PERTH, AUSTRALIA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/11/13 -- IMX Resources Limited (ASX: IXR)(TSX: IXR)(TSX: IXR.WT) ('IMX' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce that the Linq Resources Revolving Line of Credit (the 'Line of Credit'), which was fully repaid by Termite Resources NL in December 2012, has now been terminated.
The Line of Credit was due to expire on 30 May 2013 but was fully repaid in December 2012, well short of the facility's term. The early repayment and termination of the Line of Credit reflects the strong positive cash flow generated by iron ore sales from the Cairn Hill Iron Ore Mine over the previous year and the significant reductions in operating costs and improvement in iron ore prices in the previous two quarters.
Neil Meadows, Managing Director of IMX said, "The termination of the Line of Credit reflects the Company's reduced requirement for such a facility given the strong positive cash flows being generated by Cairn Hill. The Termite joint venture between IMX and Taifeng is now debt free.
IMX and Taifeng enjoy a very positive and constructive joint venture partnership and we are both keen to see the proceeds of our hard work and success at Cairn Hill flow into creating even bigger opportunities for growth, particularly in our Tanzanian projects."
NEIL MEADOWS, Managing Director
About IMX Resources Limited
IMX Resources Limited is an Australian based mining and base and precious metals exploration company, listed on the Australian Securities Exchange ('ASX') and Toronto Stock Exchange ('TSX'), with exploration projects located in Australia, Africa and North America.
In Africa, IMX owns and operates the highly prospective Nachingwea Exploration Project in south-east Tanzania, which includes the potentially world-class Ntaka Hill Nickel Sulphide project. Nachingwea is highly prospective for nickel and copper sulphide, gold and graphite mineralisation. The Ntaka Hill Nickel Sulphide Project is one of the world's best un-developed nickel sulphide projects and has the potential to produce a very clean, high quality premium nickel concentrate.
In Australia, IMX operates and owns 51% of the Cairn Hill Mining Operation, located 55 kilometres south-east of Coober Pedy in South Australia, where it produces a premium coarse-grained magnetite-copper-gold DSO product at a rate of 1.8Mtpa.
IMX is actively developing the Mt Woods Magnetite Project on the highly prospective Mt Woods Inlier in South Australia. IMX currently has a JORC Inferred Resource of 569Mt @ 27% Fe at the Snaefell Magnetite Deposit and a Global Exploration Target of between 200-380Mt @ 25-35% Fe elsewhere in the project. Studies indicate that coarse grained concentrates that could be produced at Snaefell have the potential to produce a direct sinter feed product which has the potential to attract a significant price premium.
IMX has a joint venture with OZ Minerals (the Mt Woods Copper-Gold Joint Venture Project) to explore the Mt Woods tenements for copper and gold. OZ Minerals is spending a minimum of $20M for a 51% interest in the non-iron rights, with IMX retaining a 49% interest in the non-iron rights and 100% of the iron ore rights.
IMX owns 25.65% of Uranex (ASX: UNX), a dedicated uranium exploration company, which is developing the Mkuju Uranium project in southern Tanzania.
