MZI has recently settled the acquisition of a Keysbrook property securing the location of the wet concentrator, project access road, borefields, power infrastructure and initial mining activities. Combined with two smaller properties previously acquired in the Keysbrook project area, this acquisition makes the Company a significant landholder in the Keysbrook area.

A further RCF funding drawdown will be made in the first quarter of 2015 as the Keysbrook development progresses. RMB Australia Holdings Limited (RMB) senior debt facilities (approximately US$51 million) will be used to fund the completion of construction, commissioning and ramp up to full production.

The drawn and further available funding means the Keysbrook project is fully funded through to production with MZI’s corporate costs also fully funded through to the completion of construction.

Under the current project schedule construction and commissioning is due to be completed by December 2015 with first product shipments and revenue expected soon thereafter.

The recent restructuring of the Company’s share register which now includes a strong cornerstone investor in RCF and new institutional and high net worth shareholders alongside long term supportive shareholders such as Tricoastal Holdings Ltd, together with the debt funding support from RMB, places MZI in a strong corporate and financial position.
