Update on the Amapa Iron Ore Project

Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to provide an update on its investment in the Amapa Iron Ore Project ("Amapa Project"), Brazil.

Further to Cadence's announcement on the 10 February 2021, we can confirm that the court ruling has been published and therefore it is now effective.

DEV Mineraço S.A's ("DEV") can now commence operations to ship sufficient iron ore to realise a US$10 million profit from the Amapa stockpiles situated at its port (after the deductions of all logistical, regulatory, shipping and sale costs). We look forward to updating shareholders when operations recommence at the port

Discussions continue between DEV, Cadence and Indo Sino Pty Ltd ("the Investors") and the secured bank creditors ("Bank Creditors") in relation to a final settlement agreement. The execution of a final settlement agreement with the Bank Creditors would represent the satisfaction of Cadence's remaining major precondition to make its initial 20% investment in the Amapa Project. On completion of the conditions and the release of the Cadence escrow monies, Cadence will become a 20% shareholder in the Amapá Project via our joint venture company, which will own 99.9% of DEV.
