Reference is made to Nordic Mining ASA's ("Nordic Mining" or the "Company")
stock exchange release on 27 October 2022 regarding the financing of the Engebø
Rutile and Garnet Project ("Engebø Project").

Financing status:

Nordic Mining has successfully secured around USD 211 million in financing for
the Engebø Project, including around USD 19 million in equity from strategic
rutile offtake partner Iwatani Corporation, USD 55 million investment
conditionally agreed from leading mining investment firm Orion Resource
Partners, USD 90 million in a senior secured bond that was successfully raised
in November 2022, from an extensive list of domestic and international long-only
credit funds and mining specialists, and around USD 47 million from the sale of
the shares in Keliber Oy. This covers around 76% of the full project financing
package of USD 277 million, which will include both a contingency of around USD
25 million and a project reserve of USD 30 million.

Nordic Mining has after the above-mentioned financing entered into a binding
garnet offtake agreement with a leading distributor of industrial abrasives,
securing  the committed sale of up to all minerals for the first 5 years of
production, materially de-risking the market risk and satisfying all offtake
conditions related to the financing agreements for the Engebø Project. For more
information, see press release dated 16 January 2023.

In order to fully finance the Project, and satisfy relevant financing
conditions, Nordic Mining aim to raise the remaining USD 66 million (or more) in
equity.

Remaining Equity Raise - Private Placement:

Nordic Mining has since providing the latest funding update in connection with
the 3Q results on 8[ ]November 2022, actively engaged in discussions with
industrial, dedicated natural resources funds, and other potential equity
investors.

The Company has received positive feedback and will over the coming weeks engage
more closely with existing and new financial investors to define the specific
terms of a contemplated Private Placement of the NOK equivalent of USD 66
million.
