LIM signs rail service agreement with Genesee & Wyoming

Anglesey Mining's 33% owned associate Labrador Iron Mines Holdings Limited
(TSX:LIM) is pleased to announce that it has signed a rail services agreement
with Western Labrador Rail Services ( WLRS ), a wholly owned subsidiary of
Genesee & Wyoming Inc. (GWI) for WLRS to operate LIM's newly constructed six
kilometer railway which connects LIM's Silver Yards processing facility in
western Labrador to the main Schefferville to Emeril Junction rail line.

WLRS will also provide, operate and maintain up to five SD 40-3 locomotives
which will be used to haul LIM's iron ore from Silver Yards, over the TSH
privately owned railway, to Emeril Junction.

The iron ore will then travel over the Quebec North Shore & Labrador Railway
(QNS&L) to port facilities in Sept-Iles on the St. Lawrence River for export to
the seaborne iron ore market. Operations are expected to commence in May 2011.

WLRS is part of GWI's Canada Region and provides rail service to mining
companies operating in Labrador and the Quebec North Shore, including the
operation of the Bloom Lake railway in western Labrador, which carries iron ore
from Cliffs Resources, (Consolidated Thompson) Bloom Lake Mine.

Labrador Iron Mines Holdings Limited (LIM)

LIM's Schefferville Area projects involve the development of twenty direct
shipping iron ore deposits in western Labrador and north-eastern Quebec near
Schefferville, Quebec. The Company's properties are part of the historic
Schefferville area iron ore district where mining of adjacent deposits was
previously carried out by the Iron Ore Company of Canada from 1954 to 1982.

LIM contemplates developing its Schefferville Area projects in stages. The
first phase of Stage 1 comprises the James Deposit where mining has already
commenced. Approximately 500,000 tonnes of material has now been moved from the
James North and James South mines. About 100,000 tonnes of ore has been mined
up to April 22, 2011 and a stockpile of over 50,000 tonnes of iron ore has been
built up ahead of the crusher. Construction of the Silver Yards processing
plant has been completed and it is expected that, following commissioning, the
first ore will be fed to the plant in May.
