TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 11/21/12 -- Labrador Iron Mines Holdings Limited ("LIM" or the "Company") (TSX: LIM) is pleased to announce the appointment of Richard Pinkerton as Chief Financial Officer.


Mr. Pinkerton is a Chartered Accountant and has been Vice President Finance of LIM since 2010.

About Labrador Iron Mines Holdings Limited (LIM)


Labrador Iron Mines (LIM) is Canada's newest iron ore producer with a portfolio of direct shipping (DSO) iron ore operations and projects located in the prolific Labrador Trough. Initial production commenced at the James Mine in June 2011, with the sale of 386,000 dry tonnes of iron ore recorded in the first start-up year.
