Reference is made to the stock exchange notice from Nordic Mining ASA ("Nordic
Mining") on 4 April 2023 relating to the hearing by the Supreme Court of the
appeal by Artic Mineral Resources ("AMR") on the ruling from Borgarting Court of
Appeal.
The Attorney General of Norway has confirmed to the Supreme Court that the
Norwegian state will support Nordic Rutile AS ("NRU") and participate in the
Supreme Court proceedings handling the appeal by AMR versus NRU. The hearing is
tentatively scheduled to take place late October 2023.
The Oslo District Court and the Borgarting Court of Appeal both ruled in favour
of NRU and concluded that AMR shall pay NRU's legal expenses. The court rulings
were in line with the operating licence granted by the Ministry of Trade,
Industry and Fisheries in May 2022.
NRU maintain that AMR's claims have no merit and will continue to defend the
case rigorously and is confident that the ruling from the Supreme Court will be
in NRU's favour, i.e. in line with the previous rulings.
