Under the Farm-in and Joint Venture Agreement, Fortescue will invest up to $14M over six years to earn a 75% joint venture interest in the project. Additionally, Fortescue will subscribe for 75,946,151 shares in Magmatic Resources (MAG) to hold a 19.9% stake, representing a 10% premium to MAG's 30-day volume-weighted average price at 31 January 2024.
We are excited to joint venture and partner with Fortescue to advance our exploration efforts across the Myall Project area. Myall has many of the signatures of a Tier 1 copper-gold deposit and Magmatic has recognized the need to partner with a major to further advance the project following the maiden Resource. Fortescue's cornerstone investment in MAG will allow the Company to simultaneously advance our other two projects at Wellington North and Parkes which are strategically located near Alkane Resources Boda-Kaiser deposits and Tomingley Gold Operations respectively.
