THIS NEWS RELEASE IS NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES SERVICES OR FOR
DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES.
Central Iron Ore Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:CIO) ("CIO" or "the Company") is pleased to
announce that diamond drilling has now been completed at the Walling Rock
Project, which is a part of the Company's Perinvale South Iron Ore Hub in
Western Australia. The Company drilled two holes in this programme.
The aim of drilling was to provide the Company with samples for initial
metallurgical test-work for this project. The test-work is aimed at prioritising
the various options for upgrading the magnetite ore by a combination of magnetic
separation and screening. Results from this test-work are anticipated in the
first quarter of 2013.
Yilgarn Iron Ore Project Area
The Company now has a total of 16 iron ore tenements, covering 1,594km2, located
within the Yilgarn Iron Ore Province ("Yilgarn IOP") in Western Australia, of
which ten tenements are granted and six tenements are pending applications. The
Yilgarn IOP is considered highly prospective given its history of large-scale
iron ore production, with the Cliffs Natural Resources Ltd-owned Koolyanobbing
operation (formerly operated by Portman Limited) currently producing at a rate
of approximately 8Mtpa of Direct Shipping Ore ("DSO"). The Yilgarn IOP is
increasingly being recognised as an attractive location for the development of
iron ore projects, given its proximity to rail and access to ports.
