Talvivaara Mining Company Plc. Board of Directors Organizational Meeting 2012

The Chairman and the Deputy Chairman of the Board of Directors

Talvivaara Mining Company Plc ("Talvivaara" or the "Company") notes that Talvivaara's Board of Directors held its organizational meeting on 26 April 2012. Having consulted Talvivaara's major shareholders in advance as required by the UK Corporate Governance Code, the Board of Directors elected the former CEO of the Company Mr. Pekka Perä as Chairman of the Board of Directors. Whilst the Board of Directors recognizes that a Chief Executive should go on to be chairman of the same company only in exceptional cases, the Board considers that retaining Mr. Perä's continuing and close involvement in the Company as an Executive Chairman is justified as Mr. Perä is the founder and a major shareholder of the Company and as he has extensive experience and knowledge of Talvivaara's operations.

Mr. D. Graham Titcombe was elected as the Deputy Chairman (Senior Independent Director).
