JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – UK-based mining investment firm Cadence Minerals is in negotiations to sell its interest in Aim- and TSX-V-listed lithium developer Bacanora Minerals, the company announced on Monday.

Cadence said that during the course of discussions with institutional investors about the potential sale of its 16.06% interest in Bacanora, a single strategic investor group had taken an interest in buying a “material portion” of its stake in that company.

Cadence added that discussions had been positive and that it hoped to complete a partial sale over the coming weeks.

Bacanora is developing the Sonora lithium project, in Mexico, and also owns a borate project in that country.  In Germany, Bacanora has a 50% interest in the Zinnwald lithium project.
