Macarthur Minerals Limited (ASX:MIO) (CVE:MMS) (OTCMKTS:MMSDF) has finalised an agreement with Arrow Minerals Ltd (ASX:AMD) on land tenure for a proposed magnetite processing plant at the Lake Giles Iron Project.

This land will support the development of infrastructure associated with a proposed magnetite processing circuit at Macarthurs Lake Giles project.

Under the agreement, which was originally entered into in December 2019, Arrow will permit Macarthur to apply for and obtain a general purpose lease and a miscellaneous licence.

The substantial package of land covers about 4,950 hectares and is within the boundary of Arrows exploration licences E30/393 and E30/394.

This land is adjacent to Macarthurs Moonshine magnetite deposit with an inferred resource of 710 million tonnes and will be used for constructing supporting infrastructure including a processing plant, camp, airstrip, tailings storage facility and waste rocks dumps.

“Another positive step”[hhmc]

Macarthur Minerals president and executive chairman Cameron McCall said: “The completion of the agreement with Arrow has secured the rights necessary to enable the design and location of critical infrastructure associated with the magnetite processing plant which will be finalised as part of the feasibility study for the Lake Giles Iron Project.

"It is another positive step for the company as it transitions to becoming a producer of high-grade magnetite.”

Consideration for the agreement is a cash payment to Arrow of A$250,000, which was paid in December 2019, and a share payment comprising the issue of Macarthur shares to the value of A$250,000.
