Macarthur Minerals buoyed by share spike for major shareholder Cadence Minerals on iron ore deal – Proactive Investors
Macarthur is also encouraged by a robust iron ore market enhanced by low shipping rates and low oil prices.
Macarthur Minerals Limited (ASX:MIO) (CVE:MMS) remains focused on bringing to production its Western Australia iron ore projects, with the price of the key commodity remaining robust and largely unaffected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
While encouraged by the robust iron ore market, Macarthur is also buoyed by the performance this week of one of its largest shareholders Cadence Minerals PLC (LON:KDNC).
Cadence, an investment group that has a keen interest in opportunities in the iron ore sector, has this week doubled to GB 6.55p after the Amapá Iron Ore Project in Brazil received court approval to start iron ore shipments.
Shared iron ore vision
Macarthur and Cadence share the same vision of producing a high-grade, low-impurity iron ore concentrate and for this reason, Cadence has been a long-term corporate partner and investor in Macarthur.
Both companies are developing profitable and significant iron ore assets globally with Macarthur focused on the Lake Giles Iron Project in Western Australia.
The common ground extends beyond this vision with Cadence chairman Andrew Suckling also a non-executive director of Macarthur and chairman of the company’s Audit Committee.
Feasibility study progress
At Lake Giles, Macarthur is making strong progress on a feasibility study, focusing on the higher-value magnetite resource.
The location of Lake Giles with existing and planned logistics.
XRF assays and David Tube Recovery (DTR) analysis from infill drilling completed at the end of 2019 have confirmed significant intersections of magnetite mineralisation.
These results are being incorporated into an updated mineral resource model being prepared by CSA Global.
Detailed ‘route to market’ studies, including port and rail designs, are underway and remain a key priority as they will form the background of rail access, haulage and port contracts.
Tenders have also been called for metallurgical testing, process and infrastructure design, and mining studies to support a detailed feasibility study.
Large magnetite resource
Lake Giles mineral resources include the Moonshine magnetite resource and the Ularring hematite resource, which is approved for development.
Moonshine has an inferred magnetite resource of 710 million tonnes while Ularring has indicated resources of 54.5 million tonnes at 47.2% iron and inferred resources of 26 million tonnes at 45.4% iron.
Core samples from Lake Giles.
Macarthur’s executive chairman Cameron McCall said the company’s business case remained strong.
“Investor confidence across the board has taken a hit lately but we’re confident that the company is close to receiving a major shot in the arm on the back of an updated resource estimate and how we will get this to market.”
“Resolute” market fundamentals
He said: “On a macro-level, there are supportive market fundamentals that remain resolute; global steel production continues to rise and so does the demand for higher-grade, lower-impurity iron ore feedstock such as magnetite.
“While the prices of most major commodities are wilting in the face of the coronavirus, iron ore has been resilient with the benchmark 62% iron product hovering around a relatively robust $US90 per tonne, that’s up from $US72 in November last year.
“Lower oil prices, lower shipping rates as well as a declining Australian to US dollar should see a rapid rebalancing as all these variables impact positively on corporate returns.”
Ruling a key Amapá milestone
The Amapá ruling from the Commercial Court of São Paulo marks a key milestone for re-starting the Brazilian project.
This project is owned by DEV Mineração SA (DEV) in which Cadence can earn a 20 per cent stake.
Independent surveys of the iron ore stockpiles indicate that 1.39 million tonnes of iron ore in three stockpiles are available for immediate export with an average grade of 62.12% iron.
First shipment could be as early as the end of this quarter, but this depends upon the receipt of permits and any COVID-19 restrictions that may apply.
Cadence CEO Kiran Morzaria said: “For Cadence, this a significant step forward for the redevelopment of the fully integrated Amapá Iron Ore Project.
“We are truly entering the operational phase of the asset, and despite the current turbulent and volatile market conditions, the iron ore prices remain robust.
“Our chairman (Andrew Suckling) has previously referred to Amapá as a ‘company changing’ project for Cadence, and it is now on its way to deliver this goal.”
Low shipping rates
Macarthur and Cadence are also encouraged by low shipping rates due to the decreased supply of iron ore to market and this is enhanced by very low oil prices.
This will also have an impact on existing suppliers as the ongoing need for iron ore pushes up demand, particularly post-COVID-19.
Suckling said: “The ruling from Brazil’s São Paulo court marks a significant milestone for the re-opening of the Amapá iron ore project and its long-term benefits for stakeholders and the region.
“This ruling brings the Amapá project back to life.
“Despite the severe disruption created by COVID-19, management has remained focused on delivering the Amapá project as planned, supported by a robust iron ore market that continues to justify the opportunity.”
“On cusp of transformational change”
The importance of this deal has been recognised by prominent UK-based wealth management and corporate broking company WH Ireland Group PLC (LON:WHI) that states “Cadence is on the cusp of a transformational change”.
In a new research note on Cadence, WH Ireland states: “An easy to ship stockpile of 1.4Mt of 62% iron ore would sell for a current SPOT price of $84/t. Taking in re-handling and port costs (WHIe) of $10/t and ocean freight estimate of $30/t leaves an operating margin of nearly $45/t of iron ore shipped.”
This is “a healthy margin which could be used to pay senior bank creditors (once agreement has been reached) and complete a feasibility study into the reopening of the Amapá mine and pay for some of the new infrastructure required”.

Cadence Minerals #KDNC – Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) Q4 Update & Early 2020 Update on W Australia Projects, “Iron Ore the Commodity for 2020”.
Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note today’s Q4 update from Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) (“Macarthur”) on it’s flagship Lake Giles Iron Project, along with very positive early exploration results across Macarthur’s iron ore, gold, nickel and cobalt projects in Western Australia.
Cadence Minerals Holding in Macarthur
Cadence holds approximately 7.4% of the issued equity interest in Macarthur, which is an Australian mining exploration company focused primarily on iron ore, nickel, lithium and gold in Western Australia. It also has a lithium project in Nevada, USA.
Highlights:
- The Lake Giles Iron Project, Feasibility Study (FS), is well underway with the infill drilling program completed in December. Results from the first batch of samples from Reverse Circulation (RC) and Diamond (DD) drilling were reported to the market on December 10, 2019. Several drill holes intersected a zone of high-grade magnetite mineralisation identified previously at the Moonshine North deposit.
- Macarthur was admitted to the Official List of Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) on December 4, 2019 and commenced quotation of its securities on ASX on December 6, 2019.
- The Company successfully closed the Offer under its Replacement Prospectus on 28 November 2019 with subscriptions accepted for 20,032,952 shares at a price of A$0.25 per share for a total consideration of A$5,008,238. Funds from the ASX IPO will be primarily used to advance the Company’s flagship Lake Giles Iron Project.
- Macarthur entered into a binding agreement with Arrow Minerals Limited (Arrow) to acquire the rights to a substantial package of land covering approximately 4950 ha adjacent to the Moonshine Magnetite deposit. The tenure will be used for constructing supporting infrastructure including the, processing plant, camp, airstrip, waste rocks dumps and a tailings storage facility. The deal with Arrow also paves the way forward to obtain access to tenure to construct a private haul road from the project through to the open access Perth to Kalgoorlie railway owned by Arc Infrastructure.
- A drilling program was completed at the Hillside project in the Pilbara region of Western Australia to test potential supergene and hypogene mineralisation above and below the water table along the majority of a 14-kilometre Gossan line where previous rock chip sampling identified anomalous copper. This program also tested outcropping quartz vein mineralisation identified through prospecting activities.
Along with key partners, Macarthur will continue to actively advance its iron ore assets in Western Australia. Infill drilling of the Moonshine Magnetite deposit has been completed with samples submitted to the laboratory. On receipt of assay results, Macarthur will update the geological model of the Moonshine Magnetite deposits in conjunction with completing a Feasibility Study of the Lake Giles Iron Project. Furthermore, Macarthur will work closely with Fe Limited to advance exploration of its high-quality lithium, gold and base metal tenements in the Pilbara region.

Macarthur Executive Chairman Cameron McCall commented: “The strong iron ore price continues to trade in a spot range (for the last quarter) of US$80-$93/tonne for 62% Fe ore and this is creating momentum in the global iron ore industry. Historically, iron ore prices tend to retract in the lead up to the Chinese New Year period when mills generally reduce production, but this does not appear to be the case this year.
Macarthur’s focus remains on delivering a high-quality, low-impurity magnetite fines product (+65% Fe) which will target Asian steel mills that are focused on producing quality steel products, enhanced furnace efficiencies, reduced consumption of coking coal and improved environment emissions standards.
In reflecting on the 2019 calendar year, it is pleasing to note the Company achieved all of its targeted goals for the year.”
Cadence CEO Kiran Morzaria commented: “While 2019 proved to be a bumper year for Macarthur and its shareholders, the company’s bullish outlook for 2020, along with management comments on the strength of the iron ore price, provides a strong endorsement for Cadence Minerals’ investment strategy, both into Macarthur and into our own iron ore project at Amapa, Brazil.”

Cadence Minerals (KDNC) – Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) Intersects High Grade Magnetite at its Lake Giles Iron Project, W Australia.
Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note the update yesterday from Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) (“Macarthur”) on the recent infill drilling program at its Lake Giles Iron Project in the Yilgarn region of Western Australia. Infill Drilling has intersected a zone of high-grade magnetite mineralisation identified previously at the Moonshine North deposit and assay results have been received for several Reverse Circulation (RC) drill holes.
Cadence Minerals Holding in Macarthur
Cadence holds approximately 7.4% of the issued equity interest in Macarthur, which is an Australian mining exploration company focused primarily on iron ore, nickel, lithium and gold in Western Australia. It also has a lithium project in Nevada, USA.
Highlights:
- Reverse Circulation drilling has successfully intersected the previously identified high grade magnetite mineralisation at Moonshine North.
- Hole LGRC_2160 intersected an interval 86m to 180m (94m) averaging 40.51% Fe (including the interval 121m to 171m with a grade of 47.52% Fe).
- Hole LGRC_2166 intersected the interval 95m to 152m (57m) averaging 40.23% Fe (including the interval 129m to 147m with a grade of 60.64% Fe).
- Diamond drill hole LGDD_071 drilled at Moonshine North has also intersected the high-grade magnetite mineralisation from a down hole depth of 91.5m to 162.74m (71.24m) with strong visual magnetite content.
The drilling programme commenced on 17 August 2019 and concluded on 8 December 2019 with a total of 21 RC holes and nine diamond drill holes completed.
The results of the drilling campaign have shown a successful intersection of high-grade magnetite mineralisation. Previous test work has demonstrated the potential to produce a processed high-grade magnetite concentrate of approximately 68-69%.

Macarthur Minerals Executive Chairman Cameron McCall commented: “The Company is extremely pleased with its successful listing on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) and the positive market response in the first two days of trading. Macarthur’s dual listing on the ASX and the TSX-V will provide the Company with increased opportunities in the pre-development stage of its flagship Moonshine Magnetite Project.
“With Australia as a major exporter of iron ore to the world and the ASX being the home exchange to some of the world’s largest iron ore producing companies, it makes sense for Macarthur to be dual listed in Australia.”
Cadence CEO Kiran Morzaria commented; “As major shareholders in the company, the Cadence board remains enthused by the ongoing potential at the Lake Giles Iron project, and the increased profile Macarthur now enjoys as a dual listed entity. We look forward to further updates.”

Cadence Minerals #KDNC – Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) Progress Update on Infill Resource Drilling at Its Lake Giles Iron Project in Western Australia
Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note an update today from Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) (“Macarthur”) on the progress of its infill drilling program of the Moonshine Magnetite deposit at its Lake Giles Iron Project in Western Australia.
Moonshine Magnetite Infill Drilling Program
The diamond and reverse circulation (RC) drilling program commenced in August in the central region of the Moonshine deposit.
The majority of the Moonshine and Moonshine North deposits are defined by drill hole spacing of 200m X 200m and classified as an Inferred Mineral Resource of approximately 710 mt of at 30.2% Fe.
The infill drilling program has been designed at closer drill hole spacing to upgrade the resource classification for some of the Moonshine deposit. The drilling program includes a planned total of 21 RC holes and 9 diamond holes for total drilling of 5,190 m.
The drilling program has been designed with the goal of upgrading the resource classification to include Indicated and Measured Mineral Resources. The updated mineral resource will underpin the Bankable Feasibility Study to be completed for the Lake Giles Iron Project.
The first batch of drill samples are being prepared for dispatch to the laboratory.
Drilling Highlights:
- Diamond drill hole LGDD_066 has intersected the Banded Iron Formation (“BIF”) unit from a down hole depth of 12.6 m and includes a section of 81.1 metres from 49.9m with strong visual magnetite content.
- Diamond drill hole LGDD_067 has intersected BIF from a down hole depth pf 68.5m with strong magnetite content through to current depth at 136m. Drilling is continuing to a planned depth of 240m.
- A third diamond hole has been pre-collared to 60m with the RC rig with diamond drilling scheduled to commence today.
- Reverse Circulation Drilling of hole LGRC_2146 has successfully intersected the western footwall contact of the BIF. Hole LGRC_2147 has intersected strong magnetite BIF from the eastern contact at 89m through to 203m and lower grade magnetite from 203m through to the western footwall contact at 274m downhole depth.
