Cadence Minerals Plc

("Cadence Minerals", "Cadence" or "the Company")

European Metals (AIM: EMH) Partnership Agreement With European Body.

Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note the update today from European Metals Holdings Limited ("European Metals" "EMH" or "the Company") that a "Value Added Services Agreement" with KIC InnoEnergy SE ("EIT InnoEnergy"), the principal facilitator and organiser of the European Battery Alliance, has been entered into today by Geomet s.r.o. in respect of the Cinovec Lithium Project in the Czech Republic ("Cinovec" or the "Project").

The Project, a joint venture between European Metals and CEZ, has been recently funded to the amount of approximately EUR 29m, taking the Project through to construction decision and the purpose of the financing agreement with EIT InnoEnergy (the Agreement) is to support the construction financing and ultimate commercialisation of Cinovec, the largest hard rock Lithium deposit in Europe, by EIT InnoEnergy providing assistance to EMH to support the:

o  Sourcing construction finance;

o  Securing grant funding; and

o  Assisting in offtake introductions and negotiations.

EIT InnoEnergy leads the the European Battery Alliance which was initated by the European Commision in 2017 to create a competetive and sustainable battery cell manufacturing value chain in Europe.

Last week the EU approved the Green Stimulus Plan, agreeing to invest more than 500 billion euros into a climate change plan including electric vehicles and renewable energy.

Based on Cinovec's economics, long mine life and proximity to the key manufacturing centers in Europe leading the EV development, the Project is well positioned to work with EIT InnoEnergy and other European organisations to ensure timely development to assist in meeting the expected significant increase in this demand.

European Metals Managing Director Keith Coughlan said; "European Metals and its development partner, CEZ, look forward to receiving support from EIT InnoEnergy and working together closely with their industrial and financial partners to deliver production at Cinovec, and contribute to a sustainable supply chain for a world leading centre for EV development and manufacture in Europe."

"Cinovec is the largest hard rock lithium resource in Europe and is strategically located to produce lithium in Europe for Europe.  The requirement for locally sourced raw materials for the e-mobility movement has become more apparent during COVID-19, and Cinovec is well positioned in close proximity to Europe's manufactures. Over the coming months we look forward to commencing the DFS work programmes, and subsequent permitting and construction of Cinovec."

Diego Pavia, CEO, EIT InnoEnergy commented, "The clear mandate of the EBA250 and EIT InnoEnergy is to secure raw materials, technological development and industrial production of modern energy technologies in Europe, for Europe to be largely self-supporting in these critical sectors. Lithium is central to this as the single most critical metal required for almost all energy storage technologies - as the lightest metal and with the highest charge density to mass ratio, it cannot be replaced."

"We see Cinovec as critical to the development of Europe's energy storage industry - it is the largest hard-rock lithium resource in Europe and the fourth largest globally, as such representing a strategic and accessible source of supply of a raw material critical to meeting the EU's climate goals of electrification of mobility and large-scale development of renewable energy storage. We very much look forward to supporting the development of Cinovec and full integration of this project into the European battery value chain, with local, ethical, traceable and sustainable production of lithium."
