Tng Signs Binding Life-of-mine Offtake Agreement With Gunvor (Singapore) For Remaining Vanadium Production

Key Points

Life-of-mine Offtake and Marketing Agreement (“Agreement”) signed with major global commodity trader

Gunvor (Singapore) (“Gunvor”) for 40% of the proposed vanadium pentoxide production from TNG’s 100%-

owned Mount Peake Project (“Project”) in the Northern Territory.

The Agreement with Gunvor complements the existing offtake agreement in place with Korea’s WOOJIN for

60% of the proposed vanadium pentoxide production from Mount Peake.

Under the Agreement, Gunvor will purchase vanadium pentoxide FOB for marketing and distribution on a

global basis.

TNG now has completed binding life-of-mine offtake agreements for all three of its high-value, high-purity

products proposed to be produced at Mount Peake – vanadium pentoxide, titanium pigment and iron oxide.

Australian resource and mineral processing technology company TNG Limited (ASX: TNG) (“TNG” or the

“Company”) is pleased to announce that it has executed a binding life-of-mine Offtake and Marketing Agreement

with global commodity trader, Gunvor (Singapore), for 40% of the high-purity vanadium pentoxide that is intended

to be produced from the Company’s flagship 100%-owned Mount Peake Vanadium-Titanium-Iron Project in the

Northern Territory, Australia.

TNG intends to produce approximately 6,000 tonnes per annum of high-purity vanadium pentoxide from its TIVAN®

Processing Facility proposed to be located in Darwin (NT) – one of three high-value products to be produced from

the fully integrated Mount Peake Project for export to a global customer base.

Under the Agreement, Gunvor will purchase vanadium pentoxide FOB, for global marketing and distribution for a

fixed discount.

With the execution of this Agreement, TNG has now executed offtake agreements for all three proposed product

streams for the Mount Peake Project:

100% of vanadium pentoxide production between Gunvor (40%) and WOOJIN (60%; see ASX announcement

dated 7 September 2015);

75% and up to 100% of titanium pigment production (see ASX announcement dated 13 May 2019); and

100% of iron oxide production (see ASX announcement dated 27 July 2020).

The execution of this Agreement with Gunvor completes the Company’s offtake arrangements, and is a major

milestone underpinning the Company’s commercial strategy for Mount Peake.
