Notes to the Editor

Tri-Star’s principal activities are in an antimony and gold production facility (the “SPMP Project” or the “Project”). The SPMP Project is based in Sohar, Sultanate of Oman, and is being developed by Strategic & Precious Metals Processing LLC (“SPMP”), an Omani company in which Tri-Star has a 40% equity interest.

Tri-Star also has an antimony exploration license in Canada which is held for its potential contribution of feedstock to the SPMP Project.
