Cadence Minerals #KDNC – Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) announces that Assays have been completed for infill drilling of the Lake Giles Iron Project.
Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note that Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) (“Macarthur”) has recently received the final XRF and Davis Tube Recovery (DTR) assays for the infill drilling program completed at its Lake Giles Iron Project near Kalgoorlie in Western Australia. The DTR assays confirm significant intersections of magnetite mineralisation with DTR concentrate grades up to 68.9% Fe.
Cadence Minerals Holding in Macarthur
Cadence holds approximately 4.1% 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:
Drilling at the Moonshine North deposit comprised 21 reverse circulation (RC) holes for 3379 metres and 9 diamond drill (DD) holes for 1676.2 metres, totalling 5055.2m. A weighted average DTR concentrate grade of 66.6% Fe and weighted average mass recovery of 31.2% was recorded. A total of 25 holes were submitted for XRF and DTR analysis.
Macarthur has now engaged CSA Global to complete an updated resource model and classification.

Macarthur Executive Chairman Cameron McCall said; “The assay results for the infill drilling confirmed good intersections of magnetite. This has been a successful program, and these intersections will form the basis of a revised mineral resource estimate that will underpin the Feasibility Study. Macarthur has been working hard on progressing key components of the Lake Giles Iron Project, and is well underway in advancing discussions to achieve a contracted position with port and rail service providers. We look forward to informing investors about the outcomes of the updated resource classification that is anticipated to include Indicated and Measured Mineral Resources, and to further advising on progress on the Company’s march toward securing its route to market.”

Cadence Minerals (KDNC) – Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS, ASX: MIO) seeks Venture Partner to further explore its nickel projects in Western Australia.
Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note today’s update from Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS, ASX: MIO) (“Macarthur”) on the potential for cobalt and nickel mineralisation at its Lake Giles Iron Ore Project in Western Australia, following recent rock chip sampling that coincided with the Company’s magnetite infill drilling.
In 2018, a rock chip sampling program across the Snark prospect discovered samples containing the cobalt mineral asbolite with assays returning up to 2.6% cobalt and 2.0% nickel. In May 2018, a Moving Loop Electromagnetic (MLEM) geophysical survey was undertaken across the area that identified two compelling conductors coinciding with surface geochemical anomalies. In October 2019, the Company undertook further rock chip sampling confirming anomalous Nickel, Cobalt and Chromium grades that warrant further exploration.
Macarthur is currently focusing on its Lake Giles Iron Ore Project and is seeking a venture partner to further advance exploration of its nickel projects.

Cameron McCall, President and Executive Chairman of Macarthur Minerals commented:
“On the back of the Company’s initial exploration for nickel and base metals, the Company has undertaken a comprehensive review of its previous drilling and soil sample assays and targeted several areas for on-ground exploration. Recent exploration was successful in extending the anomalous nickel and cobalt rock samples along the extent of the bedrock conductor identified in mid-2018. The Company is now in the process of seeking a venture partner interested in furthering this opportunity at Lake Giles.”

Cadence Minerals (KDNC) – Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS, ASX: MIO) set to advance Moonshine nickel prospect with EIS co-funded drilling
Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note yesterday’s update from Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) (“Macarthur”), that it has been awarded a grant valued at $85,000 from the Western Australian Government to support drilling of a diamond drill hole at its Moonshine North Nickel Prospect, located within its Lake Giles Iron Project in Western Australia.
The grant is provided under the Exploration Incentive Scheme (EIS) administered by the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DMIRS). The program provides $5 million a year to encourage innovative drilling in greenfields and under-explored areas of the State and offers up to 50 per cent contribution to drilling costs.
Highlights:
- The EIS grant of $85,000 was awarded to Macarthur for a diamond drilling program targeting nickel mineralisation at Moonshine.
- Deep drilling is planned, targeting two prospective targets:
- A ~20,000 Siemens plate conductor (MC02) geophysical anomaly.
- An anomalous nickel horizon found in a nearby drill hole (LGDD_054) close to surface. This hole intersected 19 meters @ 1% Ni (from 8 meters to 27 meters) including 1 meter @ 1.42% Ni (from 13m). This weathered surface expression could be a secondary dispersion of a massive sulphide source at depth
Moonshine Nickel Prospect
The Moonshine North Nickel Prospect lies within the Lake Giles Iron Project located 150 kilometres northwest of Kalgoorlie and 450 kilometres north east of Perth in Western Australia.
The Project area covers part of the Yerilgee Archean Greenstone belt within the Yilgarn craton. The geology consists of volcanic sequences mainly comprising of high magnesium basalts, komatiitic and ultramafic flows with numerous interflow banded iron formations (BIFs). The ultramafic rocks at Lake Giles are considered of Kambalda komatiite type. The extensive komatiite sequences of thick olivine cumulate flow units and felsic-intermediate volcanism indicates that the area fits a regional geological criterion for hosting komatiite nickel sulphide deposits such as those existing nickel mines within the Kalgoorlie Terrane.

Cadence Minerals #KDNC – Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) (ASX: MIO) reports strong progress on Feasibility Study for Lake Giles iron project.
Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note today’s update from Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) (“Macarthur”), that is pushing ahead on the Feasiblity Study for its Lake Giles Iron Project in Western Australia, despite strong economic headwinds caused by the coronavirus crisis.
Progress to Date
XRF assays and David Tube Recovery (DTR) analysis from the infill drilling program completed at the end of 2019 have confirmed significant intersections of magnetite mineralisation. Results of these assays were released to the market by Macarthur on January 16, 2020. These results are now being incorporated into an updated mineral resource model currently being prepared by CSA Global.
Meanwhile, detailed ‘route to market’ studies including port and rail designs have commenced and remain a key priority. These studies 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.
The full release can be found at: https://web.tmxmoney.com/article.php?newsid=5403569500482534&qm_symbol=MMS
Macarthur Executive Chairman Cameron McCall commented: “Investor confidence across the board has taken a hit lately but we’re confident that Macarthur 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. While the prices of most major commodities are wilting in the face of the coronavirus, iron ore has been resilient with the benchmark 62% Fe product hovering around a relatively robust $US90 per tonne, that’s up from $US72 in November last year. Lower oil prices, lower shipping rates between China and Australia as well as a declining Australian to United States dollar should see a rapid rebalancing as all these variables impact positively on corporate returns”
Cadence Minerals CEO Kiran Morzaria added: “As markets around the world continue to reel from the human and economical impact from the Coronavirus, a resilient iron ore price continues to support both our investment strategy into Macarthur Minerals and our Amapa Iron ore project investment in Brazil. We look forward to further progress updates from Macarthur.”
