ACDC Metals on the highway to ASX listing

The explorer is seeking to raise $8 million through an initial public offering (IPO) of 40 million shares at $0.20 each, which would give it a market capitalization on listing of $14.5 million.

Mineral sands projects

ACDC’s three Murray Basin projects have been discovered across two styles: strandline, which are narrow, long and high-grade deposits containing zircon and titanium; and Wimmera industrial minerals (WIM) style, which sit as planar and extensive, with significant monazite (REE) content.

Previous work was undertaken in the late 1980s and early 1990s at Goschen Central, located 50km south-southwest of Swan Hill in northern Victoria, with early drilling targeting high-grade coarse-grained strandline style deposits. A large WIM-style heavy minerals deposit was defined within the south-west quadrant of the exploration licence.

ACDC notes another explorer reviewing a similar area in 2002 had estimated zircon grades of 20-27% with additional REE and titanium minerals.

ACDC’s Douglas project comprises two exploration licences: Acapulco and Chetwynd, which had planned to be mined by historical owners by projects were halted due to prevailing commodity prices at the time.

Post-listing, the company plans to define a JORC 2012-compliant resource and undertake scoping and feasibility studies at both Goschen Central and Douglas.

A drilling program is also planned at ACDC’s third project, Watchem, a strandline-style deposit that lies in close proximity to the Donald mineral sands project owned by Astron Corporation (ASX: ATR).

Medallion monazite process

Under a definitive agreement signed in October, ACDC was granted the right to use Medallion’s proprietary monazite processing technology to extract REE from monazite sourced as a by-product of heavy mineral sand production.

The licence agreement included the issue of 4.5 million ACDC shares to Medallion, bringing Medallion’s shareholding in ACDC to about 15% (pre-IPO). Upon successful completion of a pilot plant utilising the Medallion monazite process, the company will receive an additional 2.5 million ACDC shares by converting performance shares.

To take advantage of this technology, ACDC plans to construct a mineral sand monazite processing plant for south-eastern Australia

Upon commercial production, Medallion will be able to convert other performance rights into an additional 750,000 ACDC shares. Following full conversion, Medallion would own 8.05 million shares of ACDC.

Medallion also has the right to purchase or place up to 20% of the ACDC shares issued in the IPO subject to approval of the lead underwriter and Medallion’s diluted ownership not exceeding 19.9% of ACDC’s issued share capital (including the conversion of all performance rights).

In addition, ACDC will pay Medallion a 2% royalty on the sale of mixed REE compounds and other minerals produced by the company’s projects and processed using the Medallion monazite process.

Company Profile

ACDC holds three mineral sand projects on the edge of the Murray Basin in western Victoria – Goschen Central, Douglas and Watchem – where past drilling has demonstrated zircon, leucoxene, rutile and monazite mineralization.

Raised funds from the IPO will be divided between the three projects for drilling and further exploration studies, in addition to monazite processing, which involves extracting and separating REE from monazite mineral sands using technology exclusively licensed from Canada-based Medallion Resources (TSX-V: MDL). Proceeds will also be allocated to corporate and working capital.

Orpheus Minerals launches $6m IPO to fund domestic uranium Exploration to ASX listing

Orpheus has launched a $6 million initial public offering to kick-start exploration and provide funds for it to chase high-grade sandstone or sediment-hosted and unconformity (hard rock) deposits.

Portfolio of assets

Argonaut has compiled a portfolio of assets within Orpheus and its wholly-owned subsidiary Trachre through direct application as well as corporate transactions with tenement holders.

It includes early-stage projects at Frome/Erudina and Cummins (in South Australia) and Mount Douglas (Northern Territory) and new applications at Ranger-North East (30 kilometers from the decommissioned Ranger uranium mine), T-Bone (the broader area containing at least 13 uranium deposits and 15 occurrences) and Woolner.

The project generation initiative will focus on areas which have seen limited exploration since Australia’s uranium boom of the 1970s, with Orpheus targeting paleochannel and unconformity uranium deposits that are amenable to simple and economic extraction methods.

Orpheus said an opportunity exists to achieve “science-led exploration success” by leveraging new geophysical datasets in terrains which have lacked modern, systematic uranium exploration.

Uranium production

Last year, South Australia and the Northern Territory were responsible for the production of 4,192 tons of uranium, or approximately 8.7% of total world output.

Orpheus aims to capitalize on this success, led by an executive team with experience in the application of advanced techniques for uranium exploration and a track record of financing and developing resource projects around the world.

Underpinning the company’s strategy is a forecast increase in mid to long-term global demand for uranium in an environment where supply from stable jurisdictions (such as Australia) is currently in structural decline.

The World Nuclear Association has predicted demand will jump 27% from now until 2030 and a 38% from 2030 to 2040, with this demand expected to come mostly from the US, Europe or North Asia.

These regions use uranium in the production of zero-emissions power (meaning they do not directly output carbon dioxide during electricity production) and are considered to be viable and safe options for nuclear generation to meet increasing energy needs.

Company Profile

The company, which is a spin-out of Argonaut Resources (ASX: ARE), will also have a significant project generation budget with the aim to expand and build its pipeline.

Orpheus’ IPO will be based on the issue of a minimum 30 million shares at $0.20 each and will comprise a $3 million priority offer for Argonaut shareholders and a $3 million broker firm and general public offer. Argonaut will retain a 26.9% interest following completion of the offer. The offer is being led by Adelaide based broker Taylor Collison and Becketts Lawyers. Orpheus is expected to list on the ASX before month end using the ticker code ‘ORP’.

Tiger Tasman Minerals seeks ASX listing to advance battery metal and industrial mineral projects

The company is especially hopeful that funds from its initial public offering (IPO) will enable it to advance a feasibility study at its flagship Iron Skarn polymetallic project in North Queensland.

ESG focus and battery metals demand

In a roadshow presentation, Tiger Tasman described its focus on multi-commodity metals essential to electrification and decarbonization as its point of difference. It has an environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) centric business strategy targeting carbon-neutral status for its operations and a goal of joining the United Nations Global Compact.

The company presented data forecasting rapid growth in the battery market each year as the world continues to transition to electric vehicles, renewable energy generation and energy storage. It also pointed to a 100,000-times increase in demand for raw materials with charging station storage batteries containing more than 600kg of copper alone.

In the chairman’s letter of the prospectus, Tiger Tasman non-executive chairman Richard Beazley said demand for the minerals and metals the company is focusing its exploration efforts on is expected to be “strong” as they are essential to the electrification and decarbonisation of the global economy.

“The company has brought together a board and exploration team with a proven track record and diverse range of skills in the resources industry of Australia and abroad,” he added.

“This uniquely qualified team offers experience and success across the realms of exploration, development, finance and acquisitions and is poised to aggressively explore and develop the projects.”

Iron Skarn pre-development project

Tiger Tasman’s flagship pre-development Iron Skarn polymetallic project comprises one granted exploration permit located 40km from Townsville in the Barringha region of Queensland.

The 12sq km tenement is considered prospective for base metals and hosts the Iron Glen polymetallic skarn deposit, which has an existing JORC 2012 inferred mineral resource estimate of 1.92 million tonnes at 29.3% iron, and 2.9Mt at 13.1 grams per ton silver (outside of the magnetite skarn).

Significant exploration upside has been identified at the Lead Belly prospect, which Tiger Tasman believes could potentially expand the resource inventory.

Up to $1.03 million of the IPO funds (at maximum subscription) have been allocated to undertaking a feasibility study at the Iron Skarn project in the first two years following the company’s ASX listing.

Further exploration planned for the project includes geochemical studies and mapping of Lead Belly, as well as tenement compliance exploration.

Copper Canyon project

Another exploration priority for Tiger Tasman is the underexplored Copper Canyon copper-gold project, made up of 502 sq km under application in WA’s Paterson Province. It is regarded as a tier one exploration destination with neighbors including major companies such as Rio Tinto (ASX: RIO), Newcrest Mining (ASX: NCM) and Cyprium Metals (ASX: CYM).

More than $800,000 of the IPO funds has been earmarked for the Copper Canyon project with planned exploration to include mapping, surface geochemical sampling, heritage surveys, induced polarisation (IP) survey and data processing, as well as drilling of targets identified from the surveying.

Tiger Tasman considered the project “very favorable” in prospectivity, with two anomalies identified on the eastern and western boundaries of the tenement, as well as the number of tier one operating mines and discoveries within a 60km radius of the project (Nifty, Telfer, Winu, Havieron).

Other WA Exploration projects

Additionally, Tiger Tasman also plans to use a portion of its IPO funds for exploration at its three other early-stage projects in WA including detailed mapping, surface geochemical sampling, heritage surveys, IP survey and data processing, and planned drilling and assays in the first 12 months from IPO.

These projects include Fraser Range, located in WA’s Yilgarn Province about 60km from IGO’s (ASX: IGO) Nova nickel mine. At Fraser Range, Tiger Tasman is targeting lithium, nickel, copper and zinc.

Recent exploration work has mapped the presence of pegmatites and samples are awaiting assay to confirm lithium mineralization.

The project is 50Km from the Bald Hill lithium mine and Buldania lithium discovery in what is regarded as the “lithium belt” in WA.

Tiger Tasman’s Mt Minnie project is prospective for high-grade manganese in the Ashburton region where a 4km strike at surface is returning grades exceeding 40% manganese.

The company has mapped the targets and completed sampling at the project.

Over at the Crater project, Tiger Tasman is targeting copper, zinc, lead, silver and gold in the Earaheedy Basin.

Company Profile

It has also assembled rights to acquire 100% interests in Western Australian projects targeting battery and precious metals including lithium, copper, nickel, manganese, zinc, silver and gold.

Tiger Tasman is seeking to raise between $5.1 million and $8 million through the issue of 25.5 million to 40 million shares priced at $0.20 per share. Upon listing, the company is anticipated to have an indicative market capitalization of $9.57 million to $12.47 million (undiluted).

The company’s IPO launched last month and is scheduled to close in October. It expects to start trading on the ASX under the ticker code ‘T1G’.
