Corporate Update

Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to provide an update on the progress of three of its investments.

Amapá Iron Ore Project

Cadence is pleased to report that the pre-feasibility study for the Amapá Iron Ore Project has now been completed, and an announcement is expected to be released early in the New Year.

Evergreen Lithium Pty Ltd ("Evergreen")

In July 2022, Cadence sold its 31.5% stake in Lithium Technologies and Lithium Supplies ("LT & LS") to Evergreen. The terms of the sale included an initial consideration of AS$ 3.16 million (£1.77 million) in Evergreen shares, with a further AS$ 6.63 million (£3.72 million) due in Evergreen equity on the achievement of certain performance milestones.

Although Evergreen had expected a listing on the Australian Stock Exchange ("ASX") to occur this calendar year, it is still awaiting final regulatory approval. Once approval has been granted by the ASX, Cadence will provide a further update along with a definitive timeline.

The full announcement concerning the LT & LS sale is available here.

Yangibana Rare Earths project ("Yangibana")

In June 2022, Cadence entered into a binding agreement to sell its working interests and tenements in Yangibana to Hastings Technology Metals (ASX: HAS) ("Hastings") for A$9 million (£5.1 million), satisfied by the issue of fully paid ordinary Hastings shares. Cadence's 30% interest in tenements covers a small portion of the Yangibana project and potentially represents one year of the 16-year mine life.

All of the preconditions for the completion of the sale, apart from state approval for the transfer of the mineral licenses, have been satisfied. Once completed, Cadence will provide a further update and a definitive timeline.
