Nordic Mining disclosed in the interim report for the quarter ended 31 December 2020 that one of the appellants to the operating license for Engebø, Artic Mineral Resources (AMR), had served a notice to Nordic Rutile stating its intention to initiate legal proceedings. Nordic Rutile has tonight received a summons from AMR. AMR's claim is contrary to the Directorate of Mining's decision and contrary to the Minerals Act, and is rejected by Nordic Mining in its entirety.

Nordic Mining is awaiting the final confirmation from the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Fisheries, and is confident that the operating license for the Engebø project will be retained as granted in June 2020.
