Lundin Mining Announces Closing of Acquisition of Eagle Mine and Construction Ramp-Up
TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwired - July 17, 2013) - Lundin Mining Corporation (TSX:LUN)(OMX:LUMI) ("Lundin Mining" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the closing of the acquisition of the high grade Eagle nickel/copper mine from Rio Tinto Nickel Company, a subsidiary of Rio Tinto plc ("Rio Tinto"), previously announced on June 12, 2013.
Total cash consideration paid at closing by the Company was approximately US$315 million, consisting of a US$250 million purchase amount plus project expenditures from January 1, 2013 until transaction closing of US$65 million, subject to minor adjustments to reflect actual project expenses. The acquisition has been entirely funded from Lundin Mining's current net cash balance and its existing $350 million revolving credit facility. The purchase price reflects project expenditures from Jan 1, 2013 to closing being lower than previously anticipated due to an earlier than expected closing date.
Paul Conibear, President and CEO. commented, "We are very pleased to close the acquisition of this high-quality asset early, and especially pleased to see the high level of activity on site already as construction ramps up."
Eagle Mine - Project Status Update
The Eagle Mine is located in Marquette County in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Project construction is more than 50% complete with initial production expected to commence in Q4 2014.
The Company is pleased to announce that project ramp-up is proceeding well with construction on the mill and mine sites. The following highlights summarize the latest project developments:
Earthworks, concrete installation and steel erection are underway at the mill site. The contract for the mine site coarse ore storage has been awarded and the contractor mobilized.
All vendors are mobilized and new delivery dates are being finalized. Most equipment has been ordered and is expected to be delivered to site prior to year end.
Approximately 100 construction personnel are now on site, a peak of approximately 350 construction personnel is expected later this year.
Eagle has approximately 70 people on staff and recruiting is underway to support the objective of ramping up to approximately 220 staff in Q3 2014.
Opportunities for schedule acceleration are being explored.
As previously announced, the Company expects to file its National Instrument 43-101 compliant technical report by July 26, 2013.
Lundin Mining Corporation is a diversified base metals mining company with operations and projects in Portugal, Sweden, Spain and the U.S.A producing copper, zinc, lead and nickel. In addition, Lundin Mining holds a 24% equity stake in the world-class Tenke Fungurume copper/cobalt mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo and in the Freeport Cobalt Oy business, which includes the cobalt refinery located in Kokkola, Finland.

Equilibrium Contracts and Firm-sponsored Training
Pontus Rendahl
This paper studies a model of firm-sponsored investments in general human capital. When institutional settings permit simple contractual arrangements that are consistent with at-will employment, firms invest in a worker's general skills. And when market forces discipline contracts, the equilibrium level of training intimately relates to any match-specific component of surplus, such as mobility costs. If these relation-specific components are sufficiently large, all externalities may be internalized, and training attains the social optimum. In marked contrast to the existing literature, these predictions do not rely on complementarities between training and rents (e.g. "wage-compression"), and they are independent of the distribution of profits and wages.

This dermatomes poster by the Anatomical Chart Company defines the human dermatomes in beautiful colour illustrations. Dermatomes provide a way to map the approximate areas of skin on the body that is supplied by nerves from a single spinal root.
All important structures are numbered and/or labelled, making this detailed dermatomes chart is ideal for physiotherapy or other health students learning anatomy. The chart may also be useful for explaining the concept of dermatomes to patients.
Lamination protects the chart from use and sunlight, and also allows for the chart to be annotacted using washable marker pens. The Dermatomes Anatomical Chart is also available in a paper version.
