Labrador Iron Mines Holdings Limited ("LIM") has appointed Richard Pinkerton as
Chief Financial Officer.

Mr. Pinkerton is a Chartered Accountant and has been Vice President Finance of

holds the Chartered Financial Analyst designation. Prior to joining LIM,
Richard was an investment banker for ten years and prior thereto, he was a
Chartered Accountant at PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for five years.

LIM also announces that Danesh K. Varma, who has served as Chief Financial
Officer of LIM since its Initial Public Offering in 2007, has been appointed as
a Director to fill the vacancy arising from the retirement of Terence McKillen
as Executive Vice President and Director.

In recognising Mr. McKillen's contribution to LIM, John Kearney, LIM's Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer, stated: "Terence McKillen was one of three
founding directors of Labrador Iron Mines and was intimately involved in the
evaluation and acquisition of the properties that today comprise LIM's
Schefferville area iron ore deposits where his expertise in exploration
geology, together with his leadership in aboriginal and community relations
greatly contributed to the successful start-up of the Company."
