London Mining Join Hands

London Mining is an expanding producer of high specification iron ore for the global steel industry and  is  focused  on  identifying,  developing   and operating sustainable mines. London Mining commenced sales from the Marampa mine in Sierra Leone in 2012 and expects   to  reach   production capacity of 5Mtpa in 2013. A prefeasibility study was completed in 2011 which shows that Marampa has resources to support a  staged   expansion   to  over 16Mtpa. London Mining has also completed bankable feasibility studies outlining plans for a further 20Mtpa of iron ore production by developing two other mines in Greenland and Saudi Arabia. In   addition   London   Mining is producing from a coke  operation  with  coking  coal  resource  potential in Colombia. The Company listed on London AIM on 6 November 2009.

Wits Basin owns the Bates-Hunter Gold Mine in Central City, Colorado. Discovery of gold at the Bates-Hunter Mine in 1859 kicked off the Colorado gold rush and established Denver as a major American city. All mines in the area went dormant in 1936. This mining district has historically produced more than 4 million ounces of gold. Twenty-five percent (25%) of all the gold mined came from the area immediately surrounding the Bates-Hunter mine. Wits Basin’s property controls the 15 principal veins underlying the mine

London Mining is pleased to announce that it has signed a letter of intent with Wits Basin Precious Minerals, Inc. (“Wits Basin”) which may result in London Mining becoming a 50/50 joint venture partner for Wits Basin‘s iron ore project in Ma Anshan in the People’s Republic of China. The potential transaction remains subject to due diligence and finalisation of definitive legal documents.

Flooding can come from various sources, from coastal waters, from rivers (also known as fluvial flooding) and surface water flooding. O f all these sources London is most vulnerable to surface water flooding. Heavy rainfall can swiftly overwhelm the drainage network, leading to flooding of low-lying areas.

 LONDON MINING SIGN A NEW LONG TERM OFF - TAKE AGREEMENT

London Mining Plc is pleased to announce that it has signed a long term off-take agreement for 4 million tonnes of iron ore per annum with Suns Trading Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Suns International Holdings Ltd.

London Mining has signed a long term iron ore purchasing agreement with Suns Trading Ltd. whereby Suns will purchase on a "take or pay" basis the Company's available production exports up to a committed quantity of 4 million tonnes per year. The contract pricing is based on CVRD benchmark prices and an additional marketing fee will be payable for managing the ongoing commercial and supply arrangements with steel mills in China directly on behalf of London Mining. Suns and its end-users have expressed demands of more than 4mtpa which will be at the Company's discretion.  Suns Trading currently manages iron ore buying for over 12 steel mills in China and supplies approximately 15m tonnes of iron ore lump and fines per year to mills in various provinces in southern and northern China.

Suns Chairman, Wilson Chen said: "We are very happy to have agreed this important purchasing contract with London Mining.  We have high and rapidly growing demand for this essential commodity amongst our steel mill clients and the relationship with and supply from London Mining is important for meeting their expanding needs for high quality iron ore in the future."

Graeme Hossie, Corporate Development and Deputy Managing Director for London Mining said: "This deal gives London Mining multiple customers in China providing a diversified purchasing base so as not to be reliant on one steel group. It also provides capable and seasoned commercial management of the end user relationships allowing London Mining to focus on expanding production in its mines worldwide.  As Suns is a Hong Kong based group long established in international business and supplying Chinese companies, the relationship resolves cultural, language and bureaucratic issues for London Mining in supplying Chinese customers and extends London Mining's customer reach and relationships within China."
