NOTE TO U.S. READERS

Reserve and Resource Estimates

In accordance with applicable Canadian securities regulatory requirements, all mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates of the Company disclosed or incorporated by reference in this AIF have been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101, classified in accordance with the CIM Guidelines. The definitions of mineral reserves and mineral resources are set out in our disclosure of our mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates that are disclosed or incorporated by reference in this AIF.

The Company uses the terms “mineral resources”, “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources”. While those terms are recognized by Canadian securities regulatory authorities, they are not recognized by the SEC and the SEC does not permit U.S. companies to disclose resources in their filings with the SEC.

Pursuant to the CIM Guidelines, mineral resources have a higher degree of uncertainty than mineral reserves as to their existence as well as their economic and legal feasibility. Inferred mineral resources, when compared with measured or indicated mineral resources, have the least certainty as to their existence, and it cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will be upgraded to an indicated or measured mineral resource as a result of continued exploration. Pursuant to National Instrument 43-101, inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of any economic analysis, including any feasibility study. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of a mineral resource exists, will ever be converted into a mineral reserve, or is or will ever be economically or legally mineable or recovered.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain of the statements made and information contained herein is “forward-looking information” within the meaning of the Ontario Securities Act or “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 of the United States. Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, risks and uncertainties relating to foreign currency fluctuations; risks inherent in mining including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected geological formations, ground control problems and flooding; risks associated with the estimation of mineral resources and reserves and the geology, grade and continuity of mineral deposits; the possibility that future exploration, development or mining results will not be consistent with the Company’s expectations; the potential for and effects of labour disputes or other unanticipated difficulties with or shortages of labour or interruptions in production; actual ore mined varying from estimates of grade, tonnage, dilution and metallurgical and other characteristics; the inherent uncertainty of production and cost estimates and the potential for unexpected costs and expenses, commodity price fluctuations; uncertain political and economic environments; changes in laws or policies, foreign taxation, delays or the inability to obtain necessary governmental permits; and other risks and uncertainties, including those described under Risk Factors Relating to the Company’s Business in the Company’s Annual Information Form and in each management discussion and analysis. Forward-looking information is in addition based on various assumptions including, without limitation, the expectations and beliefs of management, the assumed long term price of copper, lead, nickel and zinc; that the Company can access financing, appropriate equipment and sufficient labour and that the political environment where the Company operates will continue to support the development and operation of mining projects. Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in forward-looking statements. Accordingly, readers are advised not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

In addition, Lundin Mining holds a development project pipeline which includes expansion projects at its Zinkgruvan and Neves-Corvo mines along with its equity stake in the world class Tenke Fungurume copper/cobalt mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

3.1.

Three Year History

2007

  a)

In January, the Company announced a three-for-one split of its common shares to be effected on February 8, 2007 to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 5, 2007.

     
  b)

On April 4, the Company announced an all-cash offer to acquire all of the outstanding common shares and warrants of Rio Narcea for C$5.00 per share and C$1.04 per warrant. On June 29, 2007, the offer was amended to increase the offer price for the common shares to C$5.50 for each share, The Company acquired control in July, taking up over 85% of the outstanding shares and in October acquired 100% of the shares through compulsory acquisition. The total of the cash consideration amounted to $918 million.

     
  c)

On April 11, the Company announced a business combination with Tenke Mining, whereby each common share of Tenke Mining would be exchanged for 1.73 Lundin Mining common shares plus C$0.001. The transaction was completed on July 3, 2007. The total value of the share and cash consideration amounted to $1.3 billion.

     
  d)

In June, the Company entered into an agreement with Silverstone (now Silver Wheaton) to deliver its silver production from the Neves-Corvo and Aljustrel mines to Silverstone. The transaction was completed on October 1, and the Company received an up-front cash payment from Silverstone of $42.5 million, together with 19,656,250 Silverstone common shares for total consideration of $89.1 million. Under the agreement, the Company receives cash payments upon delivery of silver in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) $3.90 per ounce of silver (subject to a 1% annual inflationary adjustment after three years and yearly thereafter) and (b) the then prevailing market price per ounce of silver.

     
  e)

On August 3, the Company completed the sale of the Tasiast gold mine to Red Back Mining Inc. (“Red Back”). Red Back paid $225 million in cash for the Tasiast project. Red Back also paid out an additional $52.9 million to retire debt related to the Tasiast project and unwind existing hedge contracts. Lundin Mining had acquired the Tasiast gold mine, located in Mauritania, through the acquisition of Rio Narcea.

     
  f)

In October the Company announced expansion plans to quadruple zinc production at Neves-Corvo and commence copper production at Zinkgruvan.

     
 

Lombador Zinc Expansion: Zinc production from the Lombador massive sulphide zone at the Neves- Corvo mine, planned to start in 2013, has the potential to add at least 1.0 mtpa of zinc ore production. Funds were approved to commence a pre-feasibility study. Work was temporarily suspended on the pre-feasibility in late 2008 but was recommenced and continued during 2009.

     
 

Zinkgruvan Copper Expansion: The project includes the introduction of copper production in parallel with the existing zinc-lead production. First production of copper in concentrate is expected in late 2010. At full capacity, the annual copper production is intended to be approximately 7,200 tonnes contained in concentrate for at least 12 years. The plan includes a resource definition drilling program, construction of a ramp from surface to the 350m level, a dedicated underground ore bin and crusher infrastructure system for copper ore and a copper processing line in the mill. The capital expenditure for the project is expected to be SEK280 million.


Annual Information Form Page 3


     
  g)

In December, the first zinc concentrates were produced from the restart of the Aljustrel mine. The mine had previously been on a care and maintenance program for fourteen years. The development plan anticipated annual production of 80,000 tonnes of contained zinc, 17,000 tonnes of contained lead and 1.25 million Oz of silver.

2008

  a)

In January, the Company announced that a misinterpretation of applicable tax legislation relating to certain tax rate reductions in Portugal would require the Company to restate and re-file its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, primarily to reflect amendments to the original allocation of the purchase price for the acquisition of EuroZinc Mining Corporation.

     
 

The Company also restated and re-filed its financial statements for each of the interim periods in 2007 to reflect changes primarily relating to the tax rate.

     
  b)

In February, the Company received notice that the Ministry of Mines, GDRC, was commencing discussions regarding TFM’s mining contract and the relationship with Gécamines, the DRC state-owned mining company, which holds a 17.5% carried interest in TFM. FCX, who is the operator in accordance with the project's agreements and who holds a 57.75% interest in the project, is leading the discussions on behalf of TFM.

     
  c)

In April, FCX advised the Company of a capital cost increase on the Tenke Fungurume Project to approximately $1.75 billion from the previous estimates of $900 million. The increase included: provision for expanded housing and support facilities for the project work force; enhancements to national roads and bridges; extended social and training initiatives as well as substantial industry-wide escalation in construction costs and the incremental costs to develop the project in Central Africa, where infrastructure and logistics are challenging. The Company contributed $264.1 million to the project during 2008. As of December 2008, on behalf of the Company, Freeport began sole funding the balance of costs to complete construction of Phase I production facilities as part of a budget overrun protection commitment in the underlying FCX/Lundin Mining shareholder’s agreement.

     
  d)

In May, the Company announced the expansion of the copper plant at the Neves-Corvo mine through the construction of an additional circuit within the existing copper plant to recover copper and zinc that had been previously lost to tailings. The project was expected to be completed in the second half of 2009 at a cost of €9.4 million ($13.2 million).

     
  e)

In July, the Company announced the discovery of a new zinc-copper zone at Neves-Corvo. Eight drill holes defined the deposit. All eight holes contained thick sections of massive sulphide zinc mineralization with four of the eight holes intercepting greater than 65m of >8% Zn, including wide intervals of >10%Zn.

     
  f)

In November, following a decline in metal prices, the Company announced that the Aljustrel mine would be placed back on care and maintenance and zinc production from Neves-Corvo would be suspended until zinc prices recover. In December, the Company entered into an agreement for the sale of Pirites Alentejanas, S.A. (Portugal), which was a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company, that owned the Aljustrel mine to MTO SGPS, SA. The sale was completed on February 5, 2009.

     
  g)

On November 21, 2008, the Company announced that it had entered into an Arrangement Agreement with HudBay to complete a business combination through a plan of arrangement under the


Annual Information Form Page 4


       
   

Canada Business Corporations Act. The Arrangement Agreement provided for each Lundin Mining common share to be exchanged for 0.3919 of a HudBay common share. In connection with the transaction, HudBay and Lundin Mining entered into a loan agreement providing for a loan to the Company by HudBay of C$135.8 million on a subordinated basis and a share purchase agreement under which HudBay would acquire approximately 97.0 million common shares of Lundin Mining at a price of C$1.40 per share in a private placement, the proceeds of which would be used to repay the loan. The loan agreement was not completed and no funds were advanced under the loan agreement.

       
    h)

In December, the Company announced the completion of the private placement transaction with HudBay that was announced in November in connection with the business combination. HudBay subscribed for 96,997,492 common shares (the “Subscription Shares”) of the Company, representing approximately 19.9% of the Company’s outstanding common shares after issuance, at a price of C$1.40 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately C$135.8 million ($111.4 million).

2009

    a)

In January, the Company announced that the Galmoy zinc/lead/silver mine in Ireland would permanently cease production in May 2009.

       
    b)

On February 23, the Company entered into an agreement with HudBay to terminate the Arrangement Agreement dated November 21, 2008 that provided for, among other things, a mutual release in respect of any and all rights in connection with or arising from the Arrangement Agreement.

       
    c)

In March, the Company announced the intention to voluntarily delist its common shares from the NYSE and at a future date, when permitted under SEC rules, to terminate its registration of its common shares with the SEC. The delisting of the Company's common shares from the NYSE did not affect the listing of the Company's common shares on the TSX or the Swedish Depository Receipts on the OMX.

       
    d)

In March, the first copper cathode was produced by the Tenke Fungurume mine in the DRC. Initial high– grade oxide ore facilities at the Tenke Fungurume mine have been designed to produce approximately 115,000 metric tonnes of copper cathode and 8,000 tonnes of cobalt per annum.

       
    e)

During April, the Company entered into multiple option collar arrangements to protect against near– term decreases in the price of copper. The contracts established a weighted average floor price of $1.87 per pound and a weighted average maximum price cap of $2.39 per pound. The contracts, due over 12 months ended April 2010, were for approximately 40,000 tonnes of copper. No cash premiums were paid or received under the net zero cost structures. Monthly cash settlements are made where necessary for the contracts. Subsequently, the Company extended the copper price protection for a further three months by entering into additional collars for the months of May, June and July 2010. The contracts, for 3,000 tonnes of copper per month, established a weighted average floor price of $1.89 per pound and a weighted average price cap of $2.89 per pound.

       
    f)

On April 27, 2009, the Company closed a bought–deal public offering for total gross proceeds of C$188.6 million ($155.8 million). The Company issued 92 million common shares of the Company at a price of C$2.05 per share.

       
    g)

On May 11, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with HudBay consenting to the sale by HudBay of all of its shares in the Company. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company and HudBay have terminated all continuing rights and obligations under the termination agreement dated February 23, 2009 and agreed to a mutual release in respect of any and all claims connected with or arising from the subscription agreement.

OPERATING MINES

   
4.4.1.1.

NEVES–CORVO MINE

   
4.4.1.1.1.

Project Description and Location

The Neves–Corvo mine, operated by the local Portuguese company Somincor, is situated approximately 220km southeast of Lisbon in the Alentejo district of southern Portugal. The mine site lies some 15km south east of the town of Castro Verde and exploits five major orebodies from an underground mine. The ore is processed on site and tailings are disposed in the Cerro de Lobo impoundment some 3km from the plant. Concentrates are dispatched by rail and road for onward shipping to customers.

The mining operations are contained within a Mining Concession Contract between the State and Somincor covering 13.5km2, located in the parishes of Santa Bárbara de Padrões and Senhora da Graça de Padrões, counties of Castro Verde and Almodôvar, district of Beja. The concession provides the rights to exploit the Neves–Corvo deposits for copper, zinc, lead, silver, gold, tin and cobalt for an initial period of fifty years (from 24 November 1994) with two further extensions of twenty years each.

This Mining Concession is in turn surrounded by an Exploration Concession, signed in 2006, covering an area of 549km2. The Exploration Concession has an initial period of 5 years, with a provision for 3 one–year extensions subject to a 50% reduction in area each time. Somincor currently controls exploration concessions totaling 2,179km2.

The mine is operated under an Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control Licence (IPPC) granted by the Portuguese Environmental Agency in 2008.

4.4.1.1.2.

Accessibility, Climate, Local Resource, Infrastructure and Physiography

Neves–Corvo has good connections to the national road network which links with Faro to the south and Lisbon to the north. The mine has a dedicated rail link into the Portuguese rail network and on to the port of Setúbal.

There are no major centres of population close to the mine, although a number of small villages with populations numbered in the hundreds do lie within the Mining Concession. Most employees travel to the mine by company– provided buses or private cars.

The climate of the region is semi–arid with an average July temperature of 23°C (maximum 40°C) and an average minimum temperature in winter of 3.8°C. Rainfall averages 426mm, falling mainly in the winter months.

The topography around the mine is relatively subdued, comprising low hills with minimal rock outcrop. The mine collar is 210m above sea level. The area supports low intensity agriculture confined to stock rearing and the production of cork and olives.

Fresh water is supplied to the mine via a 400mm diameter pipeline from the Santa Clara reservoir, approximately 40km west of the mine. The mine is connected to the national grid by a single 150kV, 50MVA rated, overhead power line 22.5km long.

The Mining Concession provides sufficient surface rights to accommodate the existing mine infrastructure and allow expansion if required.

4.4.1.1.3.

History

The Neves–Corvo orebodies were discovered in 1977. The Portuguese company Somincor was established to exploit the deposit and by 1983, the Corvo, Graça, Neves and Zambujal sulphide deposits had been partially outlined covering an area of some 1.5km x 2km. Rio Tinto became involved in the project in 1985 effectively forming a 49:51% joint venture with the Portuguese government (EDM). The project was reappraised with eventual first production commencing from the Upper Corvo and Graça orebodies in January 1989.

   
Annual Information Form

Page 9


During the development of the mine, high grade tin ores were discovered, associated with the copper mineralisation, which led to the rapid construction of a tin plant that was commissioned in 1990.

The railway link through to Setúbal was constructed between 1990–1992 to allow shipment of concentrates and the back–haul of sand for backfill. This was followed between 1992–1994 by a major mine deepening exercise to access the Lower Corvo orebody through the installation of an inclined conveyor ramp linking the 700 and 550 levels.

In June 2004, EuroZinc acquired a 100% interest in Somincor for consideration of €128 million. In October 2006, EuroZinc merged with Lundin Mining and the Lundin Mining name was retained.

In 2006, zinc production was commenced at Neves–Corvo with processing through the modified tin plant. In June 2007 Silverstone agreed to acquire 100% of the life–of–mine payable silver production from the mine, as the mine produces circa 0.5m Oz per year in the copper concentrate. Zinc production was suspended in November 2008 due to the low prevailing zinc price. In September 2009, the decision was made to expand the zinc plant at an estimated cost of €43m, to a design capacity of 50,000tpa with first production expected in 2011.

In mid–2009 a copper tailings retreatment circuit was commissioned to recover both copper and zinc.

4.4.1.1.4.

Geological Setting

Neves–Corvo is located in the western part of the Iberian Pyrite Belt which stretches through southern Spain into Portugal and which has historically hosted numerous major stratiform volcano–sedimentary massive sulphide deposits.

The Neves–Corvo deposits occur within the Volcanic Sedimentary Complex which consists of acid volcanics separated by shale units, with a discontinuous black shale horizon immediately below the lenses. Above the mineralisation, there is a thrust–faulted repetition of volcano–sedimentary and flysch units. The whole assemblage has been folded into a gentle anticline oriented NW–SE which plunges to the southeast, resulting in orebodies distributed on both limbs of the fold. All the deposits have been affected by both sub–vertical and low angle thrust faults, causing repetition in some areas

4.4.1.1.5.

Exploration

Exploration work within the Mining License has concentrated primarily on the extension of known orebodies by both underground and surface drilling. Some of the Neves–Corvo orebodies remain open. Drilling from both surface and underground in the last few years has identified significant new zinc and copper mineralisation within the Lombador massive sulphide lens and associated stockworks, as well as important bridge fissural copper mineralisation between the Lower Corvo, Neves and Lombador orebodies.

4.4.1.1.6.

Mineralisation

Five massive sulphide lenses have been defined at Neves–Corvo comprising Neves (divided into North and South), Corvo, Graça, Zambujal and Lombador (recently divided North, South and East). The base metal grades are segregated by the strong metal zoning into copper, tin and zinc zones, as well as barren massive pyrite.

4.4.1.1.7.

Drilling

Surface and underground exploration drilling is an on–going operation at the mine with the work undertaken by both contractors and in–house drill rigs. Typically, underground fan drilling will produce intersections on either 17.5 or 35m spacing, with surface drilling on a spacing of 75 to 100m. As a standard procedure, drill holes, which are all NQ size, are surveyed with an Eastman Single Shot or Reflex EZ–Shot tool at 30m intervals, which provides an accurate location of the drill intersections.

   
Annual Information Form

Page 10


In 2009, 42,600m of drilling was completed from surface and 15,900m from underground.

4.4.1.1.8.

Sampling and Analysis

Industry standard exploration drill core splitting, sampling and density measurement protocols and procedures are in place at Neves–Corvo. In addition to drill core sampling, underground grade control sampling is carried out using face sampling in the drift–and–fill mined areas and short diamond drill holes in the bench–and–fill areas. Samples are prepared on site and analysed at the mine’s fully accredited assay laboratory facility.

4.4.1.1.9.

Security of Samples

Data and sample security procedures that conform with industry standards are in place at Neves–Corvo. All drill core is logged and photographed, and the cores and sampling splits are stored on site. Traceability records prevent errors of identification and insure sample history can be followed.

4.4.1.1.10.

Mineral Resource and Reserve Estimates

Mineral resources at Neves–Corvo are estimated using three dimensional modelling methods and specialised software (Vulcan® 3D). The Ordinary Kriging method of interpolation is used to estimate metal grades and a multiple regression formula is used for the density.

Mineral reserves are developed by the mine planning department at Neves–Corvo. Stoping volumes are determined according to access, cut–off grade, planned and un–planned dilution and ore loss. An effective minimum mining width of 5m is applied. The reserve statement, produced annually, is based on Measured and Indicated resources only, and the principal tool used is Vulcan® 3D software.

Details of the December 2009 Resource and Reserve estimate for Neves Corvo are included in Schedule A attached to this AIF.

4.4.1.1.11.

Mining Operations

Neves–Corvo is a major underground mine. The mine access is provided by one vertical 5m diameter shaft, hoisting ore from the 700m level (mine datum is 1,000m below sea level), and a ramp from surface. A conveyor decline descends from the 700m level to the 550m level and provides ore hoisting from the deeper levels of the mine. The mine is highly mechanised and a number of different stoping methods are employed but the most prominent are bench–and–fill and drift–and–fill. Backfill is provided by hydraulically placed sand, paste tailings and internally generated waste rock.

Two processing plants are established at Neves–Corvo. The copper plant treats copper ores and has a maximum capacity of approximately 2.4mtpa and the zinc plant (the former tin plant) which treats zinc or copper ores with a current capacity of 0.5mtpa (note: zinc production was suspended in November 2008). Both processing plants comprise secondary crushing, rod and ball mill grinding circuits, flotation cells and concentrate thickening and dewatering. In mid–2009, modifications to the copper plant were completed to regrind and recover additional copper and zinc concentrate from the copper tailings stream. Concentrates are transported by road to a Spanish smelter or by rail to a dedicated port facility at Setúbal from where they are shipped to smelter customers. Tailings are stored sub–aqueously in the Cerro de Lobo tailings impoundment located 3km from the mine site. Approvals to convert the tailings disposal to a paste system have been received and installation of the facilities is currently underway.

   
Annual Information Form

Page 11


Copper ore production from the Neves–Corvo mine is forecast to continue at 2009 levels. Zinc production is expected to re–start in 2011 at the rate of 50,000tpa from an expanded zinc plant.

Copper and zinc concentrates from the mine are sold to a variety of smelter customers that are primarily European based. Multi–year sales contracts are normally agreed with customers and treatment, refining and penalty charges are typical of those for copper and zinc sulphide concentrates.

The mine operates under an IPPC licence (No. 18/2008) granted by the Portuguese Environmental Agency in 2008. The licence includes conditions covering Environmental Management Systems, tailings and waste rock disposal, water and energy consumption, emissions to atmosphere, emissions to water courses and water treatment, noise, industrial waste disposal, emergency and closure planning. Key environmental issues include the acid generating potential of the ore and waste rocks; the close proximity of the Oeiras river to the mine site; the groundwater is a significant aquifer and connects to local water supplies and the Oeiras river; and the dispersal of dust and noise from the mine site. The mine permit requires that closure plans for the mine are updated every 5 years, and an accumulating closure fund is in place to cover final closure costs.

The corporation tax rate in Portugal is 25%, and a local tax of 1.5% is also payable. Royalties are either a profit– related royalty of 10%, or a revenue–based royalty of 1% (at the State’s discretion). The payment may be reduced by 0.25% of the revenue–based royalty provided that the corresponding amount of such percentage is spent on mining development investment.

The current copper reserves at Neves–Corvo will support a mine life of around 10 years with copper production, based on currently known reserves, gradually decreasing, and planned zinc production increasing. Exploration efforts will continue to be focused on discovering new high grade copper resources. A pre–feasibility study on further increases in zinc production based on the large zinc resources contained within the Lombador orebody is underway. The mine is able to fund all currently planned capital programmes through cash flow.

4.4.1.1.12.

Exploration and Development

In 2010, over 31,000m of surface drilling are planned with 20,000 m of underground drilling targeting principally Lombador North and South, Neves North and South, Zambujal and Corvo orebodies.

Exploration drilling will also be conducted in the surrounding exploration license areas through the follow–up of geophysical anomalies.

ZINKGRUVAN MINE

   
4.4.1.2.1.

Project Description and Location

The Zinkgruvan mine is located approximately 200km west of Stockholm in south–central Sweden. The mine site is some 15km from the town of Askersund and comprises a deep underground mine, a processing plant and associated infrastructure and tailings disposal facilities. Concentrates are trucked from the mine to the inland port of Otterbäcken on Lake Vänern from where they are shipped via canal and sea to European smelter customers.

The mining operations are contained within two exploitation concessions covering the deposit and its immediate area. The “Zinkgruvan Concession” was amalgamated from a large number of smaller rights in 2000, has an area of 254ha and is valid until 2025. The neighboring “Klara Concession” was granted in 2002, has an area of 355ha and is valid until 2027. These concessions are automatically extendable for periods of 10 years provided the concession is being regularly exploited. In addition, the mine currently holds exploration concessions in the area totaling 10,096ha. For exploitation concessions granted before 2005 there are no mining royalties in Sweden.

The mine is currently operated under an Environmental Licence granted by the Swedish authorities that is valid until December 2017.

4.4.1.2.2.

Accessibility, Climate, Local Resource, Infrastructure and Physiography

Zinkgruvan has good local road access and is close to the main E18 highway linking Stockholm and Oslo. Rail and air links are available at the town of Örebro some 35km distant. Lake Vänern, the largest lake in Sweden, is some 50km distant and provides access to coastal shipping via a series of inland canals and the port of Göteborg.

The climate of the area is mild in the summer with average temperatures of 18°C, while in the winter temperatures are below freezing with a lowest average of –4°C in February. Annual rainfall is approximately 750mm with modest snowfalls during the winter months.

The topography around the mine comprises gently rolling terrain approximately 175m above sea level. The area is largely forested and is bisected by slow moving streams in shallow valleys.

There is ready access to power, telephone lines and domestic water and industrial water sources. The mine owns sufficient freehold surface land to accommodate the existing and planned mine infrastructure.

4.4.1.2.3.

History

The Zinkgruvan deposit has been known since the sixteenth century but it was not until 1857 that large scale production commenced under the ownership of the Belgian Vieille Montagne company. The processing plant for these operations was initially based in Åmmeberg on the shores of Lake Vättern with ore transported circa 5km from the mine site by narrow gauge railway.

In the mid–1970s, a decision was made to significantly expand production to 600,000tpa. A new shaft, P2, was sunk to access deeper ore and a new concentrator and tailings facility established adjacent to the mine site.

In 1990, Vieille Montagne merged with Union Miniere, and in 1995 North Limited of Australia acquired Union Miniere. In August 2000, Rio Tinto became the owner of the mine following its acquisition of North. In June 2004, Lundin Mining purchased the mine from Rio Tinto.

In December 2004 Silver Wheaton agreed to purchase the LOM silver production from the Zinkgruvan mine. In October 2007, the Zinkgruvan Expansion Programme was announced, a project that has plans to increase ore production by 300,000 tpa through the addition of copper to the current zinc–lead production.

   
Annual Information Form

Page 13



4.4.1.2.4.

Geological Setting

Zinkgruvan is located in the south–west corner of the Proterozoic aged Bergslagen greenstone belt. The district is composed of a series of small elongated basins with felsic metavolcanics overlain by metasediments. The basins are surrounded by mainly granitoid intrusions of which the oldest are the same age as the metavolanics.

The Zinkgruvan deposit is situated in a east–west striking synclinal structure. The tabular shaped Zn–Pb–Ag orebodies occur in a 5 to 25 m thick stratiform zone in the upper part of the metavolcanic–sedimentary group. The orebody is 5km long and is proven to a depth of 1,500m below surface. A major sub–vertical fault splits the ore deposit in two parts, the Knalla mine to the west and the Nygruvan to the east.

4.4.1.2.5.

Exploration

Exploration has focused primarily on replacing depleted resources initially by exploring the Nygruvan area at depth and more recently in the Knalla area to the west. Limited exploration by drilling takes place from surface and the majority is carried out from underground, where dedicated exploration drifts are developed for the purpose.

Recent drilling has been targeted at mineralisation to the west of the main mine area and is aimed at orebodies known as Mellanby, Cecilia and Dalby.

4.4.1.2.6.

Mineralisation

The Zinkgruvan ore bodies are dominated by sphalerite and galena and are generally massive, well banded and stratiform. Re–mobilisation of galena and silver has occurred in response to metamorphism and deformation, and is most pronounced in the lead–rich western extension of Nygruvan and in the Burkland area.

Copper stockwork mineralisation has been identified in the structural hangingwall of the Burkland deposit. Chalcopyrite is the main copper mineral and occurs as coarse disseminations and patches within a marble host rock.

4.4.1.2.7.

Drilling

Surface and underground exploration, resource and stope definition drilling is carried out on an on–going basis. Surface exploration holes can be up to 1,200m long, while stope definition holes are drilled from underground with intersections typically on 15 by 20m centres. All drill holes are surveyed at 3m intervals using Maxibore surveying equipment which provides an accurate location of the drill intersections. In 2009, 14,600m of drilling was completed from underground.

4.4.1.2.8.

Sampling and Analysis

Industry standard exploration drill core splitting, sampling and density measurement protocols and procedures are in place. Samples are prepared on site and sent to ACME’s laboratory in Vancouver, Canada for assay.

4.4.1.2.9.

Security of Samples

Data and sample security procedures that conform with industry standards are in place at Zinkgruvan. All drill core is logged and photographed, and the cores and sampling splits are stored on site in a new purpose built facility at the mine site. Traceability records prevent errors of identification and insure sample history can be followed.

4.4.1.2.10.

Mineral Resource and Reserve Estimates

Mineral resources at Zinkgruvan are estimated using two methods: the polygonal method and 3D block modelling. The polygonal method is generally used at the early stages of resource assessment and is carried out on parts of Nygruvan, Cecilia, Mellanby, Borta Bakom and Sävsjön. The remaining areas of Nygruvan and all of Burkland are estimated using block modelling with Microstation® AutoCad and Prorok® software. Ordiniary Kriging is used for grade estimation and density estimation uses a regression formula.

   
Annual Information Form

Page 14


Mineral reserves are developed from the resources using Prorok and Microstation® software. A NSR cut off is applied together with dilution and mining recovery factors that are based on the mine’s long operating experience.

Details of the 2009 Resource and Reserve estimate for Zinkgruvan are included in Schedule A attached to this AIF.

4.4.1.2.11. Mining Operations

Zinkgruvan is an underground mine with a long history. Mine access is currently via three shafts, with the principle P2 shaft providing hoisting and man access to the 900m level. A ramp connecting the underground workings with surface is being excavated and will provide flexible access to the mine. A system of ramps is employed to exploit resources below the shaft and the deepest mine level is now at 1,130m. The mine is highly mechanised and uses primary secondary panel stoping in the Burkland area of the mine and sublevel benching in the Nygruvan area. All stopes are backfilled with paste tailings and cement.

The processing plant is located adjacent to P2 shaft. The run-of-mine ore is secondary crushed and then ground in an AG and ball mill circuit. A bulk flotation concentrate is produced initially before further flotation to separate zinc and lead concentrates. The concentrates are thickened and filtered and then stockpiled under cover. Tailings are pumped some 4km to a dedicated tailings impoundment from which decant water is returned to the process.

A separate 0.3mtpa copper treatment line is currently being installed in the processing plant scheduled to produce its first copper concentrate by mid-2010.

Zinc-lead ore production from Zinkgruvan is expected to continue at 2009 levels while copper ore production is forecast to build up to 0.3mtpa by 2013. Current mineral reserves at Zinkgruvan are sufficient for a mine life in excess of 10 years and the mine is able to fund all currently planned capital programmes through cash flow.

Zinc and lead concentrates from the mine are sold to a variety of European smelters. Multi-year sales contracts are normally agreed with customers and treatment, refining and penalty charges are typical of those for zinc and lead sulphide concentrates. The lead concentrates are particularly high grade and contain elevated levels of silver.

The mine is currently operated under an Environmental Licence granted by the Swedish authorities that is valid until December 2017. The licence includes conditions covering production levels, tailings disposal, water discharge limits, hazardous materials, process chemicals, water recirculation, noise levels, dust pollution, waste handling, energy use and closure planning. The corporation tax rate in Sweden is 26.3% and Zinkgruvan does not pay mining royalties.

4.4.1.2.12. Exploration and Development

Exploration activities in 2010 focus on converting inferred resources to indicated resources. The planned drill programme for 2010 comprises 2,500m of underground drilling in the Nygruvan area.

Further information on Zingruvan mine can be obtained by referencing the following Technical Report filed on SEDAR:

AGUABLANCA MINE

   
4.4.1.3.1.

Project Description and Location

The Aguablanca mine is located approximately 100km north of Seville in the Extremadura region of southern Spain. The mine lies some 30km south of the town of Monesterio, and comprises an open pit mine, processing plant and associated waste and tailings management facilities. Concentrates from the mine are trucked to the port of Huelva for onward shipping to customers.

The mining rights for Aguablanca are covered under a Reserva Definitiva a Favor del Estado called La Moneguera which consists of 95 contiguous claims covering an area of 2,862 ha. The Reserva Definitiva is valid for 30 years from June 2003 and is extendable for a further 30 years. Mining royalties of 2% of Net Smelter Return are payable to the Spanish state.

The mine operates under environmental permits granted by the Spanish Government. These permits cover all aspects of the operations including tailings management and project closure and were obtained in June 2003.

4.4.1.3.2. Accessibility, Climate, Local Resource, Infrastructure and Physiography

Aguablanca has excellent road connections to the new N630 national highway which runs northwards from Seville and connects by a further national highway to the port of Huelva. The mine site lies approximately 10km east of this road and is adjacent to the village of El Real de la Jara. There is ready access to power, telephone lines and domestic water and industrial water sources.

There are no major population centres close to the mine, although a number of small villages with populations numbered in the hundreds do lie close to the mine. Most employees travel to the mine by private cars.

The climate of the region is Mediterranean with relatively mild winters and hot dry summers. The mine lies at an elevation of 450 to 500m above sea level in an area of low hills with moderate relief. Vegetation comprises trees and bushes forming classic Mediterranean forest, with local meadows comprising grass, oak and olive trees.

The mine owns sufficient freehold surface land to accommodate the existing and planned mine infrastructure.

4.4.1.3.3.  History

Exploration for nickel and copper mineralisation has been carried out in the Aguablanca area since the mid 1980s. The Aguablanca deposit was discovered in 1993/4 following stream sediment sampling and subsequent diamond drilling by a Presur (Spanish state)/Rio Tinto Minera joint venture. The Aguablanca project was acquired by Rio Narcea in mid-2001 from the then owner Presur/Atlantic Copper S.A.

Construction of the Aguablanca mine started in November 2003 with first commercial production commencing in January 2005 and the first shipment of concentrate in May of the same year. With the commencement of the open pit mine, a 2.7km long underground decline was developed to allow exploration of the mineralisation beneath the planned open pit.

The Aguablanca mine was acquired by Lundin Mining in July 2007 through its purchase of Rio Narcea.

4.4.1.3.4. Geological Setting

The area of the Aguablanca nickel-copper deposit is underlain by mafic and ultramafic rocks of the Aguablanca Stock (AS), which has intruded carbonate rocks of Hercynian age. The AS is a small gabbroic intrusion (approximately 2.3km2) located along the northern contact of the much larger Santa Olalla Pluton (SOP). The northern and southern limits of the SOP are marked by major fault zones. A well developed contact metamorphic aureole surrounds the AS and SOP exemplified by skarn mineralisation. Aguablanca represents a somewhat unique example of a magmatic sulphide breccia hosted by gabbro and gabbro-norites.

4.4.1.3.5. Exploration

Lundin Mining holds exploration rights over an area of 2,521km2, largely to the north and west of Aguablanca, known as the Ossa Morena. Additional exploration potential exists for nickel-copper and copper-gold mineralisation within this area.

4.4.1.3.6. Mineralization

There are two mineralized bodies at Aguablanca. The larger South or Main Zone is some 400m long on strike and dips steeply to the north. It has widths of up to 100m and a known depth of over 600m. The North Zone is also steeply dipping, 125m long, up to 50m thick and has a known depth of 300m.

Three main types of sulphide mineralisation have been recognised and are currently mined separately before blending from stockpiles.

4.4.1.3.7. Drilling

A total of approximately 3,400m of drilling was compelted in late 2009 – early 2010 in order to increase the data density between the 250 and the 350 mine levels. No other exploration drilling is planned for 2010.

In 2009, a total of 1,070m of infill drilling was completed from underground.

4.4.1.3.8. Sampling and Analysis

Grade control sampling is carried out using open hole percussion rigs drilling 8m deep holes on the open pit benches.

Samples are prepared on site and analysed at the mine’s assay laboratory facility. Repeat samples are sent to the OMAC laboratory in Ireland for analysis.

4.4.1.3.9. Security of Samples

Data and sample security procedures that conform with industry standards are in place at Aguablanca. All drill core has been labelled, logged and photographed, and the cores and sampling splits are all stored on site. A bar code tagging system is in place at the mine.

4.4.1.3.10. Mineral Resource and Reserve Estimates

Mineral resources at Aguablanca were estimated at 31 December 2008 by Juan Alvarez and Sia Khosrowshahi of Golder Associates Global Iberica, S.L.U., using three dimensional geological block modelling methods and specialised software (Vulcan® 3D). The Ordinary Kriging method of interpolation was used to estimate six metal grades (Ni, Cu, Pt, Pd, Co and Au) and the Inverse Distance Squared method was used for the density estimation.

In order to generate mineral reserves at Aguablanca an open pit optimisation was carried out by Juan Pablo Gonzalez of Golder Associates Global Iberica, S.L.U., using the specialised software Whittle® Four-X. Vulcan mine design software was then used to check the pit layout and to optimise the scheduling of the pit for maximum Net Present Value. The resultant pit is scheduled to produce until 2014 with an average strip ratio of 7:1.

Golder Associates Global Iberica, S.L.U. has updated the mineral resource and mineral reserve at 31 December 2009 by depleting the current model using the mined out surface at 31 December 2009 provided by Aguablanca. Details of the December 2009 Resource and Reserve estimate for Aguablanca are included in Schedule A attached to this AIF.

4.4.1.3.11. Mining Operations

The Aguablanca mine currently operates a single open pit mine. The pit is mined with 8m benches and the final slopes are designed with a double bench configuration. The open pit is operated by contractor using a conventional drill and blast, and truck and shovel fleet. Waste rock is stacked to the immediate northwest of the open pit and the waste dumps form the downstream wall of the tailings impoundment.

Run-of-mine ore is stockpiled, blended and then crushed. The crushed ore is conveyor fed to a conventional grinding and flotation circuit to produce a bulk nickel-copper concentrate. The concentrate is thickened and filtered to produce a filter cake suitable for onward transport. The concentrate is truck hauled approximately 125km to Huelva port from where it is shipped to customer smelter facilities. Tailings from the process plant are pumped to a fully lined tailings impoundment to the north of the plant site area. Decant water from the tailings dam is returned to the process plant.

Significant mineral resources remain below the bottom of the planned open pit. In 2010, further studies will be carried out on an underground operation producing in parallel with the open pit. Access to the underground mine would be via the existing exploration decline, stoping by longhole methods and operation by contractor.

All bulk nickel-copper concentrate produced from the Aguablanca operation is sold under a contract that expires in 2010. Principle payable metals are nickel and copper with by-product payments made platinum, palladium and cobalt, and the payment terms are typical of those for bulk nickel/copper sulphide concentrates.

The Aguablanca Mine operates under environmental permits granted by the Spanish Government. These permits include conditions covering environmental management systems, tailings and waste rock disposal, water and energy consumption, emissions to atmosphere, emissions to water courses and water treatment, noise, industrial waste disposal, emergency and closure planning. Key environmental issues include; the potential lack of water during drought periods; the dispersal of dust and noise from the mine site; and mine site rehabilitation.

The corporation tax rate in Spain is 30% and royalties of 2% of NSR apply.

4.4.1.3.12. Exploration and Development

Although exploration activities both at Aguablanca and regionally in the area were suspended as a result of the 2008/9 down turn in metal prices, additional underground drilling is warranted in order to expand the existing resources and test for high grade massive sulphide deposits. Studies will continue on further open pit optimisations in light of future metal price movements.

4.4.1.4.  GALMOY MINE

The Galmoy zinc-lead mine is located in south-central Ireland in County Kilkenny. The merger of the Company and ARCON International Resources p.l.c., the principal asset of which was the Galmoy mine, was completed in April 2005.

Galmoy is an underground mine with most of the workings between 100m and 160m below surface. The primary access is by a decline and mine production is carried out by room-and-pillar and by bench-and-fill methods. The Galmoy flowsheet employed a conventional SAG-ball mill grinding circuit with differential flotation for the production of lead and zinc concentrates. Tailings were placed in a fully lined, multi-phase impoundment at the mine site.

The Galmoy mine ceased production at the end of the second quarter 2009. The concentrator closure and rehabilitation is progressing as planned and the restricted cash closure fund accumulated during the mine life has been assessed as sufficient to meet the closure obligations.

In late 2009, following approval from the relevant Irish authorities, a test batch of 18,000 tonnes of high grade ore was mined and trucked to an adjacent mine for treatment. Negotiations with the adjacent mine for the mining and treatment of additional larger quantities of high grade ore are currently underway with an expectation that further deliveries will be made in 2010 and 2011.

Details of the December 2009 Resource and Reserve estimate for Galmoy are included in Schedule A attached to this AIF.

4.4.1.5. TENKE FUNGURUME MINE (24.75% EQUITY INTEREST)
   
4.4.1.5.1. Property Description and Location

TFM’s copper-cobalt deposits comprise one of the world’s largest known copper-cobalt resources. The deposits are located on contiguous concessions which total 1,437 km2. These concessions are located in Katanga Province, DRC, approximately 175 km northwest of Lubumbashi, the provincial capital.

Construction started in late 2006 on open pit and oxide ore processing facilities designed to produce 115,000 tpa of cathode copper and over 8,000 tpa of cobalt in hydroxide. Commissioning of the copper facilities occurred at the end of the first quarter 2009, and of the cobalt hydroxide facilities at the end of the second quarter. By year end, full name plate capacities for both products were being achieved.

The first phase of production is one of several stages of development contemplated with the objective of ultimately producing in excess of 400,000 tpa of copper mining multiple deposits concession wide.

4.4.1.5.2.  Accessibility, Climate, Local Resources, Infrastructure and Physiography

The main highway, railroad, and the main power line connecting Kolwezi and Likasi with Lubumbashi pass through the concessions. Scheduled air service is available between Lubumbashi and the capital at Kinshasa, as well as from Johannesburg, South Africa and Zambia. An airstrip constructed on the concession can accommodate freight aircraft and small passenger jets. Most copper and cobalt product and bulk mine consumables are shipped primarily by truck and to an extent by rail between Tenke and ports in Durban, South Africa and Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania.

The site climate is characterized as mild rainy, sub-tropical mid-latitude with dry winters, with three seasons. The average annual rainfall is approximately 1,150 mm. Monthly average temperatures are 28°C (max); 20°C (min) in September and 22°C (max); 13°C (min) in June.

   
Annual Information Form

Page 19


Tailings facilities sufficient for the first two years have been constructed and the next tailing dam raise is in progress. The current tailings storage location is of sufficient size to handle the majority of currently proven/probable reserves. Other adjacent areas have been identified to provide life of mine storage capacity. A potential location for a future sulphide concentrator has been identified as have potential heap leach pad areas.

Electrical power is provided from the national grid. The local Nseke hydro power station is being renovated and expanded as part of the project and new local power lines have been constructed. Water from local boreholes supplements runoff water collected and the project is operated in line with a zero discharge water management philosophy.

The dominant landform is the Dipeta Syncline, an east-west trending valley approximately 15km long and 3km wide. The Dipeta River runs along the valley bottom while the Kwatebala, Tenke (formerly called Goma) and Fwaulu orebodies lie on the north-western crest of this valley. The orebodies presently form hills and ridges rising to elevations of about 1,500 m above sea level and up to 170m above adjacent valleys. The plant site elevation is 1,200m above sea level. The ore deposits lie on a surface water divide, with waters to the north flowing into the Mofya River and waters to the south flowing into the Dipeta River.

The flora of the concessions is dominated by an agricultural mosaic of croplands and fallow fields. The second most common vegetation type is miombo woodland. The third most common type of vegetation is degraded miombo woodland (miombo woodland that has been impacted by agricultural clearing activity). Copper-cobalt vegetation types occupy less than five percent of the area.

4.4.1.5.3.  History and Development Terms

The Tenke Fungurume deposits have a history dating back to at least 1917. A controlling interest in the concessions was acquired from Gécamines following a lengthy tender process. In November 1996, pursuant to a mining convention and TFM formation agreement the concessions were transferred to TFM in exchange for a series of transfer bonus payments and other significant commercial and development commitments. TF Holdings paid Gécamines the first stage of the transfer payments ($50 million) in May 1997.

In December 1998, Tenke Mining concluded an option agreement with BHP Copper Inc. (now BHP Billiton (“BHPB”)) which established a formal structure for BHPB to acquire, directly or indirectly, a controlling interest in the Tenke Fungurume Project. In December 2000, Phelps Dodge Exploration Corporation (“Phelps Dodge”), entered into an agreement with BHPB, whereby Phelps Dodge had the opportunity to earn up to one-half of BHPB’s position. On September 13, 2002, BHPB’s rights and obligations under the option agreement with the Corporation were formally transferred to Phelps Dodge.

As a result of the DRC’s new 2002 World Bank sponsored mining code and other developments resulting from the DRC conflict, an extensive renegotiation process commenced upon formation of the transitional government in 2003, which successfully concluded with amended agreements (“Amended Agreements”) in late 2005. Pursuant to the terms agreed in the Amended Agreements, the single purpose joint venture company, TF Holdings then controlled 70:30 by Phelps Dodge and Tenke Mining agreed to pay Gécamines an additional US$50 million in stages based on pre-agreed development related milestones. In accordance with shareholding agreements finalized between Phelps Dodge and Tenke Mining in January 2004, Phelps Dodge was obligated to fund $42.5 million of this balance, with Tenke Mining funding the remaining $7.5 million.

Upon the entry into force of the Amended Agreements, TF Holdings paid Gécamines $15 million leaving $35 million due according to the following milestone schedule: $5 million on a positive build decision; $10 million on commencement of commercial operations; and $10 million on each of the two successive anniversaries of commencement of commercial operations. As the deposits have been brought to the ‘exploitation stage’, TFM enjoys all rights and privileges with respect to mining activity including surface usage. A positive build decision was made in December 2006 by then operator Phelps Dodge.

Page 20


Under the terms of the Amended Agreements, TF Holdings committed to start the first phase of facilities with a minimum production level of 40,000 tpa copper and associated cobalt. In fact initial facilities were ultimately designed for a capacity of 115,000 tpa copper production. The Amended Agreements contain objectives without guarantee of reaching in excess of 130,000 tpa copper production by year 5 and 400,000 tpa by year 11 of operations, subject to a number of qualifications including DRC conditions and markets.

TFM was created effective November 1996 under the DRC Companies Act and formed for the purpose of developing the deposits of copper, cobalt and associated minerals under mining concession nº 1981 and mining concession nº 1992 granted to TFM in 1996 at Tenke and Fungurume. In early 2007 FCX acquired Phelps Dodge, which resulted in them taking over as operator and owner of a 70% interest in TF Holdings. In mid- 2007, Lundin Mining acquired Tenke Mining resulting in Lundin Mining controlling the remaining 30% of TF Holdings. This results in FCX indirectly holding 57.75% of TFM, and Lundin Mining indirectly holding 24.75% of TFM. Gécamines holds the balance of ownership – 17.5% by way of a directly held carried interest in TFM.

In accordance with the Amended Agreements, a Base Metals Royalty is payable at the rate of 2% of net sales. In addition a 1% net sales metals export duty applies. Full repatriation of funds is allowed, subject to a 10% expatriated dividends withholding tax. Income tax is payable at the rate of 30% and certain other minor taxes and duties apply as defined in TFM’s Amended Agreements consistent with the 2002 DRC Mining Code Title IX. In addition to the 15% of the Base Metals Royalty that is defined to be repatriated by the GDRC to the region of the mine, TFM has committed to a 0.3% net sales social fund, to be administered annually to benefit local communities.

As part of a GDRC initiative, approximately 60 mineral rights contracts have been subject to a review process with the Tenke Fungurume agreements being part of this process. While certain parts of the GDRC and Gécamines have proposed adjustments to portions of the TFM Amended Agreements, Lundin Mining and FCX maintain that their mineral contracts are legally binding, enforceable, not subject to unilateral change and are fair to all parties. However, Lundin Mining and FCX respect the process that the GDRC has embarked upon related to contract review and are cooperating in this dialogue.

4.4.1.5.4. Geological Setting

The Tenke Fungurume copper-cobalt deposits are typical of those that comprise the Central African Copperbelt. The Copperbelt is located in a major geological structure called the Lufilian Arc, a 500 km fold belt that stretches from Kolwezi in the southern DRC to Luanshya in Zambia. The deposits of the Tenke Fungurume district are located at the northernmost apex of the arc. The arc formed between the Angolan Plate to the southeast and Congo Plate to the northwest during the late Neoproterozic, approximately 650 to 600 million years before present (Ma). Rocks in the arc are exposed in a series of tightly folded and thrust anticlines and synclines, generally trending east-west to southeast-northwest in the southern DRC. The Tenke Fungurume group of sediment hosted copper cobalt deposits occurs near the base of a thick succession of sedimentary rocks belonging to the Katanga System of Proterozoic age (650-1050 Ma).

The older rocks of the basement complex belonging to the Kibara Supergroup, form the framework within which the Katangan sediments were deposited and consist of granitic rocks and metamorphosed sediments. Sedimentation took place in shallow intra-cratonic basins bounded by rifts. A series of cratonic events of Pan African age (650 Ma to 500 Ma) resulted in extensive deformation of these rocks. The principal tectonic event is referred to as the Lifilian Orogeny and this led to the formation of the Lufilian Arc. All of the major Zambian and Congolese copper-cobalt deposits are located along this 500 km long arcuate structure, which extends from Kolwezi in the Congo to Luanshya in Zambia. The Tenke and Fungurume deposits are located in the northernmost apex of the arc.

4.4.1.5.5. Exploration and Concession Potential

The mineral concessions have been subject to multiple phases of exploration over time. Most recently, exploration during 2009 under the direction of FCX through TFM focussed on 8 different deposits. A total of 55,000m of diamond drilling was completed in 306 individual holes.

Geophysical (IP) and seismic surveys were carried out in 2009 and will be continuing in 2010. Both exploration techniques show promising results in the detection of sulphide mineralization and deep definition of structure/stratigraphy. The bedrock drilling/sampling program which started in 2008 as a rapid and efficient exploration method in areas of overburden was continued in 2009.

Due to data and time availability, many of the known deposits have yet to be assessed with mineral resource and reserve models. The Tenke Fungurume concessions remain extensively under-explored.

4.4.1.5.6. Mineralization

The copper-cobalt mineralization is mainly associated with two dolomitic shale horizons (RSF and SDB respectively) each ranging in thickness from 5 to 15m, separated by 20m of cellular silicified dolomite (RSC).

The main economic minerals present are malachite, chrysocolla, bornite, and hetrogenite. Primary copper and cobalt mineralogy is predominately chalcocite, digenite, bornite, and carrollite. Oxidation has resulted in widespread alteration producing malachite, pseudomalachite, chrysocolla (hydrated copper silicate) and heterogenite.

The primary copper-cobalt mineral associations are homogeneous in both mineralized zones and any variations are due to the effect of oxidation and supergene enrichment. Consequently the mineral assemblages can be grouped into three main categories dependent upon the degree of alteration – oxide, mixed and sulphide zones. Dolomite and quartz are the main gangue minerals present. Dolomite or dolomitic rocks make up the bulk of the host strata. Weathering of the host rocks is normally depth related, intensity decreasing with increasing depth, producing hydrated iron oxides and silica at the expense of dolomite, which is leached and removed.

4.4.1.5.7. Drilling

The exploration and drilling history of Tenke Fungurume deposits began in 1919. UMHK explored the surface and drilled exploration core holes between 1919-1921, 1942-1951 and 1958-1968. Gécamines conducted exploration and drilling 1968-70 and 1981-1991. SMTF carried out exploration and core drilling 1971-1976. TFM carried out additional core drilling in 1997. These campaigns totalled 186,376m of drilling plus mapping, trenching and exploration adits. Exploration core drilling carried out by PD/FCX between 2006 and the end of 2009 comprised 1,574 core holes totaling circa 244,000 metres. Reverse circulation drilling was used locally to drill through unmineralized waste. The 2009 exploration drilling took place on primarily Fungurume, Fwaulu, Pumpi North, Mambilima, Mudilandima, Mwandikoma and Tenke.

4.4.1.5.8. Sampling and Analysis

Industry standard exploration drill core splitting, sampling, and density measurement protocols have been followed by Phelps Dodge and subsequently by FCX. An independent audit to review sampling activities with respect to quality assurance, quality control and sample security was completed in the first quarter 2009. In addition to drill core and drill cutting sampling, open pit grade control sampling is carried out using a trench cutting tool.

Samples are prepared on site and analysed at the mine’s assay laboratory facility. Strict QA/QC protocols are in place including placement and assaying of duplicates, blanks and check samples. Laboratory Information Management System is used to manage data.

   
Annual Information Form

Page 22


   
4.4.1.5.9. Security of Samples

Data and sample security procedures that conform to industry standards are in place. All drill core is logged and photographed and the cores and sampling splits are stored on site. These and other traceability records prevent errors of identification and ensure sample history can be followed.

4.4.1.5.10. Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve Estimates

The current mineral resources at Tenke Fungurume come from a total of 8 deposits across the concessions: Kwatebala, Tenke, Fwaulu, Mwadinkomba, Kansalawile, Fungurume, Mambilima and Pumpi North.

Mineral resources have been estimated using three dimensional modelling methods. Minesight® software has been used for database development and geological modeling. Grade estimation has been carried out using either Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) or Local Anisotropy Kriging (LAK) techniques.

Open pit optimization has been carried out on all the eight deposits listed above. Datamine NPV Scheduler was used for seven of the deposits, with Tenke using a rotated model which was evaluated using Minesight®. In each case a Lerch Grossman algorithm was used to maximize the gross value of the pit. Pits were designed with 38 degree inter-ramp slope angle, 35 degree overall slope angle and double 5m benches to 10m interval between berms. Input parameters to the open pit optimisations have been updated in 2009 and include revisions to the mine operating costs, cobalt recovery factors and the gangue acid consumption estimations.

Dilution is potentially a significant issue as mineralized zones are long, typically narrow (6m to 15m wide), faulted and folded and contacts are relatively sharp. To address this issue block dimensions have been selected at 5m x 2.5m x 2.5, the ore mining fleet uses small equipment and ore cuts broken by the surface miners are 0.625m deep. For mine planning purposes resource grades are reduced by 5% to account for anticipated grade dilution during operations.

Details of the December 2009 Resource and Reserve estimate for Tenke Fungurume are included in Schedule A attached to this AIF.

4.4.1.5.11. Mining Operations

The Tenke Fungurume Project includes the development of mining, processing and general infrastructure for exploitation of oxide ore initially from Kwatebala, supplemented by other ore bodies over time. Nominal daily mill feed of oxide ore is 8,000 tpd. Current proven/probable reserves support an initial facility life of more than 40 years of oxide ore feed. Total waste mined corresponding to the above reserves will be 645 million tonnes. Ore is mined from the open pits and trucked to stockpiles located near the crusher.

Capital investment of approximately $2.0 billion was made for the initial facilities, which includes aspects to support major future expansions. This includes a $US140 million loan to accomplish a multi-year provincial hydro power rehabilitation project to provide reliable power to the project and national grid. Total power available to the project resulting from the power loan investment under agreement with SNEL (DRC power authority) is in excess of 200 MW to support expansions, which is more than sufficient for current plans.

The latest, proven process technology is being used to extract copper and cobalt. Copper is extracted using standard SAG milling, sulphuric acid leach, solvent extraction and electrowinning to produce a 99.9% pure copper cathode. Solution from the copper SXEW plant feeds the cobalt plant where cobalt hydroxide is produced through purification and precipitation processes. Copper is marketed with guidance from FCX’s global copper marketing programme. Cobalt is sold as cobalt hydroxide under contract and on the spot market.

4.4.1.5.12. Environmental and Social Aspects

The project has been developed in accordance with Equator Principles, Voluntary Principles of Security and Human Rights, applicable World Bank/IFC standards and the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative. Development and operation is subject to a number of DRC laws, regulations, standards dealing with the protection of public health, public safety and the environment. Permits and authorizations are in place for construction and operation.

Key environmental issues addressed by the project include mitigation of damage to sensitive indigenous flora unique to highly mineralized areas of the DRC copper belt, design of the project to zero discharge objectives, and adoption of fully plastic lined process water and tailings storage impoundments. As this is the first commercial development of mining on the concessions, there are no known existing environmental liabilities.

Key social investments addressed during project development include extensive community consultation, stimulation of both direct and indirect employment – during construction, employment peaked at more than 8,000 DRC nationals and during operations, direct employment is expected in the range of 2,000 personnel. Indirect effects are expected to be responsible for more than 5,000 jobs created in the region.

Other social investments include medical, fresh water supply, education, agricultural and regional infrastructure investments in power, roads and border crossings.

4.4.2 MINE CLOSURES

Lundin Mining acquired the El Valle and Carlés gold mine in Spain, and the Vueltas del Rio mine in Honduras, as part of the acquisition of Rio Narcea. Reclamation of both properties is ongoing. Underground production ceased in July 2008 at the Storliden zinc-copper mine in northern Sweden. A rehabilitation programme is continuing in accordance with the approved closure plan.

ITEM 5 RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company’s projects are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to, those listed below. Unless the context indicates or implies otherwise, references in this section to the “Company” include the Company and its subsidiaries:

Metal Prices

Metal prices, of copper, nickel, zinc and lead are key performance drivers and fluctuations in the prices of these commodities can have a dramatic effect on the results of operations. Prices fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors beyond the Company’s control. The prices of metals are influenced by supply and demand, exchange rates, inflation rates, changes in global economies, and political, social and other factors. The supply of metals consists of a combination of new mine production, recycling of copper and lead and existing stocks held by governments, producers and consumers.

If the market prices for metals fall below the Company’s full production costs and remain at such levels for any sustained period of time, the Company may, depending on hedging practices, experience losses and may determine to discontinue mining operations or development of a project at one or more of its properties. If the prices drop significantly, the economic prospects of the mines and projects in which the Company has an interest could be significantly reduced or rendered uneconomic. Low metal prices will affect the Company’s liquidity, and if they persist for an extended period of time, the Company may have to look for other sources of cash flow to maintain liquidity until metal prices recover.

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to various counterparty risks. The Company is subject to credit risk through its trade receivables. The Company manages this risk through evaluation and monitoring process such as using the services of credit agencies. The Company transacts with credit worthy customers to minimize credit risk and if necessary, employ provisional payment arrangements and the use of letters of credit, where appropriate, but cannot always be assured of the solvency of its customers and at times will sell to parties whose credit worthiness is not determinable. Credit risk relating to derivative contracts arises from the possibility that a counterparty to an instrument with which the Company has an unrealized gain fails to settle the contracts.

Foreign Exchange Risk

The Company’s revenue from operations is received in United States dollars while most of its operating expenses will be incurred in Euro and SEK. Accordingly, foreign currency fluctuations may adversely affect the Company’s financial position and operating results. The Company does not currently engage in foreign currency hedging activities for regularly occurring operational transactions.

Derivative Instruments

The Company may, from time to time, manage exposure to fluctuations in metal prices and foreign exchange rates by entering into derivative instruments approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company does not hold or issue derivative instruments for speculation or trading purposes. These derivative instruments are marked– to–market at the end of each period and may not necessarily be indicative of the amounts the Company might pay or receive as the contracts are settled.

Reclamation Funds and Mine Closure Costs

As at December 31, 2009, the Company had $60.3 million in a number of reclamation funds that will be used to fund future site restoration and mine closure costs at the Company’s various mine sites. The Company will continue to contribute annually to these funds as required, based on an estimate of the future site restoration and mine closure costs as detailed in the closure plans. Changes in environmental laws and regulations can create uncertainty with regards to future reclamation costs and affect the funding requirements.

   
Annual Information Form

Page 25


The Company ceased production at its Galmoy mine during the first half of 2009 but resumed limited mining of ore in late 2009 for treatment at an adjacent mine. Current mining activity does not have a significant effect on closure activities which continue to be carried out.

Rehabilitation programs will be completed at the Storliden mine during 2010 following production shutdown in 2008 and the site will be subject to ongoing monitoring for several years following the completion of closure activities. The Company also has ongoing long–term monitoring programs in place associated with legacy mining operations previously carried on in Honduras and Spain under the ownership of a subsidiary of Rio Narcea Gold Mines Ltd., which was acquired by the Company in 2007.

Closing a mine can have significant impact on local communities and site remediation activities may not be supported by local stakeholders. The Company endeavors to mitigate this risk by reviewing and updating closure plans regularly with external stakeholders over the life of the mine and considering where post–mining land use for mining affected areas has potential benefits to the communities.

In addition to the immediate closure activities, including ground stabilization, infrastructure demolition and removal, top soil replacement, re–grading and re–vegetation, closed mining operations require long–term surveillance and monitoring.

Site closure plans have been developed and amounts accrued in the Company’s financial statements to provide for mine closure obligations. Future remediation costs for inactive mines are estimated at the end of each period, including ongoing care, maintenance and monitoring costs. Changes in estimates at inactive mines are reflected in earnings in the period an estimate is revised. Actual costs realized in satisfaction of mine closure obligations may vary materially from management’s estimates.

Competition

There is competition within the mining industry for the discovery and acquisition of properties considered to have commercial potential. The Company competes with other mining companies, many of which have greater financial resources than the Company, for the acquisition of mineral claims, leases and other mineral interests as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees and other personnel.

Foreign Countries and Regulatory Requirements

The Company’s operations in Portugal, Sweden, Ireland and Spain are subject to various laws and environmental regulations. The implementation of new or the modification of existing laws and regulations affecting the mining and metals industry could have a material adverse impact on the Company.

The Company has a significant investment in mining operations located in the DRC. The carrying value of this investment and the Company’s ability to advance development plans may be adversely affected by political instability and legal and economic uncertainty. The risks by which the Company’s interest in the DRC may be adversely affected include: political unrest; labour disputes; invalidation of governmental orders, permits, agreements or property rights; risk of corruption including violations under U.S. and Canadian foreign corrupt practices statutes; military repression; war; civil disturbances; criminal and terrorist actions; arbitrary changes in laws, regulations, policies, taxation, price controls and exchange controls; delays in obtaining or the inability to obtain necessary permits; opposition to mining from environmental or other non–governmental organizations; limitations on foreign ownership; limitations on the repatriation of earnings; limitations on mineral exports; and high rates of inflation and increased financing costs. These risks may limit or disrupt the Company’s projects, restrict the movement of funds or result in the deprivation of contractual rights or the taking of property by nationalization, expropriation or other means without fair compensation. Africa’s status as a developing continent may make it more difficult for the Company to obtain any required exploration, development and production financing for its projects.

There can be no assurance that industries which are deemed of national or strategic importance in countries in which the Company has operations or assets, including mineral exploration, production and development, will not be nationalized. The risk exists that further government limitations, restrictions or requirements, not presently foreseen, will be implemented. Changes in policy that alter laws regulating the mining industry could have a material adverse effect on the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company’s assets in these countries will not be subject to nationalization, requisition or confiscation, whether legitimate or not, by an authority or body.

In addition, in the event of a dispute arising from foreign operations, the Company may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts or may not be successful in subjecting foreign persons to the jurisdiction of courts in Canada. The Company also may be hindered or prevented from enforcing its rights with respect to a governmental instrumentality because of the doctrine of sovereign immunity. It is not possible for the Company to accurately predict such developments or changes in laws or policy or to what extent any such developments or changes may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations.

Mining and Processing

The Company’s business operations are subject to risks and hazards inherent in the mining industry, including, but not limited to, unanticipated variations in grade and other geological problems, water conditions, surface or underground conditions, metallurgical and other processing problems, mechanical equipment performance problems, the lack of availability of materials and equipment, the occurrence of accidents, labour force disruptions, force majeure factors, unanticipated transportation costs, and weather conditions, any of which can materially and adversely affect, among other things, the development of properties, production quantities and rates, costs and expenditures and production commencement dates.

The Company’s processing facilities are dependent upon continuous mine feed to remain in operation. Insofar as the Company’s mines may not maintain material stockpiles of ore or material in process, any significant disruption in either mine feed or processing throughput, whether due to equipment failures, adverse weather conditions, supply interruptions, labour force disruptions or other causes, may have an immediate adverse effect on results of operations of the Company.

The Company periodically reviews mining schedules, production levels and asset lives in its LOM planning for all of its operating and development properties. Significant changes in the LOM Plans can occur as a result of experience obtained in the course of carrying out mining activities, new ore discoveries, changes in mining methods and rates, process changes, investments in new equipment and technology, precious metals price assumptions, and other factors. Based on this analysis, the Company reviews its accounting estimates and in the event of an impairment may be required to write–down the carrying value of a mine or mines. This complex process continues for the economic life of every mine in which the Company has an interest.

Mine Development Risks

The Company’s ability to maintain, or increase, its annual production of zinc, silver, copper, nickel and other metals will be dependent in significant part on its ability to bring new mines into production and to expand existing mines. Although the Company utilizes the operating history of its existing mines to derive estimates of future operating costs and capital requirements, such estimates may differ materially from actual operating results at new mines or at expansions of existing mines. The economic feasibility analysis with respect to any individual project is based upon, among other things, the interpretation of geological data obtained from drill holes and other sampling techniques, feasibility studies (which derive estimates of cash operating costs based upon anticipated tonnage and grades of ore to be mined and processed), precious and base metals price assumptions, the configuration of the orebody, expected recovery rates of metals from the ore, comparable facility and equipment costs, anticipated climatic conditions, estimates of labour, productivity, royalty or other ownership requirements and other factors. Some of the Company’s development projects are also subject to the successful completion of final feasibility studies, issuance of necessary permits and other governmental approvals and receipt of adequate financing. Although the Company’s feasibility studies are generally completed with the Company’s knowledge of the operating history of similar ore bodies in the region, the actual operating results of its development projects may differ materially from those anticipated, and uncertainties related to operations are even greater in the case of development projects.

Page 27


Environmental and Other Regulatory Requirements

All phases of mining and exploration operations are subject to government regulation including regulations pertaining to environmental protection. Environmental legislation is becoming stricter, with increased fines and penalties for non–compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and heightened responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. There can be no assurance that possible future charges in environmental regulation will not adversely affect the Company’s operations. As well, environmental hazards may exist on a property in which the Company holds an interest which were caused by previous or existing owners or operators of the properties and of which the Company is not aware at present. Operations at the Company’s mines are subject to strict environmental and other regulatory requirements, including requirements relating to the production, handling and disposal of hazardous materials, pollution controls, health and safety and the protection of wildlife. The Company may be required to incur substantial capital expenditures in order to comply with these requirements. Any failure to comply with the requirements could result in substantial fines, delays in production, or the withdrawal of the Company’s mining licenses.

Government approvals and permits are required to be maintained in connection with the Company’s mining and exploration activities. Although the Company currently has all the required permits for its operations as currently conducted, there is no assurance that delays will not occur in connection with obtaining all necessary renewals of such permits for the existing operations or additional permits for any possible future changes to the Company’s operations, including any proposed capital improvement programs. Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions thereunder, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment, or remedial actions. Parties engaged in mining operations may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of the mining activities and may be liable for civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violations of applicable laws or regulations. Amendments to current laws, regulations and permitting requirements, or more stringent application of existing laws, may have a material adverse impact on the Company resulting in increased capital expenditures or production costs, reduced levels of production at producing properties or abandonment or delays in development of properties.

Mineral Resource and Reserve Estimates

The Company’s reported Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves are only estimates. No assurance can be given that the estimated Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves will be recovered or that they will be recovered at the rates estimated. Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates are based on limited sampling, and, consequently, are uncertain because the samples may not be representative. Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates may require revision (either up or down) based on actual production experience. Market fluctuations in the price of metals, as well as increased production costs or reduced recovery rates, may render certain Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves uneconomic and may ultimately result in a restatement of estimated resources and/or reserves. Moreover, short–term operating factors relating to the Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, such as the need for sequential development of ore bodies and the processing of new or different ore grades or types, may adversely affect the Company’s profitability in any particular accounting period.

Estimation of Asset Carrying Values

The Company annually undertakes a detailed review of the LOM Plans for its operating properties and an evaluation of the Company’s portfolio of development projects, exploration projects and other assets. The recoverability of the Company’s carrying values of its operating and development properties are assessed by comparing carrying values to estimated future net cash flows from each property.

Factors which may affect carrying values include, but are not limited to, metal prices, capital cost estimates, mining, processing and other operating costs, grade and metallurgical characteristics of ore, mine design and timing of production. In the event of a prolonged period of depressed prices, the Company may be required to take additional material write–downs of its operating and development properties.

Funding Requirements and Economic Volatility

The Company does not have unlimited financial resources and there is no assurance that sufficient additional funding or financing will be available to the Company or its direct and indirect subsidiaries on acceptable terms, or at all, for further exploration or development of its properties or to fulfill its obligations under any applicable agreements. Failure to obtain such additional funding could result in the delay or indefinite postponement of the exploration and development of the Company’s properties.

Lundin is a multinational company and relies on financial institutions worldwide to fund its corporate and project needs. Instability of large financial institutions may impact the ability of the Company to obtain equity or debt financing in the future and, if obtained, on terms favourable to the Company. Disruptions in the capital and credit markets as a result of uncertainty, changing or increased regulation of financial institutions, reduced alternatives or failures of significant financial institutions could adversely affect the Company’s access to the liquidity needed for the business in the longer term.

The Company’s access to funds under the Revolving Credit Facility is dependent on the ability of the financial institutions that are parties to the Facility to meet their funding commitments. Those financial institutions may not be able to meet their funding requirements if they experience shortages of capital and liquidity or if they experience excessive volumes of borrowing requests within a short period of time. Moreover, the obligations of the financial institutions under the Revolving Credit Facility are several and not joint and, as a result, a funding default by one or more institutions does not need to be made up by the others. Such disruptions could require the Company to take measures to conserve cash until the markets stabilize or until alternative credit arrangements or other funding for the Company’s business needs can be arranged.

Uninsurable Risks

Exploration, development and production operations on mineral properties involve numerous risks, including unexpected or unusual geological operating conditions, rock bursts, cave–ins, fires, floods, earthquakes and other environmental occurrences, as well as political and social instability. It is not always possible to obtain insurance against all such risks and the Company may decide not to insure against certain risks because of high premiums or other reasons. Should such liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate any further profitability and result in increasing costs and a decline in the value of the securities of the Company. The Company does not maintain insurance against political risks.

No Assurance of Titles or Boundaries

Although the Company has investigated the right to explore and exploit its various properties and obtained records from government offices with respect to all of the mineral claims comprising its properties, this should not be construed as a guarantee of title. Other parties may dispute the title to a property or the property may be subject to prior unregistered agreements and transfers or land claims by aboriginal, native, or indigenous peoples. The title may be affected by undetected encumbrances or defects or governmental actions. The Company has not conducted surveys of all of its properties and the precise area and location of claims or the properties may be challenged.

Partner in the Tenke Fungurume Project

The Company’s funding partner and the operator at the Tenke Fungurume copper/cobalt project is FCX. There may be risks associated with an operating partner, including its financial condition or the making of less than optimal operating decisions, of which the Company is not aware and which could adversely affect the Company’s financial position and financial results.

Tax

The Company runs its business in different countries and strives to run its business in as tax efficient a manner as possible. The tax systems in certain of these countries are complicated and subject to changes. By this reason, future negative effects on the result of the Company due to changes in tax regulations cannot be excluded. Repatriation of earnings to Canada from other countries may be subject to withholding taxes. The Company has no control over the withholding tax rates in the countries where the operations are carried out.

Employee Relations

A prolonged labour disruption at any of the Company’s mining operations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to achieve its objectives with respect to such properties and its operations as a whole.

Infrastructure

Mining, processing, development and exploration activities depend, to one degree or another, on adequate infrastructure. Reliable roads, bridges and power and water supplies are important determinants which affect capital and operating costs. Unusual or infrequent weather phenomena, sabotage or government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of such infrastructure could adversely affect the activities and profitability of the Company.

During recent years, the water supply has been the object of political debate between the region in which Aguablanca operates and the neighbouring region. The Company is continuing to advance its application with central and regional authorities to obtain all of the water licences required to satisfy all of its supply requirements.

Key Personnel

The Company is depending on a relatively small number of key employees, the loss of any of whom could have an adverse effect on the Company. The Company does not have key person insurance on these individuals.

Share Price Volatility

In recent years, the securities markets have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies, particularly those considered to be development stage companies, has experienced wide fluctuations which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. There can be no assurance that such fluctuations will not affect the price of the Company’s securities.

ITEM 6 DESCRIPTION OF SHARE CAPITAL


6.1 General Description of Capital Structure

Corporate Cease Trade Orders or Bankruptcies

Except as noted below, no director, officer of the Company, or shareholder holding a sufficient number of shares of the Company to materially affect control of the Company, is, or within the ten years before the date of this Annual Information Form has been, a director or officer of any other corporation that, while that person was acting in that capacity:

  (a)

was the subject of a cease trade or similar order, or an order that denied such corporation access to any exemptions under Canadian securities legislation, for a period of more than 30 consecutive days; or

   
  (b)

became bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or was subject to or instituted any proceeding, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver–manager or trustee appointed to hold the assets of such corporation.

Messrs. Rand and Edgar were directors of New West Energy Services Inc. (formerly Lexacal Investment Corp.) (TSX– V) when, on September 5, 2006, a cease trade order was issued against that company by the British Columbia Securities Commission for failure to file its financial statements within the prescribed time. The default was rectified and the order was rescinded on November 9, 2006.

Mr. Benner was a director of Tahera Diamond Corporation (TAH–TSX) (“Tahera”) which, on January 16, 2008, was granted creditor protection by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice under the Companies’ Creditor Arrangement Act (“CCAA”). Mr. Benner resigned as a director of Tahera on September 29, 2008. Pursuant to a number of extensions, Tahera remained under CCAA protection and was sold to a third party.

Ms. Inkster was Vice President, Finance of GBS Gold International Inc. (“GBS”) from September 2007 to June 2008. On September 15, 2008, GBS put its Australian group of subsidiaries into voluntary liquidation proceedings. In March 2009, GBS announced that it had agreed to transfer its remaining valued assets to the secured promissory noteholders pursuant to the terms of a note indenture and general security deed entered into on May 27, 2008. The shares of GBS have been suspended from trading on the NEX board and it has effectively ceased business.

The foregoing information, not being within the knowledge of the Company, has been furnished by the respective directors, officers and any control shareholder of the Company individually.

No director, officer of the Company, or shareholder holding a sufficient number of shares of the Company to materially affect control of the Company, has been the subject of any penalties or sanctions imposed by a court relating to Canadian securities legislation or by a Canadian securities regulatory authority or has entered into a settlement agreement with a Canadian securities regulatory authority, or been subject to any other penalties or sanctions imposed by a court or regulatory body that would be likely to be considered important to a reasonable investor in making an investment decision.

During the ten years preceding the date of this Annual Information Form, no director, officer or shareholder holding a sufficient number of shares of the Company to affect materially the control of the Company, or a personal holding company of any such person, has become bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, or was subject to or instituted any proceeding, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver–manager or trustee appointed to hold his or her assets.

8.5

Conflicts of Interest

The Company’s directors and officers may serve as directors or officers of other companies or have significant shareholdings in other resource companies and, to the extent that such other companies may participate in ventures in which the Company may participate, the directors of the Company may have a conflict of interest in negotiating and concluding terms respecting the extent of such participation. In the event that such a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of the Company’s directors, a director who has such a conflict will abstain from voting for or against the approval of such participation or the terms of such participation. From time to time, several companies may participate in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties, thereby allowing for their participation in larger programs, the involvement in a greater number of programs or a reduction in financial exposure in respect of any one program. It may also occur that a particular company will assign all or a portion of its interest in a particular program to another of these companies due to the financial position of the company making the assignment. In accordance with the laws of Canada, the directors or the Company are required to act honestly, in good faith and in the best interests of the Company. In determining whether or not the Company will participate in a particular program and the interest therein to be acquired by it, the directors will primarily consider the degree of risk to which the Company may be exposed and the financial position at that time.

The directors and officers of the Company are aware of the existence of laws governing the accountability of directors and officers for corporate opportunity and requiring disclosure by the directors of conflicts of interest and the Company will rely upon such laws in respect of any directors’ and officers’ conflicts of interest or in respect of any breaches of duty by any of its directors and officers. All such conflicts will be disclosed by such directors or officers in accordance with the Canada Business Corporations Act and they will govern themselves in respect thereof to the best of their ability in accordance with the obligations imposed upon them by law. Other than as disclosed above, the directors and officers of the Company are not aware of any such conflicts of interest in any existing or contemplated contracts with or transactions involving the Company.

Credit Agreement dated May 28, 2007 and First Amending Agreement and Second Amending Agreement and Waiver dated May 15, 2008 and March 6, 2009, respectively, among the Company and the Bank of Nova Scotia et al, pursuant to which the Company secured a five–year $225 million non–revolving and a $575 million revolving credit facility for general corporate purposes collateralized by shares owned by the Company in its subsidiaries. These loan facilities were used in part to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rio Narcea Gold Mines, Ltd. (“Rio Narcea”).
