Episode Overview

## Episode highlights - **Agbaja disposal (Nigeria):** why the non-core divestment was meaningful for Macro Metals, including the role of sale proceeds in strengthening working capital. - **Non-dilutive growth strategy:** how Macro aims to advance its West Australian asset base and mining services division without continually diluting shareholders. - **Mining services + mine development:** Macro’s evolution from exploration to a diversified model—winning contracts, then funding development organically. - **Partnership model:** entering arrangements (e.g. right-to-mine/profit share or joint venture structures) to reduce exploration risk for the company. - **Yandi South (WA iron ore) update:** the CID resource characteristics, low phos qualities, and why the tenure’s limited exploration improves upside. - **Planned next steps:** mapping, sampling, drilling target definition, and updating the resource to contemporary JORC compliance.

## What to listen for - The thinking behind the **Agbaja divestment** and how it ties into Macro’s broader portfolio focus. - How **mining services revenue** can act as a funding engine for development. - The **near-border exploration opportunity** at Yandi South given adjacent Pilbara operations.

## Company snapshot **Macro Metals (M4M.ASX)** is positioning as an Australian **iron ore-focused** mining and mining services business, with a portfolio centred on Western Australia’s **Pilbara** region.
