About IMX Resources Limited
IMX Resources Limited is an Australian-based exploration company, listed on the Australian Securities Exchange and Toronto Stock Exchange, with projects located in Tanzania, east Africa.
In Tanzania, IMX controls (85%) of the Nachingwea Property in south-eastern Tanzania. The Nachingwea Property lies in the world-class Mozambique Belt which is prospective for graphite, nickel, gold and copper mineralization.
At Nachingwea, IMX is rapidly assessing its Chilalo Graphite Project. IMX is also carrying out exploration at its Kishugu Gold Prospect as well as conducting exploration elsewhere on the large, underexplored Nachingwea Property.
On 16 December 2014, IMX entered into a Project Acquisition Agreement, under which, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, it agreed a new joint venture with Loricatus Resource Investments (‘Fig Tree’), an investment vehicle on behalf of Mauritius-based mining private equity fund, Fig Tree Resources Fund II, covering its Ntaka Hill Nickel Project.
Under the Project Acquisition Agreement, Fig Tree will acquire a 70.65 per cent stake in the Ntaka Hill Nickel Project from the IMX-managed Nachingwea JV between IMX (85%) and MMG Limited (15%) for US$5.88 million cash.
Fig Tree can maintain its 70.65 per cent stake in Ntaka Hill by sole funding the project through to completion of a Feasibility Study (‘FS’) within 5 years. If Fig Tree does not meet its obligation to complete the FS, Fig Tree's interest in Ntaka Hill will reduce to 50 per cent.
Subject to the completion of the Ntaka Hill joint venture with Fig Tree, IMX will receive US$5.88 million cash and retain an effective 25% interest in the Ntaka Hill Nickel Project, while Fig Tree will manage and sole fund a Feasibility Study in respect of a lower capex, higher grade nickel sulphide operation.
Ntaka Hill hosts a Measured and Indicated Resource of 20.3Mt at 0.58 per cent nickel and 0.13 per cent copper for 117,880 tonnes of contained nickel. The Inferred Resource is 35.9Mt at 0.66 per cent nickel and 0.14 per cent copper for 238,500 tonnes of contained nickel (see ASX announcement 19 August 2013). Since announcing the Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource and Inferred Mineral Resource at Ntaka Hill on 19 August 2013, IMX confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in that announcement and that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in that announcement continue to apply and have not materially changed.
Cautionary Statement: The TSX does not accept responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release. No stock exchange, securities commission or other regulatory authority has approved or disapproved the information contained herein.
On 19 June 2014 IMX announced the appointment of Voluntary Administrators to Termite Resources NL (“Termite”). Termite was wholly-owned by an incorporated joint venture entity, the board of which comprised nominees of IMX and Taifeng Yuanchuang International Development Co., Ltd. Termite held the joint venture's interests in the Cairn Hill iron ore mine, located 55 kilometres south-west of Cooper Pedy in South Australia.
The Voluntary Administrator's final report to creditors was issued on 4 September 2014 and the second meeting of creditors took place on 15 September 2014, at which creditors voted to place Termite in liquidation.
