Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) Update on High Grade Moonshine Magnetite and Ularring Hematite Projects

Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note that Macarthur Minerals (TSX-V: MMS) ("Macarthur") has provided an update the Moonshine Magnetite and Ularring Hematite Projects ("Projects") based upon revised production strategy and cost estimates, resulting in reduced Opex and Capex estimates. Cadence currently holds approximately 10% of the equity of Macarthur Minerals.

Highlights:

· Capacity at Port of Esperance now available

· Capacity on rail network available

· Hematite DSO Opex estimate reduced to A$42/tonne ("t") shipped free on board ("FOB")

· Magnetite Opex estimate reduced to $55/tonne FOB

· Capex estimate for a combined project reduced to US$335 million

· High margin for premium magnetite product >65% Fe

Macarthur has re-evaluated both the hematite and magnetite projects in response to current market trends of heavy discounting of low-grade iron ore and premium pricing for high grade iron ore. Additionally, Macarthur has been preparing to take advantage of the cessation of operations by Cleveland Cliffs Inc., which has paved the way for access to both rail and port infrastructure. This has been the greatest impediment to advancing the Projects into a production phase.

As well as a reduction in Opex and Capex estimates, the Macarthur investment case has also been strengthened by the access to rail and port infrastructure following cessation of operations by Cleveland Cliffs. We look forward to the next phase of developments."
