Lustros Ltd
Lustros Ltd. is a US publicly traded company currently trading under the symbol PWSV. Through its subsidiary Bluestone SA (80% ownership) that controls Sulfatos Chile SA, Lustros Ltd. specializes in the production of high-quality commercial grade copper sulfate via traditional mining methods. Through its subsidiary Mineraltus SA (80% ownership), Lustros Ltd. specializes in the production of copper from the treatment of tailing (waste product of mining process).
Copper Sulfate
Higher grade copper reserves are decreasing worldwide. This reality prompted Bluestone SA to develop a value-added product directly derived from copper, which is copper sulfate. One kilogram of copper yields approximately four kilograms of Copper Sulfate.
Mineral rock is processed in our Copper Sulfate processing plant in Puerto Escuro, Chile. The mineral is extracted from our own Anika copper mine or bought from local artisanal miners. Mineraltus Ltd. (Treatment of Copper Tailings):
Tailings are waste materials generated by traditional mining. There are over 800 closed mines in Chile, 50% of which are abandoned. Using our state-of-the-art patented technology, we can extract copper from these tailings with significant margins.

Bluestone SA Numbers
This business model assumes one new plant every six months, with ten active plants by FY2017. Our prototype plants are engineered to process 84,000 tons of mineral rock per year. Each plan yields 4,032 tons of Copper Sulfate with a market value of approximately $12.1MM. These numbers include mining cost. Acquiring mineral rock from artisanal miners should improve the economics significantly.
Bluestone SA Forecast
This plan assumes that every new front requires a full new plant at $6MM each. We expect to leverage plants more efficiently.
Bluestone SA P&L
Lustros Ltd
This model assumes the implementation of a new tailings front every three months. For modeling purposes we have assumed a new plant for every project, however, it is safe to assume that we will be able to leverage some of the plants for several projects
Assumes covering 100% of closure costs. Plan is to charge the mine owner or the Chilean government for these costs.
