies. The company has recently secured a conditional equity fundraising of £6.3 million to advance the development and feasibility studies of its Taronga project and progress permitting and exploration activities at its Tellerhäuser and other German projects. Additionally, it has expanded exploration licenses near the Taronga project in Australia to support a hub-and-spoke strategy for satellite deposits, reinforcing its potential for a central processing facility. These moves reflect a strategic push to advance its low-capex, high-quality tin projects in Tier 1 jurisdictions with an increasing focus on delivering tin supply critical to the global energy transition and technological advancements. First Tin also emphasizes transparency and stakeholder engagement through periodic investor presentations and operational updates.
