PROXY STATEMENT

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of China Precision Steel, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“we” or the “Company”) is furnishing this Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy to you to solicit your proxy for the 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Meeting”). The Meeting will be held on Monday, June 30, 2011, at 10:00 a.m., local time, at the Meeting Room, 18th Floor, Teda Building, 87 Wing Lok Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

What is this proxy statement?

You have received this proxy statement and our annual report because our Board of Directors is soliciting your proxy to vote your shares at the annual meeting. This proxy statement includes information that we are required to provide to you under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and that is designed to assist you in voting your shares.

What is the purpose of the annual meeting?

At the annual meeting, our stockholders will act upon the matters described in this proxy statement. These actions include the election of directors; ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm (which we sometimes refer to as the “independent auditors”); an advisory (that is, nonbinding) vote on executive compensation; and an advisory vote on the frequency of holding an advisory vote on executive compensation. An additional purpose of the annual meeting is to transact any other business that may properly come before the annual meeting and any and all adjournments or postponements of the annual meeting.

Who can attend the annual meeting?

All stockholders of record at the close of business on June 2, 2011, the record date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the annual meeting.

What proposals will be voted on at the annual meeting?

Stockholders will vote on four proposals at the annual meeting:

the election of directors;

the ratification of Moore Stephens as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011;

an advisory vote on executive compensation; and

- 1-

an advisory vote on the frequency of holding an advisory vote on executive compensation.

What are the Board’s recommendations?

Our Board recommends that you vote:

FOR election of the nominated directors;

FOR ratification of Moore Stephens as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011;

FOR approval of the compensation of our named executive officers.

The Board has not made a recommendation on the frequency of holding an advisory vote on executive compensation. Stockholders may vote for having an advisory vote every year, every two years, or every three years, or they may abstain from voting on this proposal.

Will there be any other business on the agenda?

The Board knows of no other matters that are likely to be brought before the annual meeting. If any other matters properly come before the annual meeting, however, the persons named in the enclosed proxy, or their duly appointed substitute acting at the annual meeting, will be authorized to vote or otherwise act on those matters in accordance with their judgment.

Who is entitled to vote?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on June 2, 2011, which we refer to as the Record Date, are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the annual meeting. As of the record date, there were 46,562,955 shares of our common stock outstanding. Holders of common stock as of the record date are entitled to one vote for each share held for each of the proposals. No other class of voting securities is outstanding on the date of mailing of this proxy statement.

What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

Stockholder of Record. If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Securities Transfer Corporation, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the “stockholder of record.” This proxy and our Annual Report have been sent directly to you by us.

Beneficial Owner. If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in street name. This proxy and the Annual Report have been forwarded to you by your broker, bank or nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or nominee how to vote your shares by using the voting instructions included in with your proxy materials.

How do I vote my shares?

Whether you hold shares directly as a registered stockholder of record or beneficially in street name, you may vote without attending the meeting. You may vote by granting a proxy or, for shares held beneficially in street name, by submitting voting instructions to your stockbroker, trustee or nominee. In most cases, you will be able to do this by using the Internet or telephone or by mail, if you received a printed set of the proxy materials:

By Internet – If you have Internet access, you may submit your proxy via the Internet by following the instructions provided in the Notice, or if you received a printed version of the proxy materials by mail, by following the instructions provided with your proxy materials and on your proxy card or voting instruction card.

- 2-

By Telephone or Mail – If you received printed proxy materials, you may submit your proxy by telephone by following the instructions provided on your proxy card or voting instruction card. If you received a Notice, you may submit your proxy by telephone after accessing the proxy materials via the Internet. You may also submit your proxy by mail by signing your proxy card if your shares are registered or, for shares held beneficially in street name, by following the voting instructions included by your stockbroker, trustee or nominee, and mailing it in the envelope provided. If you provide specific voting instructions, your shares will be voted as you have instructed. Voting by telephone is not available to persons outside of the United States.

If you vote by proxy, the individuals named on the proxy card (your “proxies”) will vote your shares in the manner you indicate. You may specify how your shares should be voted for each of the proposals. If you grant a proxy without indicating your instructions, your shares will be voted as follows:

FOR the election of the five nominees for director;

FOR the ratification of Moore Stephens as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011;

FOR the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers.

Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote. The record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the annual meeting is June 2, 2011. As of that date, there were 46,562,955 shares of our common stock outstanding.

What constitutes a quorum?

A quorum is the presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares of the common stock entitled to vote. Under Delaware law, an abstaining vote and a broker “non-vote” are counted as present and are, therefore, included for purposes of determining whether a quorum of shares is present at the annual meeting.

What is a broker “non-vote” and what is its effect on voting?

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and do not provide the organization that holds your shares with specific voting instructions, under the rules of various national and regional securities exchanges, the organization that holds your shares may generally vote on routine matters but cannot vote on non-routine matters. If the organization that holds your shares does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your shares on a non-routine matter, the organization that holds your shares does not have the authority to vote on the matter with respect to those shares. This is generally referred to as a “broker non-vote.”

Proposal 2 (ratification of auditors) involves a matter that we believe will be considered routine. All other proposals involve matters that we believe will be considered non-routine. We encourage you to provide voting instructions to the organization that holds your shares by carefully following the instructions provided on your proxy card.

What is required to approve each item?

For Proposal No. 1 (election of directors), each director must be elected by a plurality of votes cast with respect to such director (i.e., the number of shares voted “for” a director nominee must exceed the number of votes “withheld” from that nominee). Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted for purposes of the election of directors.

For Proposal No. 2 (ratification of independent auditors) and Proposal No. 3 (advisory vote on executive compensation), the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stockholders’ shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote, is required.

For Proposal No. 4 (advisory vote on the frequency of holding an advisory vote on executive compensation), the alternative — that is, every one, two or three years — receiving the greatest number of votes will be the frequency that stockholders approve.

- 3-

For any other matters on which stockholders are entitled to vote, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stockholders’ shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote, is required.

For the purpose of determining whether the stockholders have approved matters other than the election of directors and the frequency of holding an advisory vote on executive compensation, abstentions are treated as shares present or represented and voting, so abstaining has the same effect as a negative vote. If stockholders hold their shares through a broker, bank or other nominee and do not instruct them how to vote, the broker may have authority to vote the shares for routine matters.

Stockholders may not cumulate votes in the election of directors, which means that each stockholder may vote no more than the number of shares he or she owns for a single director candidate.

Our bylaws require that, in uncontested elections, each director be elected by the majority of votes cast with respect to such director. This means that the number of shares voted “for” a director nominee must exceed the number of votes “withheld” from that nominee in order for that nominee to be elected. Only votes “for” or “withheld” are counted as votes cast with respect to a director. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect.

How will shares of common stock represented by properly executed proxies be voted?

All shares of common stock represented by proper proxies will, unless such proxies have previously been revoked, be voted in accordance with the instructions indicated in such proxies. If you do not provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with the Board’s recommendations as set forth herein. In addition, if any other matters properly come before the annual meeting, the persons named in the enclosed proxy, or their duly appointed substitute acting at the annual meeting, will be authorized to vote or otherwise act on those matters in accordance with their judgment.

Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?

Any stockholder executing a proxy has the power to revoke such proxy at any time prior to its exercise. You may revoke your proxy prior to exercise by calling the toll-free telephone number identified in the Notice, or by accessing the Internet website specified in the Notice, or in writing by execution of a subsequently dated proxy, or by a written notice of revocation, sent to the attention of the Secretary at the address of our principal office set forth in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders accompanying this Proxy Statement, or by attending and voting in person at the Meeting. Unless revoked, the shares represented by timely received proxies will be voted in accordance with the directions given therein. Your most current proxy card or telephone or Internet proxy is the one that is counted.

If the Meeting is postponed or adjourned for any reason, at any subsequent reconvening of the Meeting, all proxies will be voted in the same manner as the proxies would have been voted at the previously convened Meeting (except for any proxies that have at that time effectively been revoked or withdrawn), even if the proxies had been effectively voted on the same or any other matter at a previous Meeting.

How are proxies solicited?

In addition to the mail solicitation of proxies, our officers, directors, employees and agents may solicit proxies by written communication, telephone or personal call. These persons will receive no special compensation for any solicitation activities. We will reimburse banks, brokers and other persons holding common stock for their expenses in forwarding proxy solicitation materials to beneficial owners of our common stock.

Who paid for this proxy solicitation?

The cost of preparing, printing, assembling and mailing this proxy statement and other material furnished to stockholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies is borne by us.

- 4-

What is “householding?”

The SEC has adopted rules that allow a company to deliver a single proxy statement or annual report to an address shared by two or more of its stockholders. This method of delivery, known as "householding," permits us to realize significant cost savings, reduces the amount of duplicate information stockholders receive, and reduces the environmental impact of printing and mailing documents to you. Under this process, certain stockholders of record who do not participate in electronic delivery of proxy materials will receive only one copy of our proxy materials and any additional proxy materials that are delivered until such time as one or more of these stockholders notifies us that they want to receive separate copies. Any stockholders who wish to opt out of, or wish to begin, householding may contact our Corporate Secretary through one of the following methods:

by sending a written request by mail to:

China Precision Steel, Inc.

18th Floor, Teda Building

87 Wing Lok Street, Sheung Wan

Hong Kong

Attention: Corporate Secretary

by calling our Corporate Secretary, at +852-2543-2290.

How do I learn the results of the voting at the annual meeting?

The preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. The final results will be published in our current report on Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission within four business days after the date of the Annual Meeting, provided that the final results are available at such time. In the event the final results are not available within such time period, the preliminary voting results will be published in our current report on Form 8-K to be filed within such time period, and the final results will be published in an amended current report on Form 8-K/A to be filed within four business days after the final results are available. Any stockholder may also obtain the results from the Corporate Secretary, China Precision Steel, Inc., 18th Floor, Teda Building, 87 Wing Lok Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong.

Can I receive future stockholder communications electronically through the Internet?

Yes. You may elect to receive future notices of meetings, proxy materials and annual reports electronically through the Internet. To consent to electronic delivery, vote your shares using the Internet. At the end of the Internet voting procedure, the on-screen Internet voting instructions will tell you how to request future stockholder communications be sent to you electronically.

Once you consent to electronic delivery, you must vote your shares using the Internet and your consent will remain in effect until withdrawn. You may withdraw this consent at any time during the voting process and resume receiving stockholder communications in print form.

Whom may I contact for further assistance?

If you have any questions about giving your proxy or require any assistance, please contact our Corporate Secretary:

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Our current corporate governance practices and policies are designed to promote stockholder value and we are committed to the highest standards of corporate ethics and diligent compliance with financial accounting and reporting rules. Our Board provides independent leadership in the exercise of its responsibilities. Our management oversees a system of internal controls and compliance with corporate policies and applicable laws and regulations, and our employees operate in a climate of responsibility, candor and integrity.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

We and our Board are committed to high standards of corporate governance as an important component in building and maintaining stockholder value. To this end, we regularly review our corporate governance policies and practices to ensure that they are consistent with the high standards of other companies. We also closely monitor guidance issued or proposed by the SEC and the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as the emerging best practices of other companies. The current corporate governance guidelines are available on the Company’s website at http://www.chinaprecisionsteelinc.com. Printed copies of our corporate governance guidelines may be obtained, without charge, by contacting the Corporate Secretary, China Precision Steel, Inc., 18th Floor, Teda Building, 87 Wing Lok Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong.

The Board and Committees of the Board

Our board of directors currently consists of six members: Wo Hing Li, Hai Sheng Chen, Tung Kuen Tsui, Che Kin Lui, David Peter Wong and Daniel Carlson; Mr. Carlson serves as a non-executive, non-voting member of the board of directors.

- 8-

Our board of directors has established three committees: an audit committee, a compensation committee, and a nominating and governance committee. Each committee is comprised entirely of independent directors. From time to time, our board of directors may establish other committees. Our board of directors has adopted a written charter for each of the committees, each of which is available on our website http://www.chinaprecisionsteelinc.com. Printed copies of these charters may be obtained, without charge, by contacting the Corporate Secretary, China Precision Steel, Inc., 18th Floor, Teda Building, 87 Wing Lok Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong.

Governance Structure

The Board believes the interests of all stockholders are best served at the present time through a leadership model that separates the roles of the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer. On May 1, 2010, the Board appointed Hai Sheng Chen, to serve as Chief Executive Officer, in lieu of Wo Hing Li, who resigned from this position on the same day, but continues in his role as Chairman of the Board. We have chosen to implement such a governance structure to allow our Chief Executive Officer the ability to focus the majority of his time and efforts on the day to day operations of the Company. Each of our Chief Executive Officer and Board Chairman possesses an in-depth knowledge of the Company, its integrated operations, the domestic and international industry, and the array of challenges to be faced, gained through over 25 years of combined experience. The Board believes that these experiences and other insights put each of them in the best position to provide broad leadership for the Board as it considers strategy and as it exercises its fiduciary responsibilities to its stockholders. We believe that this governance structure will serve the Company’s shareholders well in the coming years.

Further, the Board has demonstrated its commitment and ability to provide independent oversight of management. A majority of the Board is comprised of independent directors, and 100 percent of the Audit, Compensation, and Corporate Governance committees are independent. Each independent director has access to the Chief Executive Officer and other Company executives on request, may call meetings of the independent directors, and may request agenda topics to be added or dealt with in more detail at meetings of the full Board or an appropriate Board committee.

We encourage our stockholders to learn more about our Company’s governance practices at our website, http://www.chinaprecisionsteelinc.com.

The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

The Board oversees that the assets of the Company are properly safeguarded, that the appropriate financial and other controls are maintained, and that the Company’s business is conducted wisely and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and proper governance. Included in these responsibilities is the Board of Directors’ oversight of the various risks facing the Company. In this regard, the Board seeks to understand and oversee critical business risks. The Board does not view risk in isolation. Risks are considered in virtually every business decision and as part of the Company’s business strategy. The Board recognizes that it is neither possible nor prudent to eliminate all risk. Indeed, purposeful and appropriate risk-taking is essential for the Company to be competitive on a global basis and to achieve its objectives.

While the Board oversees risk management, Company management is charged with managing risk. The Company has robust internal processes and a strong internal control environment to identify and manage risks and to communicate with the Board. The Board and the Audit Committee monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the internal controls and the risk management program at least annually. Management communicates routinely with the Board, Board Committees and individual Directors on the significant risks identified and how they are being managed. Directors are free to, and indeed often do, communicate directly with senior management.

The Board implements its risk oversight function both as a whole and through Committees. Much of the work is delegated to various Committees, which meet regularly and report back to the full Board. All Committees play significant roles in carrying out the risk oversight function. In particular:

The Audit Committee oversees risks related to the Company’s financial statements, the financial reporting process, accounting and legal matters. The Audit Committee oversees the internal audit function and the Company’s ethics programs, including the Code of Business Conduct. The Audit Committee members meet separately with representatives of the independent auditing firm.

The Compensation Committee evaluates the risks and rewards associated with the Company’s compensation philosophy and programs. The Compensation Committee reviews and approves compensation programs with features that mitigate risk without diminishing the incentive nature of the compensation. Management discusses with the Compensation Committee the procedures that have been put in place to identify and mitigate potential risks in compensation.

Board, Committee and Annual Meeting Attendance

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, the Board held 1 meeting and acted by written consent 3 times. Our Audit Committee and the Governance and Nominating committee met or acted by written consent 1 and 1 times, respectively. In addition, our non-management directors, all of which are independent directors, meet in executive session following Board meetings. Each director attended at least 75% of all Board and applicable committee meetings. Copies of the charters for each of our standing committees may be obtained from our website at http://www.chinaprecisionsteelinc.com.

Our directors are expected to attend board meetings as frequently as necessary to properly discharge their responsibilities and to spend the time needed to prepare for each such meeting. We encourage our directors to attend annual shareholder meetings, but we do not have a formal policy requiring them to do so.

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

Tung Kuen Tsui, Che Kin Lui and David Peter Wong serve as members of the Company’s Audit Committee, each of whom our Board determined to be “independent” as that term is defined by Rule 4200(a)(15) of the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. Mr. Wong serves as chair of the Audit Committee.

The purpose of the audit committee is to oversee our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of our financial statements. The primary function of the audit committee is to oversee the Board by reviewing the financial information that will be provided to the stockholders and others, the preparation of our internal financial statements, and our audit and financial reporting process, including internal control over financial reporting. In addition, our audit committee is responsible for maintaining free and open lines of communication among the committee, the independent auditors and management. Our audit committee consults with our management and independent auditors before the presentation of financial statements to stockholders and, as appropriate, initiates inquiries into various aspects of our financial affairs. The committee is also responsible for considering, appointing, and establishing fee arrangements with our independent auditors and, if necessary, dismissing them. It is not responsible for preparing our financial statements or for planning or conducting the audits.

Our Board of Directors has determined that David Peter Wong possesses the accounting or related financial management experience that qualifies him as financially sophisticated within the meaning of Rule 4350(d)(2)(A) of the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules and that he is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the rules and regulations of the SEC.

The Report of the Audit Committee regarding the audited financials statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 is located on Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement.

Compensation Committee

Our compensation committee consists of Tung Kuen Tsui, Che Kin Lui and David Peter Wong, each of whom are “independent” as that term is defined by Rule 4200(a)(15) of the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. Our compensation committee assists the Board in reviewing and approving the compensation structure of our directors and executive officers, including all forms of compensation to be provided to our directors and executive officers. Our chief executive officer may not be present at any committee meeting during which his compensation is deliberated. Mr. Che Kin Lui serves as Chair of the compensation committee.

The compensation committee is responsible for, among other things:

approving and overseeing the compensation package for our executive officers;

reviewing and making recommendations to the Board with respect to the compensation of our directors;

- 10-

reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of our chief executive officer, evaluating the performance of our chief executive officer in light of those goals and objectives, and setting the compensation level of our chief executive officer based on this evaluation; and

reviewing periodically and making recommendations to the Board regarding any long-term incentive compensation or equity plans, programs or similar arrangements, annual bonuses, employee pension and welfare benefit plans.

The Compensation Committee has sole authority to retain and terminate outside counsel, compensation consultants retained to assist the Compensation Committee in determining the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer or senior executive officers, or other experts or consultants, as it deems appropriate, including sole authority to approve the firms' fees and other retention terms. The Compensation Committee may also form and delegate authority to subcommittees and may delegate authority to one or more designated members of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee may from time to time seek recommendations from the executive officers of the Company regarding matters under the purview of the Compensation Committee, though the authority to act on such recommendations rests solely with the Compensation Committee.

Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee

Our corporate governance and nominating committee consists of Tung Kuen Tsui, Che Kin Lui and David Peter Wong, each of whom is “independent” as that term is defined by Rule 4200(a)(15) of the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. The corporate governance and nominating committee assists the Board of Directors in identifying individuals qualified to become our directors and in determining the composition of the Board and its committees. Mr. Tung Kuen Tsui serves as Chair of the corporate governance and nominating committee.

The corporate governance and nominating committee is responsible for, among other things:

identifying and recommending to the Board nominees for election or re-election to the board, or for appointment to fill any vacancy;

reviewing annually with the Board the current composition of the Board in light of the characteristics of independence, age, skills, experience and availability of service to us;

identifying and recommending to the Board the directors to serve as members of the Board’s committees; and

monitoring compliance with our code of business conduct and ethics.

In identifying and recommending nominees for election or re-election to the board, or for appointment to fill any vacancy, the corporate governance and nominating committee is also committed to engendering Board strength and effectiveness by seeking candidates with a diverse set of business, academic and life experiences and backgrounds who also possess knowledge and skills in areas of importance to the Company. The Committee does not use quotas but considers diversity when evaluating potential new directors.

The Committee identifies director candidates primarily through recommendations made by the non-employee directors. These recommendations are developed based on the directors’ own knowledge and experience in a variety of fields. Additionally the Committee considers recommendations made by the employee directors, stockholders, and others. All recommendations, regardless of the source, are evaluated on the same basis.

Stockholders may send recommendations for director candidates to the Corporate Secretary, China Precision Steel, Inc., 18th Floor, Teda Building, 87 Wing Lok Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong. A submission recommending a candidate should include:

Sufficient biographical information to allow the Committee to evaluate the candidate;

- 11-

Information concerning any relationship between the candidate and the stockholder recommending the candidate; and

Material indicating the willingness of the candidate to serve if nominated and elected.

The procedures by which stockholders may recommend nominees have not changed materially since last year’s proxy statement.

Code of Ethics

Our amended and restated Code of Ethics conforms to the rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc., or Nasdaq. The Code of Ethics applies to all of our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, and addresses, among other things, honesty and ethical conduct, conflicts of interest, compliance with laws, regulations and policies, including disclosure requirements under the federal securities laws, confidentiality, trading on inside information, and reporting of violations of the code. A copy of the Code of Ethics has been filed as Exhibit 14 to our annual report on Form 10-K, filed on March 31, 2008. Our Code of Ethics is also posted on the corporate governance page of our website at http://www.chinaprecisionsteelinc.com. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, there were no waivers of our Code of Ethics.

Stockholder Communication with the Board of Directors.

Stockholders may communicate with the Board, including non-management directors, by sending a letter to our board of directors, c/o Corporate Secretary, China Precision Steel, Inc., 18th Floor, Teda Building, 87 Wing Lok Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong, for submission to the board or committee or to any specific director to whom the correspondence is directed. Stockholders communicating through this means should include with the correspondence evidence, such as documentation from a brokerage firm, that the sender is a current record or beneficial stockholder of the Company. All communications received as set forth above will be opened by the Corporate Secretary or her designee for the sole purpose of determining whether the contents contain a message to one or more of our directors. Any contents that are not advertising materials, promotions of a product or service, patently offensive materials or matters deemed, using reasonable judgment, inappropriate for the Board will be forwarded promptly to the chairman of the Board, the appropriate committee or the specific director, as applicable

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which stockholders may recommend nominees to our Board of Directors since such procedures were last disclosed.

Employment Agreements

We have entered into executive employment agreements with each of Hai Sheng Chen, our Chief Executive Officer, Leada Tak Tai Li, our Chief Financial Officer, Zu De Jiang, our Chief Operating Officer, and Wo Hing Li, our Board Chairman and former Chief Executive Officer. All executive employment agreements were entered into as of January 1, 2007, except Mr. Jiang’s employment agreement which was entered into on May 1, 2010, and will continue indefinitely until terminated in accordance with the terms of agreement. The base salary shown in the Summary Compensation Table above is described in each of the executive officer’s respective employment agreement, and each of them has the right to participate in our employee benefit plans. The executives are also entitled to reimbursement, to the fullest extent authorized by Delaware law, of all expenses incurred or suffered by them in connection with any claim brought against them because of or in connection with their positions with us or any of our affiliates, except to the extent that, such expenses arise as a result of the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of the executive, or as a result of his or her conviction for a felony.

Each of the executive employment agreements permits us to terminate the executive’s employment at any time by giving a written notice to the executive officer, provided that, if we terminate the executive’s employment without cause, the executive will be entitled to a termination payment equal to six months of his or her then current base salary, payable in six equal installments over the six-month period immediate following the date of termination. We may also terminate for cause, at any time, without notice or remuneration, for certain acts of the executive, including but not limited to a conviction or plea of guilty to a felony, negligence or dishonesty to our detriment and failure to perform agreed duties after a reasonable opportunity to cure the failure. An executive may terminate his or her employment upon thirty days’ written notice if there is a material reduction in his authority, duties and responsibilities or if there is a material breach by us of the terms or conditions of the agreement after a reasonable opportunity to cure the breach. The agreements also provide that, if within 12 months following a change of control, any of the executives are terminated without cause or any of them terminate for good reason, then the vesting and exercisability of 50% of his or her stock options that are unvested at the time of the termination (if any) will accelerate and immediately become vested and exercisable as of the termination date, and will remain exercisable for 12 months following the termination date.

Each of the executive employment agreements contains customary non-competition, confidentiality, and non-disclosure covenants. Specifically, each executive officer has agreed, both during and after he or she is no longer employed by us, to hold in strict confidence and not to use, except as required in the performance of his duties in connection with the employment, any confidential information, technical data, trade secrets and know-how of our company or the confidential information of any third party, including our affiliated entities and our subsidiaries, received by us. The executive officers have also agreed to disclose in confidence to us all inventions, designs and trade secrets which they conceive, develop or reduce to practice and to assign all right, title and interest in them to us. In addition, each of the executive officers has agreed not to, while employed by us and for a period of 3 years following the termination or expiration of the agreement: approach our clients, customers or contacts or other persons or entities, and not to interfere with the business relationship between us and such persons and/or entities; assume employment with or provide services as a director for any of our competitors, or engage in any business which is in direct or indirect competition with our business; or solicit the services of any of our employees.

Policies and Procedures Relating to Transactions with Related Persons

Our current written policies and procedures for review, approval or ratification of relationships or transactions with related persons are set forth in our Code of Business Ethics and Conduct, our Audit Committee Charter, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter, and our Board of Directors Charter.

Our Board of Directors is generally required to monitor and manage potential conflicts of interest of management and the Board and as permitted under the Company’s Bylaws, the Board has delegated some of these responsibilities to the Board’s Audit Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Our Audit Committee Charter provides that the Audit Committee is responsible for establishing procedures for the approval of and approve the entry of the Company into any and all related party transactions between the Company and any executive officer or director that would potentially require disclosure pursuant to Item 404 of SEC Regulation S-K. The Audit Committee Charter also mandates that the Audit Committee must approve the entry of the Company into any such related party transaction. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter provides that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing and assessing the adequacy of the Company’s Code of Business Ethics and Conduct and other internal policies and guidelines and monitor whether the principles described therein are being incorporated into the Company’s culture and business practices.

Our Code of Business Ethics and Conduct provides a number of specific procedures, requirements, and prohibitions relating to related party transactions. It prohibits directors, officers and employees from accepting simultaneous employment with a Company supplier, customer, developer, or competitor, or from taking part in any activity that enhances or supports a competitor’s position. All directors, officers and employees must disclose to the Company any interest that may conflict with the Company. A director, officer and employee may accept a position as a director of another company only if he or she obtains approval from the Board of Directors; the other company does not compete with the Company; and any compensation received in this capacity is commensurate with its responsibilities.

Our Code of Business Ethics and Conduct generally requires directors, officers, and employees of the Company to avoid conducting Company business with a relative or significant other, or with a business in which a relative or significant other is associated in any significant manner. Where a Company director, officer or employee believes that such a transaction is unavoidable, he or she must fully disclose it to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. If the Chief Executive Officer deems it material to the Company, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee must review and provide advance written approval for such transactions. The Board subsequently reassigned part of this responsibility to the Audit Committee pursuant to the Audit Committee Charter. The most significant related party transactions, especially those involving the Company’s directors or executive officers, must be reviewed and approved in writing in advance by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Board also delegated part of this function to the Audit Committee under the Audit Committee Charter, as explained above. The Company must report all such material related party transactions under applicable accounting rules, federal securities laws, SEC rules and regulations, and securities market rules. Any dealings with a related party must be conducted in such a way that no preferential treatment is given.

Our Code of Business Ethics and Conduct permits waivers of the above policies and procedures as to directors or executive officers only if they are approved in writing by the Board of Directors and promptly disclosed. Any waiver with respect to any employee, agent or contractor must be approved in writing by the Company. Under its Charter, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is also responsible for reviewing requests for any waivers and recommending to the Board whether a particular request should be granted.

Any type of related party transaction not expressly covered by the above policies and procedures is subject to the review and approval of our Board of Directors.

There were no related party transactions since the beginning of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 for which our policies and procedures did not require review, approval or ratification, or where our policies and procedures were not followed.

PROPOSAL 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors is responsible for establishing broad corporate policies and monitoring the overall performance of the Company. It selects the Company’s executive officers, delegates authority for the conduct of the Company’s day-to-day operations to those officers, and monitors their performance. Members of the Board keep themselves informed of the Company’s business by participating in Board and Committee meetings, by reviewing analyses and reports, and through discussions with the Chairman and other officers.

See “Governance and Nominating Committee” above for a discussion of the process for selecting directors.

There are currently six directors serving on the Board. At the Meeting, five directors will be elected. The individuals who have been nominated for election to the Board at the Meeting are listed in the table below. Each of the nominees is a current director of the Company.

If, as a result of circumstances not now known or foreseen, any of the nominees is unavailable to serve as a nominee for director at the time of the Meeting, the holders of the proxies solicited by this Proxy Statement may vote those proxies either (i) for the election of a substitute nominee who will be designated by the proxy holders or by the present Board or (ii) for the balance of the nominees, leaving a vacancy. Alternatively, the size of the Board may be reduced accordingly. The Board has no reason to believe that any of the nominees will be unwilling or unable to serve, if elected as a Director. The five nominees for election as directors are uncontested. In uncontested elections, directors are elected by plurality of the votes cast at the meeting. Proxies submitted on the accompanying proxy card will be voted for the election of the nominees listed below, unless the proxy card is marked otherwise.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the election of the nominees listed below.

All directors will hold office for the terms indicated, or until their earlier death, resignation, removal or disqualification, and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified. There are no arrangements or understandings between any of the nominees, directors or executive officers and any other person pursuant to which any of our nominees, directors or executive officers have been selected for their respective positions. No nominee, member of the Board of Directors or executive officer is related to any other nominee, member of the Board of Directors or executive officer.

Director Qualifications

Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company’s business consistent with their fiduciary duty to shareowners. This significant responsibility requires highly-skilled individuals with various qualities, attributes and professional experience. The Board believes that there are general requirements for service on the Company’s Board of Directors that are applicable to all Directors and that there are other skills and experience that should be represented on the Board as a whole but not necessarily by each Director. The Board and the Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board consider the qualifications of Directors and Director candidates individually and in the broader context of the Board’s overall composition and the Company’s current and future needs.

- 17-

In its assessment of each potential candidate, including those recommended by shareowners, the Governance and Nominating Committee considers the nominee’s judgment, integrity, experience, independence, understanding of the Company’s business or other related industries and such other factors the Governance and Nominating Committee determines are pertinent in light of the current needs of the Board. The Governance and Nominating Committee also takes into account the ability of a Director to devote the time and effort necessary to fulfill his or her responsibilities to the Company.

The Board and the Governance and Nominating Committee require that each Director be a recognized person of high integrity with a proven record of success in his or her field. Each Director must demonstrate innovative thinking, familiarity with and respect for corporate governance requirements and practices, an appreciation of multiple cultures and a commitment to sustainability and to dealing responsibly with social issues. In addition to the qualifications required of all Directors, the Board assesses intangible qualities including the individual’s ability to ask difficult questions and, simultaneously, to work collegially.

The Board does not have a specific diversity policy, but considers diversity of race, ethnicity, gender, age, cultural background and professional experiences in evaluating candidates for Board membership. Diversity is important because a variety of points of view contribute to a more effective decision-making process.

Qualifications, Attributes, Skills and Experience Represented on the Board

The Board has identified particular qualifications, attributes, skills and experience that are important to be represented on the Board as a whole, in light of the Company’s current needs and business priorities. The Company is a NASDAQ listed company that offers products in the steel industry in China. Therefore, the Board believes that a diversity of professional experiences in the steel industry, specific knowledge of key geographic growth areas, and knowledge of U.S. capital markets and of U.S. accounting and financial reporting standards should be represented on the Board.

The Audit Committee has selected Moore Stephens to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011. Moore Stephens was the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2010 and 2009.

We are asking our shareholders to ratify the selection of Moore Stephens as our independent registered public accounting firm. Although ratification is not required by our bylaws or otherwise, the Board is submitting the selection of Moore Stephens to our shareholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. In the event our shareholders fail to ratify the appointment, the Audit Committee may reconsider this appointment.

The Company has been advised by Moore Stephens that neither the firm nor any of its associates had any relationship with the Company other than the usual relationship that exists between independent registered public accountant firms and their clients during the last fiscal year. Representatives of Moore Stephens will be available via teleconference during the Meeting, at which time they may make any statement they consider appropriate and will respond to appropriate questions raised at the Meeting.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm’s Fees

The following is a summary of the fees billed to the Company by Moore Stephens for professional services rendered for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009:

	June 30, 2010		June 30, 2009
Audit Fees	$	119,000	$	114,000
Audit Related Fees		55,000		55,000
Tax Fees		20,000		-
All Other Fees		-		3,000
TOTAL		194,000		172,000

- 19-

“Audit Related Fees” consisted of the fees billed for professional services rendered for assurance and related services that were reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and were not otherwise included in Audit Fees.

“Tax Fees” consisted of the fees billed for professional services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning. Included in such Tax Fees were fees for preparation of our tax returns and consultancy and advice on other tax planning matters.

“All Other Fees” consisted of the fees billed for products and services provided by Moore Stephens and not otherwise included in Audit Fees, Audit Related Fees or Tax Fees. Included in such Other Fees were fees for services rendered by Moore Stephens in connection with our S-3 registration statements and private and public offerings conducted during such years.

Our audit committee has considered whether the provision of the non-audit services described above is compatible with maintaining auditor independence and determined that such services are appropriate. Before auditors are engaged to provide us audit or non-audit services, such engagement is (without exception, required to be) approved by the audit committee of our Board of Directors.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, all audit and non-audit services performed by our auditors must be approved in advance by our Board of Directors to assure that such services do not impair the auditors’ independence from us. In accordance with its policies and procedures, our Board of Directors pre-approved the audit service performed by Moore Stephens for our financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2010.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR ratification of the selection of Moore Stephens as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011.

PROPOSAL 3

ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The recently enacted Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), enables our stockholders to vote to approve, on an advisory (nonbinding) basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with the SEC’s rules.

Our executive compensation programs are designed to attract, motivate, and retain our named executive officers, who are critical to our success. Under these programs, our named executive officers are rewarded for the achievement of specific annual, long-term and strategic goals, business unit goals, corporate goals, and the realization of increased stockholder value.

Our Compensation Committee continually reviews the compensation programs for our named executive officers to ensure they achieve the desired goals of aligning our executive compensation structure with our stockholders’ interests and current market practices. We are asking our stockholders to indicate their support for our named executive officer compensation as described in this proxy statement. This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our named executive officers’ compensation. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. Accordingly, we will ask our stockholders to vote for the approval of the compensation of the named executive officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The say-on-pay vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on the Company, the Compensation Committee or our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors and our Compensation Committee value the opinions of our stockholders and to the extent there is any significant vote against the named executive officer compensation as disclosed in this proxy statement, they will consider our stockholders’ concerns and the Compensation Committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

PROPOSAL 4

ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF AN ADVISORY VOTE

ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Dodd-Frank Act also enables our stockholders to indicate how frequently we should seek an advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules, such as Proposal No. 3 above. By voting on this Proposal No. 4, stockholders may indicate whether they would prefer an advisory vote on named executive officer compensation once every one, two, or three years.

The option of one year, two years or three years that receives the highest number of votes cast by stockholders will be the frequency for the advisory vote on executive compensation that has been selected by stockholders. However, because this vote is advisory and not binding on the Board of Directors or the Company in any way, the Board may decide that it is in the best interests of our stockholders and the Company to hold an advisory vote on executive compensation more or less frequently than the option approved by our stockholders.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR THE 2011 ANNUAL MEETING

If you wish to have a proposal included in our proxy statement for next year’s annual meeting in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, your proposal must be received by the Corporate Secretary of China Precision Steel, Inc. at 18th Floor, Teda Building, 87 Wing Lok Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong, no later than the close of business on December 31, 2011. A proposal which is received after that date or which otherwise fails to meet the requirements for stockholder proposals established by the SEC will not be included. The submission of a stockholder proposal does not guarantee that it will be included in the proxy statement.

ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K

We will provide without charge to each person solicited by this Proxy Statement, on the written request of such person, a copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the financial statements and financial statement schedules, as filed with the SEC for our most recent fiscal year. Such written requests should be directed to China Precision Steel, Inc., c/o Corporate Secretary, 18th Floor, Teda Building, 87 Wing Lok Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong. A copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K is also made available on our website after it is filed with the SEC.

OTHER MATTERS

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board of Directors has no knowledge of any business which will be presented for consideration at the Meeting other than the election of directors and the ratification of the appointment of the accountants of the Company. Should any other matters be properly presented, it is intended that the enclosed proxy card will be voted in accordance with the best judgment of the persons voting the proxies.

APPENDIX A

The board of directors has named Mr. David Peter Wong, who meets the NASDAQ’s professional experience requirements, as its audit committee financial expert as such term is defined in Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC. The audit committee acts pursuant to a written charter, which complies with the applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related rules of the SEC and NASDAQ, which is available via our website at http://www.chinaprecisionsteelinc.com.

The audit committee reviewed and discussed our audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 with management and with Moore Stephens, the independent registered public accounting firm retained by the Company to audit its financial statements. The audit committee received and reviewed management’s representation and the opinion of the independent registered public accounting firm that the Company’s audited financial statements were prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The audit committee also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm during the 2010 fiscal year the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communication with Audit Committees), as amended, and other standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, rules of the SEC and other applicable regulations.

The audit committee received from Moore Stephens the written disclosures and the letter required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees) and discussed with Moore Stephens the independence of their firm.

Based upon the review and discussions referenced above, the audit committee recommended to our board of directors, and the board of directors approved, that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, for filing with the SEC.
