Macarthur Minerals Investment Highlights Macarthur Minerals is an Australian company focused on identifying and developing high-grade lithium projects. Macarthur Minerals currently holds 13 exploration license applications covering a total area of 1,192 square kilometers across the Pilbara, Ravensthorpe and Mid-West regions of Western Australia.
Rare Earth Minerals PLC (AIM:REM, OTC:REMMY) recently made a strategic investment in Macarthur Minerals. REM has a joint-venture partnership with Bacanora Minerals in the Sonora Lithium Project in Mexico—the only project in the world to have an offtake agreement with Tesla.
Macarthur Minerals is managed by a strong team of exploration and finance professionals. The team recently completed a modest capital raise which will bring its lithium projects through the initial stage of field reconnaissance in mid-2016. The Company will seek further capital to develop its projects.
Macarthur Minerals has a “shovel-ready” iron ore project, in Western Australia’s Yilgarn region. This project and the Company’s other iron ore project is on care and maintenance due to the current oversupplied iron ore market.
