NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF DANNEMORA MINERAL

The Board of Dannemora Mineral is convening an extraordinary general meeting on 17 March 2010 to consider a proposal to grant the Board a mandate to issue up to 4,000,000 class B shares, with or without preferential rights for present shareholders.

The proposed share issue would allow the Company to bring forward certain time-critical investments - in particular transport ramps and mine exploration. These investments will ensure the mine is ready for a production start-up 12 months after total financing is in place.

The reason for the option to derogate from preferential rights for shareholders (private placement) is to give the Board flexibility to exploit the keen interest new investor groups are showing in investing capital in iron-ore mining companies such as Dannemora Mineral.

Staffan Bennerdt CEO and President of Dannemora Mineral:

"The strong market for iron ore products since summer 2009 has triggered major interest in Dannemora's products from steel companies. Salzgitter AG and Voestalpine AG have already signed trial delivery agreements with Dannemora, and negotiations are in progress with a number of other players for further trial deliveries in spring 2010.

Dannemora believes that sufficient long-term supply agreements will be signed in spring and summer to secure the necessary bank financing of the project."

The Dannemora iron ore mine will achieve annual production of 1.5 million tonnes of iron ore products at full capacity.
