Update on the Proposed Divestment of the Hendeka-South Woodie
Woodie Manganese Project to Advanced Energy Fuels, Inc
Trek Metals Limited (ASX: TKM) (“Trek” or “the Company”) is pleased to provide an update on the
Option & Acquisition Agreement (“Option & Acquisition Agreement”) entered into in September 2024
with US-based Advanced Energy Fuels, Inc. (“AEFI”) over Trek’s Hendeka-South Woodie Woodie
Manganese Project in the Pilbara region of Western Australia.
AEFI has entered into a definitive share exchange agreement that will see it complete a reverse
takeover of Cavalry Capital Corp (TSXV: CVY.P), where it is expected that upon completion of the
Transaction, the combined entity will meet the listing requirements for a Tier 2 Mining Issuer under
the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"). It is also proposed that upon completion, Trek
CEO Derek Marshall will join Cavalry Capital Corp as a Non-Executive Director.
Full details of the Option & Acquisition Agreement were provided in Trek’s ASX Release dated 10
September 2024.
Trek’s CEO Derek Marshall said: “AEFI’s proposed reverse takeover of Cavalry represents a positive
outcome for Trek and the proposed divestment of the Hendeka Project. AEFI’s completion of a share
market listing was a key requirement under the Option & Acquisition Agreement signed last year, and
we are pleased at how quickly they have moved forward with seeking a TSXV listing.
“We look forward to AEFI’s completion of the share exchange agreement and their listing on the TSXV,
which will enable them to exercise their option to acquire the Hendeka-South Woodie Woodie Project.
This divestment will deliver strong value creation for Trek without consuming significant management
time and represents an outstanding outcome for shareholders.
“Following Trek’s recent successful $3.5m capital raising, this divestment allows Trek to maintain our
focus on our flagship Christmas Creek Project in Western Australia, where we have a major gold drilling
program underway.”
