Lundin Mining is a Canadian mining and exploration company with a focus 
in Europe. The Company is one of the world's leading producers of zinc. 
The main asset of Lundin Mining is the Zinkgruvan mine, located about 
200 kilometers southwest of Stockholm, Sweden. The mine has been 
producing zinc, lead and silver on a continuous basis since 1857. 
Zinkgruvan has consistently ranked in the lowest cost quartile among 
zinc mines in the world. In the beginning of 2005, Lundin Mining 
acquired the remaining outstanding shares of North Atlantic Natural 
Resources AB (NAN). NAN's primary asset is the Storliden copper and zinc 
mine in the Skellefte mining district of northern Sweden, which has been 
in production since 2002. By acquiring ARCON International Resources 
P.l.c. of Ireland, Lundin Mining added the Galmoy zinc-lead mine and an 
extensive exploration acreage in the county of Kilkenny, Ireland to it's 
existing portfolio. Lundin Mining also holds a large copper/gold 
exploration project in the prolific Norrbotten mining district in 
northern Sweden as well as exploration permits covering numerous 
exploration targets in the historical Skellefte mining district of 
northern Sweden.
