Strategic Partnership with Zijin Mining Group

Since entering into the April 2022 strategic partnership with Zijin Mining Group Co., Ltd (Zijin), Xanadu worked closely with Zijin to progress the Company’s flagship Kharmagtai Copper-Gold Project, including the following commercial stages.

  1. April 2022: Placement to raise ~A$5.6 million and providing Zijin with a 9.9% shareholding in Xanadu
  2. March 2023: Placement to raise ~A$7.2 million and providing Zijin with a 19.4% shareholding in Xanadu
  3. March 2023: Creation of a 50/50 JV, Khuiten Metals, that holds a 76.5% effective interest in Kharmagtai. Zijin has invested US$35.0 million in the JV to fund the Kharmagtai PFS and exploration until September 2024
  4. December 2024: On delivery of the PFS, transition of JV Operatorship to Zijin, and the vesting of two 6-month options, granted for Xanadu’s benefit by the original Zijin investment agreement.

Following delivery of the 18-month PFS in October 2024, Xanadu has the option to:

  1. Exercise a six-month put option to sell its 50% share of the Phase 3 JV (interest in Khuiten Metals) to Zijin for US$50 million;
  2. Exercise a six-month put option to sell half of its share of the Phase 3 JV (25%) to Zijin for US$25 million plus a loan carry for Xanadu’s remaining ~19.1% share of costs until commercial production at Kharmagtai; or
  3. Elect to fund its share of the project Feasibility Study and Construction

Alternative outcomes for Xanadu include corporate level transactions.
