Argex Titanium TSX RGX Joint Venture Vietnam Facility News

Argex Titanium, Inc. (TSX: RGX) is the developer of a proprietary process to produce TiO2 in a more affordable and eco-friendly manner than traditional methods. Shares jumped 16% through early trading on Tuesday, November 27, 2018. Over the past three months, Argex has seen an average daily volume of 473,414 shares. However, through Tuesday morning, already 1.87 million shares have traded hands, equating to C$75,000 in dollar volume.

Shares surged Tuesday morning after Argex Titanium, Inc. announced the formal signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for the creation of a Joint Venture with Hung Thinh Minerals Investment Co. Ltd., a major mine operator located in Vietnam. The Joint Venture will construct a TiO2 pigment grade facility with an initial capacity of 100,000 tonnes per annum but can be expanded to 300,000 tonnes per annum. The ore used in the facility will come from existing mines, which have an ilmenite reserve of 60 million tonnes. The projected $200 million cost of the facility will be financed by Hung Thinh Minerals Investment Co. Ltd. and will be utilizing Argex’s proprietary process technology. Construction is set to begin in early 2019.

Argex Titanium, Inc. Press Release:

MONTREAL, QC / ACCESSWIRE / November 27, 2018 / Argex Titanium Inc. (RGX.TO) (“Argex”) is thrilled to announce that its chain of events necessary to change the TiO2 industry has now formally started by executing a significant agreement which will insure its future success and provide substantial benefit to its shareholders.

We are announcing the formal signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with a major mine operator in Vietnam, Hung Thinh Minerals Investment Co. Ltd., for the creation of a Joint Venture in Vietnam. The Joint Venture which is expected to be non-dilutive to Argex shareholders will construct a TiO2 pigment grade facility with initial capacity of 100,000 tonnes per annum, expandable to 300,000 tonnes per annum. The facility will use ore from existing mines which have an ilmenite reserve of more than 60 million tonnes. The project, expected to require investment in excess of 200 million US dollars, will be financed by our Vietnamese partner using Argex proprietary process technology. Products from the plant will be marketed to local users in SE Asia and world-wide whose aggressive growth is predicted to continue for many years. The project will also create employment in Vietnam, generate infrastructure needed for further development of assets in the country, and provide substantial economic benefits for the developing nation. Joint Venture Agreements will be completed in the next sixty (60) days and engineering work on the Vietnamese plant will commence early in 2019.

Argex is also in discussions with other counterparties to develop similar JVs in different countries. We will be sharing hopefully soon any new developments on all fronts.

“This agreement which is the culmination of years of work for Argex provides a sound base for our economic and technical future. It is rewarding that the confidence placed in Argex by major players in the TiO2 user industry has fulfilled our ambition for the company. The MOU with Hung Thinh indicates that confidence in the Argex technology will bring many licensing opportunities beyond this Joint Venture. My belief is that after a long period of intensive work by our staff, the opportunities for commercial benefit are being realized and our strategy is proving to be sound and viable for a long-term future in the TiO2 markets,” said Mazen Al Naimi, Chairman and CEO.

“We look forward to the potential of this opportunity with Argex as a partner in developing a commercial TiO2 facility in Vietnam. It will allow us to pursue market opportunities in the Asian region and grow the company and its profitability. The Argex technology will provide us with a novel process which is environmentally friendly and cost effective. This partnership will benefit the economy of Vietnam and our company and we anticipate successful conclusion of this important project,” said Mr. Phan Tranh Moun, Chairman of Hung Thinh.
