During the quarter, the company advised that further to the announcement dated 15 December 2015, the Conditions Precedent to the Sale of the Company's Moolap Property had not been met and the Agreement terminated.
Subsequent to the quarter's end, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary Alreco Pty Ltd entered into a Deed of Settlement and Release with Alcoa in connection with the lease of the Hays Road property and the associated remediation obligation. The Deed of Settlement and Release was effected through payment by Alreco to Alcoa of $1m AUD and Alcoa's discharge of its security over a
$350,000 AUD bank guarantee and the property at 80 Buckley Grove, Moolap held by Alreco.
A provision for this liability had already been accounted for in the company's 2016 Annual Report, in the amount of $1m AUD.
Separately, MHM advised the market that it had entered into a confidential Deed of Settlement with Stone Resources Limited (ASX: SHK) in connection with a matter last disclosed to the market on 11 April 2016.
The Company will keep the market informed as it continues to pursue the orderly wind up of its legacy operations.
Business Development
On 12 July 2016 the Company announced to the market that it had become a significant shareholder in KIN Mining NL (ASX: KIN). In this capacity it sought to discuss an indicative, non-binding merger proposal with KIN. On 14 July 2016 KIN advised the market that it was unwillingly to discuss the proposal with the Company and MHM ceased to be a substantial shareholder on 19 July 2016.
