Megado Minerals, an Australian mining company, has unveiled plans for a significant acquisition in northern Spain, aiming to acquire an 80% stake in the Iberian Copper Project. Covering 956 square kilometers, this expansive project includes 12 permits and houses at least 12 historic copper mines.

The acquisition will proceed through a share swap agreement with Iberian Copper (ICPL) shareholders. In return for their stake, Megado will issue 175 million shares, 175 million Class A performance rights, and 175 million Class B performance rights. These performance rights are convertible into shares on a one-to-one basis, pending the achievement of key project-related milestones.

Megado directors Anthony Hall and Aaron Bertolatti are non-controlling shareholders of ICPL, which may raise potential conflicts of interest; however, both directors are expected to recuse themselves from decisions directly affecting the acquisition.

To finance the acquisition, Megado will initiate a non-renounceable rights issue, offering one share for every two shares held at A$0.012 per share. This rights issue could potentially raise A$1.53 million to support the acquisition and future developments.

The deal marks a significant expansion for Megado in the copper sector, presenting strong growth potential if project milestones are met and as global copper demand continues to rise.
