Tata Steel, through its subsidiary, Tata Steel Global Minerals Holdings has entered into Joint Venture Agreement on 6th November 2009 with New Millennium Capital Corp. (“NML”) (TSX-V: NML) and LabMag Limited Partnership (through its General Partner) for development of the Direct Shipment Ore (DSO) Project in Canada. The feasibility study for the DSO Project is underway based upon which Tata Steel may make its investment decision within 180 days from delivery of feasibility to Tata Steel. The JVA envisages formation of a Joint Venture Company (JVC) upon closing of the transaction subsequent to a notice of Joint Venture Investment being delivered to NML by Tata Steel. On the decision to develop, Tata Steel will arrange to fund 100% of the project cost upto C$300 million for 80% equity stake in the joint venture company with NML holding a 20% stake.

DSO Project contains, based on historical estimates that are not in compliance with NI 43-101, a resource of about 100 million tonnes of direct shipping quality ore. NML expects to produce 4 million tonne per annum of iron ore products from the DSO Project. Subject to completion of a positive feasibility study, regulatory approvals and project financing, the DSO Project is expected to start initial production in Q2 of 2011. Tata Steel will have 100% offtake rights for the production from the project.

H M Nerurkar Managing Director, Tata Steel said, “Tata Steel supports New Millennium's efforts to advance the DSO Project to production. We are now awaiting the Feasibility Study which will reflect a technically feasible and financially viable project.”

Robert Martin, New Millennium President and CEO, said, “With this joint venture agreement we are closer to seeing the DSO Project enter production and this will help advance the DSO Project when final approval is made. We are working closely with Tata technical personnel, both in Canada and India, to complete all work that is expected to support a positive project decision. New Millennium's project complements Tata Steel’s strategy to increase self sufficiency in raw materials with supplies from captive sources for their wholly owned UK and European subsidiary.”
