CoTec Holdings (TSXV:CTH)(OTCQX:CTHCF) reports that its investee MagIron LLC, in which it holds about 17% on a fully diluted basis, has completed a positive pig iron concept and economic study for its Minnesota iron ore and Indiana pelletizing facilities, prepared by Primetals Technologies.
The Study outlines three technically credible pathways to produce roughly 2 million tonnes per year of granulated pig iron, alongside DR-grade pellet output, leveraging existing infrastructure with an aggregate replacement value of about US$1.3 billion. MagIron indicates intent to advance domestic pig iron production, subject to further technical and feasibility work.
CoTec Holdings (TSXV:CTH, OTCQX:CTHCF) reports that MagIron, a U.S. company in which it holds an approximately 17% fully diluted equity stake, has implemented senior leadership changes and completed an additional insider capital raise at a US$550 million pre-money valuation.
Joe Nielsen has been appointed Chief Operating Officer of MagIron to lead operational and technical workstreams for the planned restart of its Minnesota iron ore concentrator and Indiana pellet plant. Larry Lehtinen has moved from Chief Executive Officer to Executive Director, while CoTec CEO Julian Treger has assumed the role of Executive Chairman of MagIron and continues to lead its board and strategy. MagIron stated that new capital from existing shareholders will fund ongoing technical, engineering, commercial and financing activities to support the restart of its facilities.
CoTec Holdings (TSXV:CTH, OTCQX:CTHCF) reported metallurgical test work for the Lac Jeannine Mine Tailings Reclamation and Restoration Project in Québec confirming production of a high‑purity iron concentrate grading in excess of 67% FeT, low in silica, alumina and other deleterious elements. This exceeds the 67% iron threshold for classification as high‑purity iron under Québec’s critical and strategic minerals framework and aligns with Canada’s updated Critical Minerals List.
The new results build on the 2026 Project PEA, which indicated a concentrate grade of about 66.8% Fe, an after‑tax NPV of US$91.9 million, and an IRR of 29.6% over a 15‑year mine life. The 67% FeT outcome, generated from bulk samples tested at Corem and engineering work by BBA, forms part of an ongoing NI 43‑101 Feasibility Study. Environmental baseline studies and engagement with Indigenous communities and government stakeholders are progressing as CoTec advances reprocessing of the Lac Jeannine tailings and rehabilitation of Québec’s largest abandoned mine site under government responsibility.
CoTec Holdings (TSXV:CTH, OTCQX:CTHCF) has engaged Epstein Research to provide investor relations services, subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange.
