Macarthur Minerals Limited (ASX: MIO) (TSX-V: MMS) (OTCQB: MMSDF) (the Company or Macarthur) is pleased to announce that the Offer to subscribe for shares in the IPO of Infinity Mining Limited (Infinity) opened on 5 November 2021. The prospectus can be downloaded from the Infinity website here: www.infinitymining.com.au.

Macarthur Australia Limited, a subsidiary of Macarthur, as the majority shareholder, will work closely with Infinity to develop these assets to maximize shareholder value. The current commodities market is enjoying impressive gains, especially with copper, which recently traded at a five-year high and is up 38.09% over a one year period, lithium has exploded to the upside, up 398.72% over a one year period (source: https://tradingeconomics.com/commodity/copper). The timing to develop these assets is ideal and further diversifies Macarthur enhancing the opportunity to drive additional value to shareholders.

Andrew Bruton, CEO of Macarthur Minerals commented:

“Macarthur over the course of the last 5 years through Infinity (previously Macarthur Lithium Pty Ltd) has acquired a portfolio of base metals assets in the Pilbara Region of Western Australia to add additional value to its exploration portfolio. With the Company’s core focus now on the development of its Lake Giles Iron Project, a spinout of these projects allows Macarthur the opportunity to see these assets developed whilst maintaining a material shareholding. We believe this is a win-win for our shareholders.”

Joe Phillips, Managing Director of Macarthur Minerals commented:

“Macarthur is pleased to report that the Offer under the Infinity Prospectus opened at 9.00am AEST on 5 November 2021. Post listing, Macarthur will remain the major shareholder and the Corporate team will provide the necessary shared service through to Infinity on “arm’s length” commercial terms. Infinity Mining has commenced building a separate technical and geological team to plan a very active campaign both in the Pilbara and the Central Goldfields over the course of the next several months.”

On behalf of the Board of Directors, Mr Cameron McCall, Chairman
