Legend International Holdings Inc. Announces It Now Holds 100% of D-Tree

posted on Sep 29, 2009 04:40AM

MELBOURNE, Australia--Legend International Holdings, Inc (OTCBB: LGDI.OB) with phosphate projects in the State of Queensland, today announced that it holds 100% of the D-Tree phosphate project following Mt Isa Metals Ltd’s (“MET”) exit from the joint venture.

Legend, as manager of the D-Tree Joint Venture, had invoiced MET $1.739 million for MET’s 20% interest in the D-Tree project for the period September 1, 2008 to June 30, 2009. MET has decided to dilute rather than pay the invoices and in accordance with the Joint Venture agreement, MET’s interest has reduced to less than 5%, thus requiring MET to exit the Joint Venture. MET retains a royalty of A$0.50 per tonne from product from the D-Tree Joint Venture tenements.
