“On behalf of the Cadence board, I would like to put on record our gratitude and appreciation of the tireless efforts of all of those involved in getting this shipment completed in an safe and efficient manner and ahead of schedule. This landmark first shipment from Amapa would not have been possible without the support of the local authorities and the state agencies who have not only assisted us in completing our first shipment but have also made a material difference in our efforts to create ne employment and economic activity in the region.”

Cadence Interest In the Amapa Iron Project
In early September 2020, we announced that DEV Mineração S.A’s, Cadence and Indo Sino Pty Ltd agreed in principle to the settlement terms proposed by the secured bank creditors. Detailed discussions and drafting of the legal documents continue.
The execution of a settlement agreement with the Bank Creditors would represent the satisfaction of Cadence Minerals’ remaining major precondition to make its initial 20% investment in the Amapa Project. On completion of the conditions and the release of the KDNC escrow monies, the company will become a 20% shareholder in the Amapá Project via our joint venture company, which will own 99.9% of DEV.
