Release by Talvivaara Mining Company's Board of Directors


The Talvivaara Mining Company Plc ("Talvivaara" or the "Company") Board of
Directors is grateful for the ongoing tireless efforts of the Company's
management, personnel and numerous external professionals to stem the
unfortunate gypsum pond leakage which started on 4 November and to minimize its
environmental effects.

In its strategy Talvivaara has defined that it aims at becoming a leader in
sustainable mining practices. The development towards this goal has progressed
and management has reached many important milestones but a lot of work remains
to be done. The operative management has the full support of the Board of
Directors and the Board aims to take any measures to assist management in
further implementing the Company's strategy.

However, to ensure that neither exceptional weather conditions nor any other
possible occasions will cause similar problems in the future, the Board of
Directors has decided to establish a committee to investigate the circumstances
and reasons, which led to this unfortunate incident. As part of its work, this
committee will also aim at ensuring that the measures taken will under all
circumstances be appropriate and sufficient.

The committee will be chaired by the Company's independent non-executive
director Mr. Tapani Järvinen and other members of the committee will include
another independent non-executive director of the Company Ms. Kirsi Sormunen.
Other leading independent experts from Finland and abroad will be appointed
shortly. The Board of Directors will report on the progress of the committee's
work in due course.

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Talvivaara Mining Company Plc.
