Cadence Minerals #KDNC – Macarthur Minerals TSX-V: #MMS appoints Capstan Capital Partners as Exclusive Advisers to Advance Its Significant Iron Ore Projects in Australia
12th September 2018 / Leave a comment
Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note that Macarthur Minerals (“Macarthur”, TSX-V: MMS) has entered into an exclusive advisory agreement with UK based Capstan Capital Partners LLP (“Capstan”) to seek the necessary funding required to advance Macarthur’s significant iron ore projects located in Western Australia.
Highlights:
- Macarthur owns 100% of the Macarthur Iron Ore Projects, which are located on approved mining tenements covering approximately 62 km2 and are located 175 km northwest of Kalgoorlie in W Australia. The Macarthur Iron Ore Projects consist of two distinct mineral projects:
- The Ularring Hematite Project: encompassing hematite iron ore (“hematite”), to be marketed as potential direct shipping and/or beneficiated iron ore; and
- The Moonshine Magnetite Project: encompassing magnetite iron ore (“magnetite”), to be marketed as a beneficiated magnetite concentrate.
- The Ularring Hematite Project has been fully approved for mining and the Company has been maintaining the core iron ore projects’ assets in good standing with the Western Australian Government, since their discovery. The Moonshine Magnetite Project presents a very large untapped resource of mostly high-grade magnetite with an expected productive life of at least 50 years.
- The Company has been reviewing its iron ore projects in light of the emergence of rail and port capacity through to the Port of Esperance and the cessation of mining at Cleveland-Cliffs Inc’s Asia Pacific Iron Ore projects and Mineral Resources Limited’s Carina project.
Cadence holds approximately 12% of the issued equity interest in Macarthur, which is an Australian mining exploration company focused primarily on lithium, iron ore and gold in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. It also has a lithium project in Nevada, USA.

Cadence Minerals CEO Kiran Morzaria commented:“This agreement with Capstan is testament once again to the quality and diversity of the Macarthur asset portfolio. Cadence are also of the view that we are entering in to a new prolonged upward trend cycle for iron ore, and this new agreement, along with the raft of recent developments announced across Macarthur’s other projects provides, what the Company believes, is a positive ongoing investment proposition.”

Cadence Minerals #KDNC – Macarthur Minerals TSX-V: #MMS identifies 18 High Priority Conductors for Gold at Hillside Gold Project in Pilbara, W Australia
5th September 2018 / Leave a comment
Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note that Macarthur Minerals (“Macarthur”, TSX-V: MMS) has identified 18 High Priority Conductors for Gold from its recent heliborne SkyTEM electromagnetic survey at the Hillside Gold Project in Pilbara, Western Australia. The discovery also includes two isolated discrete bedrock conductors. Macarthur has confirmed that all anomalies correlate with historic gold workings, surface copper and gold geochemical anomalies, magnetic anomalies or fault systems.
Highlights:
- The heliborne SkyTEM survey was flown over 846 line-kilometres at 150m-line spacing covering a total area of 127 km2.Data was captured across two disjunct areas; Area 1 in the north covering 76 km2 and Area 2 in the south covering 51 km2.
- Data was processed by geophysicists at Newexco Services Pty Ltd. All observed anomalies were ranked against multiple criteria with a total of 18 anomalies considered to be high priority for follow-up in the field and consideration as a drill target.
- Area 1 of the Aerial Electronic Magnetic (“AEM”) results showed a series of stratigraphic conductors running north-south along the eastern flank of the survey area.
- Area 2 shows a prominent stratigraphic conductor running along the western side of the survey area, and also contains two discrete conductors central to the survey area. These conductors are interpreted as being “isolated” and may be sources by confined bedrock conductors, which in some cases can be associated with massive sulphide accumulations such as gold and copper.
- The two discrete conductors are considered likely to be associated with volcanogenic massive sulphide (“VMS”) style copper-gold mineralization and hence are high priority targets. Previously recorded gold and copper anomalies and gold workings lie directly to the north and south along strike of these discrete anomalies. It is speculated that the two discrete conductors could host similar deposits at depth, VMS style.
The identified multiple outstanding anomalies identified will require follow-up exploration in the field. Geological mapping and geochemical sampling will be undertaken across these target areas, followed by drilling of selected targets.
Cadence holds approximately 12% of the issued equity interest in Macarthur, which is an Australian mining exploration company focused primarily on lithium, iron ore and gold in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. It also has a lithium project in Nevada, USA.

Cadence Minerals CEO Kiran Morzaria commented:“The dataset recorded from the SkyTEM electromagnetic survey proves that the right geology exists at the Hillside Gold Project, and adds further credence to the project economics for Cameron McCall and the Macarthur Minerals team.”
“From the Cadence Minerals perspective, the update today significantly improves the investment case, and we look forward to the next phase of developments.”

Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: #KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to update its shareholders in relation its strategic shift as announced 1 November 2017 and developments in its other investments.
New Investments
As outlined in Cadence’s announcement on 1 November 2017, the Company was at the advanced stages of reviewing several early stage lithium assets in well-known lithium jurisdictions.
The Company has now completed due diligence on two of these assets and anticipates that it will be able to execute binding investment agreements prior to the end of the year with exploration beginning in earnest in Q1 next year.
The Company’s intent is to earn in at a project level basis where it can both hold larger stakes and utilise its management expertise to achieve the high level of returns that we have made on our portfolio to date.
The Company will announce details of the assets and terms of the transactions once it has executed the binding investment agreements.
European Metals Holdings Limited – Equity Raise
European Metals Holdings Limited #EMH has announced a capital raising of £2,281,000 via subscriptions to predominantly UK based professional investors.
The funds will be used to advance the on-going definitive feasibility on the Cinovec deposit, Europe’s largest lithium resource, and for general working capital.
Cadence has subscribed for £345,000 of new ordinary shares and after the issue of these shares, which is expected to occur on the 14 December 2017, Cadence will hold approximately 20% of the enlarged issued share capital of EMH. Cadence’s overall unrealised return on its investment in EMH is 208%.
Macarthur Minerals – Majority of Tenements in Pilbara Region Granted Exploration Licences
Macarthur Minerals has announced that eleven out of its sixteen Exploration Licences in the Pilbara, Western Australia, covering circa 1,300 km2 have now been granted allowing full exploration activities on those tenements for conglomerate gold, gold and lithium. The remaining licences are expected to be granted shortly.
Cadence has a 15.2% equity interest in Macarthur, which is an Australian mining exploration company focused primarily on lithium, iron ore and gold in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. It also has a lithium project in Nevada, USA.
Yangibana Rare Earth Project – Update
Cadence announced on 22 November 2017 an updated Mineral Resource Statement (“MRE”) for the tenements 30%-owned by Cadence on the Yangibana Rare Earth Project. This MRE represented 36% of the total MRE over the Yangibana Rare Earth Project including areas 100% held by Hastings Technology Metals #HAS.

The MRE on our partly owned tenements has similar grades to those reported in the total MRE.
Subsequently HAS announced its definitive feasibility study (“DFS”), which was based on mining ore reserves of 5.15 million tonnes for 6 years followed by a further 2 years of mining mineral resources. The DFS contemplates mining in areas wholly owned by HAS.
Given the summary economic information on capital and operating costs, the 5.6 million tonnes of total resource contained with the jointly owned areas, we believe still represents significant value to Cadence. We have engaged with HAS to determine how this can be achieved.
Details of Ownership of Yangibana Rare Earth Deposit
On 1 December 2011, Cadence announced that it had acquired a 30% free carried interest to Bankable Feasibility Study of the Yangibana North Rare Earth Deposit. The exploration costs until the commencement of the BFS are therefore borne solely by Hastings (70% owners and operator). The same terms agreed and announced on 1 December 2012 also apply to Gossan, Hook, Kanes Gossan, Lions Ear and Bald Hill North.
Since the acquisition of this asset Cadence has not been required to invest any further capital in the development of the jointly owned tenements.
