LIM finalises joint venture agreement with Tata to develop Howse deposit
$30 million cash injection into LIM

Anglesey's 15% owned associate Labrador Iron Mines Holdings Limited (LIM) has
today announced that the previously announced joint venture agreement with Tata
Steel Minerals Canada Ltd. ("TSMC") for the exploration and development of
LIM's Howse iron ore deposit in the Schefferville region of the Labrador Trough
has been finalised.

The Howse Deposit is located in Labrador about 25 kilometres north of LIM's
currently producing James Mine and Silver Yards processing facility and
adjacent to TSMC's Timmins Area mines and new processing plant. The Howse
Deposit has a historical resource of 28 million tonnes at a grade of 58% Fe
(natural basis).

Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, TSMC and LIM have agreed to
form an unincorporated joint venture pursuant to which Howse Minerals Limited,
a wholly owned subsidiary of TSMC has acquired an initial 51% participating
interest in the Howse Property for a total cash consideration of $30 million.
"Completion of the Howse joint venture agreement with TSMC is an important step
forward for LIM and will significantly fast track the development timeline for
this new mine" commented John Kearney, LIM's Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer. "We are very pleased to be co-operating with Tata Steel, one of the
world's major steel companies, in this venture and we look forward to working
with TSMC to advance the Howse project into production."

Co-operation Arrangements

As part of the strategic relationship between LIM and TSMC that was announced
on March 12, 2013, the two companies have been co-operating with each other in
various aspects of their respective iron ore operations in the Labrador Trough.
The strategic relationship includes multi-part co-operation agreements in areas
of logistics, property rationalisation and various ancillary mutual support and
potential off-take arrangements.

As part of the logistics agreements, the companies have formalised arrangements
for construction of the new rail line that will extend LIM's current rail line
from Silver Yards to TSMC's new Timmins Area processing plant and thus connect
both companies to the TSH main rail line.

The construction of the rail line between TSMC's Timmins Area processing plant
to LIM's Silver Yard is already underway. Pending the construction of the new
rail line to the Timmins Area plant, TSMC is loading iron ore trains at LIM's
Silver Yards rail facility and the two companies are sharing iron ore rail cars
and rail locomotives.
