FNX Mining Company Inc. (TSX:FNX) ("FNX" or "the Company") reports unaudited
operating and financial results for the fourth quarter and the full year 2009.
The key operating and financial results for 2009 and comparable numbers for 2008
are shown in Table 1 and the unaudited financial statements are attached.


The Company recorded consolidated net earnings for the fourth quarter of $32.1
million ($0.31 per share) and a 2009 full year net loss of $40.1 million ($0.44
per share). Adjusting the 2009 full year results for previously announced 2009
non-cash write downs produces an adjusted net income of $49.1 for the year
($0.54 per share). The consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter and
2009 full year was $40.0 million and $69.2 million respectively.


Consolidated revenues in the fourth quarter were $108.6 million and were $238.2
million for the 2009 full year. Production from the Company's 100%-owned Sudbury
Mining Operations generated revenues of $94.9 million in the fourth quarter and
$185.2 million for the 2009 full year. Consolidated cash flow from operating
activities before changes in non-cash working capital for the fourth quarter and
2009 full year was 29.7 million ($0.29 per share) and $41.5 million ($0.46 per
share) respectively and, after changes in non-cash working capital, was ($1.1
million) and $22.5 million respectively. The lower than normal cash flows were a
result of shutdowns at the Company's third party processing facilities, which
resulted in delaying deliveries of third quarter ore to the fourth quarter and
the subsequent delay of cash receipts for ore shipped in the second half of 2009
until the first half of 2010. This resulted in an accounts receivable of $85.7
million compared to $59.3 million in 2008 for the same period.


Terry MacGibbon, Chairman and CEO of FNX, stated that, "The Company started 2009
in a survival mode but through the hard work and dedication of its employees and
improved commodity prices turned it into a very successful and profitable year.
During 2009, the Company strengthened its balance sheet, met or exceeded
guidance and advanced development of its high grade Levack Footwall Deposit
("LFD") toward scheduled commencement of production in mid-2010. The Company
also changed its strategy from survival to growth with a mid-year
re-vitalization and significant increase in its exploration efforts, which
resulted in a promising discovery at the Victoria Property."


Mr. MacGibbon continued, "FNX's 2009 operating plan drastically reduced capital
expenditures, conserved cash and focused on copper-precious metal production. In
addition, disruptions at the Company's custom processor's Sudbury operations
created challenges to the 2009 operating plan. In spite of these challenges, FNX
met or exceeded its 2009 metal production targets while simultaneously improving
our safety and environmental performance. Going forward we expect the Company to
significantly increase its payable metal production levels with the addition of
high margin production from the high grade Cu-Ni-precious metal rich LFD."


The cost to produce a pound of copper, net of by-product credits, for the 2009
full year was US$1.01, compared to US$1.15 for 2008. The average minesite cash
revenue per ton of ore shipped for the fourth quarter and 2009 full year were
$284 and $298 respectively, while the average minesite cash operating costs per
ton of ore shipped were $146 and $160 respectively, yielding an average minesite
cash operating margin per ton shipped of $138 and $138 respectively.


The cash balance increased during 2009, primarily as a result of $144.9 million
received from a bought-deal financing that closed in September 2009. Cash and
cash equivalents and working capital as at December 31, 2009 were $238.6 million
and $262.3 million respectively, compared to $129.6 million and $130.1 million
respectively as at December 31, 2008. Total assets were $974.9 million as at
December 31, 2009, compared to $853.9 million at the end of 2008. The Company
continues to have zero debt.


The Company's 2010 operating forecast guidance was provided in a December 23,
2009 news release.

FNX shipped a total of 359,896 tons in the fourth quarter of 2009, resulting in
a net reduction in third quarter inventories by165,000 tons. Payable metals for
the 2009 fourth quarter were 16.5 million pounds of copper, 1.7 million pounds
of nickel and 34,150 ounces of platinum, palladium and gold. Ore inventories as
at December 31, 2009 were 10,858 tons, compared to 176,194 tons at the end of
the third quarter of 2009. The total ore shipped in 2009 full year was 666,265
tons of primarily copper-precious metal ore: 347,842 tons from the Podolsky Mine
and 318,423 tons from the Levack Complex. This compares to the 2009 full year
budget of 679,000 tons and 2008 full year ore shipments of 1,255,987 tons. The
decline in the total tons of ore shipped from 2008 to 2009 resulted from the
suspension of all primary nickel production at the end of 2008. Tables 2 and 3
show a summary of the Podolsky Mine and Levack Complex production data.

Payable metals produced in 2009 full year totaled 34.5 million pounds of copper,
4.4 million pounds of nickel and 59,094 ounces of platinum, palladium and gold.
In spite of a very challenging 2009, payable metal production essentially met or
exceeded the original 2009 guidance of 35.2 million pounds of copper, 3.7
million pounds of nickel and 58,000 ounces of precious metals recovered from
slightly fewer tons of ore shipped.


Production totals for 2009 exclude the fourth quarter shipment of 3,445 tons of
LFD pre-production, development ore from the metallurgical sample taken in 2008,
yielding 0.5 million pounds of copper, 0.1 million pounds of nickel and 540
ounces of precious metals. The value of this pre-production, development LFD ore
was credited to the LFD capital.


The 2009 full year capital expenditures totaled $64.2 million, compared to
$167.7 million in 2008 and were $6.0 million less than the 2009 budget of $70.2
million. The 2009 capital expenditures are detailed in Table 4. The Company
incurred $6.9 million of Canadian Exploration Expenditures ("CEE") of the total
$15.0 million raised from the flow-through common share issuance, which amount
is included in the 2009 capital expenditures.

Sudbury Operations and Exploration in 2009 had a record low Total Medical Injury
Frequency Rate ("TMIFR") of 5.03 per every 200,000 hours worked, compared to
8.00 in 2008 full year. FNX realized a considerable improvement in its
environmental performance in 2009. The water quality issues experienced in 2008
concerning ammonia were eliminated in 2009 through enhancements to the
environmental management system and process changes in the Podolsky water
treatment plant.


Development

Development of the LFD remained the highest corporate priority in 2009, which
led to the decision during the year to reduce pre-production development ore
production to ensure uninterrupted development of the LFD. As a result of this
decision, total development footage related to the LFD was 7,987 ft in 2009,
which was 117% of the footage budgeted in the original development plan for
2009. By the end of 2009, the main access ramp for the LFD had reached the 3800
Level and was slightly ahead of schedule. The main LFD access ramp is scheduled
to reach the 4000 Level crosscut from Xstrata's Craig Mine by the second quarter
of 2010. The main LFD access ramp will continue to be driven deeper throughout
2010 in order to further access the LFD at depth and to provide drill platforms
for reserve and resource definition.


Development at the Podolsky Mine continued to focus on internal connection of
the main access ramp to facilitate future stope sequencing and operational
flexibility. The main access ramp was completed late in 2009, as planned. Total
development advance at the Podolsky Mine in 2009 was 5,304 ft.


At the McCreedy West Mine, the 2009 development plan was completed as scheduled
for a total of 3,012 ft. The 2009 development plan focused on the PM Deposit to
support future production.


Exploration

The original reduced exploration budget for 2009 received a significant boost
from a $15.0 million flow-through share financing completed in April 2009.
Approximately $6.9 million in flow-through funds were spent in 2009 and the
balance of $8.1 million is budgeted for 2010. The initial flow-through
expenditures in 2009 focused on the Victoria Property, which resulted in the
announcement in January 2010 of the discovery of multiple Offset Dyke deposits.
There are currently five surface drill rigs deployed at Victoria engaged in
expanding the new discovery and targeting several additional untested downhole
geophysical anomalies.


In 2009, exploration drilling totaled 84,969 ft in 28 completed holes and five
holes in progress. This does not include 93,532 ft completed in 2009 at the LFD,
59,994 ft at the Podolsky Mine and 70,862 ft at the McCreedy West Mine to
support production planning and expand reserves and resources. 


The non-production exploration expenditures for 2009 focused on the Victoria
Offset Dyke targets and tested the footwall potential at both the Podolsky and
Falconbridge Footwall properties. Current exploration plans for 2010 include
extensive drilling at the Victoria, Podolsky and Falconbridge Footwall
properties and also include drill programs at the Kirkwood Property and the
Nickel Lake joint venture located on the Foy Offset Dyke. The total
non-production exploration budget for 2010 is approximately $16 million.


DMC Mining Services

Operating revenues for DMC in 2009 totaled $53.0 million, which generated a net
loss of $3.6 million, compared to revenues of $133.1 million and a net loss of
$18.1 million in the 2008 full year. DMC had a cash operating income and net
operating cash flow for 2009 of $3.1 million and $0.6 million respectively,
compared to $4.1 million and $8.5 million for fiscal 2008. As at December 31,
2009 cash and cash equivalents and working capital were $8.7 million and $14.3
million, respectively. 


In spite of DMC's US Division completing its third consecutive year without a
lost time injury, DMC's Total Medical Injury Frequency Rate in 2009 climbed to
3.72 from 2.32 in 2008 per every 200,000 hours worked. 


The mining contracting business in 2009 faced severe challenges in the wake of
the global credit crisis and DMC positioned itself to manage in the downturn.
There was a modest recovery underway in the last part of 2009 and the US portion
of the business was profitable during the year. At the end of 2009, DMC had a
$26.9 million work backlog and was bidding on several large, long term contracts
in North America. Both the number and size of the projects DMC is currently
being asked to bid has improved going into 2010. The DMC forecast calls for a
return to modest profitability in 2010.


Investments 

Investments totaled $16.7 million at December 31, 2009, an increase from the
$4.0 million at December 31, 2008. 


FNX accounts for its investment in Gold Wheaton using the equity method and is,
therefore, required to include in earnings FNX's share of Gold Wheaton's
earnings or loss for the period and the Company's investment therein is adjusted
by an equivalent amount. For the quarter ended December 31, 2009, FNX's 25%
share of the earnings of its equity investee, Gold Wheaton, was $0.7 million,
and for the full year 2009, was a loss of less than $0.1 million. At December
31, 2009 the market value of FNX's 360,000,000 Gold Wheaton shares was
approximately $131.4 million. The carrying value of FNX's equity investment in
Gold Wheaton totaled $143.0 million at December 31, 2009, including $46.9
million representing the carrying value of the Gold Wheaton note receivable. 


Subsequent to year end, Gold Wheaton announced on February 2, 2010 the
consolidation of its common shares on a one for ten basis. The consolidation was
effective February 4, 2010 and resulted in FNX owning 36 million common shares
in Gold Wheaton with a market price of $2.43 per common share on February 4,
2010.


Share Capital and Warrants 

During the fourth quarter of 2009, share capital and warrants increased by less
than $0.1 million as a result of the exercise of 3,000 stock options. Year to
date share capital increased by $153.3 million as a result of the equity bought
deal which closed on September 9, 2009, the exercise of 15,500 stock options and
the issuance of 2,173,914 flow-through shares in April. 


As at December 31, 2009, outstanding shares were 102,016,191 and stock options
to purchase 3,552,667 common shares at a weighted average price of $13.45 per
share were outstanding. Including 332,959 outstanding deferred share units, the
fully diluted share total was 105,901,817 as at December 31, 2009.
